Good morning, Member

Happy hump day, dear GrayViners! Did you sleep well last night? I was already nodding off by 8:30 p.m., so I skipped my usual bedtime routine (a little journaling and reading) and went straight to dreamland. Do you have a routine before you hit the hay—maybe a favorite show, a book, or a warm cup of tea? Tell me all about it here!

Shall we crack yesterday’s riddle? It was: I bounce and fly from hand to hand, through hoops I soar at your command. Crowds will cheer when I am near. What am I that players revere?

The answer is… basketball! Kudos to our Riddle Masters who got it correct!

For your next challenge, unscramble this word: B O R Z E N

Does your car insurance cover what really matters?

Not all car insurance is created equal. Minimum liability coverage may keep you legal on the road, but it often won’t be enough to cover the full cost of an accident. Without proper limits, you could be left paying thousands out of pocket. The right policy ensures you and your finances are protected. Check out Money’s car insurance tool to get the coverage you actually need.
