so does anyone beside Kilsaly follow 'pro' wrestling? (I know the deaths have been from the 70s/80s era )

I followed it enough back in the day to know who Mean Gene Okerlund was. I don't follow it at all now. I think the story lines just got too ridiculous. I blame Bob Mould.

I was also a fan of General Hospital while in my teens and 20's.

Now I get enough drama in my own house, I don't need wrestling or the soaps.

I only knew him as Super Dave Osborne. Now I'll know his as Albert Brooks' older brother.

How long til companies begin layoffs?

I loathe Trump but not to the point I cheer when the market tanks and a recession seems to be around the corner

Perspective
DJ on Jan 3 2019 : 22,850~
DJ on Jan 3 2018 : 24,900~
DJ on Jan 6 2017 : 19,900~
DJ on Jan 3 2014 : 16,400~

LOTS of gains in the last 5 years…
could be foreshadowing of a bear market…but overall, you really couldn't lose with your money in the market for the last few years
Not sure I'd recommend getting in big now, but I think some of this is overblown and good headlines
and yes DJ is only a small part of the market…but a good indicator on our economy

It's pretty cool timing-wise. I sold my house, cashed out on 11/1, been back in the stock market since 11/1. My money is really making money.

Alan R. Pearlman of ARP synths. So many classic synth sounds derived from his hardware.
