    New York: Where the Worst Drivers Live

    Yeah, in my Camaro... they are mouth breathers and unaware of what they are doing... I had one just right on my tail one morning, in a big pickup truck [go figure] there is not another car in sight anywhere.. I move over a lane, he moves over a lane.. I moved over and drove down the wrong side...

    Landis Can't See This Thread

    What economic indicators are supposed to help indicate a bottom?

    When the new sunspot cycle starts up like it did just a week ago, that precedes the upturn by a year or more.

    "Permanent job loss" fallacy. There is no permanent job loss!

    The biggest myth is that when productivity increases due to technical advances that the displaced workers retrain and get equivalent or better jobs... productivity has been rising fast all over the globe and all over the globe the manufacturing sector has been employing less workers per...

    Powell fires back

    Powell wants Republicans to be Democrats essentially. That is what "expand the base" stands for. Personally, I believe that if black voters woke up and realized that Democrats are what is keeping them out of the private sector workforce they could go get real jobs instead of public sector quasi...

    Iran calls Obama outside. Obama hides under desk.

    Our economic problems are a result of recurring political disasters really. I can't imagine debating with the Iranian President though... he believes that he has to destroy all of Israel and then the thirteenth Imam or some such entity will return from the well he went down into in the...

    Why is it scarier to spend money when you have it, then when you dont?

    Clearly, that might be just the case. The book "The Millionaire Next Door" spelled out what self made American millionaires are like, they have no class really, no style. They aren't stupid, they are just sort of artless drones that work and are able to build up a life for themselves.. I'm...

    U.S. Gov just spent 190 million on swine flu vaccine

    Swine flu is a joke, it's just another damn flu bug. Viruses [virii?] don't mutate in humans that much, they mutate in hogs and birds... stop raising pigs and the flu bugs would likely be half the virility they are, not that they are all that virile if you are not an infant or really old anyhow...

    New York: Where the Worst Drivers Live

    Tailgaters used to stress me no end. Then I got into playing dirty tricks on them like hitting the brakes when they or a passenger took a swig of coffee... then I realized that I was responsible for what is ahead of me, not behind... so I adjust the mirrors so I can't see what's straight behind...

    A not too expensive TA software please

    If you try to argue that in a real debate then you are trying to prove that something is impossible and philosophically that is a big no no. So you really can't prove that statement other than empirically and I pose to you that that is also unlikely. If somebody is using TA to make money they...

    Bridge and Dementia

    Thanks Art. It's ok if I call you Art isn't it? Dang, Bridge.. I can handle Euchre but Bridge, wow.. I hope that reading ET will make up for it... oh wait, I had to up my meds since I started reading this site, never mind.......

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    There are some really screwed up people that post an awful lot, and start a lot of threads on this site. This led me to study personality disorders, wikipedia is fine for that, they definitions are there and clear. I don't try to distance diagnose people but the general idea that there are a...

    Daytrading leads to Inevitable Failure? Is Swing Trading the only Viable Path?

    I didn't read this thread because the assertions of the OP were just, well, stupid. I can say that screen trading and automated trading work from two entirely different and nearly unrelated toolboxes.. I worked on automation for a number of years and finally I had some real intellectual...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    That's the thing, some expert says "5 pt stops, omg!!"... meaningless, it needs a context, how long will the typical trade last, is the system one with a few winners but they are big, or a lot of small winners, or for that matter maybe even a lot of big winners.. I think the poster was...

    why this board isn't healthy if you trade for a living

    If the theories about the unconscious are correct, the ones that say it can't understand a negative, then maybe ET is good for us. When some bitchy moron posts "You can't trade!!!" with great certitude, our unconscious takes it as "You can trade" with great certainty even, perhaps..

    GM bankruptcy would prompt removal from Dow-30

    Do you trade the first ten minutes?

    When I started this thread I was thinking in terms of a fixed period of time but now I see that there are occasional days where the market isn't talking my language for almost the whole first half hour but most days I'm good to go after about 6-10 minutes... I think there are occasional days...

    Landis Can't See This Thread

    Landis has me on his ignore list. He publishes his ignore list in Feedback. I can say anything I want to about the guy, he has me on ignore and can't see this thread... :) Hi Landis, how's that huge ignore list working out for you? I wonder if he just comes to ET to put people on ignore....
