Is the Lottery coming to the internet soon
Check out this article on Yahoo from USA today about states considering selling lottery tickets on the internet. I guess that is no great surprise that they are considering such a move, since it would save everyone money.
By internet I am talking the regular internet, that one allegedly invented by Al Gore. Wasn't that one of the dumbest comments you have ever heard a politician make? Sounds more like something you would hear from the king of quotes, good ol Dan "tomatoe" Quayle. Come to think of it though, he might be a better than VP Dick "King of Draft Deferrments" Cheney.
Here is the link to the story:

Internet lottery sales are an interesting idea. Keeping minors and out of state players out might be more difficult than they suggest. The comment that Georgia would limit sales to $5 a day reminds me of the original Illinois riverboat gambling bill, which had limits of $5 per bet and $200 per day. When the bill was actually passed, though, the limits had mysteriously disappeared.
If they get approval to do this, it won't take casinos long to ask for the same thing.
