What a wonderful thing to happen to such a sweet couple! It is so nice, for a change, to see someone in such a "crappy" point in their lives receive a break like this. The only thing that would be more personally heart warming would be for me to win <grin>

All the best to them and their family.

It's a short-lived break. They will be broke, penniless, and drug addicts by 2014.

Actually, they are doing some great stuff with their winnings. They bought new hockey equipment for the local hockey team and are taking over the hot lunch program to make sure noone in their community is going hungry. It's very heart warming.
