Aren't a couple of them related to me? Uncle Bill? Grandpa Warren? Don't forget me in your wills.

Just in case I never win that Powerball jackpot.

Don't forget you're still playing for me, too.

Those guys are so filthy rich, it's pathetic. Let's just hope they're not just keeping to it themselves -- giving it to charity and whatnot.
