What's the point? I'll go back to my nihilistic rut.

Snidely let the masses down. I think some people were already packing for his big Vegas party...and now this rut business.

you live, you die. The world doesn't care. A few people attend your funeral, a few tears are shed. if you're lucky, someone will put roses on your grave.

I guess this is why I don't play the lottery much. The stakes were high. It hurts so much to lose. Fear of death increases in exact proportion to increase in wealth. Maybe it's good that I didn't win.

But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads? The complex harmony of a man with $200M is one I am not chosen to behold.

Spirit? There's no spirit here. That lottery loss has drained Snidely of his Tiger Blood. He needs to get back up on the horse that bit him.

You're right. My wife dragged me to Parx horse racing casino. I bet My Precious Quiet to win in the 7th race. He came in last.

But not to worry, we have two horses tapped to win in the 8th race.

Bingo starts at 7PM.

Unless you're like Edgar Allan Poe--someone brought roses to his grave for decades, until a few years ago.

Car trouble?

But the moral of this story is to perhaps write like he did so as to be remembered for not what you wrote but for what someone else kept doing for years.

And keep playing the lottery. You knever now. (Or is it never know?)
