Anybody that renounces their US citizenship for any reason is no friend of mine. Templeton was still a great stock picker, and I admire that. I don't demand perfection from anyone.

Here's an interesting piece that appeared in this weeks issue of San Diego's Gay and Lesbian Times:

I care about this country too, but I have the same chance of getting into the White House as Ron Paul. How could Ron Paul go on national televsion to discuss eliminating the income tax and not even bother to find out how much the govt takes in from income tax? How could he discuss bringing...

Ron Paul still winning in a landslide in the latest AOL poll? Still raising record amounts of grassroots money? Whatever happened with that record amount of grassroots money anyway? You would think that the non-sheeple Paulites would be asking.

NYC Stockbroker Acquitted in Cycling Class Attack Tuesday , June 03, 2008 ADVERTISEMENT A Wall Street stock broker has been acquitted on charges of throwing a fellow health club member into a wall during a cycling class. A Manhattan Criminal Court jury found 44-year-old Christopher...

WTF?? what happened to my post about San Diego?

But my indictment still stands - the board is overmoderated. I would ask all mods to always give the benefit of the doubt to the poster and always give second and even third thoughts before altering a post in any way. Most members here deserve that respect.

And I should mention too, that the members here shouldn't be asking the mods to delete posts that they don't like either. Magna mentioned that in his reply to me earlier. So it works both ways, that was a good point, Magna.

I take the written word seriously, yes. There is no need to delete a youtube video out of someone's journal even if it contains politcal comments. It's not the least bit harmful. The whole point of a message board is to facilitate communication. But mods make it a point of stopping...

You guys are over-moderating this board. It would be more appropriate for those delicate and sensitive souls who are offended by comments remotely political to just stay the fuq out of Surf's journal. Surf's a contributor here, he deserves more respect than that.

Your San Diego guys? I didn't know you had an office in San Diego. There used to be one here back in the late 90's, but it closed, right?

I'm not reading all that.

I hope you learned something here. That thing being humility. There's probably been hundreds of ET'ers wrong about the markets but there was no celebration for them leaving the site for it, because they weren't acting like jackasses. You've got a lot of enthusiasm for the market, I like that...

The WSJ article about him today said that he was a naturalized British citizen. As far as taxation goes, that would be like jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire wouldn't it? Aren't UK taxes higher than the USA?

If you had asked me a year ago if this crap would still be going on today I would have said no way.

By Jonathan Stempel NEW YORK (Reuters) - IndyMac Bancorp Inc (IMB.N: Quote, Profile, Research) on Tuesday said depositors were withdrawing cash at an "elevated" pace after a prominent U.S. senator recently questioned the big mortgage lender's ability to survive the U.S. housing crisis...

Stopped out of ICO @ 9.93. What a disappointment.

60 years after his death, he is still talked about by fellow traders. If you're up there reading this Jesse, it's ok to finally smile and be happy.

Reminesinces is being referred to as "the book", actually there are other books about Livermore, one by Richard Smitten goes into great detail about him. Smitten interviewed the wife of Jesse's oldest son. She told Smitten that Jesse Jr. said that his father's trading and personality changed...

We had a cop near San Diego CA that had a hard on for drunk drivers. He would wait off duty in his personal vehicle with his badge and gun in the party area of downtown and then chase down people he thought was drunk in his own car. He did it last year and the driver of the vehicle got out of...
