The Scoop for March 2, 2020

Oprah Winfrey is currently on her 2020 Vision speaking tour. And this weekend she talking about living a life in balance, and this happened.
She tripped and fell.
At least she gets the irony of it all.
“It’s nice to be talking about balance, and fall”
Maybe Alanis Morrisette should update her song. At least this way it would have, you know, some actual irony in it.


Ryan Reynolds has some Leap Day fun this weekend. He found Arlene Manko, a Leap Day baby boarn on February 29th, 1936. That was 84 years ago. But if you only count her birth date, February 29th, she’s only 21, and finally of legal drinking age. So you know what that means. It’s time to drink.
I mean sure, this is a blatant plug for his Aviation Gin, but still, Ryan Reynolds is a genius.


Remember that guy last week that did the billion-dollar rice comparison video? One grain of rice was 100-thousand dollars and 10-Thousand grains of rice was One Billion Dollars. But what about one of the richest guys ever, Jeff Bezos from Amazon. How much rice would he be worth.
58 POUNDS OF RICE.
Think about that. Jeff has 58 pounds of rice, I have less than one grain. And now, I’m even more depressed than I was :30 seconds ago. Thanks Jeff Bezos.
You can check out his full video RIGHT HERE.
