I myself see a big pullback coming in the next six months but I don’t know that I have ever been correct over 45 years. I will put a lot of money in if a 10% pullback comes. I expect you r being prudent depending on how old you are. The thing is, if you’re young, you might as well stick it out and not try to time. He said.

diphenhydramine is a nasty med even though pediatricians have long been seduced by it (conks kids out among other things)

You certainly need to do antihistamines before anything else, ingested and topical, along with ice

I cannot believe somehow so ostentatiously data-driven reposts the big Fox / GOP lie about all of this.

Wait, what about the end of democracy?
What are your thoughts about Portland and Comey? Medbed video posting? UN speech? All good?
Caitlin Collins's guests were in stitches, almost, over the indictment, the novice lead attorney, the bogus charge, and especially the comically weak grand jury vote ratios.

@DrV, you are welcome.
I like to assume that many or most here read Cox and Krugman every day. Free. Best of wrapups. I read a ton other and more, but could not live without those two. What a great time for smart hard thinking. Alas.

FD1k knows no nuance. Wishing for Trump to die sooner than later is not calling for his death, much less advocating murder.
Kirk came v close to that, and in any case was (made a life out of being) an ugly, vile-mouthed punk who feigned to be big …
I am almost dumbfounded at the reactions to Kirk's murder, who made his lucrative career loudly and repeatedly saying vile ugly things about women, nonwhites, progtards, and much more, all under the guise of debate.
