    I used to work with this guy who a practical joker in the worst way. Like put more and more sugar in your coffee when you aren't looking. Or the time he almost got us thrown in jail by having an "exploding" pen (it's just a cap gun inside) at a bar, so when someone used it to settle their tab the staff/bouncers thought it was a gunshot, and were all over us.

    Well he told his wife they won the lottery. Naturally, she called bullshit, but he was unrelenting. Started looking at expensive houses, and even planned his retirement party. When she finally began to believe/couldn't take it anymore, he came clean.

    He's divorced now. Living down at the Lonely Arms with Lenny (probably)

    Yep. He'd be retired at this point. Nice enough guy, but took it too far.

    Figured. Haha. Seems to be a lot of extreme practical jokers amongst the aviation circles. I saw some stuff that still has me laughing my butt off to this day. Lines that were crossed waaaaaaaaaay too far.

    Would the ultimate quiet quit be appropriate in this case?

    If we win, I'm buying a canvas tent and portable wood stove with a pulk sled, and one of those fancy kevlar canoes. Retiring and visiting Harry's Island to talk over how to spend the rest of it.

    Same thing. Refunded again. You have like 10 or 15 minutes for a third try before I leave.

    You change the setting to friends and not use the goods or services type of payment.

    A few powerball matches, but not sure enough other numbers matched for any bigger pay-outs. No other winner from reports and larger drawing on Monday.
