Weekend report

Only one story from me over the weekend: this one on whether the lottery and video poker can co-exist.

Oh, and I don't know how many folks are out on their "personal watercraft," which I grew up calling a jet ski, this time of year, but the rules on those things are about to change.

You still have to be 16 to pilot one by yourself. But the minimum age for young riders to pilot with adult accompaniment has risen from 12-years-old to 14-years-old.

Click here to read the new law, which goes into effect Tuesday, Nov. 1. Unless folks are into cold-weather water sports, it'll probably affect more vacation plans next summer.
