| | Dear Reader, Hi, Whitney Tilson here. I'm writing today because my team and I have found what we believe will be the next big tech trend that will make investors rich. For years, I've been on the cutting edge of huge tech trends… everything from futuristic sky taxis to state-of-the-art virtual reality rigs. | | You also might recall that I was one of the first to bring the world's attention to something called "TaaS," or Transportation as a Service. I revealed my complete analysis in an urgent video, and shared the details on five "buy now" stocks that could make investors some serious cash. Less than two years later, the five stocks I recommended are up an average of 120%. But today, there's an even bigger opportunity. It's what I call "Connexa Terra." And if you haven't heard of it yet, you will soon... It's a new technology that stands to change everything – the way we work, travel, shop, buy real estate, attend live events, obtain legal advice, and even bank. And it could make some people insanely rich along the way. Look, this is going to be the biggest tech trend affecting you and your money over the next several years – yet most Americans don't have a clue. So I'm going public today with the full story. And it could be my biggest prediction yet. I've put everything you need to know in a simple presentation, where you'll even learn the name and stock symbol of my favorite "Connexa Terra" investment in the world today. No subscription, email address, or credit card required. You can watch my presentation for free right now. It's posted on my research firm's website, right here... Regards, Whitney Tilson CEO and Founder, Empire Financial Research P.S. Right now, nearly all of the top 50 tech firms on the planet are fighting tooth and nail to control this new technology. As Tim Sweeney, founder of Potomac Computer Systems says: "If one central company gains control of this, they will become more powerful than any government and be a god on Earth." Thing is, I believe I know which company it's going to be. In fact, it's my #1 tech stock for 2022, and I reveal it for free in my new presentation. No subscription, email, or credit card required. If you missed the huge gains from my last prediction, don't miss out this time. Click here for my complete analysis. | | |
The episode begins at the end of Monica and Chandler's wedding. Ross congratulates Monica on her pregnancy, only to be told that she is not pregnant. Phoebe asks Monica why she told him that, saying they found the pregnancy test. Spotting Rachel desperately shaking her head at her, Phoebe quickly decides to pretend it is hers and claims the father is James Brolin. At the wedding reception, Chandler surprises Monica by telling her that, in preparation for their first dance, he has been taking dancing lessons. However, when he tries, he finds his slippery new shoes make him utterly incapable of dancing. He asks Joey whether he can borrow his shoes, only to look down and realise that Joey is not a shoe size 11, as he claimed, but in fact a size 7. Monica finally manages to get Chandler onto the dance floor, saying it does not matter that he cannot dance traditionally, as long as she can dance on her wedding night with her husband. She tells him to keep his feet still, so he does not slip, and dance like that. Chandler starts tentatively, but rapidly gets into the "Chandler dance". He stops, though, when Jack enthusiastically tells him he is "stealing his moves." Meanwhile, Phoebe quizzes Rachel on the identity of the father – guessing at Tag, Ross and Joey. Rachel refuses to tell her until the father knows about the pregnancy. Monica, still unaware of the truth, discusses with Rachel how difficult it will be for Phoebe to be a single mother and lists the numerous problems she will have to face. Rachel agrees unenthusiastically and unthinkingly drinks some champagne, and then quickly spits it out again. Seeing this, Monica realises that it is Rachel who is pregnant. She punctures Phoebe's facade, and asks Rachel to take another test to make sure she is pregnant, saying it will be her wedding present. Chandler's mother introduces her date, Dennis Phillips, a famous Broadway producer. Joey, who has changed from his army costume into a tennis outfit (the only thing they had in the hotel shop), is very excited about this. Joey asks Chandler to put a word in for him with Dennis, and later on in the reception, Joey gets up on stage to do a speech that is tailored, increasingly unsubtly, to show off his dramatic skills to Dennis. He then approaches Dennis about getting an audition for his newest play, but Dennis says it is an all Chinese cast. Whilst collecting table placings, Ross meets Mona, a colleague of Monica's. He flirts with her, complimenting her on her name, and when she leaves, he switches his table so he can sit with her, only to discover that he switched onto the wrong table – he has in fact seated himself at the children's table. Ross asks Mona to dance, but a little girl from his table asks him whether he can dance with her. Mona says she can have the first dance, and Ross, looking to impress Mona, dances with the girl standing on his shoes. He then dances with multiple young girls, but when Ross thinks he can dance with Mona, he is surprised when Gert, a significantly larger girl than the ones he has previously danced with, insists it is her turn to dance on his shoes. Rachel, Monica and Phoebe get together in the washroom to discover the result of Rachel's second pregnancy test. The wait seems endless for Rachel, whilst Monica tells her that they will be there for her whatever the result. Finally, Phoebe tells Rachel that the result is negative. To her surprise, Rachel reacts sadly. She wonders how she can be sad about losing something she never had. Phoebe then tells her that it was positive – she had lied in order for Rachel to find out how she really felt about having a baby. An overjoyed Rachel decides she is going to have the baby, and hugs Phoebe and Monica in celebration. At the end of the reception, Joey helps Ross – who has been injured by weight of Gert – off the dance floor. Mona compliments him on this, saying he is one of the few nice guys left in the world. Ross, spotting Joey gearing up to flirt, reacts angrily saying he is the nice guy, having to dance all night with children for the attention of Mona. Bent over in pain, Ross too realises how small Joey's feet are. |
| | The 1963–64 season was Gillingham's 32nd season playing in the Football League and the 14th since the club was elected back into the League in 1950 after being voted out in 1938.[1] It was the club's sixth consecutive season in the Football League Fourth Division,[1] which had been created in 1958 when the parallel Third Division South and Third Division North were merged and reorganised into two national divisions at the third and fourth tiers of the English football league system.[2] Freddie Cox was the team's manager, a position he had held since June 1962;[3] in his first season in charge, Gillingham had finished 5th in the Fourth Division, a huge improvement over their 20th-place finish in the 1961–62 season.[4] Prior to the new season, the club signed Geoff Hudson, a 31-year-old full-back with well over a decade of Football League experience, from Crewe Alexandra.[5] Cox also signed three young players from Portsmouth, all of whom he knew from his time managing that club until 1961: Rod Taylor, a half-back aged 19, 21-year-old full-back Jimmy White, and Brian Yeo, a forward also aged 19.[6] Jimmy Boswell assisted Cox in the role of team trainer.[7] The team wore Gillingham's traditional blue shirts and white shorts, the only change in design from the previous season being the style of collar and the placement of the club badge on the shirt.[8] Redevelopment work took place at the club's home ground, Priestfield Stadium, between seasons as floodlights were installed for the first time, at a cost of £14,000 (equivalent to £310,000 in 2021).[9] The club had been one of the few in the Football League yet to install lights, which had become prevalent in English professional football since the mid-1950s, and when they were switched on for a game for the first time (September 1963) it made Gillingham the 89th out of 92 Football League clubs to play a home match under lights.[10] Gillingham's first two matches of the season were both at home to teams from the city of Bradford. The first took place on 24 August against Bradford (Park Avenue); Gordon Pulley scored Gillingham's first goal of the season and Brian Gibbs added a second to give the team a 2–0 victory.[11] Four days later, the team drew 0–0 with Bradford City; Gillingham were the only team in the Football League to concede no goals in their first two games of the season.[12] The game against Bradford City was the first of three consecutive draws for Gillingham in Fourth Division games as they were also held by Southport and Exeter City.[11] Following a win away to Bradford City and a draw away to Hartlepools United, Gillingham beat Lincoln City 1–0 on 18 September to go top of the league table on goal average.[11][13] Hudson scored the winner, the only goal he scored in more than 300 Football League matches.[14][15] At this point Gillingham had conceded only one goal in seven Fourth Division games.[13][16] The team concluded September with a victory over Darlington and a draw against Tranmere Rovers.[11] Gillingham began October with four consecutive victories, defeating Lincoln, Halifax Town, Carlisle United, and Doncaster Rovers. George Francis scored five goals in three games at the start of the month.[11] After 13 consecutive Fourth Division games without defeat, Gillingham lost for the first time on 15 October when they were beaten 3–1 by Carlisle; they were the final team in the Football League's four divisions to lose a game during the 1963–64 season.[17][18] The team won their next two matches without conceding a goal, but then lost two consecutive games without scoring one.[11] Despite the two defeats, Gillingham remained top of the Fourth Division at the end of October, one point ahead of Carlisle.[19] Gibbs was the team's top league goalscorer at this point in the season, his four goals in the month taking his total to eight.[11] Gillingham won three out of four matches in November and remained top of the division.[11][20] Gibbs scored five goals in three games, including two in a 3–1 win at home to Workington, the first time the team had scored more than twice in a game at Priestfield during the season so far.[11] On 21 December the team topped this performance by winning 5–1 at home to Southport, their biggest win of the entire season. Ron Newman scored three times, the team's only hat-trick of the season.[11][21] Gillingham's final two matches of 1963 were both against Chesterfield. On 26 December Pulley scored twice as Gillingham won 3–0 at their opponents' Saltergate stadium, and two days later Gillingham won 1–0 at Priestfield with Gibbs scoring the only goal, his 14th Fourth Division goal of the season.[11] Gillingham finished the year top of the Fourth Division, one point ahead of second-placed Carlisle. They had conceded only 15 goals, the best defensive record in the division; only four other teams in the Fourth Division had conceded fewer than 30.[22] The Goldstone Ground, Brighton Gillingham's first defeat of 1964 came at the Goldstone Ground, home of Brighton & Hove Albion.
