Louetta's Lore

Hi Ringo. I have always stood up for you and insisted that you are a much better drummer than that for which you've been credited.

He still talks through his nose, though.

Then your choices are pretty much limited to:

1) Research Analyst (you'll need an MBA from a top school)
2) Operations (you'll need an MBA from a good school)
3) Compliance (you'll start at the bottom and the pay is low); or
4) Public relations.

Many people at our place in Arts and Sciences consider the business school inferior to the undergraduate school not mind the graduate school.

I would hire her on the bare shoulder look alone.

Thats good since I'm somewhat deficient in other female features.

She goes to a Top school but she's not going for an MBA...according to my Crystal Ball

Most of the people in the business school are kind of old. (30ish looking)

Thanks a lot Louetta...But here is something for you to ponder...Could you be aging FASTER than I am???

I'm 53 (Until Tatnic proves otherwise) and you're 22...So you are 41.5% as old as I am...Right???

Let's jump into my Time Machine and go forward 50 years...I'll be 103 and you'll be 72. So in 2056 you'll be 69.9% as old as me...So who's aging faster??? ...IIC

That's a matter of opinion

A simpler way to look at it might be that each year I get about 5% older (a little less now) whereas each year you get only about 2.5% older.

Here's another view.

[Louetta]

I kind of shy away from doing things retrospectively but on 9/13 I sold some covered calls on ASPV (a Little Book That Beats The Market stock). Bought ASPV at $25.65 and sold QOSJE (an October $25 call) at $2.00. It did nothing til today when the stock went up to $26.73 and the call to $2.40 so maybe if it continues to go up I'll need to manage the position which can be fun. It would be nice if there were a $27.50 call but there ain't so I won't be able to do anything unless and until it either heads toward $30 or we get near enough to expiration (10/20) to make rolling it out timely. Anyway I enjoy messing with this stuff so I thought I'd post it.

Trading on my call today is shown on yahoo as 1 contract. I have 8. If I ever want to roll it before it expires it could be hairy finding a seller.

Here's another view.

For some reason ALTRIA sent me a free digital camera last week...I have no idea why...Maybe they figure that if I mention it on enough boards that they get their money back in FREE advertising???

I get a lot of free stuff from companies...Never have been able to figure out why...But I'm not gonna complain. As soon as I figure out how it works maybe I'll throw up some pics since Billy thinks I'm sooooo photogenic.

Actually, I don't think I am (But what's my opinion against millions of others anyway???)...I'm more known for having a voice like the "Movie Guy"...Do you know how many women ask me to record their VM announcement???

Is this another contest? I'll take 2.

Doug,
My ex-broker used a similar arguement to prove that his recommendations were 50% better than my quarterly statements showed.

Now how on Earth am I supposed to think about the market with this new picture being issued???

Close guess...but wrong...only 1
