I miss @Wu Wei
Is he still in Yellowstone?

He took a "sabbatical" from RF saying he might or might not return.

I wish we could just all send him a PM saying "Hang in there. You mean something to us."

But that might be weird.

I sent @Wu Wei a telepathic message that RF's population
has swelled up with plump slow moving hikers.
(But then, every human is slow to a grizzly.)

You know.. I heard Grizzlies run away from bear-loving nymphos...

I have to wonder, if he was diabetic, why did he refrain from eating and have a couple beers? That's not really a good way to manage it.

I'm reading the UK economy is also showing warning signs of an economic slump, if not full recession. I wonder if a "no deal Brexit" would cause a recession in both the UK and US?

 

[PoetPhilosopher]

I may never be as content as I was at one point, but I've been focusing more on math and the like lately. I consider it a good sign as after my health decline, I had to relearn tieing my shoes just about. But I'm starting to get back to some of the more complicated things I used to think about.

Not at all.
UK and US can benefit from the € devaluation, but they need to be allies

A no-deal Brexit would not be the sign of confidence in good market performance investors are looking for. Trump's trade war isn't helping things, and a no-deal Brexit would through markets into a world of unknowns. It could potentially weaken the West to the point that China does emerge very far ahead. The market in regards to the trade war could adjust and stabilize after awhile, but adding a no-deal Brexit could topple things given the only certainty if that happens is no one is certain of what will happen as a result.

So, my car's engine blew, insurance won't cover a damn thing because it was mechanical, it'll take a week to get my car fixed, and I want to say for sure definitely I'm getting home tomorrow because I'm getting a rental car, but the way things are going I'm anticipating something that will again hinder my return home.

Good luck. Hope it works out for you

The dollar/euro market is very balanced ...the problem is that Germany plays dirty disrespecting the other EU countries on trade and that is why Trump wants tariffs on the European imports.
Brexit is necessary to allow UK to exit the EU and counterbalance Germany from the outside

Looks like it to me, the supermarkets have been stockpiling food just in case. The idea of a no deal has seen the value of the pound slump to its lowest level on record. And it hasn't come to that yet.

Germany was brought up in some of the articles I've read.

A no deal Brexit looks like it would be disastrous. There would be not doing much of anything except scrambling to figure out how to keep things from collapsing into chaos as the consequences would extend far beyond the borders of the UK.
