OK...I upgraded my DSL to Elite...Takes 3-5 days...so I'll see how it goes on the speed...I only had Express...then they have Pro and then Elite...I didn't know that...my wife never shows me the ads in the phone bill...But a buddy told me that he upgraded from Express to Pro and it was much faster.

So I get out the phone bill...log on and find out I can get Elite for a year at the same price I pay for Express (ATT/Yahoo)...IIC

OK...took affect today...my avg before was 1150-1250...Got up to 4200 so far this evening...Most sites are much, much faster...But sorry...Ernie's site still took 45 seconds...It comes up immediately but then stalls???

"Underpinnings" ain't exactly "strong" they just hide cement blocks!....

Dear Mr Market,

I have an observation and suggestion..... In your introduction to the website you mention buying stocks of companies with solid financial "underpinnings". Now I've been a member here for a few years and I never really thought too much about that statement before.... but now I have.

In Bedford County VA we have alot of folks dwelling in mobile homes aka "trailers".... A trailer doesn't really have a foundation under it, just some cement blocks and metal straps securing it to the ground. Then after setting the trailer on blocks you'll attempt to disguise the fact that your house is simply sitting on some concrete blocks with metal straps.... So you build a facade around the bottom of the trailer to hide what's really underneath. That facade is commonly called "underpinning" a trailer....

Now I know that the true definition of underpinning is indeed "foundation".... but down here it means to skirt a trailer!.... Based on THAT fact alone, I think you should change the wording in your intro FROM "solid underpinnings" TO "solid foundation"....

I appreciate your graciousness oh HUGE one!.... Thanks to your informative stock market discussion forum, I have done very well in the market so far this year.... as the picture below so aptly attests.

I thought I'd share since there's several victims involved (I'm one of them); might be good to share and come up with justice.

Billy...I sorta use my own colloquial type language(Like the ... I use the dots... so I don't have to think about what is correct)...Rob picked up on it long ago...That way nobody can accuse me of poor grammar...It is just IICESE.
