Casually listening to 'Sublime - Bad Fish'

Casually listening to 'Sublime - Bad Fish'

Found this kinda eerie, "Badfish" by the group Sublime, is a deeply personal and melancholic song about the struggle of feeling trapped by addiction. Using ocean and surfing metaphors, singer Bradley Nowell describes the overwhelming, inescapable grip of a destructive habit".

Interestingly the group had another song called 'Date Rape' which was about the story of a man who forces a woman to leave a bar with him and sexually assaults her. She fights back, reports him to the police, and takes him to court. The judge convicts him, sentences him to 25 years in prison, where he is eventually assaulted himself.

Remember this lady? Dr Martha Ogman

Did a bit of digging to see if I could find any info on her, I'd assumed she'd passed away since it's been 20 YEARS since this episode (Gambling in Las Vegas) was filmed.

Seems according to records online she's still alive, at the grand age of 99 years years old.

She's had multiple addresses in New York / Las Vegas, but still seems to live in the same gated community that she did when this was filmed. A whole 3 minutes drive and a 10 minute walk from what was then the Hilton Casino (where most of the documentary is filmed), and is now called the Westgate Hotel & Casino.

A lot of her addresses seem to overlap, so maybe that explains why she seemed to have unlimited funds. Maybe renting high profile places when she retired/husband passed. I'm not sure how accurate the records are.

She'll be 100 years old next March.

Seth (son) who still hasn't got his inheritance, is 59 and still living in Vegas. Patiently waiting I'm sure.

Benjamin Ogman (husband) seems to have passed 2005, "Benjamin Ogman (born March 29, 1920) who died at age 85 on April 21, 2005, in Las Vegas, Nevada.". Can't recall how much of this she mentions in the doc.

Screen rotation

Since the latest update my screen rotation in desktop mode (which I use all the time) seems to be broken.

Any ideas?

Just to be clear, the screen looks fine (now) but the rotation is set to 800x1200 and -90degrees (icon)

Would you replace this?

Heard about mushrooming, and my cue is similar age and play time to a friend's, but his seems ok. I'll be honest, I'm more hoping to get it replaced for some sort of placebo on my downward spiral in form 😂

Doesn't seem dramatic but just wondering.

If it's matters, 3 year old cue, prob 10 hours a month play time.

Never even been billed more than £170 I don't think, let alone in spring/summer. I'd recently moved from paying £150 in winter to £100.

I also haven't been billed in nearly 3 months because of 'missing readings', which they requested, but still nothing.
