Posted - Oct 13 2008 : 14:28:19 Same here, Sting. But LOL at everyone who sold off near the end of the fall last week. I'm guessing there will be some profit-taking tommorow, but hopefully this is a sign of generalized improvement. |

Posted - Oct 13 2008 : 14:15:16 Dow 9,387.61 +936.42 (+11.08%) NASDAQ 1,844.25 +194.74 (+11.81%) S&P 1,003.35 +104.13 (+11.58%)
I'll take these numbers. Hopefully in a couple of years, I'll be back to where I was. |

Posted - Oct 13 2008 : 13:05:49 It's not how far you fall that matters; it's how high you bounce, baby DJIA +778 last time I checked  |

Posted - Oct 08 2008 : 23:24:13 Heart, you are just full of investment advice, aren't you? 
It's scary just how much of our monetary wealth is based on nothing more than emotion. If you are invested in anything other than underneath your mattress, then all it takes is panic on the part of lots of people who you don't even know to make the bottom fall out. |

Posted - Oct 08 2008 : 17:40:06 If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you will have $49.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you will have $33.00 today. If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you will have $0.00 today.
But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you will have received a $214.00.
Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.
A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon!

Always wanted to use that.  |

Posted - Oct 08 2008 : 16:47:56 yes, Older, the public forums.
we have lost another couple hundred points today. i am supposed to recieve a statement about my 401k soon. this is why it's important to me, as i'm mid 40's and my investments are my house and my retirement plan.
everything else in this thread is is needless melodrama compared to some harsh realities . . . |

I want to see everyone at BF2 tonight on Bloody's server. I'm leaving early just so I can play with most of you as usually when I finally get on there are only a few of you left. |

Posted - Oct 08 2008 : 09:21:58 Biff, you are certainly free to completely ignore my alternate site, but leaving the OMO is not being called for.
And I third HB's motion. |

Posted - Oct 07 2008 : 22:20:33 Agreed HB |

Posted - Oct 07 2008 : 22:13:13 As much as I disagree with your posts and find alot not accurate I will not call you a lier. You believe it. That is your right.
As for consideration for other OMO I care about all of them, even you. Alot of my post were in response to other posts. You can look at that also. I will take a vacation and If the OMO want me to leave I will . I still say that poeple should be able to post and express when they want.
Just let me know what you guys want |

Posted - Oct 07 2008 : 17:45:43 Well... when there is Truth, any other way is simply not the Truth. But in that regards, I am looking at the whole of creation, not just man's thoughts about his fellow men.
Biff, you are certainly free to completely ignore my alternate site. I just plug it now and then to remind people that it is there for political stuff, not just to tell people to STFU... which, just to clarify in case it was not clear, I am not saying. |

I am about as real and honest as they come. Petri, I don't care to be redirected to a site that you have set up for politics. I was happy here but some can not handle the truth and took the THTH down. They were afraid that someone might read it and see the truth.
Also, One has called me a lier, won't call his name as he knows it. He does not know me and apparently did not read all the posts I did. He made the statement I said some things that I did not. If he went back and checked he would find that He was wrong. I believe in clearing the air.
While the forums are all but dead sense the takeing down of the THTH I hope those that can not handle discussing politics are happy and haveing a good time sucking their thumbs. They got their way.
That liar bit, It was me. There, no dirty little secrets from what you would call thumb suckers. I'm not apologizing for it either. It's my belief.
I have read your posts. Some I agree with, some I vehemetly oppose. My biggest beef is you have no consideration for other OMO's here. If one person brought down the THTH it would have been you. It was a majority vote that took it down the THTH not me.
Your incessant posting of your political views without consideration or regard of other OMO's beliefs, insisting that your 'truths' is the only way that this world has changed the spirit of the OMO. It used to be about friendships. And this argument between you and me has increased the strain.

Posted - Oct 07 2008 : 15:47:00 Speaking of slinging crap.....
Anyone hear about Wachovia and what they did to Citi? Sort of lame. "Well... I don't know... Maybe you can buy us out.... No, wait, nevermind, while you were talking I hooked up with Wells Fargo. Screw you guys." |
