Good morning, Member

Hey, hey, dear GrayViners! 🌞 How’s your week treating you so far? Mine’s been a little hectic, which is why I’m extra excited to log off today and head straight to a family reunion… with a heated pool waiting for me. (Yes, please!) I’ve loved swimming ever since I learned on my 7th birthday, and it got me wondering: Are you a swimmer? 🏊🏻 Or are you more of a “feet in the water” kind of person? Let’s chat in the forum!

Now, let’s crack yesterday’s riddle: What has 13 hearts but no other organs?

The answer is a deck of cards! Well done, Riddle Masters—here’s your shoutout!

They filled the living room screen with outrageous twists, dramatic pauses, and characters you couldn’t quite believe were allowed on television at the time. Big hair, bigger personalities, and a wink that let you know the show didn’t take itself too seriously. It was equal parts comedy, chaos, and cliffhanger—often all in the same scene.
