re: Best watch that isn’t a Rolex

Wonder why they went to all the trouble to make it look real and then went with serif font on the date wheel?

It is not clear how much Spears sold her rights for, but a source told the outlet it was on par with Justin Bieber’s reported $200 million deal to sell his back catalog...


How in the hell did Zach Bryan get $350 million for his catalog?

But he’s not gonna pick the winning door. Whatever of the 3 you pick, there is going to be 1 wrong door that he can take off. Then it’s still 1 right door and 1 wrong one. It’s the same odds to switch or stay, 50/50 shot.


Don't feel bad, I can assure you that greater minds than you also got it wrong. :lol:

I always thought it was the woman who had answered questions in the Parade magazine that came with the Sunday paper.

Edit: I see someone already posted her name. Marilyn vos Savant

I remember she had 1000’s of college professors and PhDs arguing with her on her Monty Hall question/answer.

quote:

Imagine you are on a game show. There are three doors: behind one is a car, and behind the other two are goats. You pick a door, say #1. The host (Monty Hall), who knows what is behind the doors, opens another door (say #3), which he knows has a goat. He then asks: "Do you want to switch to door #2?" Is it to your advantage to switch? Her Answer: "Yes; you should switch." She stated that the original door has a 1/3 chance of winning, but the remaining door has a 2/3 chance.

That’s awesome! I have never seen a whooping crane!


Went to two different farms today and there were a pair at both farms. Really cool sounds they make.
This one looks like he is ready for Valentines Day.





Also saw a couple of Whooping Cranes but they were a little shy of my blind.

Some random magazine made the nomination because they have a college professor on staff. That is the criteria for nominating someone being a University professor.
Exuma Bahamas y’all need to stay the hell away from there. Terrible

Very cool find. My dad had an old 30 gallon drum he would throw broken pieces in. Pretty sure there are some pottery pieces in here somewhere. These are about 8” deep.

So he was a tweaker.
That whole area around Page Arizona is very nice. We stayed in a little town called Kananb in Utah and it was located pretty well to explore that surrounding area.

Hospital evacutated after 8" artilley round found in rectum.

quote:

A man sparked an evacuation at a French hospital after doctors discovered an eight-inch-long live World War I artillery shell in his rectum.

The unnamed 24-year-old rushed to the Rangueil Accident and Emergency unit in Toulouse, in the south-west of the country, late on Saturday night.


quote:

‘He was in a state of extreme discomfort, having inserted a large object up his rectum,’ said an investigating source.

‘Emergency surgery was carried out, and the object was found to be an artillery shell dating back to the First World War.

‘Worse still, it had not exploded, and so bomb disposal experts had to be called to diffuse the shell, with the fire brigade standing by.’

If the whole point was just to disguise that they were beer cans, why not just say coca cola on the labels?


Because they actually had lawyers in the 80’s also.
quote:

When my brother and I were in little league baseball, my dad had a magnetic wrap that said Caka-Cola and looked like a Coke label. He'd bring a little cooler of Miller Lites to the games and toss a few back in the stands using the fake label on the beer cans.


My dad did the same thing. I only remember because one of the labels said Mountain Pew.

Quote from his parents.

quote:

Family members said Pretti owned a handgun and had a permit to carry a concealed handgun in Minnesota. They said they had never known him to carry it.


His neighbors also said that he would go shoot a rifle at a nearby range but they were surprised that he would be carrying a pistol.

If he was going to a protest and that is the only time he would walk around armed who did he think he might have to shoot?

quote:

good to know how everyone on here thinks the police should shoot anyone that they see has a gun. I hope you feel that way if you ever carry outside your house.


Didn’t watch the video but you are telling me this guy was just walking along in front of his house and the police drive up see him with a gun and start shooting him with no warning? Yea that’s very bad and if that is what happened I’m sure the police officers involved will be fully charged. What you played out is pretty cut and dry. I don’t even need to see the video.
quote:

Cool. I’ll research it. Any reason why they’d shower this thing with more Oscar’s than any movies ever had before?


To qualify for an Oscar you have to check certain boxes. The more boxes you check the more nominations. For instance if you had a multicultural non binary undocumented immigrant choreographer = instant nomination in one category.( If they identify as multi personality then 2 nominations but this is rare)
I would think paved roads would be a maintenance nightmare with those freeze thaw cycles.
