    I'm slowly honing and perfecting my investing technique. You may remember several months ago my "buy any stock with CAL or LA in the symbol". Now another one "never short or long any stock whose symbol starts with an "ES". Am I right , Lye?

    In real life I sold my first stock of the year STX for a 9.1% gain. Wanted to start the new year right and I'm kinda jumpy about the market right now.

    LOL.... seems that way BillyJoe.... ESLR is still a good short imo.... I just shorted ESLR in the POTW a day too early.... I think I'll still finish green today. I'm holding it short in real life too.
    BEEF!... it's whats for dinner!

            Look at AAI. I may consider shorting it on a pullup...uh...is that what you would call it? A pullup instead of a pullback...or would it be a pullforward?

                          Lye,
                          I'm having problems with steak just not turning out quite right. Do you marinate? Also could use some BBQ tips. Thanks

                            I went to Cracker Barrel and ate some Catfish to celebrate my POTW victory. Afterwords I went to Lowes and bought a new tiller, so I can plow up a garden this year.
                            Then I came back home so I could bask in the glory of my victory and watch the doggies run...

                              NOOOOO! I never marinate a fine cut of beef, that's unthinkable! I like to taste the beef.... The key is to buy a quality steak first of all. I like mine a little rotten.lol I like good marbling.... Angus or SimAngus cross (just my preference).... The steer should be finished off to about 1,200 pounds on good corn and/or corn silage.... The side (or loin) should be dry aged around three weeks @ about 36-38 degrees. Now once you've picked the right steak simply grill it on a med to high flame, I put a little garlic salt and ground black pepper on each side and flip it four times altering the direction on each turn making a nice checkerd pattern on the meat..... BEAUTIFUL! medium rare with the center being red and barely warm.... mmmmmmm!!!! I like Ribeye's and T-bones but I've been eating filets for a few years now, I used to think that was a girls steak.lol.... It's hard to go back to a ribeye after eating a fine thick tender filet.
                              BEEF!... it's whats for dinner!
