Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

From the comments on that:

Hello guys !
Does anybody have an idea on the following ?
I would like to have more results from a google search query.
If you look for the word "greenhorn" I get approximatly 500 results. Is there any possibility to get several thousand results ?

Wasn't there talk about more orthodox jewish writers for NYT? Maybe they're saying 1800s in the Hebrew calendar...

In case anyone was actually wondering, it's most likely phrased like that because 1800's is when "modern" pigeon racing dates back to.
Quote from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeon_racing#History
Modern pigeon racing originated in Belgium in the mid 19th century.
And 'at least' to acknowledge that the concept dates back farther.

Anyone that recalls this story should not trust their financials to Google... They are too big and integrated...
If people now have "digital lives", what Google can do is the equvelant of losing your house over running a stop sign.

Yep.

I would think you are referring to their actual checking accounts.
I would be interested to know if you still say that knowing the fact they are really just the platform that you are managing it through, while the actual bank and theoretically their own management system is separate.
