        Ski,

        I know you hate me, but at least you can put up the right score ... My SIM play was a gain of $.77 per share for 4.22%. The THC trade is correct.

        Combined gain of 10.8% for the week, and now I'm in cash.

        Have a good night. Now that I don't hold THC, you can enjoy it all you want...

              Welcome home Ray! I hope all is well. I hate doctors, but I guess they're a neccessary evil. I seems like every time I go to see one I end up getting stiches. Sometimes i feel like a patchwork quilt. LOL

              To me having good health is better than any amount of money one could ever make. I'm going to go ahead and declare nothing but good health for you!

                Ski,
                Thanks for keeping score. I know it is a lot of work, and I want to tell you that I (and I know everyone else, too) appreciates it all.

                Now my question: I shorted TWGP at $33.66, and covered today at $30.05, for a gain of $3.61. $3.61 divided by $33.66 comes to 10.72%. Is that good enough for first place?

                  Peanust,
                  I've tried to hate you but it didn't work. You're just to pathetic for hatred. Ok, I'll fix you're score. Just kidding about the pathetic and hatred thing bud. No problemo. Trying to do this stuff in my head and fast ya know.

                  NBB,
                  Not according to my calculations it isn't. But then I was using "fuzzy math" and just trying to get close. I guess you expect me to adjust your also. A friend in need is a pest.

                  Ray,
                  Just this one time because you've been in the hospital and you're daughter has been hurt. But don't expect this kind of special treatment from me in the future. I tried to give you $29 or so and you wouldn't take it. That's it never again. I guess you want me to fix your score to. Ok but this is the last time.

                  You guys expect to much from me. What do you think my name is Rob?

                    On the off chance that your answer is "Yes"...Can you describe the date?...Where did you go?...What did you do?...How far away from Pittsburgh did she move?...Stuff like that!

                      I can add ya know NB. What's the matter don't you think I can add and subtract. And by the way it isn't good enough for 1st place tonight anyway. Mr. Peanut got you by .08 %. See what not using profanity does for you.

                        I see that $3000 a week post brought out the best in you guys.
                        Some big changes in the leader board today. Perhaps the biggest was my error in computing Peanuts percentages on his short position in THC. I just hear the letters THC and I go bonkers. Karel and Grebnet are in the 2nd and 3rd slots with Alice right on Greb's heels in the 4th position. 12 positions in the GREEN and 8 in the RED. That's a decent 66 % to the plus side. You have to be happy with those results for a group rating. Here are todays results. Any errors or ommissions please let me know and I take care of them pronto.

                        Boy you guys certainly take a guy for his word. What's the big problem with being a couple of dollars or a few percentage points off? Ok I fixed it this time but don't be pushing me to far with this being correct all of the time stuff. I never promised anyone a rosegarden or a politically or numerically correct POTW. Here's the corrected sheet. I guess I'm actually going to have to learn how to use the formulas. Well I hope you're all happy now. Ray, I'll put you in the right ranking order tomorrow morning or sometime. Just realized the 0 is higher than minus something. You should be in there right after Stkytreat. Isn't this more fun this way. At least I'm keeping everyone on their toes making sure their scores and rankings are correct. I told you I would need some help.


                        Ray is now in his correct slot with his correct entry and scores. I think everything is in order now. Let me know if there are anymore errors that need correcting as I am here to serve and take care of all your wishes.

                          Ski, this thread is awesome, dude

                          Doug, what on Earth are you talking about? Couldn't you tell that was a playful use of the English language?

                          btw: It's different here. In Pittsburgh, we don't go out on dates. If you're lonely, you just go to the bar and wait until you here this in a feminine voice, "I'm sooooooo drunk" That's the mating call. ATTACK!!!

                              Ski, is there any reason you don't use the spreadsheet Rob used?

                                No. Rob set me up with the spreadsheet at Google documents and I set up an account with them just so that I could use his sheet. I've been extremely busy with these two projects I have underway and I just haven't had the time to take a look at his sheet. I'm not sure how to use it anyway. I emailed Rob asking for instructions on how to use it and haven't heard back from him yet. I did want to try to learn and comprehend how to set up something similar to what he had done for myself in Excel. Karel has also been trying to help me with learning to set up and use the formulas but it really has been a matter of time on my part. I thought that over the weekend I would have some free time to spend on looking at Rob's and trying to get something viable set up to work for the one I have been using over he last couple of days.
