WannaBe: #8 vs #9 are suppose to be close games, but SLU just blew out UGA... Don't know how SLU qualifies as "Atlantic-10" conference, but along with VCU are definitely putting out notices to the tournament.

WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: You made a comment on Skyline chili on another forum, about a month ago. Today I came across this YT video: https://iq-dist-2.com/s/page/2y888-... My convenient/easy go to is Hormel (BEANLESS!!), I do Chili Mac or use them for Chili Omelets

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

  OhioChessFan: 2nd half weren't nearly as good. Sticking with State Farm, M&Ms and BMW.

Spectrum was worst.

  WannaBe: personal log, Trini Lopez "If I Had a Hammer"

  WannaBe: Lopez's version of "If I Had a Hammer" is pretty good. Someone last night at karaoke suggested I listen to it. And compare it to Peter, Paul & Mary

  WannaBe: Half way through "Jackboots on Whitehall" and I'm giving it A++

Hitler in Queen Elizabeth's dress is hilarious, and so is the London's Tube map (a.k.a. subway for us Americans) had me rollin'. And Joseph Goebbel looking like a Zombie is great.

The references to numerous other movies are hilarious. Igor, Lord of the Rings, and why does that French Resistance fighter reminds me of Lee Marvin?

Mar-25-24  technical draw: <WannaBe>. Since you're my go to guy for all things tech please tell me how my facebook page suddenly turned Chinese!? I don't remember changing anything but now all the posts are in Chinese. Are the Chinese taking over the world one facebook page at a time? Help.

  WannaBe: <TD> Quick search does not explain why or how it became Chinese display, but everything I found only shows how to change it.

Search/Google "Change facebook display language"

Mar-26-24  technical draw: Thanks <WannaBe>. However just as mysteriously as they appeared the Chinese characters disappeared. I might be in the Matrix. Lucky I don't have anything of importance to anyone (Chinese or otherwise) so if someone is searching for gold they best look elsewhere.

China may be after your Pick-3 formula.

My P-3 formula is in a safe, buried 20 feet deep, in an uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean, east of Java. Also protected by Indiana Jones type traps. Let them try!

  WannaBe: Watching this fascinating documentary on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFU...

The Spear of Destiny & WWII Nazi. Amazing what I did not know about history. Personally, I would have gone and went for the Holy Hand grenade of Antioch.

  WannaBe: Personal log, star date unknown. Make a post on LinkedIn on the last country to host Summer and Winter Olympics in the same year (before the schism) and what was proposed for the next one.

Fascinating history.
