  1. That episode was chock full of boring matches. Hope next week brings more action.
  2. You could always enclose the house and yard in a Faraday cage.
  3. 12 Mighty Orphans. Decent movie. Didn't enjoy Newman though.

  5. Last week's episode had some entertaining fights. Here' the card for tonight: Starchild v Huge should be some comedy. Will Huge actually launch a bot into the air? Triton v Horizon ... I mean... lulz... Bloodsport v Beta might be interesting if Beta uses their amazing wedge. Bloodsport used a blade that gave them some reach in their last fight. Will they break Beta's hammer? Black Dragon v Riptide will get all the hype. Similar design for the bots so I expect this fight will be determined by driving skill.
  6. Posted from my phone last night, so I didn't include a snippet. Here's the conclusion from the report:

  8. Good read with a sober look at the big picture: https://research.eurizonslj.com/linkapp/cmaview.aspx?LinkID=pageid100543649nqn~xx9xjt9~tntr~qrzfn9~z~x~f~f~n
  9. We have the Netflix DVD service. There are a lot of older movies and TV shows that you can't get on their streaming service that you can get with the DVDs. I probably averaged around 40-50 titles in the queue at any given time over the last couple of years, but in the last few months, it's been very noticeable how they don't get new movies available (locked in to other streaming services I suppose). My queue is down to ~15 titles now and I've been thinking about cancelling it, so a September sunset date works fine for me.

  11. Y'all are nasty. Results: Your food disgust is elevated (70.5%).
  12. June is the announced deadline. July-August has been mentioned as a period where avoiding defaults might be possible with some fuckery involved. I would guess markets are going to start reacting to political gridlock late May - about a month from now.

Lagarde's speech: https://mishtalk.com/economics/as-amazing-as-it-sounds-ecb-president-christine-lagarde-is-making-some-sense Important observation: Yellen, Lagarde, et al are recognizing the global shift. It remains to be seen what Saudi Arabia does with the BRICS. It's the fulcrum that could accelerate events or stagnate them IMO.

  22. I misspoke. Two weeks out. May 3 is decision day.
  23. We are roughly a month out from the next Fed decision on rates. Recent news appears to be bolstering a case for a Fed pause on rate hikes. As long as that continues, the market is going to build on that expectation. Mixed news might bolster the case for another rate hike. Markets will likely be green on news favoring a pause and red on news favoring a hike.
