The winning numbers in Tuesday night's $1.6 billion Mega Millions drawing were

                            5    28    62    65    70     *5

The cash option in the world's largest lottery jackpot was an incredible $913-million.  The last time someone won the Mega Millions jackpot was back in July when 11 people in an office pool shared $543-million.

What are the chances of winning the jackpot?  1 in 302,575,350 per ticket.

After grocery shopping I had $6.00 in my hand so before walking out I decided to invest that 6 bucks in some Mega Millions numbers.  Not one of my numbers matched the winning numbers....not one.  But I'm sure that's pretty typical of most people.
