Default Life sucks indeed.(an imagination)

Imagine this

It's saturday evening, you are sitting with a cold bee and your lottery coupon, waiting for the draw.

After 5 minutes you have won the big price. You was the only winner, in this huge lottery.

Now you are a millionaire.

You just can't believe it. For decays you have been forced to turn every dime 3-4 times just have enough money to live.

You can't get hold of your self. As you wandering around you apartment/flat/house trying to get a grip on your self, you hear that the sound on the tv increase.

This is CNN with a breaking news. We go directly to our newsreporter in Austria

What can you tell us Mr?

-A big black hole has occured this is the end of the world as we know it.

The scientist has calculated, that we only have 7 month left, after that the Earth has vanished in to this black hole.

Winnig the big price, in lottery, is everyones dream, but hearing that the world is coming to an end, right after, isn't what you wishes so if it should happen to you, you can say

LIFE SUCKS INDEED.

I guess that would depend on who the scientist is. Is it Al Gore?

Reminds me of this twilight zone episode where this woman thinks the earth has left its orbit and is moving towards the sun.

I liked the one with Burgess Meredith where he wishes he's the only one left on earth, and gets locked in a vault from something like friday to monday. When he emerges, the whole of civilization is destroyed in a global war, and he can finally get the peace he wants, to read his books, but then he breaks his glasses.

Yep, that's the one. What the shows and films in those days lacked in special effects was more often than not made up for in the story.

Well providing you won the BIG one, you could convince the Russians to sell to you their brand new space shuttle and head in the opposite direction of the black hole. Providing the space shuttle makes it out of our atmosphere first.
