    Mock Election

    Lets see, Obama rhymes with Osama, his middle name is Hussein and he attended a muslim school in the 60's. A big PASS on that one. Mitt Romney - Is this guy fake or what.... RON PAUL for President. It's going to take a Libertarian mind to pull this country out of the morass we're heading...

    Solar Panels so expensive

    Well I'm no expert on this, but it probably has to do with three things, the cost of the semiconductor material (i.e. silicon), demand for the product (which is low) and competition among suppliers (not many).

    Solar Panels so expensive

    We need to attack the MidEast oil dependency problem, with the same tenacity, that engineers & scientists tackled the technical problems in the 60's of going to the moon. The problem is that big oil companies are so entrenched in present day politics. Here's some new technologies that are...

    Sarah Silverman on Paris Hilton

    And that dorky TV show The Simple Life. Her famous line from that show went something like "Walmart, what's that? What do they sell walls?"

    Sarah Silverman on Paris Hilton

    C'mon, the whole thing was probably planned. She has a creative publicist, who has made this girl millions. She's a no talent, good looking, party girl that's shown big bucks daddy, that she can bring the $$'s in too. Like it or not, she'll be more famous than ever, when it's over. I can...

    Daytrading 1999-2000

    Back then it was all about momentum stocks and Direct Access. A list of hot stocks and a 30 min. O.R. breakout to the Long side was all you needed. Everybody thought they were traders.......then came March 2000 :eek:

    1-2 ES points a day

    Then you're stating that a newbie will have a 100% win rate every day. Is this correct? It doesn't work that way.

    1-2 ES points a day

    I haven't read the entire thread, so please excuse this if already covered. It's fine to say one can make a living off a consistent 1 - 2 ES pts/day, but the discussion's incomplete if the # of roundtrips and commissions is not included. If a roundtrip costs you $5.00/contract and it takes...

    The end is near: Why only in America?

    General statement, not referring to you specifically. I'm a hardass when it comes to welfare issues, but I stand behind my statement of public assistance for specific handicaps, such as mental retardation. As humans, we can only take Darwinism so far. Although, Welfare Broodmares should be...

    If you could live anywhere

    Yea, both Portland & Seattle have some street urchins, but they're pretty mellow. I never felt uncomfortable walking in Portland. Atlanta, now that's a whole different story. As for the rain, in the Northwest, it either bothers you or it doesn't. There's consistently misty weather from...

    The end is near: Why only in America?

    I believe public & private money should help those with mental/physical handicaps. Those that want help to get off drugs should be given free public help. With few exceptions, all others should be allowed to expire. Its the best way. Sorry no PC here.

    If you could live anywhere

    I agree 100%. I prefer it to Seattle. Smaller and more intimate. Fantastic city for walking around....great coffee and book shops, nice people. For architecture fans, Portland has beautiful old refurbished homes in the hills above the city with unforgettable views of Mt. Hood & Mt St...

    Is this story for real?

    I hope this kid REALLY likes BBQ & bacon. I can picture his dad at the backyard grill this weekend brushing BBQ sauce on ribs the size of elephant tusks. :D
