A few months ago a 55 year old woman was about to go into the Virginia Lottery office to cash winning lottery tickets worth $10,000 when she was attacked.
The two men who attacked her are now behind bars. Blake Jordan and Kenneth Marshall, both 22, apparently attacked the woman with a hammer. They’ve been charged with maiming, attempted robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.
One of the men is apparently a nephew of the 55 year old woman. Isn’t that cold blooded?
Keary Fox, 56, a lottery worker, first hear the woman scream at 1:10 pm so he ran outside and saw Jordan on top of the woman. He put Jordan in a headlock while a customer took the hammer out of his hand. The pair held him until police arrived. Marshall was arrested later in the day.
The woman suffered lacerations to the back of the head. Lucky for her that lottery worker came by when he did or she might have had worse injuries or perhaps even have been murdered.
Get this … U.S. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner who already happens to be a millionaire and is heir to the Kimberly-Clark fortune has been having a lucky streak.
Back in 1997 he hit it big when he purchased a ticket for the District of Columbia Lottery. He won $250,000. As if his millions and a lucky lottery win wasn’t enough, last spring he ended up winning $1000 in the Wisconsin lottery, then he won yet another $1000 in the same lottery a few days ago.
“I got lucky,” Sensenbrenner said.
Sensenbrenner, 64, was born into a family that helped build Kimberly-Clark Corp., maker of Kleenex tissue and Scott paper towels, and he recently reported a net worth of about $11.6 million. He said he spends about $10 a week on lottery tickets.
New Bedford councilman Paul Koczera doesn’t have to worry about gathering campaign contributions anymore. He won 2.5 million dollars in a state lottery scratch-off game. He turned in the winning ticket last week and walked away with the first of his 20 annual payments of $87,000+ dollars. He’s single ladies.
Koczera, says he continue on as a councilman and won’t quit his day job as a legislative director with the Bristol County Sherriff’s office.
I’ve never been much of a better but I do follow Football, baseball and hockey games and occasionally enter into friendly bets with friends. I do know a lot of people that bet seriously on games, well on just about anything really. I guess it can be addictive, and maybe I’m just lucky that it never caught on too much with me.
I did find a site that I’m told is one of the oldest sports handicapping websites online today. Jimfeist.com offers Football Picks and full game analysis on all major games and sports including basketball, football, hockey, baseball, horse racing, golf and many more. Free picks are offered daily as well in order to showcase the handicapper’s talents at calling the game’s winner.
Jimfeist.com has everything you need to stay ahead of the game. There are several sections to the site including scores and stats, Proline, Sports Picks and even contests - there are four active contests right now. You can also get workbooks and magazines, sports schedules, schedule updates, league reports, plus information from Linetracker.com and OffshoreConnection.com.
I know I’m going to have to tell a few friends about this site so they can get their sports picks. I’ll probably never see them anymore once I tell them about this site ’cause they’ll be too busy hanging out on it doing all their sports betting.
