Ask HN: How do you choose powerball numbers if you play?

I play sometimes just for fun. I was using R a while back to do kernel density estimation using the history of each time a number appeared in a drawing. My assumption was that each number should have an equal distribution over time, so anything that did not had a higher likely hood of being chosen. Safe to say, I still have not won. What is your method to choosing numbers for the powerball?
