Rob.... Buy SWSI please.

Backyard company for me... about 50 miles away. I used to date the daughter of one of the majority owners

These guys are so busy. I see them in ATL airport all the time... Talked to the guys once. A worker for them said that they are very busy "in the Rockies," as he put it.

NICE PICK!!! I've got some in my LT account, but not much.

Week 48 (9), Day 1

Don't you just hate those correction days? What a horrible day it was, virtually across the board today. A few amongst us managed to make a profit though.

Ski dominated most of the day, but right at the end Da Mighty Kong threw his banana peel under Ski's feet and took the lead.

Other than that the only others who ended up in the black on Cyber Monday are our two Js, Jblaze and Jiesen.

The plot thickens ...

I can't breathe down here, someone get off the heap

[Mary]

Oops!

I guess I can't play this week because I didn't make a pick prior to the market close on Monday, right?

I was going to write a post earlier asking what's the difference between saying "start me in CA$H" and not writing a post at all.

Now I think I know the difference.

Wah.

I say everyone's entitled to one oversight, especially a newbie to the whole process. My vote is for letting Mary in either tonight or tomorrow before the open. And treat it just as if she was in on time. I don't see where it's that big of a deal. But remember he or she who procrastinates can only procrastinate once in fairness to everyone else.

Rob is a very fair man.... He wouldn't do it for me or you Ski.... And he won't do it for his own sister. Next time Mary!

Well I wouldn't expect him to do it for us because we know better but Mary or any other individual new to the game and the rules could be allowed one oversight such as this. But no big deal in my mind one way or another.

Geez...I'm in 5th place and I have not even made a trade...Maybe I can be the first one to win by staying in ca$h...lol

Everyone would have to be in the red and then there are two others in cash with you. They would have to take a position and end up in the red with everyone else leaving you alone in cash. I'm betting against that scenario. But if anyone could pull it off it would be you Doug.

[Websman]

Rob, I'm ready to enter my first pick. I see that Ski is long on MED. Is it ok if I...

Short - MED

Wish me luck....jeeeeeeeeeeeejejejeeeee

It is my opinion that rules work best when they are consistent and applied equally to all. Only then can there be order and predictability. When I was two years old, I jumped off of a porch and broke my collarbone. The law of gravity granted me no mulligan just because of my relative inexperience, and that's they way it should be.

Sorry, Mary. Yes, now you know the value of taking a ca$h position if you're undecided on a stock pick. The "silver lining" is that if today is any indication of how the rest of this week is going to go, you might be better off with a 5% loss than you would have otherwise.

p.s. Thanks for the habanero dip mix you sent in the mail! I haven't whipped it up yet, but I will!
