Thanks for the url links

by LindaZ - Mar 23 2010 - 4:35am

Thanks for the url links there. I checked it and all talk about agriculture. Its a bout time to live greener than usual because its St. Patricks Day!Somebody is going to have the luck of the Irish in Oregon - the St. Patrick's Day Oregon Lottery raffle has a $1 million winner. That's at the least one person who won't need any faxless payday loans ever again. Oregon, and also a lot of other states, draws plenty of funds for projects and for education from lottery proceeds, even though they do have to pay up every now and again. Cheers to the lucky ticket holder - although the bad news is that not only are they going to have to deal with federal taxes on it, Oregon has a state income tax. So they're probably looking at $400,000 take home or less.
