Someone else recommended House of Leaves to me recently as well. I'll check it out.
I am horrible about updating my Goodreads and it is such a great resource. I need to get on that.
Heck, my satellite pay tv service has pulled the local CBS and FOX stations over a retransmission dispute. The blackout has lasted about 50 days so far and my pay tv provider isn't giving me any billing credits for the major missing channels. Maybe my state's AG can put a little heat on them on behalf of all the people in my state not getting what we are paying for (and especially those in such rural areas they can only get the local network and local news channels from satellite as they can't even get them with an outdoor antenna).
I am going off now to indulge in some brain candy - 'Winter World' by A.G. Riddle
I say the star is Bryan Cranston. Aaron Paul can be written out and it won't affect the show much if Bryan is there.
I hate that too. I have gotten into the habit of at least skimming the consent page where they tell you what the survey is about, or some variation of that, and use that along with what I felt at the end of the survey to answer that question.
I bet there are a lot of coupling (work together, eventually relationship together) or marital affairs since you have lots of good looking women and men showing tons of skin and doing lots of kissing and makeout acting together.
I also wonder if they use it to see if you can weave some of the questions you answered together to try to come up with a reason for the survey so they can see if you might have been paying attention to the questions or just randomly clicking bubbles or moving sliders and have no clue what the survey might have been about.
I'm more cynical. I was thinking it would help them temporarily as their cash reserve spike from not paying anyone.I'll have to see how much my AMZN shares go up when you all convert to Amazon Gift cards and buy stuff on Amazon that you would have spent the money on elsewhere had it been in your bank account instead!
HIT Time: 3 mins - clicked right from this share to the survey and didn't have to panda. Thanks dareangel3!
It's a 893 billion dollar company, I don't think a few hundreds dollars means much to them.
its an 893 billion valuation. they don't have nearly anything close to that in assets or cash.It's a 893 billion dollar company, I don't think a few hundreds dollars means much to them.
from the AMZN annual report I'm looking at in my hands (eek, printed!) Dec 31 2018 was 32 billion in cash/cash equivs and 162.5 billion in total assets so the amount they could make floating a few hundred dollars isn't material.
