Oh, I am so excited! And I was so "supriced". I've already placed orders for a U-87, a new computer(no, that's cumputer), contracted for a new studio build, and taken a second mortgage on my house as an advance of this wonderful windfall! Boy, I'll bet those agents will fall over themselves when I invite them to meet me for lunch at the Four Seasons!
Brett


P.S. - Some numbers/info in the above changed to protect my winnings.

Well, awright, awright...I just need to mortgage another property for some "bridge" cash until they send me my winnings. I'll swing by and pick you up...let's go in style, bruttha. And, don't forget to bring your credit cards, too...


...hmmm, I always wondered what it would be like to be treated like a "whale"...

Brett,
I've received various "winner notifications" through email, (not this one) but they've turned out to be spoofs. Hope this one's for real! And if it is, congrats!

Brett,
You're on! Can you get the Hummer limo? I want to be sure we waste the maximum amount of gas getting there.

I've never stayed in the Bellagio before. Good choice!
