The biggest news that no one in the Republic is talking about right now. In short China has threatened to devalue the dollar by liquidating its foreign reserves. A lot of that (upwards of $900 billion [a U.S.A. billion not a British trillion, there is a difference]) is the U.S. dollar.

Of course it may be alarmist or simply fiscal saber rattling to keep the PRC's yuan from being revalued or trade sanctions.

Cassius, one of the participants in the ongoing saga of Asbury Park by Night and generous physical trainer, wanted me to start eating red spinach. Most of the dream had me eating red spinach leaves and being thoroughly disgusted by them in the same fashion I was disgusted eating three ounces of spinach on Tuesday.
He kept saying that I couldn't use his heavy bag or learn any fighting techniques until I ate all the red spinach. So I'd force a handful of the stuff into my mouth, look over at the heavy bag hanging from the ceiling, eat more red spinach and look at the heavy bag.
"What the hell am I doing?" Common sense was telling me that I could punch and beat anything I wanted and I didn't need Cassius or his training equipment. "Shit, I don't even want to vent my frustrations on anything!"
With this epiphany the dream ended.
