All right, let's get into the lesson Let's start it and I'm gonna put myself down at the bottom here as you can see I have a sentence up at the top and you have to guess one of the ten words For some of you, this will be easy for some of you. This would be difficult But everyone's gonna learn. Let's get started says my work is very blank I just add data to an online database My work is very blank. I just add data to an online database and our our choices are not monotonous Gracious terminate divulge vital fracture dreadful settle copious peak all of those All of those words You can you hear this sound? I don't think you can hear that sound So you just have to put the number my work is very blank I just add data to an online database monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture Dreadful settle copious and peak and let's see what the answers are for our first Vocabulary right away. How many it says one lolly lolly is tight It's easier to type the number because you're spelling menorahs. There's no word menorah on us dreadful maybe to Actually a lot of these there are Two of the two or three these are possible, but you have to guess the word I'm thinking of 117 dreadful from India vital Hello, I'll oh hello. I Think you dreadful five is vital Notness seven dreadful one one or seven vital also vitals very popular All right well You're all you're all correct so number one monotonous is possible and number five Vital is possible and number seven dreadful is possible But I think a key word here is I just I Just add data so I want to add but I'm kind of emphasizing that this work is not important So that's going to take away vital And then we got to think about the work adding Data to a database you only do that job. So Six is not the answer So Those three are technically possible, but I think the best answer here will definitely You could say dreadful, but I'm gonna go with Monotonous and that's a little bit difficult to spell and that's a little difficult to say monotonous and what does that mean? Never changing and therefore boring anything that is monotonous is Boring it's the same thing again and again and again and again and again and again and again that is monotonous So going back my work is very monotonous I just add data to an online database just adding data again and again and again and again Yes, you could describe that as dreadful, but the word I was looking for was monotonous Vital wouldn't work so much because I just Some other example sentences here the elevator music is monotonous So if you get an elevator you hear the background music that could be monotonous Please can tell me which accent is more used in the world British or American? I think British and American are probably the less or the least accents used to those in the world Those are probably not the most common English accents Monotone is a sound Fidar hello, hello Ratna. All right. Let's go into number two Or wait synonyms boring uninteresting dreary doll these are synonyms synonyms of monotonous Everyone repeat after me monotonous Monotonous Every day the same work in hobbies. That's every day. It could be monotonous where it's starting to become boring boring Monotonous what is monotonous in your life? Let me know in the chat All right now we'll go into number two. This one's a little tricky too. It is blank. I Will leave at nine o'clock It is a good decision monotonous spelling m o n o t o. There's four O's m o n m o n o t o n o u s I'll type it out in the chat. Maybe you can see it there Same old days monotonous not just something that is boring. It happens. Yeah, the same We wouldn't say the same old days Layla comes in with settle so the the the Can't speak The sentence says it is blank. I will leave at nine o'clock. It is a good decision And again the same list monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture Dreadful settle copious peak it is divulge snow nine copious snow And vital it is vital It is dreadful Kind of but i'm gonna give you a big hint. I did not use vital. I did not use dreadful here divulge no gracious No divulge. No dreadful dreadful settle uh Kong's that can you change the Form the tense three seven Greetings from canada You're in canada and greetings to canada terminate Terminate Three It is vital. I think if I put that in the full sentence It is vital that I that I leave at nine o'clock that would make more sense Uh, but the key word here is the the third sentence decision so this word Something similar to decision and i'm gonna go to the answer It is settled It is settled settle of course all of these words have multiple meanings and Layla and Layla and Layla came in with the proper verb form settled Which means to decide arrange or agree on something finally you're making a decision and you finally make that decision and then There's no nothing left to decide something is settled. It is settled Yeah, I'll know I know I'll I'll know now I'll know Mike's English labs here for support. Thank you, Mike. I need your support so Some other example sentences they haven't settled when the wedding is going to be so they there's a negative They haven't settled they haven't decided It's not completely decided when the wedding is going to be And the second sentence The details of the contract have not yet been settled. So again, we have not Finished deciding all the details of the contract. It is not settled. So you can use settled The decision is finally made so going back It is settled. I made a decision. I will leave at nine o'clock. It is a good decision It is settled synonyms Decide or determine That is settled All right, we're gonna go into number three E Blank I took Blank notes during the class I wrote 10 pages I took blank notes during the class. I wrote 10 pages Settle down is another expression Settle can be used in many ways. I do not go over every way A word can be used.

You will say if dreadful is okay Uh, this guy alex wants to use uh dreadful. Are we gonna allow dreadful? No, no the boss says no, we're not gonna allow dreadful for this one Boss says no All right. Oh, we got a lot of answers A lot of people put peak peak peak Peak peak peak the answer isn't definitely not peak. We'll get to peak later. The answer is copious What is copious? Copious I took copious notes during the look of the class. I wrote 10 pages It's an adjective it means in large amounts More than enough Your bosses can is cute May my boss is a small little teddy bear Copious large amounts So I took copious notes so many notes during the class I wrote 10 pages If you're sitting in a class and you wrote 10 pages of notes That's a lot of notes. That's copious So some people take copious amounts of selfies Now they take a lot of some tape people take a lot a lot of selfies But notice copious is usually grouped together With amounts of It goes together very well not always but it goes together very well copious amounts of Which means a lot More than enough Some people take copious amounts of selfies. Do you do you take copious? amounts of selfies and they I'm reading alex's your boss is kind of savage.  I'll talk to them later about that uh second sentence there they They drank copious copious amounts of beer A lot of beer too much copious kind of means more than enough more than enough Could copious be a synonym of vast Yeah, in in some situations it could be a synonym, but not exactly every time So better synonyms would be abundant Which means a lot Plentiful, which means a lot and ample, which means a lot. These are all great words To show a lot or a large amount of something Copious, I hope you're paying attention because we do have a test later No, I don't take copious amounts of selfies huge It's not really a synonym of big In a sense it is but Big is usually describing size Big huge the size my heart is huge The size of my heart, but copious is mainly about amounts I don't have a copious amount of vocabulary profuse yes, uh profuse Uh similar similar similar similar What are synonyms synonyms? Oh, sorry synonyms are words that have a similar meaning sometimes same meaning So copious is similar to abundant plenif plentiful ample Can I say amount of beer without s? Uh, I they drink um If you said I had some beer That is any any liquid any liquid is uncountable so If you wanted to say beers that would kind of mean bottles of beers I had two cans of beers two bottles of beer We can say copious amounts of liquids. It is possible in this case Too much yeah a large amount More than enough All right, we're gonna move on to the next one All right, there's a blank it says it is blank That you balance the four core skills When you study english What are the four core skills?

So gracious again You know, I asked her to marry me, but she didn't get upset. She was very polite and nice calm She was gracious when she said no, I'm sorry. I don't want to marry you Like if she said what are you crazy? That's not gracious, but she was like, no, thank you very much. I'm sorry, but I don't want to marry you So she was very gracious In these examples, you no longer give us any clues or cues to help us choose the exit. Yeah, I know Layla deal with it Layla, I'm going to tell you a secret This is not a real quiz It's just to help you learn With some more example sentences I do not know everyone's final score at the end So don't worry about it The sentences are not perfect number six They agreed to try to blank their dispute by negotiation They agreed to try to blank Their dispute by negotiation monotonous gracious terminate Divalge vital fracture dreadful settle copious peak A lot of people went terminate now terminate grammatically could be possible, but the usage Uh, a native speaker this this is why I'm asking this question Uh, because there is a difference Between term terminate and this other word. So I'm going to tell you directly the word here is not terminate and the people who are focusing on number eight are Going to be correct. So they agreed to try to settle Uh So you want to settle you want to make a final decision by negotiation You do not terminate something by negotiation. You just end something.  So there is a little bit difference Terminate is more abrupt without A settlement or without negotiation settle is kind of more of a planned ending similar So We always want to settle a dispute. That's always going to be together if we have a dispute some argument We settle the argument. We settle the dispute. So a native speaker Usually doesn't use terminate the argument terminate the dispute We will use settle So they agree to try to settle their dispute by negotiation Negotiation is when two people are talking to uh Agree on a final decision So they have to give and take to get a final decision Man, you're you're spamming. I will kick you out if you ask one more time Oh You cannot keep asking the same questions. That is spamming settle yeah terminate is a strong word to Finish cut settle is more of a A quieter ending a softer ending you settle you make a decision you arrange Terminate is very strong to end something All right, let's go on to number seven He suffered a blank skull He suffered a blank skull After a few years the controversy settled down Do settle and settled uh, it's it's in the same family Settle down has more of uh talking about your life settled down Not not active anymore, but settled just the word settle is more of a decision settled down is your life is You decided A certain Life Here i'm not explaining it. Well settle down to get in a comfortable position so you can settle down in a seat Or a quality of life so settle Is a decision settled down is different in that your mate your Your choosing some sort of position in life All right, I think most people will know this one. This is an easy one It should be fractured Your skull is your head bone And you fracture it you have something broken there That is a fracture number eight She took a quick blank in the oven to see if the chicken was cooked monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture dreadful settle copious and peak She took a quick something in the oven to see if the chicken was cooked settle down 10 Eight peak, okay 10 10 10 10 10 oh, I think everyone got this monotonous She took a quick monotonous. No She took a quick peak. So a clue you had a clue here quick quick peak I could have just said she took a peak in the oven, but I decided to add the word quick peak just to help you out grace Grace put prrk because the r is next to the e Peak peak peak she took a quick peak in the oven to see if the chicken was cooked So there's the oven. She just opened up looked close the oven very quick peak number eight Whoa Her rude rude words So rude not polite Her rude words blank the conversation Peep is a noise Not a looking very Greery says terminate Alex terminate elbow cough She says peak her rude words peak the conversation. No, that doesn't work I explained that earlier in the video grace. I cannot Teach that again. I I spent five minutes teaching it Dreadful. No, sorry do it fracture It's dreadful. No her rude words Terminated the conversation. She said something rude to me Immediately I end the conversation. I'm not going to talk to her She was speaking rude now There's no settle settlement or we didn't settle on an agreement so when we settle we kind of make a decision You know, there's some sort of thinking and process About a contract or a big decision and then we settle we make a decision Terminate is a quicker action. Just turn off turn on So in this case, we're only going to use terminate.  Oh nine quiz nine equals nine 10 copious terminate.  I was confused All right. See Robert Layla, I think five of the questions their answers would terminate. What do you think? I think at least three Now we're not finished yet. There could be a few more terminates Copious is a lot But not that's later. I already taught that I spent I think about five to ten minutes teaching monotonous something very bored and boring Number 11 a factory job can have blank work Number 11, we're almost finished here. Let's get through this test And then I have a big surprise at the end of this live stream a very very big surprise You guys do using the same word complainer Sleepwalker a factory job can have dreadful work. That is correct sleepwalker So anyone who said number seven like I said Number seven dreadful works for many of the test answers But in this case I don't want to use dreadful So dreadful can work, but I you know dread. I don't want to use dreadful for every answer So there's another answer that I'm thinking of And the other answer I am thinking of is we'll give it to Haman Shu that cure uh monotonous And yeah, of course factory job can be dreadful, but The word I am I want you to think about is monotonous So in a factory usually you're doing the same motion Again and again and again and again and again That is monotonous Not interesting very boring monotonous A factory job can have vital work. Well Zalek Abbasov why not five? I'll check the boss boss Yeah, this uh, Zalek Abbasov says why not five five is vital a factory job can have vital work. Is that okay? uh, he's thinking Uh-huh. Uh-huh the Zalek. Yep. The boss said yeah Certainly you can use number five vital. Thanks for pointing that out a job a Factory job can have vital work That works, but it's a little awkward But it could work boss said so Yeah, that's a different usage of settled ds. We didn't talk about that usage It's so will bond jovi. It's so hard to pronounce this word monotonous. I know a It's hard for me monotonous monotonous monotonous I think every oh has a different sound monotonous monotonous Mama mama monotonous I'm gonna want to help cute your dog. That's my boss Monotonous I explained that at the beginning of the video and here I explained it again. I explained it The boss got his favorites.  It is becoming a bit Hello That must be Japanese Welcome Yes, I teach IELTS on the other channel. You can find the link to the IELTS channel below this video I'll talk about that in a moment. We're almost finished. I have exciting news at the end So I eat rice every day.  This is not interesting. This is boring This eating rice every day is becoming monotonous every day rice. That's boring monotonous monotonous vital No, am I going to say vital eating? It is becoming a bit vital. That doesn't work at me It's monotonous copious. No It's monotonous. That's the best word It is becoming a bit Of course, if you said dreadful That can work if you said dreadful that dreadful Is an answer for almost every question on my test But again, let's try to let's try to stay away from dreadful Let's try to use these other words You can describe everything in life as dreadful 13 We have 15 questions. We're almost at the end here and then I have a big announcement Robin will never blank who he thinks is his best student Robin that's me will never blank who he thinks is his best student Monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture dreadful settle copious peak most words could But uh, Leila there are certain words that definitely a native speaker would choose so Grammatically some words work in some sentences, but those words would not be chosen by a native speaker I think most native speakers Looking at my test would choose all the words. I chose So that's That's something I cannot teach Leila how it's just something you have to learn by exposure More reading more listening then you will also understand. Okay We're going to use monotonous here or we're going to use terminate here. We're not going to use settle and things like that So Robin will never I think most of you Oh doha has doubt divulge question mark question mark question mark Don't you have confidence doha? divulge All right, we'll give it to larisio masapa Let's see if you're right And yes divulge So I have my best student, but that's a secret. I will never divulge. I will never tell you that secret number 14 Almost finished here almost finished You don't tell him that he is the best for you. It is correct. Yeah I don't I don't tell anybody who my favorite student is if I say who my favorite student is You are all going to cry It's not me I will never divulge Lolli Lolli You are wrong Leila you are correct After her release she gave blank information about her kidnapper After her release she gave blank information about her kidnapper monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture dreadful settle copious peak Now you could say uh copious But a native speaker would not use copious copious could work here grammatically it makes sense, but Usually when we're talking about information and important information Especially about the kidnapper Wait wait wait boss You know after looking at this again, I think copious could also work very well here. What do you think? There's the correct answer. I chose I'll show you boss Is Vital important information, but I think copious could also work. What do you think boss? Oh, yeah. Yeah boss says copious is also a good a good answer here. So if you put copious Great, but I was thinking vital To give vital information so if you put gracious information Grammatically it works, but a native speaker would not use gracious information and Faisal says dreadful because dreadful works everywhere. You give dreadful information Grammatically Faisal that could work, but a native speaker wouldn't probably not use dreadful information here Mike's English lab. I'm not smart enough to use some of these words Oh Mike Mike made this Presentation, what is he talking about? You made all these words. You chose these words, Mike copious I chose vital because what I was thinking is the She was released and then she gave vital information But if the boss said if you use copious, that's okay too Leong from mim are hello welcome Yeah, Mike made this presentation and there's so many mistakes if there's a mistake blame Mike And the last one I made this the last one because I I I know everyone wants to use their favorite word The last one says my financial situation is blank My financial situation is monotonous gracious terminate divulge vital fracture dreadful settle copious peak I don't even know the meaning of copious. Why did you put it in the presentation, Mike?  You're the most honest person You can tell everyone you made this Is my financial situation is gracious. No, we usually describe Personality as gracious. We do not Describe a situation as gracious. So thanks for pointing that out One or seven my financial situation. We don't usually describe a financial situation as monotonous Anna marina what a great student comes in the last two minutes of class My financial situation is vital. We wouldn't really use vital there But the correct word because I know everyone wants to use this word So I put it at last because it's probably the most common word in this video dreadful very bad My Now if you said, uh, may got Dreadful and this person divulge I could say I don't want to divulge my Financial situation Because dreadful is an adjective and divulge is the verb but here I needed an adjective So again, Daria may Uh, I needed an adjective to describe my financial situation and divulge is a verb My financial situation is dreadful not good Okay homework Do the quiz below this video There is a link After this video not right now after this video right now you should be liking the video That's your homework right now like like like like Just hit like once not two two times Three times is okay.

Hey everyone and welcome to Noor's Cove. I'm Yoshida. You guys please forget me. I know it's been a while. I'm praying that I have enough memory to do this because yeah so I know I'm late for a weekly budget and I'm kind of considering just going to do the weekly budget and then post it later but I'm going to do a monthly I believe. I've been skipping monthly so let's do a monthly. I feel a little lost here. Hold on. I don't matter my right month. Let's see that was made. Let's do June. This shouldn't take us too long to do. I'm going to go to my monthly. Actually I'm going to pull out. I'm in personal rings now y'all. So I'm going to pull out my monthly here because I've already filled this in because I was playing with this planner so I have bills in here. I'm going to try to be quick so that like I said I don't have to do too much editing and I don't lose my momentum so we're doing June 2023 and as always these can be found. These research can be found on my shop. So first source of income is here. I'm not I don't have any nail clients right now plus my nail area isn't ready. I call Norris Cove No Cove sometimes so Norris Cove will be my second and my next is Miscellaneous right now. I don't think I have anything Miscellaneous for hair. Usually I guess it made around 4,045 some months I've been bringing them 4,500 or either five but I'm going into my slow season so I'm just going to put four pray that is good. No Cove has been doing really good. Last month I think we did around 1700 no take the back we did 1600 the month before that April we did around 1718 so I'm going to I'm liking that number but I'm going to put I'm going to go with 1600 it's based off of last month and so that would be 5,600 but here's the thing most of Norris Cove's income it's not mine it's not for me to pay bills it pretty much goes back into the business I sometimes pay for things ahead of time so only thing I technically do is just pay myself back so I always kind of skip very little expenses but that's mainly for anyone who wants to use it I just didn't want to make it about myself but for me I just kind of try to put everything in here if I can't fit it here I'll hop over here so on the first we have CMP which I've already paid them I think they're like $47 I'm gonna put $47 I have Amazon that's $15.89 I'm not gonna worry about the dollar signs today what else also y'all I got another altar card that was due so I paid them and my intentions was to pay it off but of course with interest it was higher than what I paid so I did the minimum but I'll go back and eventually pay it off it's not that much it's like $160 $180 but that's fun um we have community I've paid them I did the minimum minimum minimum what is going on and that the minimum on them as well because again this is that time of year where it's slow for me I've had to dip into my envelopes you guys I still have a little cash in there as of today June 2nd but I dipped in it to pay my son senior dues all that great stuff um we got after pays y'all there's so much I'm not putting them in the budget we it's just ridiculous anyway Walmart is on the 4th I will do them I may have to add up I'm gonna put matter of fact I'm gonna put after pays over here because fortunately and unfortunately I am able to get some things I am able to get a few items using after pay for the budget box but uh I don't like that I really don't um that's about $30 for Walmart haven't gotten to that the fifth is credit one some of these I don't really need to have to write down credit one it'll probably be about the same so we're doing minimums around here because uh it just is what it is um on the 7th we have Canva um chase on the 11th chase it varies I'm not sure Canva I'm putting $14 chase I'm going to do 50 but it probably may be a little bit more let's see what else do we have here 15th is Capital One which now Capital One pays for my T-Mobile so I gave them roughly about 200 a month my T-Mobile is 158 now that I have it automatically drawn from my Capital One so I'll send my Capital One money so I'll probably end up sending them 200 this month so on the 17th is Citibank which I think the last I looked at is $45 18th is Berkley's I gotta get rid of some of these credit cards Berkley's excuse me I'm going to do them at 50 the 19th we have T-Mobile um I'm not going to put them really in there because it's kind of coming out through Capital One but my T-Mobile bill now is 158 I mean automated not having any late fees the best thing I could have did I don't know why I didn't do this before 25th we have PayPal okay I did lose a little bit of storage but I had a lot of unnecessary apps PayPal 30 so I'll be quick oh I did forget my car note I have my car note here Ella I'm not ready to share that yet um I might since I'm doing the monthly um it's okay uh let's see Berkley's PayPal we have GoDaddy on the 27th GoDaddy GoDaddy is $7 and 41 cents let's see car insurance oh my god car insurance is a mess I just paid $5.27 I don't know they jump around um my life insurance is included on that as well so and I have two cars on there so that's why that's a little high we have Shopify which is like the 29th I'm just gonna put like 200 last month I paid more than that because of the shipping so I'm gonna leave it at 200 and I'm gonna do my numbers and that's pretty much it you guys this is what I pay out a month I'm gonna tell you I come in around 3,500 pretty much so that leaves me pretty much like 500 left um sometimes I'm at 3,200 it just depends but that's pretty much where I am you guys we got calculators we got calculators okay let's do a little math of what we have so far I'm gonna say this ain't right I forgot booth rent booth rent is a thousand dollars so we're at 246 um excuse me 2464 dollars and 36 cents and I have not added my car note so I'm gonna put that here 246 436 not edit my car note keep that in mind I know I said around 35,300 something is missing let me put um salon booth and I'm missing like $7 off of something $6 that I didn't add I'm gonna look over this but pretty much you guys this is what I got if this is what I'm paying and um I think that's why I have a little room because my car note like it's I'm just not ready to share it it will put me over the 3,000 mark I will say that um but um not much but um we have after pays and the firms and things like that I'm trying to get a hold of those because I do not like when people like that I just don't like so I'm now in the process of trying to um like when the first of the month comes because I gotta pay myself back and I'm paying back these after pays it's just hard to put the money aside but what I'm going to do I'm going to start putting like buying things with when everyone's money come out buying things instead of paying myself back so again back to taking a hit but I'll be buying things for the box and then it is what it is at that point so we are doing well in the box so we should be okay for now and paying those things down but it's about getting back out of debt again I'm not doing cash stuffing right now because I really just don't have it but I cannot wait to get back to it I'm actually taken from it but I can't wait to get back to it I am going to commit eventually to it but that is all that I have today you guys thank you so much for watching also don't forget if you are interested in these um inserts these budget inserts we have them in letter size all the way to pocket um they are available for a download in my shop they are listed below also we now have pink calculators we have white left and pink we

Welcome. I'm Jeffrey G. O'Brien. I direct the lunch poem series at Berkeley, along with Noah Warren. And we're thrilled to have Arya Aber here. We would be thrilled to have her any time. And this is a time. So we are thrilled. This reading is not a relief from what is happening in the world and in the nation. It's a reinvigoration of attention to all of the beauty and horror that is always transpiring. And certainly is transpiring now. Arya Aber's first book, Hard Damage, is a documentary work in the fullest sense, not in the subgenre sense only. Every moment in the book is a moment of fierce attention to both beauty and horror. Attention to language, to multiple languages. A kind of attention that is full of both various states of belonging and unbelonging. And being spread across multiple languages, multiple sites of origin and living, I think help make the poems listen to themselves as they inventory everything in the world. From plants to examples of U.S. imperialist atrocity and back again. I think it's clear that this book wants to understand everything else that is happening in every moment of its attention. So that attention is not ever some kind of isolated function that makes us forget. This is a book that wants to preserve memory and preserve present moments of attention in their fullness in a kind of radical clarity that is upsetting and inspiring although never only consoling. I wanted to just read one line that ends a poem in the early in the book, Dream with Horse, not a day passes that I pass as belonging here. I think it's an incredible line and incredible metonymy for Aber's project in that it passes from a kind of innocent idiom for a time, a day passing into passing as both belonging or a practice of attempting to belong or being seen as belonging whether or not one does. It's not only that there are two senses of past there, it's literally the passing from one sense of past to the other that I think shows all of the intelligence and moral force and self attention as well as attention to the world that is everywhere in Aria's work. A little bit later on in the book, we get a mention of the flower Alyssum, and it's right next to the word asylum. And I think there we can see the same kind of work happening. They have nothing to do with each other etymologically, but they sure look a lot alike when they're rendered adjacent. The final thing I'd say is that Aber renders everything adjacent to everything else, which is the truth of the world. And it requires something as simple as the inventorying of that physical world that is full of beauty, but also the political the geopolitical that is always around and within any of those acts of attention. I'm really glad that we're going to hear some of those acts performed for us so that we can listen to that listening and seeing. Please join me in welcoming Aria Aber. Thank you Joffrey for that beautiful, beautiful introduction. It was always a dream of mine to read at lunch post and it's happening over zoom right now, which is a different kind of situation that I imagine but I'm incredibly grateful for this, especially this week. I'm going to start reading them. Reading Rilke in Berlin into English I splintered the way my father clutched his release at the airport defeated and on American. It took me 12 strange springs to know nothing occurs out of a sudden. How do I let it go. The world has been prolonged for me, and the ghosts of childhood still civil aid, by which I mean, nobody has touched me on my innermost parts. At the accent reduction class, my teacher instructed me to invert my tongue like in love. So I lay at a pavement under your elegy in a bridge. The darkness the want to put inside me a perfect sentence. What would have Lou Salome done. I absolved every year around the sun, knowing that there is an animal smell hooked to a line leading past the border. I am not going to cross. So what is exile exactly. What exact to to. Father says power for our aloe for hello. Father says is good, don't come back, eat fruit, green card. If I could explain to him the difference between exist and exit, maybe others too will hear the law and a law. I asked my mother, where are you from. She smiled and replied, fine, how are you. Oh, I shove my hand right through the officer's mouth and ripped out his tongue. Then, under my pillow, I placed it and waited for it to bloom new my blood. I wrote this book in Wisconsin, where I experienced the most difficult winter of my life, and realized that snow was quite oppressive, and that inspired the next couple of poems that I'm going to read. Snow, how easy for snow to turn to ice for snow to disappear the light from the ragged frame of chestnut trees around the warehouse by what's left of wild chicory scraped sculptures, we pink dog pain hunger borders this land while snow turns all to immigrants. Snow salts the embankment where turtles wash ashore, literally hundreds of them frozen heart like grenades of tear gas thrown across a barbed wire fence. But who of their right will would ever want to climb that fence to live here.   Asylum worthless as my mother and nestled on her lap as I in love with the light of the first snow of my life, so odd and doubtful still of what lengths the frost with us to go and what shape it will then take. Asylum, even poverty can be glamorous if you insist. It's rusted on elevator floors so gilded I mistake it for a drink it. Mother burrows her face and my hair. She bites my skull for a hole. We try to integrate. It is a dream to have enough for a car. As one day will drive past palm trees to gas stations and by lemon salted almonds, by what she means one day will have a house. Our failures spread breadcrumbs into prayer beads. We are by default religious. Before I brush her wet face. I am still young. Who wouldn't be humiliated by a cold room the size of a casket teeth cracked with ice. But suddenly with her and my arms. I am no longer small.  I wish I could carry my mother my life's true love toward a mirror. As if her caravan beauty could console her. Huddled together like lovers and frost I watch ends march to her inflamed eye socket. A spectacular procession. God is what we lack a shelter for the fragile to pass through. Does this refugee can look like a life to you. On paper I have a birthright. The sadness framing my mother's eyes. This is meaningless. But it makes me invincible in theory. In theory my mother is not a tongue running along the coin lock of a shopping cart looking for the promise of more. But when did theory deposit me. When by me dinner. Come to me. Let me brush your face. Poverty contains by necessity poetry. Mother says. One step after another. To return to where we've come from what mean to mourn to mourn to mourning. Upstairs the blue uncertainty wafts its clouds like unfurled flags. The workers hand out flip phones great juice sleeping bags. So we remain silent in the fibrous shatter. Faithful to our gold feet. At night I sing a lullaby to mother cradle her in my arms. I feed her a spoonful of glass by mourning she will be a window. And because John free mentioned the poem. I think I'm going to read it dream with horse already November makes a full of me. Sun secretes its tacky yellow gauze on what the snow melt has divided slaughterhouse the domesticated knack. I am at a loss in the shadow of the spruces. I freeze a faint scent of equine. Taught as a tuning fork I meditate on the horse's heavy meat its nostrils glistening like a liver laboring to breathe. The real shackle of course is in my flesh but my mind's harness committing its slow violence through my eyes. Looking for a sign I smear on snow my sputum then hair. Not a day passes that I pass as belonging here. There is this American obsession with European cities. A quite romanticized obsession. Which to me as a person who was born and raised in Europe feels a little bit absurd because of course tourists ignore the underbelly of these glorified European cities. And my relationship to Paris in particular inspired the next poem. I have one funeral in Paris. The aunts here clink Malbec classes and parade their grief with musky expensive sense that whisper and elevators and hallways. Each natural passing articulates the unnatural.  But what do I know. I get pedicures and eat Madeline's while reading Swan's way. When I tell one aunt I'd like to go back she screams it is not yours to want. Have some cream cheese with that says another. Oh what wonder to be alive and see my father's footprints and his sister's garden. He's furiously scissoring the highest sense saying all the time when the teller researcher asks him how often do you think your life is a mistake. During the procession the aunts Wales vibrate wires full of crows and heavy wind. I hate every ballooned minute of it. God invented everything out of nothing but the nothing shines through said Paul Ballery. Paris never charmed me. But when some stranger asks if it stinks and Afghanistan. I am so shocked that I hug him. And he lets me his ankles briefly brushing against mine.  Over Skype I tried to document my mother's ball shaved youth. She has a surplus and truths and science has proven what it had to prove. Every helicopter screech I dreamt of was my mother's first.  And on the masjid school belt glow the ghost. An angel. No no. Who am I kidding. When I say God, what I mean is, I can barely stand to look at my mother's face. So what if I've never seen what she's seen. I took the shape of her 206 bones. I did not choose her eyes. Did not choose to mastic hate the ash of witness her crooked smile disclosing a swarm of flies. Yes, missiles held their named after ancient gods. Her a word of disputed route, maybe from irate beloved.  I can now ask, would I have given up my mother for an elism instead of asylum. Or one glass of water that did not contain war. My mind, yet what I needed most was a roof to collapse on her like earth around storms. Rain, the hard absence of skin. The silence of it. No gust and my goddess. No artificial wind. I'm going to read some poems that are later in the book. This poem has an epigraph from a BBC news article in 2007. Nostos. Today, they have uncovered a mass grave in an underground prison on the outskirts of the capital couple, which dates from the Soviet era. BBC news. 2007. Today, I've been moved by how the skeletons were found. Skulls with cloth around the eyes, wrist bones tied by rope.  I suspect lie my great-grandfathers and my mother's youngest brother's remains.  I felt nothing when I sleep the odd cheese, my student and ex marine wrote. In fact, those barbarians felt easy, like buildings and Mazada Sharif. What could I have said. I praise the urgency of subject, her apt simile. To fight, you understand, was aimless. I've been primed for this, for disappearance, all my life. I dreamt of my student that night, her voice muscling the soft framework of memory whistling. Leiche, leiche, leiche. Dearest, I wonder why in English, the body is both dead and alive. But I know the blight of grief has a heart and thus will love and learn and thusly learn to hate. I want to believe that he too settled porous into the light. He was 21 when they took him in for questioning. My uncle, I mean. Do not return, my mother shouts from her sleep. Do not return. His eyes were green. I have another poem that's inspired by a cold, wintry state in the United States. This one's set in Farmington, Maine, where I did a reading at the University of Farmington, organized by the great poet Aaron Lorsom. It's a cross-service of Farmington, Maine. He makes me sit next to him, so I inquire as if remembering his own smallness would prevent him from violating another's about his childhood. Cape Cod, he recalls. Longly he felled among the blue expanse each winter, longed to travel, so he joined the Marines. And I did travel, he fools, all the way to Afghanistan. When I tell him that's where I'm from, his laugh crumbles, and I'm sorry for a trembling in me or in him, I can't tell. Too chagrin to look at his face, I observe crumb holes, blurs of frozen buds.  But I loathe my almond blood, especially here in the snowy balsam furs in cookie cutter houses.  Gave me bread, warmth. They didn't have to. Bad things happened. Awful things. Nothing is calmer today. Cobblestone mourns contaminated water, and another suicide bomber. I shouldn't tell you this, but he coughs. I miss it sometimes. The provinces were so hot, it was like another planet. I will never feel at ease here, between subalpine hills, gas stations advertising Nescafe and Dove. But after eight years on the base, his voice clear as a fist, you wake up hating the person in the mirror. Now my life is about forgetting, his memory to a privilege. I couldn't, after I arrived in the States, remember a single damn village. Is it a sin then to be envious that my driver had a home in my home, yellow dust on a long mountainous roads, where 22 civilians died in the fourth attack this month for longer than I ever did. He has, I feel, estranged me. You know, I hear his heavy American voice crack like a creek, thawing under a deer. It's good to be back. The unspeakable opens between us, its waters, cold, full of shame, until we drift apart again, never asking for each other's names. I'll read one more poem from Heart Damage, and then I'll read some new stuff. Reading Rilke at Lake Mendoza, Wisconsin. I have relinquished my shame now that I have mastered what wasn't lent to my name. Three languages, one of them dead. It is hard to miss the love all that isn't as absurd as my forked childhood. It's the first of the men's he's had as a stethoscope to have hours upon hours to marvel at words like driftwood, trope, miss the love. To miss my life and couple is to tongue pairs laced with needles. I had no life in couple. And then can I trust my mind's long corridor. It's longing for before. I have a faint depression polluting my heart sings the lake. But there is music and everything if you tune into it, devastates me. Even trauma sounds like town, the German word for dream. Even in the dirty atrium, Lou was waiting, tenderly for Rilke. He signed his letters, the apostrophe full of love. Oh, and love I was always and providential. But what I want is not of love. It's meatless mojo and linemen for me. I do not want to open, neither for food nor men. For loneliness, I keep a stone to kiss at night the entirety of me arches not toward the black square of absence, but toward you, the cormorant. Every bird is an acquaintance of death. So every bird reminds me of you. The true sparrow, the egret, the peregrine falcon, but especially the double crested cormorant. Its iridescence and scribing the April sky, revealing for a moment, the other world exiled inside ours. All that heaving and glimmering brought Over and over, I whispered to myself the name of this bizarre and arcane bird cormorant. Cormorant, my commandant. The confidant was the music of your hands when you touched me, traced a stone around my neck. Now there are cafe tables with bottled flowers, bluebells, I think, and baskets of bread and wine by the lake. There, perched on driftwood, it concerns the water again. The black seabird with its neon arrow of a bill, awkward as my grief and as omniscient. Once we laughed right here under a tree and everything thawed. We were drunk, fear was still distant as a father. I hadn't learned yet the secret knowledge of grief that one can yearn for the dead even more than the living. The curve of their shoulders, sweat on a cupid's bow, that perfect dent I know, or the miracle of an eyelash picked from below. Oh friend, I long even for the littered courtyard of an evening years ago. All that grass, warm and unconcerned with birds, your souls will never touch again. The next poem is my America poem, which I wrote in February. So the second month of this year and it feels strangely kaiastic to read it now in the penultimate month of the year and see that nothing has changed. And I eerily predicted the exact situations that I would be in right now. America.  America, the old girl's campus and the heart of Oakland where I teach grows quiet as glass marbles rolling between my feet. I pick one up, I say, it's pretty. And my students laugh, cheering, welcome to America.  And God does not come when summoned. Just the scent of bonfire in my hair and light flooding the bay window sure as a divination. America, I divine nothing. In the other country, my parents where their silence like silk ropes each morning, doting the terrible son. Day after day, I weep on the phone saying, even the classroom as a prison. And still my father insists, but it is good to become an American. I cement my semantics. I practice my pronunciations. I learned to say this country after saying I love. I rinse my aquiline face ring my language for fear. I feared what had happened near forests, the words that pursued the soft silk of spiders. The words were naturalized charge reside the nouns were made as alien hibiscus. America, I arrived to inhabit the realm of your language. I came to worry your words. What you offered as a vintage compartment and audience for poems. Pills the color of dusk to swallow so as not to collapse when I read the poem about my uncle. The reading of which I owe him to everyone who anteced me. No, I mean, who haunts me the haunting of which is a voice. The West is too young to be haunted and ex lover of the shores. Still every night I listened to your voice scraping my walls. And in the mornings I pick the spiders from my bed flush their curl transparent down the drain. America, I don't know what to make of my ordinary cruelty, or my newly bourgeois pain. When I'm lacing each crack of the historic apartment, when I'm lacing the porcelain plates we hand out the parties. In the hallway I let someone touch me under my mask, three fingers in my mouth. My back pushed against the door, the cold sink. The mind plays where it leads a dark hour, the weight of a body on indigo tiles. America, the scale says, not thin enough. America, my lawyer suggests to keep quiet about certain things about you and me. So I write in my notebook your name, I write the country of cowboys and fame. America, I have no cowboy, and I have no fame. The other is the scratching of ink against paper, the laugh of a skeptic. There are nights we hear something likened to fireworks, lighting up the campus, and my students cheer. They laugh, welcome to America. Later in the empty corridor, the disembodied voice of my uncle saying the classroom is not a prison. Go, go on now. And so I go past bedivere and cedar, past eucalyptus declaring the shoreline. Until I shiver on the blue stone coast on which my father once lay, and I proclaim what he did. I say this land is my fate. America, who am I becoming here with you? If I wander the same as without you, barely visible amid your indigenous trees. Thank you everyone for coming. And thank you for inviting me. Thank you, Aria. And I think I can speak for all of us. When I say that was a deeply, deeply moving reading forensics and a weaving. My name is Noah, I'm the coordinator with Jeffrey of Lunch Poems. And I'd like to thank the library on who support this all depends. And finally, I'd like to thank you all for joining us here this afternoon. We hope you'll join us next time for Use of Common Yacca on December 3rd. And you can see on the screen before you. We're excited to welcome the next calendar year, Kiki Petrocino, Mary Jo Bang and Shane McCray. So thank you ever for joining and other lunch poems and be well.


Hi everyone, Joe for jazbeastcasebreaks.com. Happy new release night. Our last break of the night is going to be 2022 Panini Contenders Football, 6 box, half case Picker Team 3. Picker Team 3, half case from a fresh case, no vet base, ships. Big thanks to this group for making it happen. Appreciate it.  With the Texans before we pull the remaining teams for that contenders break. Congrats to the winners in that break. There's everybody else. And there's a fresh case of contenders football. We got 3 and 3 on the left side, 3 and 3 on the right side. Let's roll the dime. We'll go 1, 2, 3 for the left side and 4, 5, 6 for the right 6. And it's 1. We'll go left side and this side we'll go, this will be for break 4. We'll put 4 right there so you all know it's from the same case. I'm sure we'll knock that out tomorrow. And if you're listening right now, if you're watching live right now, I would grab teams in that next one before it inevitably goes into a filler. There's 10 teams left in Picker Team 4. And they are the Bengals, Broncos, Texans, Colts, Jaguars, Chiefs, Rams, Giants, Buccaneers, and Titans. We'll just grab them now before someone else does and before it goes into a filler. I know this is a football break, but we're on the eve of opening day for the baseball season. I'm excited. Who else is excited? We've got MLB tonight on in the background. Who will win the 2023 Sayang award? Anyone got any thoughts on that? There's Julio Urias. Yeah, he's got a good shot. What about National League MVP? Trey Turner maybe? Trey Turner, Austin Riley, Goldschmidt, Soto, and Nolan Aronato. I mean if Trey Turner has like a 30-30 season, maybe a batting title or something like that, which he could. Soto was kind of up and down when he went to the podries, but now that he's got a whole off season and a whole spring training with his team right there. I'll get some Cubs fans here. Redmond, Chris, well hopefully there'll be some big hits to keep you awake here. I'm going to start off with Alex Wright. Cleveland, this is for you. Jerry with the Browns. Hey, you're welcome, Charles. You might be lagging behind a little bit by a few minutes, but you are welcome. There's Samuel Womack. Womack, what does that remind me of? Womack reminds me of the FBI character in The Rock. And Sean Connery was like, Womack! I knew it was you. And this is Cam Taylor Britt. CTB is what they call him. CTB. That's for Cincinnati. We're on Cincinnati. Chris stands with that. That's what the kids say. Let's see some fun. That's what the kids say. There's a plate there. How about that? That's not fire. It's rather cool to the touch. It is Jalen Tolbert. Silver Ticket. 7 out of 49 on plate autograph for Sean Matic and the boys. There you go. Picking his team. And we got Tyrian Davis Price. That's your on-card auto. Got an on-plate auto, on-card auto. Sean Matic has the Niners. 92 out of 99. I should have been in the last box for Joe Pizzle. Ryan and Chris, what are your expectations? This is good for everybody. Tell me who your team is. Let me know what your expectations are for your team this season. And we've got a six autograph. Marcus Jones. For the Patriots, that's going to be for Brandon and the Pats. And we'll do left-right randomizers for these. We'll set that over there. And I'll do a recap at the end as well. Stentz is saying, I'm a Cubs fan.  World Series. What are the odds of the Cubs winning the World Series? World Series odds. 2023. Let's Google that really quick. I think ESPN has an article there. Hey, good night, guys. Drive safe. It's a little rainy out there. Redmond a little more realistic. He's like, I just want the Cubs not to be in the basement. I like the guys you signed, but we'll need some time to get used to each other. Looks like the Cubs win total is 78 wins. And the Cubs are plus 100 to win the division. 6 to 1. That's good for 3rd best. And to win the NL plus 3500, that's 35 to 1. By comparison, the Cardinals are plus 950, a little under 10 to 1 to win the division. Also a Bears fan, 17 and 0. Stentz says Poppycock. World Series. Well, hey, I don't know if you're into this sort of thing, but 35 to 1, that's not bad. You put 100 bucks on that. 3500 dollars coming back your way. That's just to get to the World Series. That's just to win the NL. World Series odds might even, that might even be better. I have a lot of friends from Chicago and there are Cubs and Bears fans. Long suffering. Channing Tindle. Is that the first time I said Poppycock on YouTube? No. I've been doing this for about eight and a half years now. Aside from some of the more serious curse words, pretty much, I think every word in the Oxford English has been said on this channel. There's Chance Campbell. Chance going to Graham in the Titans. And we've got Kobe Bryant. No, not that Kobe Bryant, but Seattle. Seattle Seahawk football player Kobe Bryant. Justin with that one. It's also Kobe with the C. And a Y. We've got a Saint. We've got Trevor Penning. Rookie Otto for Tim. Tim and Trevor. And we've got John Mechie the third. Wow, that's pretty cool. Showcase ticket? Is that a number? No, but there's like a, you see that I guess they would call it a step and repeat, but you see that? The RC badges on there? That's really cool. John Mechie. That's going to be for Ryan Redmond. Last bottom mojo. 70% of the time. 100% of the time. And we got winning ticket. One out of ten. That's Patty Mahomes. Patty Cakes. That'll be for Simon and the Chiefs. Next box. What is, I don't know who these odds are provided by. Probably BedMGM or whoever. DraftKings or the partner is for ESPN, but but according to this I think as a Dodgers guy, I think last year they were never challenged. They never faced adversity. I think they were a little on autopilot.  I think they just thought they can just turn it on in the playoffs and well once they got settled into a little adversity and they struggled in the playoffs and they were bounced by the Padres. So I think there's a little bit of that. I think some more adversity this season more challenge season will be good for the Dodgers. And after last year's playoff experience, that'll be good. Some young blood coming up the ranks. Miguel Vargas. James Altman who I've got on my fantasy team I'm excited about. And according to this ESPN article, they have the Dodgers win total at 94.5. Padres win total at 94. Then it drops to the Giants at 81 wins. To win the division minus 125. Padres to win the division plus 110. So pretty close. Pretty tight. And I think I think that's good for baseball. And that's just good for fans to see kind of a tight race throughout the season. I think it's going to go back and forth. Dodgers aren't going to win 111 games. They're not going to win the division by 20 some odd games like they did last year. It'll be a lot closer. Probably comes down to the last week of the season which I think would be great. We got Jordan Mason. Jordan old Jordan Mason Jar. That's what they call him. Sean Maddock with the Niners. Speaking of baseball. Simon's going to go to your first opening day game next week. Nice. Who are who's your team? Oh, your team's the twins. Who are they? Who are they going to play? Nice. Another one of those RC Badge Steppen repeats here. That's Logan Hall. Buccaneers. That's going to be for Simon. One that team in the filler. Gets the Logan Hall. Jerome Ford Cleveland. This is for you. Jerry with Jerome. Steppen repeat by the way. It's you know when you see like celebrities on the red carpet and they're taking photos of people and you see all you see like the background that has that print all over like a sponsor or something like that. Call that a call that a Steppen repeat. Stepping and repeating. And we've got Hassan Haskins. Rookie roundup on card autograph 48 out of 99 and the Titans won that team in the filler. Oh, there's another plate here. A plate for the Texans. And it's a one of one plate. Ryan Redman with the Houston Texans. One of one on plate autograph. Damien Pierce who started off last season pretty strong. Ryan all aboard the Big Hit Express. Nice. And another autograph. No, not an autograph. A cracked ice demon Harris though. 17 out of 21. That's going to be for Brandon and the Patriots. All right, we are halfway through this break. Let's take a look at the what are the twins numbers here. Going back real quick to Simon and his twins. They open with the Astros. They're expected to win their division. The win total is at 83 and a half. White Sox are behind them 82 and a half. Plus 220 to win the division. Although White Sox are actually plus 210 to win the division. Guardians are plus 125 to win the division. Oh, these wind tolls are not in order. It's 87 and a half. For the Guardians. Then it's the twins. Award odds. ALMVP. I know it's a football break, but with the opening day and the baseball season tomorrow, we can talk a little bit about this. There's really won't be much to talk about football wise until we finally get to draft time. We'll talk plenty of football then. Shoahio Tani. Plus 200. That's two to one to win the ALMVP. Aaron Judge plus 400. That's four to one. Mike Trout, six to one. Julio Rodriguez is eight to one. Jordon, 12 to one. Guerrero Jr. 14 to one. Jose Ramirez, 16 to one. Corey Seger, 1 to Franco, 22 to one. Byron Bucks, Natalie Rushman, 25 to one. Anything jump out there for you? Who likes those odds for what players? Now it's easy to bet a favorite. Here's Nicoby Dean. Rookie Ticket Otto for the Eagles. That's for Sal. But who on that list do you like to win the ALMVP? We've got George Carl-Oftis. Rookie Ticket autograph for the Chiefs. That's going to go to Simon. Sal Sing and Devers aren't even on the list. He might be, he might be, his odds might be longer than 25 to one. Ten bucks on Buckson isn't too, I don't think, I mean health is the only thing holding Buckson back, right? Here's David Bell. Five out of 49. And Cleveland this is for you, Jerry with that one. I feel like Buckson has MVP talent, but health usually has been holding him back. There's a three out of ten Rookie of the Year contenders, Isaiah Pacheco, Chiefs Simon. You got Jalen Virgil, Rookie Ticket autograph for the Broncos. You know what to keep forgetting to do? Maybe I'll, maybe I'll print this list out. It's like what was Aaron Judge's MVP odds at the start of last season. Now he's starting the season at four to one. I'm all, I'm pretty certain that his odds were not four to one. Were not plus 400 at the beginning you know, a year ago at this time. Although there was a, there was a lockout, right? So maybe, but no, around that. Yeah, a year ago at this time. There's Trenton Gill. Old Gill. A punter autograph for Chris and the Bears. Ah, Bears. I mean, he better be a Hall of Fame or hold on to this one, Chris. He ends up being a Hall of Fame punter. Just stick that in a drawer, wait for like 15, 20 years. Cause if he's around 15 years plus, that's probably a Hall of Fame punting career. There's Chad Mooma for the Jaguar. Simon. Alright. Almost there. Two boxes to go. Good luck everybody. Is he, is Hesser in the Hall of Fame? NL MVP I guess going back to AL MVP, it's probably no fun to just bet on guys under 10 to one, right? I'll go with I don't know. It'd be good for the hobby if Vlad Juner maybe wins a, an MVP right? He's 14 to one. I wouldn't mind saying that. Juan or Franco, 22 to one, that would be great too. In the NL, odds win the 2023 NL MVP according to ESPN.com and whoever their odds provider is, maybe BetMGM or DraftKings. Juan Soto plus 450, four and a half to one, Mookie Bet's eight to one, Ronald Lacuna Jr. nine to one, Manny Machado plus 950, then Peter Lanzo, Nolan Aronato, Freddie Freeman 10 to one, Goldschmidt Trey Turner 12 to one, Katis Jr. 14 to one, Austin Riley 14 to one. Hesser has broken records for returns, right? As a special man, you would think that that would be his angle into the Hall of Fame as a, as a special teams guy. That has to be honored somehow. Alright another five, possibly six autographs. Some boxes we've been seeing six. We've got Gladiators, 16 out of 25. Hey Timmy do you like movies about Gladiators? Roger Roger what's the vector Victor? We've got Ben Quatoriano. It goes to Ryan and the Texans. Last spot mojo. We've got a Mario Goodrich. Sal with the Iggles. We've got a Kieran Williams. Wookie Ticket Auto for the Ramley. Who's house? Rams house. Simon. Remember how much Al Michaels loved that? The Who's house Rams house guy? I think he hated that guy. It's like who is this guy? Every other down. Who's house? We got like Kingsley and Agbare. Kingsley and Agbare. Kingsley Shacklebolt. Who's a prominent member of the Ministry of Magic? The Ministry of Magic. That goes Green Bay. That's for Joe. Different Joe P. Joe Pereira. We got a Malcolm Rodriguez autograph. Little Cat Team mojo for Russell and Detroit. We've got a nice Saints auto coming up here. Standby Saints. I think it's who we thought he was. Yes. Rookie Ticket on card autograph Chris Olave. Could be a big season for him with Derek Carr throwing him the ball. Tim Carr maybe a relation to Derek with the Saints. There you go. This gets the Chris Olave. Rex is asked, Joe, I know you're not much of a sequel guy, but what is your favorite movie franchise? Right. I'm not a sequel guy. The only sequels that work is the Godfather, but they ruined it with Godfather 3. The original Star Wars trilogy is definitely up there. I mean sequel franchise, do you consider like James Bond like a sequel franchise? Those are pretty good. Indiana Jones minus the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. That's pretty good. Back to the future, obviously. But I would probably be probably be Godfather, Star Wars Indiana Jones. Back to the future. Wait, a franchise? I don't know what your definition of franchise is. Like the Marvel franchise? The Star Wars franchise? I guess Godfather wouldn't be a, I wouldn't consider that a franchise. Kill Bill is pretty good. Tarantino allegedly, whatever his next movie is, Tarantino says that's going to be his last one. I feel like directors say that. I feel like Cronenberger said he's going to make a last film for about a dozen films. Alright, last box. Last handful of autographs. Good luck. Alright, there's Peyton Hendershot. That's for Dallas. Hendershot, that's a good country club name right there. For the Cowboys, once again for Sean Maddock. We got another Cowboy for Sean, Damon Clark, Rookie Ticket Autograph. Sal likes the Oceans franchise. Did you consider Bill and Ted a franchise? I think Rex is maybe talking about sequels, maybe not franchises. We got Lewis Sin, Rookie Ticket Autograph for Sin. Ryan, Redmond with the Minnesota Vikings. I don't think any of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies are good. They were all kind of bad, weren't they? Khalil Shakir. Buffalo! Jeff with the bills. And look at this. What do we have here? We got James Cook. Two out of ten Acetate. Buffalo! Consider a franchise being movies of the same name. James Bond could and couldn't be considered a franchise. I think nice James Cook, by the way, Jeff with the bills. I think a franchise would be like James Bond. Or the Star Wars movies. Or the Marvel movies. That's what I consider. I think that's what's widely accepted as a franchise, I would think. Or like Oceans 11. I think anything with more than three movies, Mission Impossible would be a franchise. Star Wars would be a franchise. Avengers movies would be a franchise. James Bond would be a franchise. I feel like you'd have to have more than three. Three is just a trilogy. Four is a franchise, right? Alright, let's flip back to Ram.org. We got to do that left-right randomizer. How many hangovers are there? Is that a franchise? Let's roll it and randomize it. One and a six. Seven times. Side on top. After seven. We'll get it. One two three four five six and seven in final time. Right side cards. We'll get those. After seven. Right here. And here is your recap. Cool acetate card. James Cook. Some other nice stuff here as well. Second half in the store. Chris Olave. Jaspy's casebreaks.com. Thanks for watching. Thanks for breaking with us. That was out of ten. I like the landscape mode. That's Damian Pierce printing plate autograph. That was cool. And I like that pattern right there as well. That my homes is out of ten. A lot of cool stuff ladies and gentlemen. That's to 49. Let me start off with Alex Wright.  Thanks for the late night rally. I'm Joe for Jaspy's casebreak.com and I'll see you next time for the next football all break. Bye bye.
