I think an hour and 43 minutes of silence gives you your answer.
Or perhaps the only answer you'll be getting.

..not here. I don't think anybody won it as all the convenience stores I passed on the way home tonight (22:30 west coast) all still had 999$ million on their signs.
The drawing here would have been at 20:00 local time.
yoo much braver than me
good luck
Darn! Winning ticket sold in my state. I knew I shoulda played. If I'd won, I would have bought you all something.
Not me.
Just to throw out a comment, in line with the title - Cats making working a lot better - I'm working from home today... office cat will claim my lap soon... yes, I really am working... on the laptop. Really... I AM! Where'd my cat go....
(and I just checked by bank account - no new surprises... oh, I'm supposed to buy a ticket? well, heck...)

Well have to say the procedure wasn't bad since I slept through it ,but the prep ,no sleep and then the wait ,don't know what was going on but got there at 7:15am and didn't get out until almost 1pm ,but I got McD's for lunch.
...no 1,000,000$ winners in Oregon *sigh*
Seems the top prize winner of these big lotto jackpots is always somewhere on the East Coast (often NJ), or in Florida. We here on the West Coast could use a little help to offset the high costs out here once in a while.=(
My ride said she will be here by 4:35 which was over ten minutes ago.

Not enough cats to revive it.
Or possibly nobody has anything to complain about. To which I say, that's just not human nature.
Complaint: There's a wonderfully promising household sale in the city this weekend but I daren't attend, I'm sure to find something I can't do without and can't afford.
Non-complaint: My budget spreadsheet indicates that I'm still in within my monthly budget and "could" survive the month without having to dip into savings if I continue to deny my desires.
Complaint: There are still 27 more days until my next SS deposit.
It was a toasty 30F when I left the house early this morning, around 8:00 am.

Complaint: Hasn't been a freebie since 9 days ago! The recent PC+ Anniversary Mega Pack 2 was a bust. I already have every single thing in it! They were already freebies during the past months. What's the deal with that? Nothing special about it unless you just joined the PC+ recently. Did I miss something else? I don't see it.

Non-complaint: DAZ has cooperated with my low funds situation and has for several weeks not put anything new in its catalog that I can't do without. Yay!
'Nother non-complaint: In keeping with my on-going low pressure study of the Russian language I've discovered a show on my AmazonPrime fireTVstick about the early history of Russia's empress Catherine The Great (Catherine II). It's a Russian TV series at least ten 40 minute episodes in the first season and similarly in the 2nd season. Necessarily it also presents a lot of detail about Catherine's predecessor* Empress Elizabeth and members of the Russian court of the mid 1700s. The show is "Ekaterina: The Rise of Catherine The Great". https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4231140/ It is, of course, spoken in Russian but also with some German and French. Thankfully, the subtitles are done well. The whole show is actually very good. I've read major biographies of several of the early Russian rulers (Ivan The Terrible, Boris Gudanov, Peter The Great, Elizabeth, and Catherine II) and am quite familiar with the backstory. This TV series seems to be quite accurate despite the limited amount of details possible in video vs book. The sets, costumes, and locations are marvelous. The acting is very believable and at least comparable to the "Versailles" series https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3830558/ from several years ago. I get drawn into the story like a good soap opera despite having to glance down at the subtitles. However, to my credit I also listen and associate what I hear with what I read and quite often understand the key words in a simple statement before I glance down at the translation. And I also pick up a few frequently used new words and sentence structure because of the translation. Most of the speech is translated but not the words shown in correspondence or in scene labels (like "Saint-Petersburg Harbor, Summer 1744") so I take those opportunities to pause the show and grab my Russian/English dictionary and look up words I don't understand. Trying to read the correspondence also gives me experience trying to tease out the letters and make sense of Russian cursive script.
* Note: Catherine's actual predecessor was her husband Peter III, grandson of Peter the Great and also Elizabeth's nephew, but his reign was very short (6 months) before he was ousted by Catherine. He's always portrayed as self centered weak and incompetent. https://www.biography.com/people/peter-iii-39106
Actually the new freebies have been coming out on Mondays instead of Wednesday. Picked up the two latest on the 22nd. Unless you mean the freebie page and not the bottom of the new release page.
Non-complaint: In perusing my new TV viewing options I've found several versions of the opera "Sadko" by Rimsky-Korsakov.
Complaint: I was curious about the opera which I'd never seen, or was even familiar with the plot, but do like its strangely foreboding and mournful overture music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFIPBJfaGAc I tried to watch the opera, but unsuprisingly, like most stage operas it quickly bored me to abandonment.
However, I did watch one adventure movie adaptation of Sadko long enough to realize that in addition to the overture it also contains one other familar piece of music, the "Song of India" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBpN9-XOIqQ
My toothache is making me grumpy! I can't wait to see the oral surgeon for an examination. That is all.
What were they, if you don't mind telling me. Maybe they weren't very new and I already have them. Bottom of the page? I have it sorted by New Arrivals, with newest at the top.

bottom of the sales promo page current freebie is the Coopers Workshop
And the one before that was Rubble For Everyone II. That's it so far.
Which sales promo page? I use the link at the top that says "Shop", first after the DAZ3D logo. On that page, everything is usually listed, including the 100% off items. That page has scrolling banners with individual items or promos, one of which is the FastGrab, then the bi-weekly Freebies. Under that one is What's hot, which is individual item pages, same for the next scrolling banner. Under that is the filters, and on the right Sort By, which I have set to New Arrivals. I don't think I've ever used a page that was for all sales promos in general, just the links in the banners at top.
