It was really underwhelming. It just tasted like water.
Looks like hippy water. Lol is that a speaker made of wood? And a bunk bed?
Plus, I’m not gonna drink black water. That’s just like, racist man. Speaking of which...

Looks like someone infused coffee into water. How brilliant. Can't wait for the millenials to start ordering cafe de agua.
Quote: teliotAbout 30% of the water we consume here in Santa Barbara comes from a desalination plant that opened about 2 years ago. We are one of the very lucky locations on the Southern California coast that has a stable minimum water supply. Montecito, where some of the really wealthy Hollywood folks live, is right next door and they didn't want any part of this water when it was being built, now they are begging for it.
What do they do with all the salt?
That's a great question! I don't know. Wait, let me Google it ...Quote: SOOPOOWhat do they do with all the salt?
Hard to believe the question is not answered here:

My best understanding is that the residue "brine" is piped several miles offshore, no doubt destroying some other delicate ecosystem.

BLK launched in like, 2008, so I really don’t think it ever caught on with the younger generation of yuppies.

You are SO CLOSE! ;) So close you can taste it! ;);That person is not me, however.
Quote: SOOPOOThis is agony to respond, but perhaps I have a little masochism in me........
There is a process called 'desalinization' which does take the salt out of ocean water, making it safe for human consumption. I believe there are countries (Israel?) that are actually doing this for the general public. But it is expensive to do, and uses a decent amount of energy.
But if Cardi B vouches for it, then we should divert funds meant for the wall to desalinization plants.......
People will buy lots of things if Science and Health Experts says it's good for your health, Celebrities are shilling for it, people are trying it /Praising it on Social Media, people are doing it in real life. Look at Charcoal. Charcoal USED to be mainly only for grilling delicious food on the Grill during barbeques, cookouts, etc, but in recent and current times, people are DRINKING Charcoal now and putting it in their hair and on their SKIN! Just because of the reasons I listed in my first sentence of this post.

It's not Kentry. I'll give you an even bigger hint. Kentry is supposedly his REAL name. The name in my Code is a NICKNAME. ;)

Your code name is Nick?
I'm really confused now.

No, the code in my name is NOT Nick, LMAO, WTF! :D :/ I'll give you an even bigger hint. Your answer is kind of in the right Ballpark. ;) See, Nick is the nickname for Nicholas. ;) And I'll give you maybe the biggest hint. The name in the code is an ACTIVE WOV Member that has posted at least once in this very thread. ;)

LMAO! :D Fun Fact. I remember on another website mentioning how much Slim Shady and Eminem looked alike and said something like,"Are they twins?" LMAO! :D I was being facetious(I wonder if that's the right word). I got a reply IIRC, something like,"Now you're just plain Trolling. " LMAO! :D

I feel SOOO stupid. All those clues and I couldn't figure it out until now.
At least I know I have it right now. The correct answer is Hard Rock Stadium!

Oh my God! O.O NOOOO! I'll give you some more big hints. Your Ancestors may have been called this as a nickname in like 1800. It is the Company name of delicious hot dog and fries. ;) If you answer Snyder(Snyder's Of Hanover is a PRETZEL Company) I will SCREAM! ;)
I was leaning towards Ballpark.Quote: vegasJust a stab in the dark here, a real longshot. Is it Nathan?

Nah, it can't be. That would be way too easy.
Quote: NathanIt is the Company name of delicious hot dog and fries.
Burger King? They started selling hot dogs and fries a few years ago.
But I can't see how that fits in with a ballpark.
I guess I'm just not very good with things like this.

Bingo! You got it! :D

Sometimes the easiest answer is the right answer. ;)
You have a certain condition that can affect one's speech. You have a better understanding of language than the ability to speak, which could result in social anxiety, which is probably why you can't go to the event.

Did Nathan ever say this for herself, and I missed it? Or are you doxxing her? Not much in between, unless it's your fantasy diagnosis.

Quadriga's posts add much to the forum (NOT!!!!). What are the odds quadriga is a banned certain user?

How is that doxxing?
Not Doxxing per se, but clearly describing a personal trait that only certain folk could be confident of. I reckon it does a disservice or discourtesy to Nathan. But she knows how to contact him if she sees fit to comment.Quote: gamerfreakHow is that doxxing?
Quote: SOOPOOQuadriga's posts add much to the forum (NOT!!!!). What are the odds quadriga is a banned certain user?
I'm not a sock of a banned poster. The odds would be high that I am, something like 10 to 1, if the admins or moderators adhere to the truth. I'm not trying to draw attention. However, you seem to be implying that the odds are low, like even money. If you call my bluff how about we go halfway and make it 5 to 1 that I was previously banned from WOV. I'd bet on myself and lay -500 against your +500 , or $100 to your $20.
7 posts before this one, most deal with the long history of the forum nobody in their right mind would bother investigating. Someone lurking long enough would have this knowledge, or someone that was told this history by someone that was a member. I don't know how you could prove or they could prove you were a previously banned member in the first place. If you had the same address or email address or used the same device, they might be able to do that. If you knew you were in another city with another email and another way of accessing the site, then you would know, you could not lose the bet, if you were a banned member. Sometimes people screw this stuff up anyways by linking the real and the fake by accident.Quote: QuadrigaI'm not a sock of a banned poster.

Long story short, I would not take a bet against you, I do not believe you are a banned member. I don't think you are a certain banned poster either.
I dont look at your signature.Quote: NathanOh, and to the people still wondering about the name in my Code Signature, I'll give you a final big hint. This person has their very own Corner on WOV. ;)

Look. Look with your special eyes. ;)
Quote: WizardTwo more days until pi day! :D I like to celebrate by wearing my t-shirt with pi to thousands of decimal places and eating a pie from Marie Callenders.
On that subject, how in the pre-computer age did they measure a circle exactly enough to be able to figure Pi? Seems to me if you are off by even a .0001 place then all of your calculations would be useless?
On that subject and assuming you like geek math questions, in a math class we saw a presentation of some guy way back that spent 20 years of something calculating Pi to I forget how many hundred places, only to be wrong about 2/3 of the way thru. Is this something a guy like this did in his spare time? Or maybe he was a professor somewhere and put in a few hours a day.
Quote: AyecarumbaIs there something to Nathan's Pick-4 strategy? Woman wins lottery 30 times in one day?
:) Good for her big wins. :) But although she did beat odds big time, I don't recommend playing STRAIGHT. I recommend Box for Pick Lottery Games.
