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: <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).

  WannaBe: <OCF> Yeah, the golden bird logo gave it away. And also agree this was a pretty weak year for ads

I will go with Mayo (When Harry Met Sally II), Doritos, and the Meta with banana + tape.

Another funny thing, if you watch the original movie clip of that diner scene and look at the neon sign with the price of soda, then look at the ad, and see the price... Inflation.

  WannaBe: Apparently that him & her ad have been previewed by some, and it's gotten backlash from both Dem and Rep...

Like I predicted, bankrupt in 2 years.

  OhioChessFan: I probably should have put Lay's in my top 3.

  WannaBe: I've always liked this song (and still do), but I've never, never, never seen a video of Dr Hook

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUj...

Still love the song. Regardless of the subtle messages.

Act now, buy more save more. 🤑

  WannaBe: In Nevada, it is illegal to tip using casino chips. (Say whaaaaaaaa?!!?)

  WannaBe: Here's another item of interest, there are 5 states that do not have lottery or participate in multi-state PowerBall.

Alaska, Hawaii, Alabama, Utah. And the fifth? Nevada.

There is a bill going through the legislation that will put this on the November ballot and allow lottery.

Here is another kicker, any changes have to be passed twice. So, like if something passed 2024 November, it will appear 2026.

Just in case voters change their mind...

  Troller: So we have the weird non-contiguous states, the Mormon sect-state, the banjo-playing backwards state not having a lottery? And then you are saying that the gambling capital of the world has joined in on this?

  WannaBe: I can never turn down a good sale/buy day on Wall St. Acquired 5 more shares of QYLD and 200 shares of LCID, figure I'd dip my toes into penny/EV stonks. 🤪🤣🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🙄

  WannaBe: Learned a new word today: grawlix

(Now, why would auto-correct have red line under that?! It is spelled correctly)

If you are wondering what the %#!@ is grawlix, well you just saw it.

  WannaBe: Tried to post a message via subspace to <Open Defence> only to realize it was analog vs digital. (forum's closed, not my fault, or Uhura's)

So, here, I will try the Morse Code method.

<OPENDEFENCE, HAVE YOU SEEN THE TEASERS FOR STRANGE NEW WORLD SEASON 3?>

<PLEASE RESPOND. OUT. ONLY A FEW MONTH LEFT.>

  WannaBe: Sales extended on Wall St. So I bought 10 more shares of XYLD and 43 more of GOGL <-- this is not Google, but a shipping company called Golden Ocean Group Limited

  WannaBe: Pre-market trading shows indication for further discount/sale on Monday...

See what kind of price I can get. 🤑

Apr-10-25  Open Defence: <OPENDEFENCE, HAVE YOU SEEN THE TEASERS FOR STRANGE NEW WORLD SEASON 3?>

Hi <Wannabe> unfortunately no.... India gets them much later or not at all

The last series of lower decks is still not available in India

However SNW was streamed on Jio which is a very large platform in India so I am hoping they will have S3 however here, local language programming has much higher numbers so the platforms rarely go for english series unless they are all the rage like Adoloscence , Stranger Things etc

  WannaBe: Looks like Market is in another discount mode. Bought 100 shares of BEN
Apr-10-25  Open Defence: I thought the US markets would have rebounded with the tarrif pause, unless the spat with China is still driving them down
