EA is going to buy Glu in a merger announced yesterday. Owners are going to get $12.50 per share in I believe May. Yet the stock has actually been trading above this price throughout the day, which defies common sense and basic financial principles.

I read somewhere yesterday that there's a possibility that a competing offer could come in yet. But that was one article and no other source mentions this.

If the deal is done then I would just as soon sell and move on but I'm wondering what's going on there.

I have a 2009 Silverado with an Astro Start remote starter. I know what the fob looks like but that's about it. I can find similar remotes on eBay but I'm out of my depth on this one. The local vendor wants almost $200 just for one fob. I'd like to try to find one and try it myself. Anyone with experience with these?

I have maybe 20 lbs of Cherokee Purple tomatoes and around 5-10 of Big Beef. I was hoping to make some tomato paste but the recipes call for plum or roma tomatoes. Would I be fine to just boil it longer and reduce it further?

So I noticed this last night when I was put on yellow team maybe 10 times in a row. I just thought wow that's unlucky but whatever. But now today it's the same thing. I have been on yellow team 14 consecutive times today. Being generous and saying 5 times last night that's 19 times in a row = 3^19 = a 1 in 1,162,261,467 chance of that occuring.

So literally a 1 in a billion chance. And some games have 4 teams so it would be even longer odds.

I'm not mad or anything just wondering if it was happening to anyone else? Shenanigans?

I tried Ball's basic salsa recipe but I can't say I love it. It will be awesome in chili though I think. Any suggestions? I love salsa but not so much that recipe.

Regular enemies or bosses/coliseum/combat sim enemies? I can only find one source that says they do.

Is there anything else we can think of that might be hopeful at this point?

Made $8 with bonus in just under 45 minutes. Interesting HIT too. Some writing

My theory: Arnold killed himself but transplanted his mind into a host and lives in the park now. He is the one at the end of the maze in a metaphorical sense, he is fully sentient.

Arnold's vision was to create technology sufficient to make humans immortal via the host bodies. I believe that's also what the board wants. This is alluded to in ep 07 when Ford and Theresa speak at the end. TL;DR Ford is the good guy in the whole series. He's trying to keep the technology in the park and keep humans human? Something Ford repeats a lot: He just wants to tell his stories.

Furthermore, Wyatt is Arnold under another name. Wyatt is the name Ford chose for him so that it fits his narrative and hide

First off I would like to say I love this show and I disagree with anyone that says it's sloppy storytelling. It's intentionally ambiguous and "wrong" at times. Unreliable narrator = English 101. Furthermore it's an analogy of real life, things aren't always black and white, right or wrong, e.g., how should we treat the sentient hosts?

With that I'd like to put forth a couple ideas that you guys can agree or disagree with. I just watched episode 04 - Dissonance Theory - for the second time and caught a few things. Here are my ideas:

1. Arnold isn't dead and he and Ford are fighting for control of Westworld. Ford's "new narrative" is actually an attempt to root out Arn
