If you won the lottery.......

Well, JP said something about $20M being enough to elevate Michigan to Varsity. Don't know if that would include any endowed scholarships so I'd be willing to toss in a few more $M. Would have to match that to the general endowment at Michigan and the seminaries where I got my Masters and where I'm working on my doctorate. If we're working with the 353M number and assuming Uncle Sam gets 176M, then I've still got 75M to buy a nice house, fund my kids' educations, and pay for my congregation to relocate our historic building to the middle of the hayfield we own.

Yeah. I could handle that.

But then again, I don't play the lottery. As Garrison Keillor once said, "Its a special tax on those who don't understand statistics.

gumby's is a better laxative than a pizza pie.

I'd Build 3 Indoor domed facilities in Mn (Duluth/Bloomington/Mpls) that give priority to lacrosse.

I'd bet you'd need a full-time Director of Lacrosse Operations up at Duluth too. I know a few people who wouldn't mind that gig...

Several different race tracks on purchased land just outside the cities. at least 1 rally style course, high speed loop, replica of Nurburgring and Leguna Seca

Then I'd pay someone to make my car RWD instead of FWD.

Pirate ship complete with cannons. I saw both the ships from the pirates of the carribien movie in the bahamas and im going to steal the black peral. i guess it would be better to say pirate the black peral cause you don't need to win the lottery to do that!
