My apologies for having to make so many omissions. Gotta go trade. Peace, RS7

Well, tomorrow evening my wife returns home. So no more postings from me between dinner time and when she falls asleep (usually around 9:30). Even then, I need to cut down. She keeps asking me why I bother talking to a bunch of idiots. She is unaware that the biggest idiot here is me. So now...

Yup, like I said, a true degenerate gambler. And in his case, a degenerate overall. :)RS7

OK, now I know what punishment to dish out. You won't be laughing then!!!! :)RS7

I remember that incident. The cool part of the story was when he walked out of the Horseshoe with no money, his comment to a reporter was "I've lost $200 lots of times!". Now I am not sure about this, but I think it was really not that much of a "marathon". I was under the impression it...

Damn right I am!!!!!!!!!!!! I was waiting for you 2mmmm cents:) :)RS7

OK Vladiator. Everyone gets one free pass. But next time, you will be subjected to something awful. I can't tell you what, because I haven't devised the next form of punishment yet. It, like our Constitution, is an ever evolving thing. The razor room has been done, and the getting locked up...

There are some private toll roads and bridges in the US. They are no pleasure. They are just exploited by the owners. Talk about having a "captive audience". Give me an Interstate Highway any day! (Toll free prefered). People will travel the roads that take them where they want to go, not the...

Can't argue with any of this. But that is only because it is true and accurate. Like I said about Johnson's Great Society...it was a good idea that didn't work as planned. And it was truly needed at that time (I'd like to think we have come far since then). I hated LBJ when he was president...

Hey Vlad, Excellent post. And of course there is a HUGE difference between socialism and communism. I think Daniel_M was probably just typing too fast and got ahead of himself. I know that he knows this. Your example of the public roads (infrastructure) is quite valid. Certainly reality...

Vlad, Damn fine English! My Russian friend has been here 30 years and is brilliant, but can't spell "cat". Taxes and society....Sounds like LBJ's Great Society. A good idea at the time. Didn't quite work out, just because of the inefficiency that is inherent in projects like that. Sort of...

Here ya go! Greenhouse Tolstraat 91 (673 74 30). One of the best in town, according to the jury of the Cannabis Cup. It has won several awards, so worth the detour from city centre. Greenhouse is a coffeeshop on two levels, with an upstairs pool room, and a colorful interior with...

Maybe, but you just sounded a little angry. What's the point? :)r

Chas, I am gratified to hear you say this. You had me worried this am. with your "freedom" post. But now you have reaffirmed my knowledge and belief in your good sense. :)RS7

Chas, you frequently refer to "the invisible hand". I am curious what this means. And I agree, freedom of any kind should, (in general), not be restrained. However, I am not quite sure where this is coming from. Who is restraining whom? If you are talking about pattern day trader rules, or...

I am starting to hear some music in my head. Sounds like Freddy Mercury: A sort of "thump, thump, thump another thread bites the dust" Well, at least it didn't degenerate quite as severely as "superstition, luck and Voodo". But in another hundred pages, it probably...

??? :confused:

Always a delight to get a little peek into someone's family life. Thanks to the Subliminal family. Now if Darkhorse Smith could get his mom, Anna Nicole to send her pictures to us, I am sure that Fasterpussycat would be elated. As for my own family, well my old man, Dick Grasso won't let...

Nope, had IBM and MU long overnight. Booked my losses and left for the day. :(RS7

Yup, I agree. I would actually rather LISTEN to Page, but I know that Stevie Ray was the better musician. At least technically. Page however was pretty damn creative. No doubt about Hendrix being the #1 guy though. :)RS7
