In these tough economic times—to use a popular cliché these days—the people of this country are looking for ways to put more money in their pockets. Some people work two jobs or work freelance or sell eggs or internal organs. However, other people try to get rich quick by spending money on lottery tickets. To be perfectly honest, this might be something I'll start doing soon, too. But a word to the wise: If you buy one of those scratcher lottery tickets, please wait until you are in a safe area before you start scratching away. Scratching your lottery ticket while meandering through a busy and crowded parking lot probably isn't the best or the safest thing to do. How do you expect to collect any winnings if you cluelessly step in front of a racing car? And, I'm sorry, if I run you over and if you have a winning ticket, I'm taking it because I would really like to take a vacation to Greece. So, please, for your own safety, people, wait until you are safely in your car or safely at home before you scratch that lottery ticket.
