currently, the canadian super 7 lottery<\/A> is worth twenty-four million dollars. tonight’s the big draw and the entire country seems to have lotto fever. everyone’s asking “what would you do if you won?” well, here’s my plan when i win tonight (one task per million).
\n1. get a cell phone with an unlisted number.
\n2. move into a (really nice) hotel until i’d found a new place to live.
\n3. eliminate my parents’ debts.
\n4. set both mom and dad up with generous annuities to keep them in a manner to which they should have become accustomed.
\n5. eliminate my debts.
\n6. provide mark & meghan with whatever kind of wedding they desired, wherever they desired it to be.
\n7. rowan would be able to go to any college she wanted.
\n8. heather & i would go to australia together a lot sooner than 2010.
\n9. tyler would be the recipient of a healthy “struggling artist” grant.
