For the first time in my life I’ve gotten a stiff neck. I bought a new mattress and fancy fucking pillow and it destroyed me. Now I can move my head about 5 degrees in each direction. If you’re talking to me, I’d need to move my entire body to see you — because my neck no longer accommodates such movements.
This is typical and also ridiculous, and here I am in pain — blogging like the wind.
I sold off some stuff today, booked gains and losses, and generated cash. With said cash I will do nothing. It’s also worth noting, I took out a hedge, in the hopes the market will plunge very hard into the close.
Bottom line: Markets do not bottom and Friday’s certainly not ahead of Labor Day weekend.

I have been through that many times so I bought a new pillow last week and so far, so good. Bedgear Storm 3.0. I bought it at PC Richards. They make it in 0.0, 1.0, and 2.0 which are all relative softness measures with 3.0 being the firmest. Worth a try. Returnable within 30 days.
200 bones for a pillow…interesting, thanks. I’m in search as well. A good self weighted lacrosse ball roll hitting trap/back/neck works wonders for quick remedies
I got it on sale but it was still a lot more than I would normally spend on a pillow. I justify it based on the fact that I spend a lot of hours with it cradling my most important body part so why not splurge? I spend money on so much bullshit so a hun fitty for something I get a lot of use out of ain’t too crazy.
Agree totally wasnt trying to negate. Just curious, thanks brotha
…well, perhaps 2nd most important body part.
The ladies would agree with that 😉
I got this bamboo thing for $20 at Home Goods. Firm and does the trick for me, although your $200 thing looks like something that would work for me, other than the price.

About a year ago I bought a full sized mattress in a box (hybrid) for the guest room.
I opened it up and the thing expanded out and it was huge. Turned out they sent me a king size so I contacted customer service and after some discussion (can’t exactly stuff it back into the box for a return) they shipped me a full size and said keep the king size as a gift.
Anyway, it’s a hybrid (cooling gel and memory foam on top of cylinder springs) and it’s the best.
Fly have you notice we are trading inside of a FAG Box?

Another holiday. How many DUIs this weekend?
Fly, I’ve gone no pillow for the last 30 years and rarely get a bad neck.
Only the pillow makers benefit from pillows.
Put your noggin directly on the mattress.
Thank me later.
You must be one of those dudes I see around town with no neck. If you sleep on your side, you need head and neck support. Back or stomach, maybe you can live without a pillow.
When I’m in the market for a new pillow – Naturally, the 1st place I think of is: iBankCoin! THE best pillow advice site, bar none.
Unfortunately, as the Fly said – if you’re over 37.5 yo; it’s already over for you. Save the $200 on the pillow and just roll your wheeled chair over lemming cliff or a hollow-point to the brain stem will do it.
Sorry, this will be off topic:
Back up the truck for silver stocks. The bugs have been saying this for 30 years. Will they be right this time? Eric Sprott may go from 1 billion to 50 billion if this happens.

Nothing to do with mattress or pillow. It’s called stress. Get a massage and a good glass of wine.
