Refresh my memory...Who is Godot???...I did a search and I can't find any Godot

actually he might be in Cardinal land right now pulling for the birds against the mets.

where is Dave?

He said he was moving to Texas.... Maybe he got lost, it's a pretty big place I'm told.

where is Dave?

Dave was most likely put off by the incessant demands that he provide indepth, excruciating details about the stocks he likes. I thought it was pretty obvious that he's a technical trader and that one does not need 2 dozen reasons to initiate a trade based on technicals? I apologize if I'm oversimplifying, but in fairness to Dave he explained why he couldn't provide a thesis for each stock pick. Granted he offended a few posters in the process but that's Dave. I would suggest that if the offended posters are too thin-skinned to take some blunt criticism from Dave or anyone else, that they may not be able to handle the extreme rudeness that the market tends to offer on a regular basis. Just my thoughts.

I'll miss him. He is an excellent trader.

Dave always has "an opinion" and many times it's critical. I personally don't mind critical posts and I read Dave's thread (and everyone elses for that matter). But in "their" defense the "members" who questioned Dave, still seem to be here. I don't think they are "offended".... Truth be known, maybe Dave is a bit "thin-skinned"....

Good point Lye... You're pretty damn smart for a rancher...were you a Hokie?

Thanks.... But in defense of cattlemen.....SsSsSssssss!

Tatnic.... I'm from NC originally but I've been in SW VA since "84" so I've lived here longer than I lived there, thus I claim to be a Virginian now. (I absolutely love it here btw).... I was always an NC State Wolfpack fan. "State" is an Ag school much like VA Tech so my adopted favorite school is VA Tech, but I root for the Pack every chance I get. As for college? I attended UHN.... The University of Hard Knocks.LOL!

lol...you ranchers are the smart ones. Ever since I was a youngun I've wanted to live on a farm. The closest I came was when I lived on a hog farm along the New River south of Blacksburg (near the mouth of Tom's Creek)...damned if I can remember what the area was called but it'll come to me eventually. The guy that owned the farm (also raised quite a few beef critters) was a coach at Tech, but I can't recall his name either.

Btw...Frank Beemer was my baseball coach in Radford (he coached baseball and football there before going to Tech) and he was one of the most likeable and well-respected guys you'd ever run into. I not surprised to see him doing so well at Tech.

Just guessing here ... was it Eggleston Flats? That's one of the few places I know of in that general area, because it's where Adam Harmon found Mary Draper Ingles almost dead after she escaped from the Shawnee in 1755 and walked all the way home from Kentucky, near Ohio. I've been down there, and it looks like a beautiful, peaceful place.

Blacksburg used to be known as "Draper's Meadow" in the old days.

Roanoke was known as "Big Lick"....

Hey Rob.... In Bedford County there's an area called "Body Camp".... Do you know about that?

No it wasn't quite that far downriver...I was only a few miles south of Price's Forks. I haven't been back to that neck of the woods in a long time. I guessing that many of the farms have been subdivided by now. It was at the time very beautiful country, maybe it still is!
