  2. RE: flipboard.com/@futurism/future

    ....says the man who felt the best way to explain the value of his company to its investors was to liken it to a goose with a factory inside it that makes golden eggs that are actually AGI. Oh, and thinks he's like Jesus as he, too, is misunderstood.

  3. I know #Goose is sooo 2 weeks ago. BUT while running errands today, I ran into an actual Goose who's value was 70 ($69.97 CDN)

    Sooo maybe, in this case, the Goose has some value after all? No? Value is still 0? LOL. Maybe I should have looked for golden egg ornaments instead.
