Do they even do the old prostate exam anymore? What with all these sexual assault allegations. I had it done while in high school. The doctor told me to turn on my side then he stuck his lubed finger in my rear. I had no idea what was coming! I told me father when he got home and he just laughed.

I really don't like it except for a gold chain on a conceited guido.

It's pretty hard not to affirm or deny your own computer and phone records. And I wouldn't use the "I don't recall" line either. Plenty of people are prosecuted for lying to federal agents. Best to say nothing.

What in God's name did J Lo see in Piddy? Oh yeah fame and money. At 54 she still can’t act or sing.

"I don't recall" doesn't work when the Feds have computer and phone records, which they did.

So said R Kelly for years.

I agree. Scores of escorts and their clients were interviewed and had to make written statements in the Rentboy prosecution.

Correct. Not arrested...yet.

I've never suffered from depression except when a close family member died. That hits you hard. But I know people are who do (or did) suffer from it. One co-worker who did was told by his doctor that social isolation makes the condition more severe. One solution is to join a group devoted to something for which you have a strong interest or passion like the other people in the group. Volunteering at an animal shelter if you like animals for example. It gives you a sense of purpose and you're with like-minded people.

I've had CD's with out of state banks and credit unions. Never had a problem. Most banks don't or won't send you monthly statements anymore so you should set up online access and check it regularly. I wouldn't set up a checking account or even a savings account with an out of state institution because, like you, I'd rather have the face to face support in case there's a problem like you need to stop payment on a check.

The World Financial Center and many of the apartment buildings there are built on landfill. Anything west of West Street is originally the Hudson River, filled in during colonial times and excavation for the Twin Towers. Totally agree about not building on landfill. NYC can have earthquakes and it doesn't have to be a major one to send those buildings toppling.

It didn't take that long.......... Dozens sue saying Ozempic, other weight loss and diabetes drugs cause harmful side effects (msn.com)

Unfortunately I was born before this started happening.

Those 2 asset classes will not be "on fire" for much longer. The Fed is going have to slam on the brakes hard. We are in an awful situation. Money creation to support these massive deficits is the 800 pound gorilla in the room.

So we've redefined "transitory" again?

Agreed!! The FDIC has already poured tens of billions of dollars into the regional bank failures a year ago, but things are still deteriorating. If they think they can turn things around then let them. The Federal Government already has tens of trillions of dollars in liabilities, and we can't afford any more bailouts.

@stevenkesslar did you see the latest CPI and PPI numbers?? It looks like we are heading into stagflation.

It's not in the right direction anymore. The CPI and today's PPI show inflation accelerating. Prices keep going up and up.

Remember when she was supporting being fat as being a good thing. What happened to "Body positivity" Oprah?

I've heard meth is also a weight loss drug. Omethic.

I remember them. My mother used them when I was in grammar school.

Not true. Look at the latest inflation report. Inflation is accelerating! Prices are rising for everything. MSN WWW.MSN.COM

AI will crash and burn because it can't be controlled, predicted, or reliably safeguarded and will ultimately be curtailed as a national security threat. Remember Skynet? The stock market is on very shaky ground. I don’t think this will end well. Buy consumer staples and energy stocks, which have reasonable p/e's and good dividends.

I am very concerned. Nvidia is basically a Chinese company with an address in the U.S. That $2T valuation is based on a dream. Their sales last year were 1/80 that valuation. They make everything in China and Tawain. God only knows what secrets the Chinese are hiding it those chips.
