We have an ethanol plant just a mile from the church. Makes the entire town smell like a brewery. Don't you know what 'corn liquor' is? It's whiskey. Ethanol is pure whiskey. They add 5% gasoline to the product before loading it into railroad cars to keep people from drinking the stuff.

Corn liquor is not whiskey.... Yet whiskey is made from corn liquor. Ethanol is not whiskey nor is it liquor. AND a brewery smells nothing like a distillery. If the town smells like a brewery it may be because people there like to drink a LOT of beer. Some people drink rubbing alcohol but it ain't whiskey either.

There's No Place Like HOM

I notice HOM is up about 15½% on the day right now.

Only 11 more straight days of 100 point gains and all our problems will be over. Would have been 10 if we'd have hit 200 today.

Week 24 (11), Day 4

Once again, BoSox is the cat's pajamas! Even though he lost a little ground in points, he still sits at the head of the class!

Lyehopper moves into 3rd with CEDC (a stock I turned him onto) but didn't pick up quite enough momo to surpass Jiesen in 2nd place. Of course, Jiesen's got no more ammo this week. Gettin' a little nervous there, Jiesen ol' buddy, ol' pal?

The rest of those with positive finishes are: the Peanut Man, Sticky, the Q, Runner, Alice B. Toklas, Gator-dude, and Darth Vader's 3rd cousin 10x removed, Spikefader. Yes, things are definitely looking up, and Jiesen is no longer the only long on the plus side.

Another wonderful day for the markets. Let's see, how many is that? Oy yeah, two in a row!

Dow 11,015.19 +198.27

S&P 500 1,256.16 +26.12

Hey Spike...I like that scrolling thing you set up at PSP...Doug(IIC)

Thanks Doug. Real simple to set up if you ever wanna do it. Download unfreez.exe from http://www.whitsoftdev.com/unfreez/ and then drag and drop in whatever .gif images you want and set the frame delay (not sure what the unit cs is..maybe call seconds?? but 100 is a pretty good number) then click "make animated gif" and bingo, you've got a scrolling gif. Imageshack takes them and links the usual way.

Rob, I swear dude, I sold BWEB at 3:17... close that position at that time .... I could have set a record here, I just forgot to post

[Rob]

Sorry, Peanuts

Peanuts, I believe you, and I feel for you, dude, but there's no way I can log the price sooner than the timestamp on your post. Next thing you know there would be chaos. And trust me, sometimes it's plenty chaotic enough just trying to keep up with it the way it is.

Week 24 (11), Final Results

And it's BoSox Jon for the gold! Even though he lost a little ground trying to put the moves on us with MOVE, his earlier HUGE gains on ESCL were enough to put him over the top! Good play this week, Big Bo!

Ol' Ray must've held his tongue juuuust right as he masterfully gripped that dart, squinted one eyeball, and zeroed in on the target this week, 'cause he came up with a HUGE winner in MIKR! Rock 'n' roll, Ray!

Ol' Jiesen hung onto 3rd with that zinger, XING, and is awarded the bronze this week. Well done, Jiesen old bean! (Psst ... nobody tell him this, but he'd have won the whole deal if he'd held onto XING. It'll be our li'l secret.)

Thanks Mr. Rob for your kind words. I just knew there was a little gas left In the tank. So I'm going to fill up again this week and see If I can't win this thing.

[billyjoe]

Congratulations BoSox Jon and Ray for a good job on a bad week.

Peanuts...Just because you have come the closest in calling the market bottom...So far anyway...Doesn't mean timestamps don't apply to you...LOL

I have been helped by them...and I've been screwed by them...Such is life...Nice try though...Doug(IIC)
