Why you should buy the 85-inch Samsung TU690T 4K TV

The Samsung TU690T 4K TV offers 4K Ultra HD resolution on its 85-inch screen, so you or your friends won’t miss any important details in the plays of Super Bowl LVIII.  You’ll also be able to better enjoy the commercials and the halftime show, if you’re looking forward to those more than the actual game. In any case, the 85-inch display of the Samsung TU690T 4K TV means everyone in the living room will be able to watch from anywhere, so there’s no need to squeeze into a single couch.

If you’re planning to watch Super Bowl LVIII through a livestream or a streaming service, you can do so on the 85-inch Samsung TU690T 4K TV as it’s a smart TV that’s powered by Samsung’s Tizen. After the match is over, you won’t run out of shows and movies to watch across the services, and you’ll be able to easily search for content that you’d like using voice commands with either Amazon’s Alexa or Google Assistant.

Samsung TV deals always attract a lot of attention, and we expect the same thing to happen to Best Buy’s $500 discount for the 85-inch Samsung TU690T 4K TV. It’s down to $800, which more families will be able to afford compared to its original price of $1,300, but you should act fast because we’re not sure how much time is remaining before this offer expires. You’ll also want to get the 85-inch Samsung TU690T 4K TV set up before Super Bowl LVIII, so it’s highly recommended that you complete the transaction as soon as possible.

Do you know the myth of Napoleon (the pig…not the man)
Napoleon

One of the many times I watched The Gentlemen, I laughed at the scene where Matthew (Jeremy Strong) joked that it was illegal in France to name a pig Napoleon. Of course, there are ridiculous laws all over the place. Want a few? In Georgia, it is illegal to eat fried chicken with a fork. In Arkansas, it is against the law to say the name incorrectly. Which means Bill Clinton would have come after me for years of me saying “ARE-Kansas.” It is prohibited to sleep on top of a refrigerator in Pennsylvania. That means my cat is a thug in Penn. And one of my favorites: It is illegal for unmarried women to parachute on Sundays.

The point is that there are crazy laws all over the place that seem completely ridiculous, and there is almost always a story behind them. So, is the Napoleon pig law a real thing? Is it illegal to raise a swine and name it after the legendary French Emperor? Well, let’s dig in. Why? Because I am a nerd and I need company in the weeds.

Who does James Bond work for? And is MI6 real?
James Bond Specter double breasted

We have some news on the movement of the next James Bond. According to reports, we are looking at the final four (we know of three). Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk), Callum Turner (Eternity, One Night Only), and Josh O’Connor (The Crown, Challengers) are all in the final running to portray the next 007. We also, allegedly, have a fourth, unannounced actor in the running. But of course we do. And since we have news and movement on the James Bond front, I started thinking about what the next movie will be about. That took me down a rabbit hole, and I landed on a question. What is MI6? James Bond’s employer is a shadowy government agency, like Jason Bourne’s Treadstone or Ethan Hunt’s Impossible Mission Force (IMF). But there is one major difference between them and the organization that signs 007’s paychecks.

His is real.

A toast to excellence: Don’t overthink lighting a cigar…but don’t underthink it either 
Face, Head, Person

When I first decided I was ready to try cigars for the first time, I was ready to jump right in and sit back to enjoy the experience. Then, something crazy happened. I couldn’t light it. It seemed so simple. Flame, meet cigar. It really couldn’t be that complicated. But I ran into a slew of problems. The wrong kind of flame, canoeing, an uneven burn, and the damn thing kept going out, causing me to restart the embarrassing process. So I reached out to my friends over at La Aurora to find out what I was doing wrong.

That is when I found out from their own John Gaglio that these issues are very common and there is no reason to be embarrassed. Instead, don’t overthink lighting your cigar. And don’t underthink it. Instead, try to use the following tips and enjoy the experience without shame.
