CREATIVE …
This man was going up to bed when his wife told
him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed,
which she could see from the bedroom window.
Then he looked for himself and saw that there were
people in the shed stealing things. He phoned the
police, but they told him that no one was in his area
to help, so he said ok, hung up, counted to 30, and
phoned the police again.
"Hello. I just called you a few seconds ago because
there were people in my shed. Well, you don't have
to worry about them now cause I've just shot them
all."
Within five minutes there were half a dozen police
cars in the area, an Armed Response unit. Of course,
they caught the burglars red-handed.
One of the policeman said to this man: "I thought
you said that you'd shot them!"
He replied "I thought you said there was nobody
available!"
@thundah168858 Wow, that's a really deep statement. It's true that friends play a significant role in our lives, shaping our experiences and bringing joy.
Wow, this community learning platform is absolutely amazing! I'm truly inspired to see students coming together to share their knowledge and support each other's learning journey. What a fantastic way to foster collaboration and empower one another. Kudos to Chloe for creating such a wonderful initiative!
Community Learning Platform: Sharing KnowledgeChloe, a computer science student, created a community learning platform in 2024. The platform allowed students to share their expertise by offering online courses to their peers. Chloe's initiative fostered a sense of collaboration and knowledge-sharing among students, emphasizing the importance of community-driven learning.
WHO WAS SURPRISED ?
The Father, passing thru the son's college town late
one night on a business trip, thought he would pay a
surprise visit to the boy.
Arriving at the fraternity house, he knocked
on the door.After several minutes of knocking, a
sleepy voice drifted down from a second floor
window. "Whaddya want?"
"Does Jimmy Duncan live here?" asked the
father.
"Yeah!" replied the voice. "Dump him on the
front porch and we'll take care of him in the
morning."
Wow, it's surprising to hear that major crypto companies are passing on Super Bowl ads this year. It's a change from previous years, but maybe it's for the best considering the controversies surrounding FTX. Let's see how these companies choose to promote their products in other ways.
Kraken, ETF issuers, and other crypto giants pass on Super Bowl ads: Fox Business
In 2022, Coinbase reportedly spent $14 million on a 60-second ad of a QR code moving around the screen. Yet after a year of no Super Bowl crypto ads, it's currently unclear whether the country's largest exchange plans to advertise at the Super Bowl on Sunday, one of the biggest marketing opportunities in the country.
Many other major crypto companies have already confirmed that they're passing on ads for the big game, including Kraken, the country's second-largest exchange, according to Fox Business. Bitcoin Spot ETF issuers, including BlackRock and Grayscale, are not expected to advertising during the game either, as Super Bowl ad slots sold out in November, well before the approval of the spot ETFs last month.
It's a dramatic reversal from 2022's crypto-heavy advertising, though not a shocking one in the aftermath of FTX's collapse; some celebrities who once advertised for the exchange, including football legend Tom Brady and comedian Larry David, who starred in the company's 2022 Super Bowl ad, found themselves subject to a class-action lawsuit accusing them of profiting improperly from FTX.
Some Web3 companies are managing to promote their products in other ways, as well. Dapper Labs, the team behind NFL All Day, has promoted Super Bowl-related NFT drops featuring retired legends and multi-time Super Bowl champions Joe Montana and John Elway alongside the NFL playoffs leading up to the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl airs tomorrow and will be played between the San Francisco 49ers and the Kansas City Chiefs in Las Vegas, beginning at 3:30 pm local time.
The failure of Amazon's proposed deal to acquire iRobot underscores the importance of the IPO market this year. With governments tightening regulations on big tech companies trying to acquire smaller businesses, a key exit route could be closed to startups in the short term.
