If you only had these two choices, which would you do?

[Floogeldy]

Poll question: If you only had these two choices, which would you do?

Be honest!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

1. It was tough but I voted for the lottery.

[Floogeldy]

3. Oh. So you took your time and thought about it.

I respect that.

B-)

[JVS]

2. If you win the lotto you can hunt deer with shovels for the rest of your..

life.

[KitchenWitch]

5. true enough

Give a man a shovel, he can deer hunt for one day, give a man 20 million USD, he can do whatever he damn well pleases for a long time.

[JVS]

6. Truer words have not been posted

[Floogeldy]

14. I'll bet you never thought you would ever type that sentence!

B-)

[KitchenWitch]

17. You are absolutely right

and I am laughing so hard right now. :rofl:

[lenidog]

7. If you win 20 million you can buy an awful lot of deer rifles

[Floogeldy]

9. I forgot to tell you something

If you vote for the $20 million lottery option, deer will come hunting for you, with a shovel!

:tinfoilhat:

[JVS]

15. Deer are too clumsy to use shovels.

A risk I'm willing to take

[ghostsofgiants]

10. Fuck yes!

That would be my plan.

[Tsiyu]

4. I can't answer that question

until I know what kind of shovel

[JVS]

8. A STEAMSHOVEL!

Mike Mulligan World Safari!

[Tsiyu]

24. If I can drive that, screw the lottery n/t

[lenidog]

12. A coal shovel

Its nice and long and has a wide blade (?)



BTW what is the word for the digging part of a shovel?

[KitchenWitch]

18. Spade

[Tsiyu]

23. Did you say Spades!

I haven't played that in years. Oops, this is a thread about killing meat, not booking tricks...

[KitchenWitch]

25. turning tricks???

oh we were not talking about prostitution LOL

[Tsiyu]

26. I left the door so wide open didn't I?

But I figured one of the Warlocks would beat you to it:P

[KitchenWitch]

28. I could never resist walking through a wide open door

gets me into a lot of trouble sometimes.

[Tsiyu]

29. Oh, yeah

I'm a little more hermit-like these days, except on DU where they can only beat you up virtually....

[KitchenWitch]

30. yeah

it is fairly safe online to walk through all open doors...

[Tsiyu]

22. the scoop?

the diggy part?

[yvr girl]

11. Hunting has zero appeal to me

It's a lot of work to drag a deer out of the forest.

[lenidog]

13. Well with 20 million you can buy a farm and raise deer

so not stomping through the woods.

[jukes]

21. you're not thinking it through, yvr

if you hunt the hunters, you don't have to pack them out; just nail them to the tree to discourage other losers who kill defenseless animals because they can't get laid.

[Robeson]

16. Gee... Thats tough. But, I think I'll take the 20 million.....

...and use about 5 million to take out anti-NRA and anti-hunting ads.

With the rest, I'll just send you guys a postcard from my new home...in Europe..
:-)

[BikeWriter]

19. How much time do we have to decide?

[Jamastiene]

20. $20 mil or smather myself with

deer piss and traipse off into the woods with only a shovel to protect myself from a horny deer??? Hmmm, lemme think... Do I really need to stop and think about that one? I'll take the $20 mil, LOL. :P

[BlueIris]

27. After reading MSN's series on the travails of winning the lottery,

I know that especially people who win the higher volume prizes don't have the easy time of it one might expect. For starters, the IRS likes to take lottery winners out for a walk, at both the state and federal level. Also, managing 7.3+ million dollars is harder than it looks, particularly if you've never had anything like that amount of wealth before, don't know anything about what constitutes good, responsible fiscal advice and have issues saying "no" to the twelve thousand people who will start hustling you after the news reports on your victory.

Still, I don't like hunting, or shovels, so, what could I do. At least I feel prepared to deal with the "20" million.
