Wow, folks like that are hard to come by these days.

I've always said that if I ever won a big chunk like that, I'd have more fun giving it away than spending it on myself. I'd buy us a nice house, and some really kick-ass bikes, sure, but I'd retire my dad, pay off my sister's house, set up college funds for my son, my nephew and my 2 step-kids, buy my dad a house and a really hot car, give my mom and step-dad whatever they wanted, (but they're pretty well-off anyway) and donate a HUGE chunk of money to Leader Dogs for the Blind.

Great story, Madman, thanks for sharing it.

Well if I am not wrong and I don't think Sheryl is someone else it was the one that read "Life is pain" and where you see a guy poking the eye of an other one... And hijack away, I don't mind at all...

wow, what a great person, risked his life on the beaches to protect our freedom, then he gives all his money away to other people. I really wish there were more people like that in todays world.
