“Regulators are bracing for 100-200 bank failures over the next 12-24 months,” While not expected to be as bad as the Reagan era Savings and Loans debacle not a great sign for the middle-working-class Americans.  Most of the readers who pass by here probably already know, but for those that don’t, most banks have deposits, including IRA insured by the FDIC (see the link for limits) . The FDIC was created during the Great Depression by Roosevelt. So no reason to panic unless your account is at Fred and Ethel’s Discount Banking and they don’t have FDIC.

According to Co-Ed Magazine and Durex (who one would assume has a vested interest) when it comes to sex, Americans need to put more into it, According to Durex Global Survey

Americans spend nearly three hours every week grooming themselves, but less than one hour on foreplay and sexual intercourse. It’s no wonder that only 46% of us describe our love lives as exciting, or existent for that matter.

On average, Americans spend 35 minutes on foreplay and sexual intercourse each session.

Maybe the average American has pretty much the sex life they want. If not maybe what they’re not good at is actually communicating with their partner. And doesn’t that grooming number seem a little low or are most people just faster shower takers then me.
