Jiesen tries to take over the world

Jiesen,
You and Mrs. billyjoe might get along well. The first thing she notices about a person is their veins. It gives me the creeps. Ironically, most phlebotomists regard me as not drawable. They were close to putting an IV in my neck which almost put me in shock, just the thougfht of it.

Hey Billyjoe,

Well, notice I said "give me 1cc of your blood" instead of "let me take" it. I'm as good as any lab tech with a pipet, but I'm no phlebotomist, and the thought of sticking a needle in someone else gives me the creeps, too. Anyway, I'm sure Mrs. Billyjoe and I would get along just fine, nonetheless!

when will I learn???

I'm beginning to see that the subprime mortgage sector is like a coal mine with a gas leak, and I just bought the canary as it started to look a bit tepid. Probably wasn't such a good idea to buy another one.

Not today! I just doubled up on NFI to a 5% position, at 5.07. Please wish me luck...

just give me 1cc of your blood, and in under 8 hours I can tell you whether you've got it. (or AIDS/HCV/HBV for that matter)

I bet you are FUN at parties

Next time I get West Nile Virus I'll give you a call...Doug

At least my employer had some good news today:

Maybe my stock options will go back in the money again this month...

rutro

just sunk another 2% into this sucker. hopefully I don't end up getting hosed on this one. I already missed my stop-out point, so I'm going to make up for it by doubling up. Not always a wise move, I know... c'mon 9.5! get me outta this jam!

bought NFI again at 8.5 today

bot NFI at 9.9

Took a 2% position in NFI today, looking for a quick 20-30% return out of this one. It's just gotta be oversold right now. There's still about $6 in dividends to be paid from 2006 in the share price right now, and the company has to be worth at least $4 or $5 after that, even with no profits until 2011... right? I mean, c'mon, BV is $15!

If there isn't any dead-cat bounce though, I'll probably cut it loose again for $9.5 or so before it bleeds me for too much. There could always be more bad news around the corner.

sold XING at $18

I sold the last of my XING today (about a 2% position) at $18. Finally done with this one now. Farewell, XING, old buddy!

bot LJPC @ 3.08

added another 1% today to my LJPC position. I think that's going to be enough for me at this price. If it gets down to $2.5 or so I might pick up some more again, though.

[jiesen]

bot LJPC @ 3.06

added to my LJPC position today at 3.06. Together with the options I'm exercising at the end of this month (strike price of 2.2-2.4) I'm adding approximately 1% of my port at about $2.8/shr. These were use-it-or-lose-it options, so I might as well.

Welcome back, Stenz! Nice to see you hanging out here again!
