Tony Bennett served in WW2.

And my google sleuthing turned up a surprising fact: Bea Arthur served in the marines from 1943-45.

I was listening to another podcast today and they were talking about Diana Ross. I had thought she had died a few years ago but thankfully she’s alive. She’s in her 70s so that’s not much of a surprise, but what shocked me was learning that she used to date Gene Simmons. WTF?

Only if he stops there.

Price Is Right Rules, closest without going over.

Betty White hit 99 + 348 days.
That's gonna be hard to beat, but if anyone can do it, Bob can.
Mark your calendars, Dec 12, 2023 is gonna be a sad day.

I can't help but be the a-hole here, but I've watched too much Price is Right to let this pass.

I've seen this joke make the rounds, but the closest you can get to a dollar without going over is a dollar. There is no option to spin again if you hit a dollar on the first spin, or reach the dollar on two spins.

In other words, the closest Barker could get to 100 without going over 100 is 100, not 99. And if he did hit 100, according to the rules he would be able to spin again to try and reach the bonus amounts.

Now, remember to get your pets spayed or neutered.

is it too old? if the 'edit' button is there i think you can change the title in the 'advanced settings' or something like that


if that doesn't work, maybe either 'report' the first post and ask a mod to change it or private message a mod asking them to change it

You killed Bob Barker with your blasphemous title.
