    Mr. Speaker, The great state of Ohio which is hi in the middle and round on the ends, wishes to nominate a candidate for president who is full of gas and is always looking for more, let's give it up for UNT. For vice president we nominate a very handy man who actually with his own two hands crafted this beautiful podium from which I speak the very capable BMHC (building materials). If for any reason UNT cannot carry out his duties, or he repels our allies with his natural gas odor, BMHC will build a bridge to unite us with our friends.

      ELN for dictator

      Can somebody tell me where in the Sam Hill KingoftheHill is? After all the pushing, cajoling, encouraging, begging, pleading, reassuring, persuading and chortling about ELN, you'd think he would have nominated ELN for dictator by now. King, where ARE you?????????

      And don't tell me Merck for VP either.

        Billy Joe, Ihave been frantically looking for my prize DART. After the March Madness contest one of those FAT LADIES sat on my dart and Ihave been looking thru a lot of folds. So for now I will have to use the same dart that gave me ENRON.
        GLAD TO SEE YOU BACK BILLY.

        My dart throw for Pres. JOBS for vice. QCOM : - ?

        Good Luck To All

          Everybody watch out for RL. He wants us to think his picks are random dart throws. In reality, teams of uber-nerds in white lab coats (RL assistants) are running around a huge pole building containing RL's supercomputer. The lights all over Tonawanda dim as a googleplex of calculations result in the spitting out of a small piece of paper from the tecnological marvel. The head nerd removes the paper, without looking at it, and delivers it to RL's study,where a confident recluse eccentric (RL) reads the two four letter symbols, jauntily nods his approval, logs into $$MrMarketishuge$$.com, and types in JOBS and QCOM as his candidates. Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction!

                SBUX for President

                That's right. Starbucks coffee to the rescue, "reporting for duty." HaHaHa...
                er, never mind. My picks are SBUX and for Vice Prez, CVT.

                Hey, somebody has to finish last.

                  RL's pick of JOBS is an EXCELLENT choice. I featured it in my Weekend E-letter this morning under IPO Watch. I rate it as a STRONG WATCH at this point...and believe me...I will be watching it...IIC

                    Look at JOBS chart, totally vertical. What does that mean? It means that RL is scaring the crap out of me and the contest doesn't start for 36 more hours!

                      I'm not worried. I have great picks.
                      Buy Low
                      Sell High
                      STAY FROSTY!

                        3 days of trading...I'd wait...here is a copy of what I said this morning FYI:

                        IPO Watch

                        This is an interesting one... JOBS ...It is a Chinese Employment Service Co. The offering on Wed. was $14. The IPO was delayed but the offering was higher than first anticipated by $1.00 to $3.00. It opened at $18.98. The Friday close was $26.30. I'd rate it a Strong Watch at this point. You can view their website, but be prepared to pack a lunch...It is the slowest site I've seen in a long time...especially the English version. Here is the site addy http://www.51job.com However, if you are interested in reading about this company, here is a Google page you can use: http://trimurl.com/IT

                          President - FMD - First Marblehead

                          Vice Pres - RMBS - Rambus
