You can re-sell through the One Buffalo/Ticketmaster app. And now you can do it for less than face value. Used to be I could not go below a certain value on Ticketmaster. You could on Stub Hub though, this was when we still could get paper/print at home tickets.

Start a thread announcing you're leaving for a while and don't know if/when you may come back. Then post in it every day asking if people missed you yet. That'll give you an idea of who cares and worries about you.

So each time the score changes, there's a payout?

How many levels are there with baseball? I know of at least three.

Maybe if I hadn't said "***** you and any PSL's you try to charge me" they would have invited me.

Did the patient survive? That's the important thing.

Back when ATM's would automatically give you a receipt, some people would just leave them sitting on the machine or in the trash nearby. So I'd pick up the ones with high balances, then use those to leave my notes.

Now they're after Hyundai and their Super Bowl commercial... https://www.comicsands.com/hyundai-puts-its-foot-in-its-mouth-after-pissing-off-vegans-with-their-super-bowl-commercial-2628009322.html

It was pretty obvious that unless the Rams somehow won, that Edelman was going to get MVP.

Did a $1/square with the in-laws. We ended up only "selling" 56 of the 100 squares, but even then, with the low score, I won one quarter, and my sister in law won the other three.

I've had an account with USTVNow for years that does the same thing, but not restricted to living in certain cities. You have to pay to get the non-OTA channels, and no, I've never been in the military. http://watch.ustvnow.com

That reminded me of one former co-worker, we'll call him "Tim". He was filling in for one of our regulars employees at a customer site. (We did IT work via contracts with companies) My friend calls me and ask if I can look on ebay and see if Tim has any auctions for laptops. I takes me less than two minutes to find he has several up there, all the same model. Bells are already going off in my head before I can provide my friend with this info. Sure enough, Tim, when he was filling in at the customers site, was stealing laptops from their storage closet, brand new, in the box, hadn't been given out yet to the employees. And in order to get into the closest, he had to use his own swipe badge, then posted these online under his own name. And the cost was enough to just push it over into felony status. Plus looking at his auctions, his wife was also stealing from her job and selling stuff too.

I didn't know you could buy half a square in a pool.

Find a local storage place that regularly does auctions. Get the smallest/cheapest unit you can and just toss the boxes in there. Get in touch with the auctioneer, and tell them you want to include your unit in the next auction, and will split half of whatever they bring in for it. Make sure the boxes say "valuable, do not throw away" on them. If anyone has the Peerless Price Stadium Club #81 card and wants to sell, I'll give you 25 cents for each one, looks like this...

Typically $10-30. But this year no one I know that usually does pools is doing them. I might do one for the relatives coming over tomorrow, but keep it small, say $1/square. That'd still pay out $25/quarter.

Story from an install a former co-worker was on. He was at a red-head fast food doing an overnight install of a new point of sale system, which involved running new network cabling. Goes and moves one of the ceiling tiles in the little office area, and take out bags start raining down on him. He and his helper look in a few and they're stuffed with cash. He calls the store manager, and is told they'll be right over. The store manager shows up with the district manager and store owner. They collect the bags and start counting all the cash from the bags. Turns out one of the assistant managers, whenever they were closing, was having drawers come up short. They could never prove it was him, but since it was always his shift, he was fired. Turns out the cash they found in the ceiling matched the overall amount that had been taken over the time he was working. He just never had the opportunity to get it out of the store before being fired. Another former co-worker story, same chain. He's working the first night on the install (they typically took two nights for the whole install) and notices the store DVR for the cameras was not working, and sees it's a simple fix, so he gets it running. Next day, he gets a phone call to come back to the store. There's the store manager, district manager, and one of our company bosses. They start asking him about money missing from the safe. He denies it of course, and tells them to check the cameras. They say the cameras haven't worked for months. He tells them to check, because he fixed it the night before. They look and see one of the assistant managers, who knowing my coworker was there alone, comes in after CW leaves, but before the opening shift arrives, coming into the office taking money out of the safe, and leaves, because he thinks the DVR is not working and they'll accuse my CW.

Just finished the Italian Dip, will do the Sausage Dip tomorrow. Pizza and wings are ordered. Wife is making the cheese tray and veggie tray. Also doing meatball sandwich sliders. Other guests are bringing stuff, not sure what.
