not until the reward $ goes up

that's really shortsighted, it's the talk show bookings where you start to get paid. solving capital murders is a good business to be in.

I am sure some of you remember the great PA lottery scandal. I knew very little about it, but recall it came up once when the pick 3 hit was 6-6-6. It was going to be a few days before anyone got paid anything. That was how I recall hearing the legend, but like all legends I did not have the true/complete story.

Bucky, you can stop dropping dollars on 666.

for the pa lotto... stay away from the cold numbers, pick hot numbers, pick combos and when you add the numbers up should be in a middle range 33-66%.

it's random, so pick any number you want

we were doing a lottery calendar for the firehouse for a couple years. one guy recommended that we hold back (i.e. not sell) calendars with numbers that had historically hit often. i lost all respect

I kind of vaguely remember my grandparents watching Bowling for Dollars (this is a slide over from lottery insider Nick Perry, to one of his other gigs as Pittsburgh B4$ host). I never knew that several cities had their own version including Philadelphia. WPHL-TV Host were: Dick Schorr (WTAF), Bob Gale (WTAF), and Tom Dooley (WPHL). All I recall was the guy hosting had a mop of hair. Fair enough since I was a toddler when it disappeared.

Might be onto something. Saw a video of a girl on one of these and she screamed like it was killing her.

Lies. Numbers starting with 19 NEVER hit the pick 4 because they know old people play "important years".

Never the same after that song about him hit the airwaves.

Friend who I did the bike trip with had his bike (from the trip) stolen from outside his office on Sunday. Through a friend of a friend we saw it posted on the app Let Go.

My friend was able to get this guy to meet under the guise of wanting to buy it. It was all incredibly amateur on the thief's part. Post d it three times on the app under three different listings, all at different prices, and he had no idea how much the bike actually cost.

Was supposed to meet at 8 this morning in a public market in DC. Around 9 a few out of place black teenagers show up. The guy selling the bike still hasn't come. Keeps saying he is on the train and getting close. The group sits down at a table. My friend moves to the opposite end of the market.

Kid finally arrives. My friend offers him 300. Kid says no we agreed to 400. They go back and forth. My friend asks where he got it. Kid says selling it for a friend, and that's when he tells him that it is actually his bike and he knows the kid is full of shit. Shows him the receipt and a photo with the bike.

At that point the kid motions to the table and his buddies get up and walk towards them.

Friend ends up getting him down to 320. Hands him 300. Kid says hold up let me count it. You trying to play me, the kid says. Friend hands him another 20 and rides away.

Pretty frustrating and potentially dangerous encounter. He had the cops there but the kid was so late the cops left. He just wanted his bike back. Sucks to pay 300. He thought about asking to take it for a test ride and then ride off but had no idea if they had weapons not anything. With them being complete amateurs who knows if they could have just gone off and stabbed him or fired a gun. Wild stuff.

Why'd the cops leave? Because he was running a few minutes late? Feel like that shouldn't have happened.

by **Slowhand** » Wed Oct 16, 2019 15:34:32

Sounds like the friend is the amateur.

I guess. He just didn't want to have a physical altercation with 5 teens.
