"New research suggests that french fries may be linked to depression."

Nope, I don't agree with this at all. IMO, the single biggest factor in someone's physical/mental health is working out. You can eat the most healthiest of the healthiest, but if you don't hit the gym, your physical and mental health is at risk more so than any other variable/factor IMO.

"'I never gave a f--k about a calorie,' Jason Statham says."

Growing up in the 90's, Power Rangers debuted 30 years ago in '93 and was one of my favorite shows, and was a huge fan of the green ranger. In fact, I bought all the dino sets and swords as a kid, and still have them to this day. The dragonzord, green ranger life-size helmet, dragon dagger, and green ranger evil sword are all displayed in my home office. Wifey thinks it's time to grow up and pack them away, but for those that grew up in this time, I think they would understand the sentimental value.

Was browsing through Netflix earlier and saw there was a movie, "Power Ranger: Once and Always", so of course I had to watch it and have all the memories as a kid come back. The biggest take away I had from watching this: "HOLY SH!T, EVERYONE GOT OLD!" :eek::eek::eek::eek:

:hello:

"3M announces mass layoffs as manufacturing slows."

"UPS flashes a warning sign about the US economy."

The effects are almost immediate when they decide to mess with manufacturing. This is going to effect in-house AND global economy.

Really high rates -> less spending -> less supply -> less manufacturing = economic disaster :shakes head::shakes head:

Feds, in this particular economic situation, NOW is the time to reduce rates, NOT during a recession.

"Biden announces reelection bid, saying battle for nation’s soul isn’t complete."

"'Well, they’re concerned about whether or not I can get anything done. Look what I’ve gotten done,' Biden told Tapper. 'Name me a president in recent history that’s gotten done as much as I have in their first two years.'”
