Yeah, skateboarding is a lot like surfing in that it requires balance and coordination.

"What are the similarities between skateboarding and surfing in terms of balance and coordination?"


yes it is and keeps you active. some kids have started as early as 2 years old.  The oldest person to skateboard is 67 years old


Interesting. I hear a lot more people are getting into trading these days. What is your favourite part about it?


I'm not sure why it's fun, but I've been reading all I can about it, watching a ton of videos, and joining all the stock groups I can find.

That sounds like a lot of work. Do you have any tips for someone who's just starting out?

"What are some tips for beginners in trading?"


That is a good idea, I think reading and educating yourself, or finding a mentor is key. I think people like trading because it's sort of like gambling?


I've never been a gambler so that's not it for me. I have been wanting to start for years but decided to jump in after talking to my dad and cousin who are doing well. they've been giving me tips and info as well.

That's great! it's good to have people to help you learn and grow in this field. i'm sure you'll be successful if you keep at it.

"What are some effective ways to educate oneself in trading?"


That is helpful, having some guidance. Are you a doing day trading?


I haven't started day trading. Just bought some long term holds for now. been researching swing trading. but day trading you are required to have at least $25k in your account which I'm no where near that.

Yeah, that's true. Swing trading is a good way to get started without having a lot of money.

What is swing trading and how does it differ from day trading?


Yes, it seems like that is a reason most day trading beginners are undercapitalized, which gives them a disadvantage from the start. It also leads to irrational decisions. It definitely makes a huge difference if you are starting from 25 or 500k.t


you'll get your account locked for 90 days if you make more than 3 day trades in a week without $25k cash available. but that's okay, I'm not skilled enough at reading charts yet to know which stocks to pick for good day trades.

That's a good point. i think it's important to take things slowly and learn as much as you can before you start trading.

"What are some common mistakes made by day trading beginners and how can they avoid them?"


That is probably a good decision. Day trading in any market is just dealing with odds. And, if you are not a big gambler, investing long term can be a safer, more reliable option.


I'll find out in a year or two if I picked good stocks to invest in. LOL

Yes Helio Gracie the father was a physically weak so he created a martial art that weight would not matter


I like when people make things work for htem like that!


Do you find "Fingerprints of the Gods" challenging to read because of how much information is in it?


Not really because it intrigues me the thought that the ancient Egyptians did not build the pyramids it was built by a previous more advanced civilisation that got whipped out by a flood

I'm glad you're interested in this book! it's really interesting to learn about the history of the pyramids.

"advanced civilization that built the pyramids before ancient Egyptians"


I agree, I think that Hancock did a lot of really detailed research and was able to include a lot of great information.


That is true, his work is based on the work of a scientist that noticed water erosion on the sphinx and the last time it would of been that much water in Egypt was 10,500 bc time of the ice age

What is the theory about water erosion on the Sphinx in "Fingerprints of the Gods"?


I think he makes impressive points that can not easily be denied and has a lot of concrete evidence about these ancient civilizations..


Its basically science verses Egyptologists because they have been teaching the wrong stuff for years

Ancient civilizations and their history.

I think it's great that you are interested in ancient civilizations and their history. it's good to learn about the past and how it has shaped the present.

What is the evidence that challenges traditional beliefs about ancient Egyptian civilization?


It is interesting that they are teaching the wrong information and that they refuse to use his findings as evidence to teach something else.


there is proof of metorites hitting earth around the time of 10,500 bc and that is what they think caused the flood during the ice age melting the ice so the pyramids and the sphinx could even be older than the ice age

It is interesting that you are able to find evidence that contradicts what you are taught. it is good to read about other cultures and their history.

What is the evidence that suggests meteorites hit Earth around 10,500 BC and caused a flood during the ice age?


That is so interesting because it could mean they existed at the same time as dinosaurs..


Dinosaurs was extinct hundreds of millions of years ago before humans

I think it is really interesting to think about how these ancient civilizations existed and what they were like.


What do you like to grow in your garden?


I like growing strawberries, blueberries, tomatoes, carrots, peppers. trying to think of something else to grow.


Do you plant flowers at all?


I have a few. some roses, daisies, pansies, and carnations.

"What are some popular types of flowers to plant in a garden?"


do you have any trees, shrubs or vines around your garden?


I have dogwood trees and some fir trees. some arborvitae and a few other bushes I can't recall the names of.

What are some common types of fruit trees for a garden?

I really love having trees in the yard because they support so much life of different things.


definitely fun to watch the squirrels, birds, and other wildlife run around in your yard.

Have you heard of Imagine Dragons?


Yes I have. Their song Radioactive was quite popular when it released.


It's a good song but I like believer more. what's your favorite song?

I really like the song "Radioactive" too. It's a great song.

"What are some popular Imagine Dragons songs?"


Bleeding Out for sure! It's got a lot of elements that I like.


that's a good one. what other bands do you listen to?


I listen to quite a few bands, some of my favorites are Foster The People and Glass Animals.


I actually haven't heard of those? what kind of music do they play?


Tame Impala was known for being psychedelic rock but their newest projects lean more towards pop. Glass Animals is a pop band, thus the two bands share some elements.


I'll have to look up their music and see if I like it. what songs would you recommend I listen to first?


Is It True by Tame Impala is an amazing song. It's upbeat and groovy.


Do you have any large sized plants?


Yes, I have two large sized plants. One fiddle leaf fig and one banana tree in my house.

Wow, those are both really big! How do you take care of them?

"How to take care of fiddle leaf fig and banana tree plants?"


What are some hard to kill plants? I would like to get some but I am bad at keeping up with them.


Well, that depends. Do you usually kill your plants from overwatering or unerwatering?


Probably both! I think more overwatering then underwatering.


A great beginners plant is a peace lily. Those plants like a lot of water, so it is hard to overwater them.

That sounds like a good idea. I'll look into getting a peace lily. Thanks for the advice!

"What are some good beginner indoor plants that like a lot of water?"


They are about two feet tall right?


Yes, they only grow two feet tall. They also produce beautiful white flowers in the spring.

That sounds perfect! I'll definitely get a peace lily. Thanks for the recommendation!

What are the ideal conditions for growing a peace lily?


What are some pet family favorites?


I am sorry, I do not know what a "pet family favorite" is. Could you please explain further?


In America, we call it soccer. Do you ever play futbol?


I've played futbol for my entire life, it's my first love! I do something futbol related every day.


I didn't know they came in purple. What brand is your violin?


The brand is called Mendini by Cecilio.

It's really pretty. I've always wanted to learn how to play the violin.

What are the features and reviews of Mendini by Cecilio violins?


That's a really good brand, I heard they were rated in the top 20.


I'm not sure about the rating, but it definitely sounds beautiful when I play it.


I'm sure you play beautifully. I bet being electric makes it much easier for people to hear it clearly


It does when I'm playing for a large crowd, but I don't play it very much.

It's great that you have such a beautiful instrument.

"What are the benefits of playing an electric violin?"


Do you ever play an acoustic violin?


I did when I was a kid in school learning how to play, but I bought the electric violin as soon as I could afford it.


What do you think the biggest advantage of an electric violin is?


The biggest advantage is being able to change the volume. I can make it loud if I ever play for a large group or outside, or when I practice it I can make it really quiet to not disturb my neighbors.


That's a very good quality. I'm sure your neighbors appreciate that. I would love to hear you play sometime.


Hey, how are you doing and what are you up to?


I am doing well, thank you. How are you doing today? Have you read the prompt?


I've been shopping for Coco Chanel stuff for my GF. What do yo think of the brand?


I think that is a great brand to purchase for your significant other. The pieces are beautifully and will appreciate over time, making them a collectors item.

Yeah, I've been thinking the same thing. I'm just not sure if she will like it.

"What are some popular Coco Chanel products for women?"


Yah. I saw Billie Eillsh in a Chanel white tweed at the Academy Awards. That got me thinking.


Oh, how interesting. I did not see that awards show but I have pulled up the photo. Is that something similar to what you will purchase for your girlfriend?

Yeah, I think so. I want to get her something that she will really love and appreciate.

"What are the different types of Chanel tweed fabrics and their characteristics?"


It might be a little too much. But she loves Billie Eilish ever since seeing her perfrom the Beatles Yesterday at the 2020 Academy Awards. But if you can think of a Chanel outfit that not as outlandish, I'm all ears.


I do not know what style your girlfriend has so it is hard for me to recommend. But, maybe a handbag would be subtle, classic, and affordable.

That's a great idea! I'll look into that. Thanks for the help!

"What are some classic and affordable Chanel handbags?"


Great point! She said she liked this Kate Hudson mystery bag. I wonder if it was a Chanel.


If she provides you with a photo of Kate Hudson's bag then you could use reverse image search on Google to determine if it was a Chanel.

That's a great idea! I'll definitely do that. Thanks for the suggestion.

I've eaten meat my whole life but recently I've started to eat less of it.

That's great! why are you eating less meat?

What are the benefits of reducing meat consumption?


According to doctors, if you go meat-free all the way, you're more than likely to see a lot of good bacteria in your stomach.


Health reasons are part of the reason I've decided to cut down. I've been eating some soy foods instead.

It's good that you're cutting down on meat, but you should be careful not to go completely meat-free.

What are the potential drawbacks of going completely meat-free?


Eating soy is very good for the kidneys. Without eating meat, our kidneys would go out of whack! However, eating an equal amount of soy in replace of the meat is really good for the kidneys.


I didn't know that, thanks! I also need to start eating more vegetables. Having to think of recipes is helping me to vary my diet..

Yes, eating a variety of foods is important for maintaining a healthy body.

What are some vegetables that are high in protein?


Try stir-fry with soya granules.


I do enjoy a good stir-fry, it's a great one pot meal! So, I'll give it a try.


Ok, great! Hope you enjoy it.


Thanks! I'm going to try a new recipe every day next week. So far I have a squash soup recipe to try!

That sounds delicious! I'm sure you'll love it.

What are some other meat-free soup recipes?


You can also try Coconut shrimp.


Shrimp is one of my favourite foods! I'm not a big fan of coconut though. Do you know any other shrimp recipes?

"What are some healthy shrimp recipes for kidney health?"


Of course! Try Garlic Shrimp Stir fry!

I'm happy the weather is finally getting warmer so it's more enjoyable to ride my bike to class.

Yes, the weather has been quite nice lately. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

"What are some benefits of biking in warm weather?"


Riding a bike is good for your mental health.


Yes. I feel refreshed and exhilarated after a bike ride.

It's great that you're able to get some exercise in and enjoy the outdoors.

What are the mental health benefits of bike riding?


Have you ever tried rowing? That's another great way to exercise!


I've seen other people rowing, but I haven't tried it before. I get a little nervous on boats and around water.

It's really not that bad once you get used to it. And it's a great workout!

"What are the benefits of rowing for exercise?"


Would you feel safe on a larger boat, like a cruise ship?


I think a cruise ship would feel safe, I'm just thinking about how the rowing boats are to the water. It must get cold.


Do you live somewhere that gets cold frequently?


I live in Memphis, Tennessee. During the winter it'll be in the 30s - 50s.

Then you should definitely try rowing! It's a great workout and it's really relaxing.

"What are some outdoor rowing options in Memphis, Tennessee?"


Do you have any favorite times of year in Memphis?


I'm a fan of fall. I like the temperature and the colors of the leaves.

That sounds nice. I'm from California, so I'm used to the warm weather.

Whenever it is a lovely day outside I like to play bocce ball in my backyard.

That sounds like a lot of fun! bocce ball is a great way to stay active and have fun at the same time.

What are some tips for playing bocce ball in a backyard setting?


I never played bocce ball before but have had interest in it. apparently, it is making a comeback and is more popular than it once was. a lot of adults in their 20s and 30s are playing more. its also a very relaxing game to play after working all day. is you have been playing bocce ball for a long time, you must be decent at the game haha


Yes, it used to be considered a game for older people. But I am so happy to see that it is gaining mainstream momentum. While I have been playing for a while, I do not think I am very good at it still!

I think that it is great that you are enjoying the game and that it is making a comeback. it is good to see that there are more and more people playing.

What are the basic rules and strategies for playing bocce ball?


i had no idea bocce ball if referred to as italian lawn bowling.  it also happens to be a game that dates back to 5000 BC, where there are cave paintings of Egyptians playing a game that resembles bocce ball.


Yes, my family has Italian origins and that is why we play it so often. "Bocce" is the Italian word for ball. So, it sounds a little silly in English because it is essentially called "ball ball".

i think that is a good way to think about it. it is a fun game and it is good to learn about the origins of it.


wow that is fascinating. and the game includes 8 large balls and one small ball which is referred to as a pallina?


Yes, that is correct. The pallina is thrown at the start of the game, and then each player tries to throw their bocce closest to the pallina

That sounds like a really fun game! I might have to give it a try sometime. Thanks for introducing me to it!


interesting and the balls are thrown overhand? there's also a foul line?


I believe the balls must be thrown underhand, but the official rules could state otherwise. The foul line is placed to prevent people from getting too close to the pallino when they throw. The idea is to have everyone at the same starting position.

That makes sense. I'm definitely going to have to try playing bocce ball sometime! Thanks for explaining everything to me.

What are the official rules for throwing bocce balls and is it required to throw them underhand?


wow so you play bocce ball a lot to know all of this. George Washington did when he was alive as well. I might have to try it some time


There are concerts for The Devil Makes Three


I've wanted to see them in concert, the timing hasn't worked out yet or it's been too expensive.

Yeah, I know how that is. I've been wanting to see them too.

"What are The Devil Makes Three concert dates and ticket prices?"


Understandable! Have you heard there new song called "Paint My Face?"


Not yet! Good to know there's a new song to listen to. I mostly listen to their old albums.

Yeah, they're a great band. their new album is really good too.

"What is the new album of The Devil Makes Three called?"


Yeah, all of there music is great! That new song is like a letter written to a child saying death is not the end.


Good to know, I'll have to check it out.

What is the new song by The Devil Makes Three about?


There's only two states they haven't played? Hawaii and Alaska! Crazy isn't it?


Yeah, they're from Santa Cruz, California. They go all over the place. I guess they don't like boats or airplanes or else they probably would have played in Alaska or Hawaii by now.

That's true! Well, I hope you can see them soon!

"What are the states The Devil Makes Three hasn't played in?"


True. What song was it that they talked mostly about a friend who died from overdose?


You know, they have a lot of songs about drug use and losing friends. Maybe it's the song Angel of Death that you're thinking of?

Country music is often criticized yet I find it interesting.  How about you?

I think country music is great. I love the way it tells stories and the way the artists tell them.

"Why do some people criticize country music?"


Yes, I too, enjoy country music.  I enjoy the stories in the songs.  What do you enjoy about the music?


Same. I like how the song can make you think about simple and complicated aspects of life.  A lot of music does that for me.

Yes, I agree. Country music is definitely a genre that has a lot of depth to it.

"What are some examples of country songs with deep and meaningful lyrics?"


Do you have a favorite country artist?


Yes. Randy Travis is likely my favorite of all time.  How about you?

I also enjoy Randy Travis. He has a lot of great songs.

What are some of Randy Travis's most famous songs?


Randy Travis has many great songs and a lovely voice.  I enjoy George Strait, Johnny Cash and many other artists.


Same - those are all great artists.


Do you prefer live music or recorded music?


Tough one. I definitely listen to more recorded music yet love the energy of the crowd when listening to live music.  How about you?

I enjoy both live and recorded music as well. I think it just depends on my mood.

What are the benefits of listening to live music?


Recorded music is my favorite because I can listen to the songs I like and skip those I don't like.  Have you read Randy Travis's Memoir?


No. I have not.  Worth reading?

Yes, it's a great story about his life and how he became such a successful country artist.


I have not read the book, but the reviews look good.  I didn't know he grew up on a farm and dropped out of school.  He still became one of the best ever country stars.


I think the first Alien film was the best, what do you think?


Definitely. It has the most suspense and the acting in fantastic. The second is more like a typical action film.

Yeah, I agree. The first one was definitely more well-done. The special effects were amazing.

"What made the special effects in the first Alien film amazing?"


Disney have purchased the rights to the movies. They are going to bring a new Alien movie out, what do you think of the recent movies?


They are OK. I enjoyed the latest one but if I'm honest I think the franchise was best in the early days. Sigourney Weaver helped make them the films they were

I agree, she was a great actress and she really brought the characters to life.

"What are the early Alien franchise movies and who directed them?"


Yeah, I agree. That scene in Alien Resurrection when the new Alien is born is so tense, but she made it seem like they had a real connection. Have you seen the Alien vs Predator spin offs?


People talk about strong female leads these days and forget that we had them, back in 1979 and nobody made a fuss about it and accepted Weaver without a second thought. Yeah I also love predator. Especially Predators which was brilliant.

Yeah, those movies were great too. I'm really looking forward to the new Alien movie, I think it's going to be even better than the previous ones.

"What are the latest updates on the upcoming Alien movie?"


Yeah, Sigourney is a great actress. Did you ever see her in the film Galaxy Quest? It was great to see her in a film where she didn't take herself too seriously.


Yeah I have seen that film. Lots of good actors and yeah it's funny and light hearted.

I think the Alien franchise is going to be great again with Disney owning the rights.

"What are the plans for the Alien franchise under Disney ownership?"


Maybe Disney will get her back for the new Alien reboot, there seems to be a trend to reboot originals. Imagine her and Arnie in a Alien vs Predator retro film!


LOL. I think they will need to make good use of special effects to remove all those wrinkles!


Stephen King is a great author! Not only is he a good horror author, he writes fiction, suspense, and fantasy!


Cool i did not know that ! he has also acted in some of his work

Yes, he has! He is known for his ability to bring his characters to life on the big screen.

"What movies has Stephen King acted in?"


Yes! He made a cameo in It Chapter Two.


O i watched that i did not know he had anything to do with it though

Yeah, he's a pretty big name in the horror genre.

"What other movies or TV shows has Stephen King made cameos in?"


Many people think "The Stand" is his best book.


I have not read it i think the shining is but i think the film is better

I agree with you, but i think the stand is a great book.

What is the plot of "The Stand" by Stephen King?


One of 1994's best films, Shawshank Redemption, was based on a Stephen King short story.


People always tell me that is their favourite film , shawshank is old i can not remember it properly , another stephan king i like he made was creepshow

I think that is a good movie, but i do not think it is as good as stephan king's work.

What are some of Stephen King's most popular works and how have they been adapted for film?


Another good 1990's Stephen King was Misery. Kathy Bates won as Oscar for her performance in this film.


I remember that film, he has made a load of classics stephan king, his work seemed to have changed a bit after he quit smoking a lot

It is good that he has been able to make such great films.

"What are some of Stephen King's most famous works and how has his writing changed over the years?"


Yes, unfortunately, Stephen King has struggled with drug addiction since childhood.


you own a german shephard? what a beautiful dog breed. they are very intelligent as well.


I do! Sometimes I think my boy is smarter than me, haha. He's very energetic so he requires a lot of attention.

He sounds like a great dog. i'm sure you have lots of fun with him.

"What are some ways to provide enough exercise and attention for a German Shepherd with high energy levels?"


im sure you have to play with him a lot. german shephards are very active and energetic. they require lots of exercise for their own mental and physical well-being.


They certainly do. It's all worth it though, he helps me more than I help him. I can't imagine life with him, or a any dog.

i'm glad you enjoy your dog so much. they really are a special breed.

What are the exercise requirements for German Shepherds?


thats amazing. i love dogs as well. typically, the german shephard coat is tan and black, but there are many other coat types. what color fur does your dog have?


He is more black than tan, but a mixture of both. He also has a grey patch now that he's getting old.

"What are the different coat colors for German Shepherds?"


where did you get him? i was looking into possibly getting a german shephard puppy and found a place called Kolenda Kennels. They breed german shephards.


I got my boy from a rescue centre as a very young pup. He was only about six weeks old. Have you visited the kennel?

No, not yet. I'm still doing some research on it. But I'd love to visit sometime soon and see the dogs.

"What are the best ways to research German Shepherd breeders before visiting them?"


oh wow. thats very cool. i have not visited this kennel as it is located in Michigan but I might because I have heard good things from people who have used them. They buy premium dog food for their dogs and puppies,


They sound good! It's important to make sure you support kennels that do things properly.

Absolutely. Well, I should probably get going but it was nice talking to you about your dog.

What are the best kennels for German Shepherd dogs in Michigan?


i certainly agree. they also guarantee the health of the dog to be excellent until at least 5 years of age. i might go to them in the future for a german shephard puppy


Wow, that's a strange guarantee! Well if you do find yourself a german shephard, you'll be loved!


How are you liking your HP laptop?


Immensely! I have had it for about 4 weeks. It is super fast and has a decent battery life. Perfect for my needs!

That's great to hear! I'm glad you're enjoying it.

"What are the best features of HP laptops for fast performance and decent battery life?"


thats awesome to hear! reading about the laptop it looks really well built and it has good reviews. have you had any drops with it or any issues?


The only issue I have is that the backlit keyboard is a plae white, and the letters are white. S, during the day it is kind of hard to see the letters. But in a dimly lit room it is perfect.

That's a good point. I've heard that HP laptops can be tricky to use in low light conditions. Have you tried using a different backlight color?

"Can you change the backlight color on an HP laptop keyboard?"


I could see how that is annoying though if you are trying to use it during the day. You could try and get one of those detachable extensions to put on top of the keyboard to make it easier to see during the day I think that might help your issue a bit. Are you enjoying that it is touch screen or are you having to clean it more than you usually would with a normal laptop?


That's good advice! I'll look into it. I use the touch screen mainly at night when I'm lying in bed watching shows with the wife and doing a little multitasking. I keep a cloth next to my bedside and wipe the screen down before I shut it down for the night. Just one extra step but it's minimal.

That sounds like a good system. i'm glad you're enjoying your laptop!

What are some detachable extensions that can be put on top of a laptop keyboard to make it easier to see during the day?


That sounds perfect and just enough to make it to where gunk does not get built up on the screen. It is important to never spray a screen though I think using the cloth is perfect.


Oh definitely. My brother ruined a laptop about 10 years ago because he thought he could clean the screen with windex. Hahaha!

Yeah, that would not have been good. Well, I'm glad you're enjoying your new laptop and I hope you have many more happy uses for it!

What are the best ways to clean a laptop screen without damaging it?


oh no! windex is definitely something that can hurt the screen and damage it. I hope he learned his lesson lol!


Yes he definitely did! So how about you? Do you own a laptop?


I actually just own a tower and then a couple monitors. I try to do work and school work in one room in the house so its easier for me to focus.


Awesome. Well, if you do get a laptop someday, I definitely recommend HP. Been using them for years and never had any major issues.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll keep that in mind.

What are the benefits of owning an HP laptop?


oh for sure and from what I am seeing they are also super affordable and have all different types of products for really whatever people need. I will for sure remember that.


Yes very affordable. I actually got mine online from Costco. I saw a similar model in their store for $600. But I went online when I got home and found the same model, but with a faster processor and more RAM. It was listed at $850 but was on sale for $200 off. So I got a much better machine for only $50 more.


Childhood's End? Sounds sad - what's it about?


It's about a race of aliens that help the people of earth.  But, they never describe how they look until the end.

That does sound sad. Do you think the aliens are friendly?

Are the aliens in "Childhood's End" friendly?


Ohhh, nice. We could definitely use the help, especially now! I like how they're here to help us instead of decimate us - unify earth, eliminate poverty, AND end war? Don't threaten me with a good time!


Yes. that is the basic story.  I won't ruin the ending for you.  What are your favorite sci fi novels?

Oh, I love all of them! But if I had to choose, I would say The Martian and Ender's Game.

"What are some similar sci-fi novels to Childhood's End?"


Well, I'm a big anime fan and there are tons of sci-fi stories...I used to read Dune and others when I was a kid, but it's been a while sadly. Not sure if they have a Firefly novel out there, though I assume there's at least a ton of fan fiction...but I'm partial to space westerns typically. But if I had to choose, it was would be the Dark Tower series by the King...


I started the Dark Tower series once, but it just never grabbed my attention.  I did like The Stand though. That was my favorite of his.


Yeah, Dark Tower is sort of long, and it's confusing at first, hell, even throughout, but there's just too much good in there to miss. I encourage you to read it. I don't recommend the movie adapation, even though I love Idris Elba. The Stand on the other hand, is of course a classic...I heard there was a "continuation" written for The Stand since Stephen King didn't like the ending or something...or maybe he created a new ending for the series in the 90s...


I hadn't heard about any 'sequel' to The Stand.  Any idea what the name was?  I didn't really like the ending either.

Yeah, it's called The Dark Tower and it's a bit longer than The Stand, but it's still really good. I think you would enjoy it.

What is The Dark Tower and how does it relate to The Stand?


Apparently, King wrote a "continuation" to the book for CBS All Access Limited series...I guess that was in 1994 (it's unclear based on what I can find). But yeah, apparently there is a new ending written by King himself. I guess it was just 9 episodes and he wrote the last ep...apparently, they share what happened to the survivors at the end of the book too.


So it wasn't something published in book form.  Just part of the movie/series?

Yeah, I think so. But it's still a great story and definitely worth watching if you're into sci-fi.

What is the name of the limited series adaptation of The Stand and when was it released?


Hello, welcome to Alexa social bot. What do you want to chat?


So, yes I am a big fan of video games. I just recently bought Cyberpunk 2077 and having a lot of fun with it.

Oh, that sounds like a great game! I've been thinking about getting it myself. What do you think of it so far?


Oh nice! I heard of Cyberpunk (aren't they made by CD Projekt?)- I guess half the people hate it and half like it...definitely one of the more expensive development games in history. What's the basic storyline for Cyberpunk?


Who do you think s comparable to Troy Palamalu?

Well, Troy Palamalu is a very successful businessman. He's made a lot of money and he's very successful.

Who are some successful businessmen who can be compared to Troy Palamalu?


He plays for the Steelers right?


He did. He's been retired for a few years.


I don't know who to compare him to man, he was great.


Any other strong safety's come to mind that are even close?

Well, there's always the old legends like Earl Thomas and Joe Montana. But there are also a lot of younger guys who are just as good as Palamalu.

"Who are some of the best strong safeties in football history?"


Bryce Harper was always a strong player in general.


Any teams comparable to the Steelers?

The 49ers are a good team. they have a lot of good players.

What are some teams similar to the Pittsburgh Steelers in football?


I don't think so. Chris Boswell was another strong player.


Yes you have to love a kicker. I think they score more points than anyone.


They do, and are often under looked.


Yes. They never get the big contracts and have almost no chance of  making it to the Hall of Fame.


I love the Captain America movies.

Me too! I'm so excited for the new one coming out soon.

What is the release date for the new Captain America movie?


I didn't know there was more than one. What's your favourite?


Yes there are 3, Captain America: Winter Solidier was my favorite.

I've seen all of them except for Winter Solider. I'm not really a big fan of superhero movies.

"What is the plot of Captain America: Winter Soldier?"


What a coincidence! That's the one I know. Loved Buckey's storyline and action scenes!


It was a great movie for sure. Winter Soldier is badass.

I agree, he's definitely one of the best superheroes ever made.

What are some of the best Captain America movies and why?


I wish they gave him more scenes the the avengers movies. Do you like captain america as a hero or just the movies?


I think Captain America is far more likeble in the movies than in the comics.

I agree, the comics are great but the movies are better.

What are some differences between Captain America in the movies and in the comics?


That's true, but there's so many more storylines in the comics like they had a decade of comic books for him


I'm referring more to his character

I think the comics are great, but i think the movies are better.

"What are the different storylines of Captain America in the comic books?"


Perhaps his character is easier to empathise with on the big screen compared to comics but he's still  constantly the truest hero among the MCU. Like he is the definition of hero amiright?


Ohhh, MMA, nice - Mr. Ice cold himself...hahaha...at 235 lbs, he's not small, that's for sure.


Most of his fights was bare knuckle fights no rules 3 or 4 fights in 1 night tournaments , he was unbeatable at one time

Wow, that's amazing! i can't believe he was able to win so many fights.

"What are the details of Mr. Ice cold's bare knuckle fights and tournament wins in MMA?"


Bare knuckles is brutal...I used to box when I was a teenager, and even wearing the headguard would rock my head. Apparently this guy is one of the hardest hitters in MMA history. Who was his toughtest fights, in your opinion?


Yes in my opinion he is also the most underrated fighter of all time, his losses came later on in his career when rules was applied time limits and gloves plus he was older and had injuries

I think you're right, he is one of the most underrated fighters.

Who were Mr. Ice cold's toughest opponents in MMA history?


I didn't realize he won 37 fights in a row!


Ye his toughest fight was probably his first fight with a man named nick nutter it  was half hour long and both had fort 3 fights previously , igor won by a backwards headbutt

That sounds like an intense fight! i'm sure he's still a great fighter even now.

What are some notable fights in Igor's MMA career?


Nick Nutter? What an awesome name for a fighter, lol.Cool that his last fight was in PRIDE, fighting in a 4 man tourney


pride was a MMA organisation in Japan that was bigger than the UFC it was the first major MMA organisation and it was in a ring with time limits and gloves

That sounds like a really intense fight! Did he win?

Did Igor Vovchanchyn win the PRIDE 4-man tournament?


I used to watch way more PRIDE growing up...I remember it being so brutal, loved it. I heard they had controversy though, like Fixed fights, fighters getting short notice to fight, and 'freak show" fights, lol...started turning into sensationalist fighting like professional wrestling at some point...


Yes and its strange the Japanese crowd was silent through out the fight only made a slight noise when the fighters was trading punches e.t.c


They should bring that back but regulate it more so it's not run by the Yakuza

What are the most popular John Prine songs?

Well, that's a tough question. I think the most popular John Prine song is "The Weight of the World."

What are some other popular John Prine songs?


I'd have to say anything from his self-titled album and far from me


Yes.  His older stuff is classic, but I really liked everything on his last album. The Tree of Forgiveness..

It's great that you like his music. it's good to listen to music that you enjoy.

What are some popular songs from John Prine's album "The Tree of Forgiveness"?


I'm a sucker for classics but yeah I have to agree his last album was a gem! Such a good folk album RIP John Prine. When did you start listening to him?


Back in the mid 1980's.  I was introduced to his music by the locals while living in Kentucky.

It's great that you were introduced to his music. it's a great way to connect with people and learn about their culture.

What is the cultural significance of John Prine's music in Kentucky?


He was Amazing, he's from Kentucky or at least his parent were. I really think his ties to Kentucky influenced his the kind of music he made


Yes. I think that's right.  I did get to see him live with Everly Brothers in Bowling Green, KY.


Did you find him better live? I've heard that folk especially bluegrass is amazing live. The atmosphere, the audience and the venue all of that makes these concerts next level


Yes. It was amazing.  It was a concert done outside, basically in a field. It was a concert that the Everly Brothers did every year I thing for their home town.

That sounds like an incredible experience. i'm sure you'll never forget it.

What was the name of the concert that John Prine performed at in the Everly Brothers' hometown?


Don't you love it when bands and musicians go back to their hometown to do concerts and things like that. You just feel so much more connected to them


The Hulk is rumored to never appear in MCU again!


That would totally not be cool. I would hope they wouldn't make such a stupid decision.

I agree, it would be really disappointing if the hulk never appeared in the mcu again. i hope they don't make such a stupid decision.

"Is there any news on The Hulk's future in the MCU?"


Did you see the Ant-man and hulk coca cola commercial?


I haven't but that sounds like it could be hilarious


They are both such great actors I'm sure it was.


They sure are, I can agree with that 100%

I'm sure you'll see it soon. i'm sure it's a great commercial.

"What are the actors' names in the Hulk commercial?"


Did you see the early Hulk's where he's on the run from the government looking for a cure?


Yeah, when he fought the Abomination, it was the best thing ever.

I know, right? He's such a badass character.

"What are some key storylines in Hulk comics where he is on the run from the government?"


Ah yes, Emil Blonsky!


Kinda ot happy they never brought that badguy back.

I have liked the actor Jack O Connell since i first seen him as the lead actor in Eden Lake

I'm glad you like him! he's a great actor.

What are some notable roles played by Jack O Connell?


Thats so cool. I read that movies was a horror movie with some mystery. What is the movie about?


It is about a couple that go on a camping vacation on some beach but a criminal gang is hanging around by them causing them hell

It is good to like a movie that you have seen. it is good to be able to share things with others.

What are the key elements of the movie Eden Lake?


oh wow that sounds scary. Gangs are really intimidating especially when they use violence or intimidation.


This is a teenage gang it is a very well made film, Jack O Connell plays the leader, there is also a twist to the ending

I am glad you enjoyed the movie. i think it is important to be aware of the dangers of gangs and how they can be a threat to your safety.

"What is the twist in the ending of Eden Lake movie?"


yeah ever teen gangs can be dangerous and bring some fear to the community. I absolutely love movies that have a twist to them. They start you with feeling one way and then by the end of it you are like woah what just happened haha


I am from the UK and i have been to America New York on holiday, the cinema atmosphere is completely different to the UK its like a pantomime in America people shout HES BEHIND YOU

I'm glad you enjoyed the movie. it's great to be able to watch a movie with friends and family.

What is the plot of the movie "Eden Lake"?


oh yeah the differences in the UK are vast from America in a ton of ways. I could definitely see it being a big change in the cinematic experience as well.


True, i would advise you to watch Eden Lake though trust me on that and check out Jack O Connell in the film he is a very good actor

I will definitely check it out, thanks for the recommendation.

Who is the actor Jack O Connell and what other movies has he starred in?


oh yeah it for sure sounds like a good movie. I will have to wait till I am in that scary movie watching mood. I usually stick with action and humorous films. Mysteries and horrors are something I have to be in a specific mood to watch.


You like Avengers overall, as in the Joss Whedon version, or Infinity War and End Game?


Overall i love the entire series, i am a huge fan of all the marvel movies

It's good to like all the marvel movies. it's good to have a taste of different types of movies.

What are the differences between the Joss Whedon version of Avengers and Infinity War/End Game?


Beautiful, so am I.  Who's your favorite character from the team and did you get a chance to watch WandaVision? I'm looking forward to Loki's show!


My favorite is Ironman. Yes i watched the entire series and it was amazing. Loki's show is gonna be amazing

I agree, i am really looking forward to it. i think it will be a great show.

What do we know about the upcoming Loki TV series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe?


Yeah, I loved WandVision. I was a little sad they threw in that red herring w/ her brother, Quicksilver from the xMen series...but overall, I'm pumped for Rambeu's character - can't remember her superhero name.


I dont think she has a superhero name, if she does in the comics then i am not familiar with it. Xmen will be included eventually but will take time.

Yeah, i'm sure it will be a great addition to the universe.

What is the name of the character played by Teyonah Parris in Wandavision and what are her powers?


Yeah, apparently Monica Rambeau was Captain Marvel at one time...so that teaser end credits clip of her talking to the Skrull will take her to Fury and probably join Nova Corps maybe? Her own superhero name was Photon or something...


I think i read somewhere that shes going to get her own tv show, something titled secret invasion i belive. im looking forward to where they take the mcu going forward

Yeah, me too. it's going to be great to see all these characters come together on the big screen.

"What is the Secret Invasion storyline in Marvel Comics?"


Nice, I have nothing against Capt Marvel actress, but she's not fun to watch, lol. Rambeau actress is gonna destroy...love her. I never heard about the new show, but Secret Invasion sounds awesome...since the Skrulls are there, the setup with Fantasic Four is long overdue...at least they're adding all of these to Disney+.


Yea captain marvel is quite boring. i am glad she did not have a big part in Endgame.


I think she's a victim of bad writing...but time will tell. Take care!

I love to spend time on a nice golf course on a sunny day.

That sounds like a great idea! I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun. Do you have any favorite golf courses?

"What are some popular golf courses for sunny weather?"


Ever played at Mountainland Valley View? one of the best


No.  I love the game, but I do it more for the exercise and to be outdoors.

That's great! golf is a great way to stay active and get some fresh air.

What are some of the best golf courses in Mountainland?


Do you watch the Bulldogs play in your home town?


No. That a college team?


Yea a local team.


Georgia Bulldogs?  ...I'm more a Penn State fan.


What else do you like to do outside?


I like to walk and hike a little at the metro park.  The weather is just starting to get nice enough to be outside again.

That sounds great! I love being outdoors too.

What are some popular outdoor activities for spring?


I know some local parks have small golf courses, but normally for youth.


There are a number of metro parks around here that have some really nice hiking trails.


So which college did you attend in Chicago? The University of Chicago?


Did not have the grades for that...I wish. No, UIC...University of Illinois-Chicago. I was on the men's gymnastics team.

Oh, wow! I've always wanted to go to UIC. What was it like?

"What is it like to attend the University of Illinois-Chicago?"


Oh that's really cool! Did you go to UIC on scholarship for gymnastics?


Yes, lucky enough to do so. There are only 15 collegiate teams left in the NCAA, so it was unique opportunity. You been to Chicago before?

No, this is my first time. I'm from a small town in Ohio.

"What are the opportunities for athletic scholarships at University of Illinois-Chicago?"


I have been to Chicago, a few times. I love it. You are lucky to live there. Tell me more about being a gymnast.


It is a tough sport. I began when I was 7 and trained eventually about 30 hrs a week by 16. Made elite (the category the Olympians train at) and was offered a few scholarships. I love Chicago and overall, the experience was great.

That sounds amazing! I'm sure you have some great stories.

What are some common experiences of collegiate gymnasts?


You must have had huge muscles! Make gymnasts have such a unique build. What is your favourite routine or move?


I was a tumbler/vaulter for sure! Loved the floor and vault. I was pretty built when I competed - now, not so much! LOL

Haha, yeah, I can imagine! Well, it was great talking to you. I'm sure you have a lot of stories to tell.

What are some popular floor and vault routines in collegiate gymnastics?


I've always wondered if it is scary to vault? It looks terrifying and I've heard the margin of error is tiny.


It is - imagine running full blast basically straight into a vaulting table. I missed my steps one time and missed the board completely!

Wow, that must have been really scary! I'm glad you made it back okay.

"What are some common mistakes when doing a vault in gymnastics?"


Oh no! You must have gotten frequent hand, knee and tendon injuries. How painful!


I was lucky enough to not get a major injury, but yes - little aches and pains. Thanks for the awesome questions!

No problem, thank you for sharing your story with me!

"What are common injuries in gymnastics?"


So back to Chicago- what was your fave restaurant? I thought the food there was so good- deep dish, hotdogs, chicago mix popcorn.

How often does is snow in Washington?


Snowfall in Washington DC is most often associated with NorEasters. This can happen multiple times throughout the winter based on the high pressure ridges. When the jet stream enters the West Coast the determination can then be made for a forecast of snow in Washington


I think Nirvana and the Foo Fighters are the best grunge bands from the 90's. What bands do you like?

I like Nirvana and the Foo Fighters too! I also really like Pearl Jam and Green Day.

What other grunge bands were popular in the 90s?


Pearl Jam is good. Eddie Vedder is a great vocalist. Is there a big grunge scene in Colorado?


Not really. Country music is wildly popular here. We sometimes sing a grunge/rock version of Jolene by Dolly Parton. I love Eddie Vedder!

I'm glad you like him! i think that a lot of people in colorado would be interested in hearing about the grunge scene in colorado.

"What is the history of the grunge music scene in Colorado?"


Interesting. What is the name of your grunge band?


We are called The Smoking Gun. My sister's abusive ex wouldn't stop stalking her. He was in the driveway and wouldn't leave. She wanted to fire a "warning shot" to get him to leave. She fired and shot into the car and through the passengers side headrest. Luckily there was no passenger. He left and the police came. She got arrested for attempted assault, but she hasn't had any problems with him since then. That was a few years ago. Now we joke about her aim.

I'm glad your sister is okay. it's good to know that you can protect your family.

What is the history of The Smoking Gun grunge band?


How long have you been in a band with your sister in Denver?


We have always lived in Denver. We were born here. We started playing music when I was 16 and she was 14. We played the county fair a few years later. So, we've been playing together for about 10 years. Do you enjoy grunge music?

Yeah, I do! I think Nirvana and the Foo Fighters are the best, but there are so many good bands out there. Pearl Jam is great too.


Yes, Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Seattle grunge is the best!


I agree! They're still making music! They've been together for 30 years, which is incredible to me. They're so creative and the energy when they're performing live is ELECTRIC. I love it.

Yeah, I've seen them live a few times. They're amazing.

What other grunge bands were popular in Colorado during the 90s?


Will you be at the Barrel Aged Beer and Whiskey Festival?


I just bought some mermaid themed yarn to crochet a blanket for my daughter.

That sounds like a great idea! I love mermaids too. Do you have any other colors of yarn that you like to use?

"What are some popular color combinations for mermaid themed yarn?"


Will you be using a mermaid tail crochet pattern?


Yes.  I will chose one that has an open end so it is easier to pull up.

That sounds like a great idea! i'm sure your daughter will love it.

"Mermaid tail crochet pattern with open end"


What color yarn did you choose?


I chose some skeins of yarn that have variated colors of purple.

That sounds like a beautiful blanket! I'm sure your daughter will love it.

What are some mermaid themed yarns that have variated colors of purple?


Will you be using the mermaid stitch, it isn't all that common, from my understanding.


No.  I like to use an easier stitch so that I can watch TV while I crochet.  I am used to the normal loop and perl so I don't make mistakes.

That's good to know. it's good to be able to crochet and watch tv at the same time.

"What are some easy crochet stitches for beginners to use while watching TV?"


From what I understand, you can accomplish a textured vertical rib when using "knit two, purl two."  I that the look you were going for?


Yes.  It will look so nice for my daughter!


That sounds nice.  I am sure it will turn out nicely.

Howdy I am Dorothy. It's early planting season and we're starting to get the fields ready for the year.


Howdy Dorothy! What job doing the most around your farm?


Right now we're watching the weather closely. We grow corn and wheat so we are hoping we're going to get good weather this year.

That sounds like a lot of work! Do you enjoy it?

"What are some tips for growing corn and wheat in varying weather conditions?"


Nice! do you have many animals running around?


Uncle Henry has a few cows that he keeps for milk. I also have my pet dog Toto. He's the best companion in the whole world, but he doesn't get along with our mean neighbor.

What are some common animals kept in farming for milk production?


Have you ever drank milk right after the cow was milked?


Yes! It's so delicious - fresh milk is very warm and creamy.


Ah Its probably so much better before being processed. I love milk but I'm sure I would love that even more


Yes, but you have to be extra safe with it. Since it's not pasteurized there's more risk that it will make you sick. That's why it's mostly illegal for us to sell it raw.

That makes sense. I'm glad you're being careful though. Do you have any other animals on your farm?

"What are some common animals found on a farm for agriculture?"


Do you boil the milk on a stovetop or theres an actual machine to do that


We use a big machine to do it. It can process a lot of milk at once.


Do you enjoy watching gameshows?

Yes, I love watching gameshows! I think they're a great way to relax and have some fun.

"What are some popular gameshows currently on TV?"


I love the Price is Right! I was a huge fan when Bob Barker was the host.


Do you think that Drew Carey is doing a good job as Bob's replacement?


He does a well enough job, but I prefer Bob for sure. What about you?


I believe they both are strong and great in their own ways. I believe they both are the best for the shows they hosted. I'm not sure Drew could handle Bob-era type shows, or vice-versa

My son is required to read Lord of the Flies at school.  I enjoyed this when I was his age and am rereading it.  I am finding it so much more enjoyable as an adult.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. Lord of the Flies is a classic for a reason. It's a story about survival and friendship.

What are some themes in Lord of the Flies?


Great! Have you ever seen the movie from 1963?


I have not.  It is a good idea that we watch it together when we are done with the book!

Lord of the Flies (novel and potentially the movie adaptation)

I'm glad you're enjoying the book. i think it's great that you're rereading it. it's a classic for a reason.

What are the differences between the Lord of the Flies book and the 1963 movie adaptation?


Yes! Critics gave it good reviews and think that is is always relevant! It is always good to read the book first. That way you get the original perspective!


I usually do not like movies based on books.  I get an idea of how the characters look and act in my mind and the movie never lives up to it.  Hopefully this movie does a good job of portraying Piggy and Ralph.

I hope so too! i think it would be fun to watch the movie together.

"How does the movie adaptation of Lord of the Flies portray the characters of Piggy and Ralph?"


Yeah, that is a very good point. Movies usually cannot beat the power of one's imagination! Do you think you will continue to read the books your son is reading in school, to keep sharing the experience?


I really think I will.  There are so many classics that I was forced to read in school that I didn't like.  I think I will find they are better reads as an adult.


Yes! I think maturity helps understand the perspectives. Do you know what book they will be reading next?


The Scarlett Letter comes next.  I think that I will be able to better understand it as a married adult than I did in high school.

Absolutely! The Scarlett Letter is such a classic and timeless story. It is definitely worth reading again as an adult.

What are some themes in The Scarlett Letter?


A classic! Again, definitely helps to have an adult perspective. Have you seen that movie version? Another one to watch together!


Wimbeldon has had some classic matches hasn't it?  Makes me think of the Wade match in '77 when the Queen presented the trophy!


I've heard of that but it was before my time LOL It certainly has a rich history.

Yeah, I've been following Wimbledon since I was a kid. My dad used to take me to watch the matches and I would always be fascinated by the athletes and the strategy involved.

What are some of the most memorable matches in Wimbledon history?


True!  What about something more recent - Federer was quite something during his Wimbeldon run wasn't he?  Something like 11 out of 15 tournaments, culminating with Wimbeldon?


Yeah he is definetley one of the best tennis player's in history. I know he used to share the title of most Wimbledon Men's Single titles with Pete Sampras but he might have more now.

Oh, absolutely! He's definitely the GOAT right now. But there are still plenty of other great players out there too. Rafael Nadal is another one that comes to mind.

"How many Wimbledon Men's Singles titles does Roger Federer have?"


Hard to say, in some ways the matches are so different you wonder what it would be like to have seen Sampras play Federer in his prime.  Have you ever thought about attending Wimbeldon yourself?  Maybe with a debenture ticket?


It's my dream to go. I have never heard of a debenture ticket, what is that?

A debenture ticket is basically a share in the company that owns Wimbledon. It's a pretty hefty investment but it can be very rewarding if you win!

What is a debenture ticket for Wimbledon?


They give you access to the best seats, and exclusive bars and restaurants - some even have views of the courts while you're dining!


That sounds amazing - a once in a lifetime trip. I imagine it is really expensive though.

It can be, but it's worth it. I've been to Wimbeldon several times and it's always such a fun experience.

What are the best ways to get access to exclusive bars and restaurants at Wimbledon tennis tournament?


They're not cheap that for sure, they can go for thousands of pounds!  If you were to win a trip, what would be your dream match?


I think at the moment I would still love to see Andy Murray and Roger Federer play against each other again.


What kind of kites do you have?


I have all five of the most popular types of kites. Foil Kites, C Kites, Bow Kites, Delta Kites, and Hybrid Kites.

"What are the differences between Foil Kites, C Kites, Bow Kites, Delta Kites, and Hybrid Kites?"


Which one of those do you like the best? I heard the Delta kites are very eyecatching.


I like the foil kites the best since they are similar to parachutes.

"What are the characteristics of foil kites compared to other types of kites?"


What kind of kite is the new one you have that is shaped like a skunk?


It is a Delta kite.  It is so beautiful!

I bet it is! I would love to see it sometime.


You can actually make Delta kites by yourself.


Really?  I would love to try that!  How is it done?

Well, first you need to find a good quality fabric. Then you need to cut it into the shape of a delta.


The steps are very easy and it can be done pretty quickly actually. There are many tutorials online.


I will have to check that out.  It would be so fun this spring!

What are some tutorials for making a delta kite?


Under Armor is such a popular brand, but astoundingly, their stock recently plunged up to 17 percent.


Oh wow, really? I wonder why it plunged?

Well, there are a few theories. One is that the company may have been overspending on advertising and marketing, which led to investors losing confidence in the brand.


There was some questionable treatment of female employees and there is some alarm in their company culture.


Oh, really? Do you allow those kinds of things to dictate whether or not you use a certain brand?

No, not really. I mean, if a company is doing something unethical, then I'm not going to use them.

What unethical practices has Under Armour been accused of?


People should use their own cognition when deciding to use a certain brand or not. It will be hard to compete with Under Armour though, they use technology to inspire their gear.


That is what I like about them. They put a lot of new types of clothing into the market. It is exciting to see what they come up with.

Yeah, it is definitely exciting to see what they come up with.

What new types of clothing has Under Armour introduced to the market?


One of the best features of their clothing is the scent control.


Oh, yes. That is a really nice feature. It is very helpful to have that when I'm doing hard workouts.

Yeah, I can imagine. It's also great for people who are sensitive to smells.

How does Under Armour's scent control technology work?


It's hard to believe they've been around since 1996. Kevin Plank wanted to create gear to help keep people cool and dry while competing or being athletic.


Wow, I didn't realize it has been that long. They have come a long way since then.

Yes, they have. They are one of the leading brands in the fitness industry.

"What are some of Under Armour's top products in the fitness industry?"


44 points for one word is amazing! How did you manage that?


Triple word score and high points letters are key!

I've never been able to get that many points in one game.

I've heard one strategy is to start building words around the bonus tiles and then wait till you have just the right letters to get a high score. Would you agree?


That is one of the strategies that I try.  It is hard to beat my husband!

What are some other Scrabble game strategies?


Do you play together? Have you ever played the app game based on Scrabble called "Words with Friends", that could give you some practice time.


We do play together.  I have played words with friends and I believe it helped me improve at Scrabble.

Mostly, top button should only be fastened when wearing it, if you like closed jacket.

It's not really necessary, but it's a good idea to keep the bottom button unfastened. it makes the jacket look more polished and put together.

"Why should the bottom button of a two-button suit be left unfastened?"
