CLUELESS FOR 500

 Querry: You need to set a video conference meeting. What App/Platform are you using? 

If you are 98% of the normal and intelligent world, you are sending a Zoom link. 

BUT, if you are an obstinate doofus, who wants to be different and make things difficult for everyone else, then you use Microsoft Teams. 

Now, here's the easy/tough part. Which entities fit the above description? 

Time for a little Jeopardy. (Cue music) 

Jeopardy Contestant: "Ken, I'll take clueless entities for five hundred." 

Ken Jennings (host of Jeopardy) "And the answer is, these two organizations are so difficult, clueless, and out of the mainstream, they use Microsoft Teams instead of Zoom." 

Jeopardy Contestant: "Umm, uhh, who is the United States Government, and ummm....hmmmm...."

Ken Jennings "Five seconds" 

Jeopardy Contestant: "And..ahh...hmmm. Oh! The Eleventh Judicial Circuit of Miami! Whew." 

Ken Jennings "Correct! And just in the nick of time."

Jeopardy Contestant: "I'll take clueless entities for a thousand."

Ken Jennings: "This clueless entity's Teams service is currently down...again."

Jeopardy Contestant: "Umm...who is the Eleventh Judicial Circuit?"

Ken Jennings: "Correct. We threw you a curve ball with the last two answers being the same." 

Yes folks, your favourite Miami Judge cannot answer emails, write DENIED on their MS Word program or check in with other judges on Teams because their server/program ain't working (add your favourite pun about the user also not working as usual.) 

So currently, the US Government is closed, and Miami Judges cannot use their Microsoft products. How will the civilized world survive? 

But no worries, Nvidia ran nicely today so all is right with Rumpole's world. 

TNF

Nice game on tonight. Giants at Eagles. The Philly squad is coming off a letdown loss this weekend, while the Gints had the game against New Orleans as much in hand as a judge grabbing the last free po-boy off the tray at the buffet. But the Giants blew the game, and Rumpole's bet. 

The  Giants are getting 7.5 and that may be enough for a backdoor cover with a later TD, but the better play is the over 40. 

We are also trying to rebuild our bankroll which has been seriously hurt by the Phillies and Yankees by picking under 36.5 yards rushing for  Giant QB Dart, over Barkley rushing for 83.5 yards, and just a few few dollars on Gints rookie Skateebo rushing for over 46.5 yards. 

With a couple of hard seltzers and a Di Fara pizza, we are starting the holiday weekend early.
