Western Kentucky’s schedule this year is absurd.
No home game until 9/26 (6 of first 9 on the road)
Opens on the road @ Nevada… then @ Georgia and @ Indiana in back-to-back weeks
Only 5 home games all year
Just 3 Saturday home games… 2 of them in November
Latest bye in the conference
Ran through it here with @redzone_cfb & @LFTGPod01 ⬇️
@RetroNewsNow I'm surprised that Heather Thomas fell off the face of the Earth after this, to the point where if you bring her name up now others would think you are confusing her with Heather Locklear
@nickfromnorwood@GoodmanHoops Yes, I enjoyed it myself. But they were never at neutral sites before. He said High Point versus liberty in Rock Hill, which is where Winthrop is.
We are putting the final touches on bringing the 24-hour marathon back.
Most of the games are already set.
We already released High Point-Liberty at midnight ET in Rock Hill.
Still have room for one more matchup.
Reach out if you have interest.
The hefty lefty, Jared Lorenzen was one of Kentucky most exciting players ever. He was a 4 year starter at Kentucky and threw for 10,354 yards and 78 touchdowns.
@RetroNewsNow Carson’s comic timing was impeccable. Look how he keeps Ames by his side and waits for the audience laughter to subside before delivering the punchline. A master at controlling the situation for maximum effect.
📺On April 29, 1965, Ed Ames, of the television series 'Daniel Boone,' demonstrated his tomahawk throwing abilities on 'The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson'
How does the @NCAA allow a school that plays basketball HERE to compete at the D1 level? My high school gym is nicer. And their baseball stadium doesn’t have bathrooms!
Bring back standards that keep dead-end schools like this where they belong.
@RetroNewsNow This snapshot is incorrect. Jan Michael Vincent (Airwolf) was the highest paid actor on prime time TV during this time period with a salary of $150,000 per episode.
@BestMovieMom Frank Yablans ran Paramount’s distribution unit during this period and was able to extract terms from exhibitors that maximized rental revenue for the studio and was rewarded for his efforts with the position of President which held from 1971-1974.
The Godfather (1972) yielded a massive $250M global gross on a tiny $6M budget. This financial explosion saved Paramount from ruin and technically proved that high-quality adult dramas could compete with big-budget spectacle films.
@BHoskins23@CollegeHoops Unfortunately, they had to play Michigan for a third time in the Final Four semifinals.The Illini had beaten Michigan twice during Big Ten conference play so both teams were very familiar with each other’s style of play. If they played either Duke or Seton Hall, perhaps.
@PrincessOfSummr@RetroNewsNow The network saw an exponential increase in ad revenue as a result of this demographic shift in their programming to a younger, affluent audience.
📺By April 27, 1971, CBS had axed six of its rural-themed series in what became known as the ‘Rural Purge.’ Despite strong ratings for shows like ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’ and ‘Green Acres,’ CBS made a strategic shift toward programming that tackled contemporary social issues
@Shiden_Kaizer@gen_z4961 It is possible the original charge for the rental went through but any subsequent charge did not if/when she made an extension to the original reservation.
@gen_z4961 I’ll fall for the engagement bait. Your payment needs to be confirmed before you can even get the car though Turo. Why don’t you turn the volume up so we can actually hear what’s going on.
@aakashgupta In all fairness, the pudding cup redemption served as character exposition in Sandler’s movie Punch Drunk Love. It was not the plot of the story.
In 1999, David Phillips bought 12,150 cups of chocolate pudding and turned them into 1.25 million free airline miles. Adam Sandler later made a movie about it.
He was a 35-year-old civil engineer at UC Davis when he spotted a Healthy Choice promotion offering 500 frequent flyer miles for every 10 product barcodes mailed in. Double the miles if you sent them in by May 31. Three weeks away.
Phillips ran the math nobody else did. The cheapest qualifying product was Healthy Choice individual pudding cups at Grocery Outlet. 25 cents each. That meant $2.50 of pudding bought 1,000 airline miles. The airlines themselves valued those miles at $20.
He drove a van across California with his mother-in-law, cleaned out 10 different Grocery Outlets around Sacramento, and stacked 12,150 pudding cups from his garage to his living room. When cashiers got suspicious, he told them he was stocking up for Y2K.
There was no way he could peel that many barcodes alone before the deadline.
So he called the Salvation Army and proposed a trade. He'd donate every cup if their volunteers peeled the labels first. They agreed. Phillips kept the barcodes. The Salvation Army fed people with $3,000 worth of pudding. And he claimed an $815 federal tax deduction on the donation.
He mailed the barcodes by May 31 and waited. Two months of silence. His friends told him corporations always renege on these promotions. His own kids asked if he got scammed.
Then a giant package arrived. Paper certificates worth 1,253,000 frequent flyer miles. Lifetime AAdvantage Gold status at American Airlines. $150,000 worth of flights.
The Wall Street Journal put him on the front page in January 2000. The London Times followed a week later. Paul Thomas Anderson read the coverage and built Punch Drunk Love around him in 2002. Phillips paid for his movie ticket with pudding.
Over the next five years he flew his entire family to 43 countries.
Net cost after the tax write-off: $2,325. That's $54 per country.
I lost my job yesterday.
Rent was due.
No backup plan.
Then I remembered I still had Claude.
Asked it:
“Analyze every top Polymarket wallet from the last 90 days and build me something”
$25 → $4,237 in one night.
It scanned 10,000 wallets.
Cross-referenced win rates, sizing, timing.
Found 7 traders whose edge wasn’t luck.
Then built an autonomous agent.
Not a script.
Not an if-then bot.
An agent that reads live news,
maps it to markets,
detects mispricing,
and exploits arbitrage across outcomes.
Sizes every position using Kelly.
I deployed it at 11:47PM.
Closed the laptop.
Woke up to:
$25 → $4,237
94 trades while I slept.
No input.
No hesitation.
No second-guessing.
That’s the game.
Information asymmetry at machine speed.
Wall Street pays millions for this.
I pay $20/month.
You only need Claude + laptop + 1 hour/day.

@AtomicAsphalt@CigsMake Fonda did a lot of drek in the final years of his career. People like his agent and his daughter Jane tried to talk him out of taking such parts but he liked to work. He lent the same professionalism to each performance whether good or bad.
