Doctor Jack's Stock Medicine

[IIC]

This post is very reminiscent of "The Stock Boy" and "Adman"....

Hey gdb.... What are you contributing to the forum? You've posted three times (total) on this HUUUUGE forum.... and two of those posts were negatively directed at me.

Why don't you play the POTW gdb? Are you a "professional" that's afraid of being locked up by the SEC too? Did your sister attend Princeton by any chance?

The "Docs" refusal to answer my post directly tell me something about the caliber member he is proving to be....

Geez Lye...We must be on the same wavelength...I was thinking the EXACT same thing...Doug

Doug,
I did have a hard time finding "experts" who actually picked a stock for the POTY contest and many of those aren't talking about those picks anymore. A typical quote would be " well I threw out a lot of promising stocks, but don't really recall one I said would dominate this year".
Coincidentally, one of the celebs that has a terrible pick in our contest just e-mailed me wanting $130 for his newsletter naming the must own stocks for today's economy.

I've been told that I "Throw spahgetti up against the wall and buy what sticks"...It was intended as a put down...But I took it as a compliment...Doug(IIC)

The difference here at this forum lies in the fact that we aren't a group of novices that haven't been around the block a few times ourselves an aren't intelligent enough to pour piss out of a boot. Our knowledge an experience levels are above the average stock pickers who listen to what most of the talking heads are pushing and who don't have the ability to discern the difference between the straight skinny and the dribble that most of them are putting out. That's probably the biggest difference in what is going on here and what is going on at most other forums. Keeping that level of quality intact takes speaking out and questioning others about what they are posting. At times that questioning and speaking your mind will certainly bring on disagreement among the parties but it's what keeps this forum operating on the level that it does and separates the wheat from the chaff. Having the grit an ability to withstand the questions and demands when someone else takes issue with your posts is going to be the standard for what it takes to function here with the rest of us. There are always other options to consider if the climate becomes unbearable but that remains up to each individual to weigh in their own minds. Those of us who have been posting here for longer periods of time have been able to accept this as a fact of life and have learned to live with how things go here. Those that can't have moved on to more accomodating environments that are more suitable to their personalities and motives.

Brilliant deduction Holmes!

Did MM or did MM not invite JH himself? If he did in fact find JH on myspace and extend an invitation to this board, what are the odds JH is in fact Adman?

This must be a case of "brilliant minds" thinking alike.

If you feel the need to respond please do it in your own thread. Thanks a bunch fella.

BTW, before you go trying to think again, I am not Jack Haddad. Happy trading.

What about getting on topic again, folks? This is Jack's thread. Feel free to criticize, but stop short of making a mess.

Regards,

Why did you send me a nasty and cutting private message this morning gbd?.... And why won't you receive private messages in return?.... There's a name for that, I think.

All I did was invite the "Doc" to play a friendly game. What's wrong with that? btw.... What stocks do you like? Why don't you participate in the general forum gdb?

[billyjoe]

Lye,
You ran the Doc off just as I was about to make my move for free orthopaedic advice, dammit.

I was just tryin' to be nice....

Lye,

Sorry BillyJoe.... Your orthopedic problems are probably too "silly" for the "Doc" anyway dude....

Maybe Webs and me can help you.... Answer these questions so we can evaluate your condition.

(1) Have you had an MRI lately?
(2) Do you have any "Boyd Staples" in your knee that are over twenty years old?
(3) Does your current doctor know and readily use the metric system?

[billyjoe]

Lye,

1.) No MRI either it or my leg would explode, too much metal

2.) Boyd Staples used to live next door to me ,he became one of the "staples singers"

3.) My doctor says he's 100% American and will stick to inches and feet

....My doctor says he's 100% American and will stick to inches and feet

Sounds like you're in good hands.... If you experience much pain just take two 800mg Motrin followed by four HUUUUGE swallows of 'The GoJi" and call me in the morning....

Dear Dr. Jack,

I don't know if you've become disillusioned to the point of leaving, but I hope not. I know you're probably feeling as though you've just been jumped. Who wouldn't? Anyway, all you did was decide not to join the POTW contest, and I was a little surprised at the reaction you got here--a bit excessive in my view. Please just chalk it up to a bit of over-exuberance on the part of those who really enjoy the contest. It's only because they really want[ed] you in there. If you think about it, it's sort of a back-handed compliment.

[Rob]

ps

p.s. If I were Ernie, I'd be a little torqued off that someone who had just joined the board on my invitation got blasted right off the bat like that.

It's ok by me..you guys ARE the forum. I happen to think that Dr. Jack is intelligent and a pretty nice guy. If he sees no upside in posting here, that's really up to him. If you guys want him back, you'll ask nicely I suppose.

What I'd really like to see is more of the regulars starting their own threads. This way the one on one dialogue stays a little more contained.
