Nobody has said anything, so I decided to start a conversation. The Tesla stock is taking a pretty good hit at this point, and Barron's says it's because people were anticipating a split or big news. Thoughts?

Personally, I hadn't put much anticipation and was in wait and see mode. Kinda like all the speculation about the Quad motor.

It’s almost 4:20 in Austin perfect timing for a Musk announcement.

Did you not see Elon answer the question about 12/9 on WSJ? This reminds me a bit of "Paul is dead".

I suppose you are referring to this: Austin’s Tesla Owners Club Celebrate Elon Musk Day, 4/20 #ElonMuskDay – Jioforme
I did not know about that special day...
Will this CT club be celebrating it as well?
It’s sort of an in-joke. The number 420 is associated with smoking weed. I think originally it referred (or reefered) to the time people would smoke… after school at 4:20 in the US.

It’s taken off to mean whatever marijuana associated meaning people want to give it. They celebrate 4/20 as the date Weed was legalized in Colorado…

He’s joked about it a lot, but I don’t think Musk actually smokes much.

This morning we went for brunch and we caught a "server robot" sleeping on the job, perhaps waiting for its next job. Or perhaps it did had one of those special smoke during the break.

Lisa took this picture this morning (no joke!):

This is the funny thing… where the number actually came from is lost to time.
Because someone talked about 4:20, everyone toked up, and the original conversation was lost in the haze.
