Mexican Carpet Worker Wins Mega Millions

One of the winning tickets for the $370 million (maybe more) Mega Millions jackpot was bought in Dalton, Georgia.
Mister Smisty used to live there and reports that the town is full of Mexican immigrants who enjoy gainful employment in Dalton's carpet business.
The other winning ticket was purchased in Southern New Jersey.
In other news, I went to work this morning and wasted $15 on lottery tickets, even though I know that lotteries are a regressive tax on the poor and the stupid.

Not Mexican, but he did say he's going to buy his daughter a house because she has wanted to move out of her mobile home for a while now.
