Love that new performance chart you've added!

Thanks. I thought it was kinda cool too. It took a little tweaking to make it somewhat readable.

Sure. Could you?

I'm getting absolutely slaughtered in the POTW! What have I done to deserve this? If the rules allowed it, I would double my short position in the morning, IIC 100 be damned ;^) This is how I felt after my post:

It does look ripe for a pullback...as a matter of fact a lot of stocks do...Doug

GES sucks... It should have tanked...

Gee I didn’t know that Vulcan get emotional.

Gee I didn’t know that Vulcan get emotional.

Actually I was just stating a fact. GES does really suck.

You tell 'em, Rob! Keep him in reality!

Sticky, you are doing great, DUUUUUUDE! I hope I didn't get you into too much trouble with your mom. You know, in all truthfulness, in the back of her mind, she probably wasn't really angry with you.

How's school going for you? Any cute girls for you to chase around the halls?

Hey Peanut...it's cool.

Um...I'm taking Calculus 9C (third semester), Physic 4B (second semester), and Chem 1A in additional to my high school classes. I already got into trouble this week in the chem. Lab burning stuff up.

Dude you know what? I thought that if I skip high school I wouldn’t have to take two years of foreign language. I was wrong! They make you them you take them at the college.

Oh yeah...lots of cute girls at school but much better looking ladies at the college...everything looks taller and bigger.

BTW...I took Spanish in 4th grade, 6th grade, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th grade...Got an A in the end...And I can't speak a lick of Spanish...Although I do understand some of it when they are talking about me...Fake it to get an A.

I took 3 years of "machine shop practices" got A's and B's.... I got a job in a little shop @ the age of 15, I got credits for leaving school and working (in my Jr and Sr years).... I own a manufacturing company today.

I can't speak Spanish but I'm not to old to learn it. I do have a few Spanish speaking employees that I can't talk to, but their supervisor can.

In 1990 I bought a set of tapes called "Japanese with Ease" and listened to them in my truck for about a year.Sssssss! I have a few Japanese customers you see. I can ask for a beer, newspaper, taxi, pencil, water, chicken, and banana all in Japanese!LOL.... I can also say "excuse me" and "thank you".... I learned a few little Japanese sayings from a young Mechanical Engineer back in the early 90's (He's now the plant Manager). One is "The Customer is God (Kami)" [not literally, it's just a saying showing reverence to your customer].... Another is "Sometimes even a monkey (Saru) falls from tree".... This saying is appropriate if you have really tried diligently and have serviced the customer flawlessly.... then you screw something up.... Like miss a delivery date. It's better if the customer says it to you though.

To succeed as a customer of a hard-line Japanese Company it's not good to be presumptuous ... but humble. I have found that once you prove yourself, they are extremely loyal customers and don't mind paying a premium for quality and service.

So Jeisen.... You still speak Japanese?

Put me in CPTS long...Contest Over!!!

Uh oh ... the question is: for whom?

[Lyehopper]

trading....

Rob.... Please sell NEXT on the next tick.

I really thought the volume would pick up on this thing this week, guess I'm early. There's a little gap @ $13.34 that needs to fill first I guess. Park me in ca$h for now.
