Sometimes, it messes with my eyes so much when I read your posts that I just give up and move to the next post. I'm probably missing out on some really great thoughts. But it's not worth it for me to try to decipher your posts.

    oh yeah, congrats to Peter and Billyjoe!!!

    and another oh yeah, VIP short
    The rules for the first game are on the first page of the initial thread. The newer revised rules for the game after I took over the scorekeeping and Karel separated the two threads are on the first page of the newly separated thread and the beginning of my scorekeeping. I implore each and everyone of you to spend a moment reading thru them. Thank you.

    I know that I do run on at times with my sentence length and thoughts. I will try to do make them shorter and more concise for everyone's ease of reading. One of the reason that I don't double space between paragraphs is to conserve on the length of the posts.
    I've gone over the two posts above, both are somewhat lengthy and I personally don't see a problem with the spacing between breaks for paragraphs but for everyone's ease of reading I have gone back and double-spaced these last two posts and will continue to do so on all my posts from now on.

    Your last sentence doesn't surprise me at all. Lacking the patience to read through any worthwhile information that could be significant
    to your making money or education is not my problem and is something that you are going to have to work on within yourself. I cannot imagine where in your new position you won't have to deal with many people who write and speak with their own personal ideosynchrocies and styles. Not having the percerverance and determination to read and absorb their written thoughts, regardless of how they put them on down on paper or convey them in any other fashion, isn't going to help advance your career. I can imagine telling your superiors that you didn't have the patience to wade through their thoughts because of the way they presented themselves and that their thoughts ran on and on and it was hard for you to concentrate and stay with reading the material thru to the finish.

    Having said that I will do my utmost to make the way I present anything written here in a clearer more precise manner, but I am not going to wipe anyone's ass if they cannot or will not put forth the effort to help themselves. As usual I always enjoy and learn from the feedback of anyone participating here and you can count on my spending the time to read all of it through and give each suggestion or thought 100% of my attention.

        I was only referring to your previous posts. Thanks for fixing them. I went back and read them again. I'm still not any smarter.

        Thanks for the career tip. You could work for a headhunter.

        The only superiors that I know of are the secretive supreme leader of the VTP and you. It's so nice to have you here to keep us plebeians in line and informed. When I read your posts, I normally think, "what more can he possibly give of himself?" .

        Thanks again for running the contest, dude. I'm surprised that you haven't asked me to bring back some exclusive shiraz from Australia for your wine collection. Did you know that they use screw-tops for the wines that are meant for the Australian domestic market? They say that the cellar life is 5 years. I have only found a few wineries that actully use corks in their bottles.
        Hide not your talents.
        They for use were made.

              I remember the ticker from a while back. Somehow, the stock dropped from my screens. I'm not sure the reasons why this is. The chart does look good. Thanks Jerry

                  Mimo and StkyTreat,
                  In light of the fact that this is only a game to be enjoyed by all of us you and Stky can forget the 3% penalty for staying in CA$H this week. Everyone else gets one free week to stay in CA$H any week they want to exercise it in this year. Once and only once you guys.

                      When Peanuts brought it to the forum I looked at it and thought what a beautiful short. It was right at the b wave completion and had one partial day of the c down. It looked good and the next day with the big drop took it way down. Peanuts hit it perfect but now I think the c down is down or maybe a little bit further on Monday a.m. and then it begins another series of 1 thru 5 up. It's a percentage play in my mind. The c has to finish somewhere and right around where it is at now is good. The risk/reward right here is real good. I would risk about 1 point to make 5 or 6. I like the pattern right here in the c down completion.
