IMHO doing a Dallas turn by undoing S10's cliffhanger as a dream of Scully's would be a cheap way out IF that's all they did - But insofar it was a prophetic dream, it adds serious weight to Mulder & Scully's work on the X-Files

A lot going in the episode? No kidding!! --
35 Things We Learned In "My Struggle III"
So, even tho I'm totally turned off and pissed off by that turn of events, I should watch the rest of the episodes of Season 11 anyway?
Well, ok, I don't think I deleted them...

Daily print newspapers? (Not quite gone, but getting there)

Jobs? (It's only a while off yet before AI & robots take over)

Reality? (AI & bots run the real world & we all live virtually.)

Sounds like The Matrix to me.

Not just penny candy, but I remember some candy was 3 pieces for a penny!

Wanna get a youngling to scratch his or her head? Next time they express an opinion, say "Here's a dime go call someone who cares" :D

On The Subject Of Coinage

Post by Riddick » 08-07-2018 12:18 AM

Would You Believe a majority of coin and numismatic experts surveyed in 2015 expect the penny to be phased out by 2026? AND as it's also being produced at a loss, there's an argument for doing the same with the nickel?

No pennies? No nickels? What are we gonna do, say "A dime for your thoughts"!?
