This one made it onto my radar in the week ending 8/3/2012 when it made a new high with an increase in volume. It also reminded me of Nutrisystem, which I made a nice little chunk of change with back in 2005. Hopefully MED will offer a repeat for me now. I bought MED yesterday at 28.50.

Weekend coming up. My old friend would usually call me on Thursday to ask if I could come up and give him a ride to the bank, drug store, etc. I always said yes, it was never an issue, even though I would sometimes think it was a pain in the ass cutting into my weekend time. Now that he's passed...

I still don't get it. Ah well, I already knew I was dumb as fuck well before you posted the puzzle.

This is starting to look like a ruse by a Romney campaign operative. Harry Reid would not be stupid enough to make such a brash statment unless he thought he had seen Romney's returns. Could they have been false returns designed to get Reid to do exactly what he did? Either that I have...

This is what I've been waiting for Romney to say. Supposedly, Reid has seen the tax returns provided by a Bain insider. If not, why did Reid make the statement that Romney had not paid taxes? Reid got that information from somewhere, and it had to be someone he trusted. If there was...

Maybe it's more likely that Biden would remove hiimself from the ticket, (of course with a gun in his back), rather than Obama admitting he made a mistake by kicking him out. There's no way in hell that Hillary Clinton would join the ticket, she has absolutely no interest in saving Obama.

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57492488/george-zimmermans-attorneys-wont-use-stand-your-ground-defense/?tag=re1.channel I guess it makes sense - it looks like he is trying to show that Zim was trapped and unable to retreat, hence he was not "standing his ground". This is a very...

One other comment of SPLS, back on 12/02/2011 I made a note that Joe Rosenberg, chief investment strategist at Loews, said in a Barron's interview that he liked the stock.

This thing has been quietly tucked away in the back of my watch list since May of 2011 when it gapped down hard. I'm not usually a value investor, but Staples looks compelling now. When a stock is at historical lows like Staples is now, it's usually because something has gone wrong with the...

I've had to show two forms of ID for every job I've gotten over the last 20 years here in California, usually a driver's license and social security card. I used my passport once.

I'm skipping the gym today and I don't need you guys giving me any crap about it. There's a heat wave going on for chrissakes and I need to conserve energy. I'll be back in the gym after the heat wave breaks, so just get off my back already.

I notice myself beggining to scowl at the young hipsters taking over my favorite taverns. Hopefully I'm not turning into a grumpy old man who wants to move to Cherry Hill SD and sit on the porch chewing tobacco.

An unincorporated small town. I just don't see the appeal of places like that. I need the bustle of a 24/7 metropolitan area.

My first note on this one is from the week ending July 27. The market had been moving up, but OTEX made a new 52 week low. Over the next couple of weeks it moved slightly up and then had a huge up day after reporting earnings. That huge spike up looked like a great entry point for a short, and I...

And you think this is a bad thing? Well, I guess I would like ~one~ bill to be introduced and passed - a law that says for every bill a legislator introduces he has 5000 of his votes thrown out in the next election.

Britain has extended invitations to the French millionaires who are going to get soaked to move to Britain.

What an absolute hell hole that place is. Whenever southern California is in a heat wave, the news stations drive out there to take shots of the outdoor thermometers. They are always well over 100 degress. Years ago one of the reporters went around asking people why they chose to live in El...

A couple of weeks ago I overheard "Barney Frank" on the phone in a heated discussion with his bank's customer service line. They were late with his direct deposit and it caused his rent check to bounce. He was reminding them that his direct deposit was always $571 every two weeks and that it had...

Sitting out in the courtyard on a nice Sunday night. It was extremely hot today and the building is still to hot to be inside. There is a huge block party going, (City Fest here in San Diego), so I can hear the thump thump of the music. My neighbors have their windows open and their TVs on loud...
