Correction, never brought up your name!!!!

A:If you mean ONLY one letter, than extremely low. B: Almost a certainty C: Almost as unlikely as hitting the lottery. And getting stuck by lightening on the same day. D: A lot (just guesses off the top of my head...way too late to do the math...besides, you talked me out of it with .1%...

How convenient for you that your post was deleted. Talk about "digression". Max, how about giving an opinion on the "repercussions of an attack on Iraq"? Or are the only attacks you are interested in the attacks on me? Please don't answer. (somehow I don't think you will grant me my...

I have actually known more than one pretty hot naturally born female with noticable adam's apples. (No nuts). So the adam's apple is not a dead giveaway. But in the pictures in that "poll" there were no shots that showed the front of the neck. So no help there. BTW, third from the top on the...

Makes sense to me! Especially since the problem was stated as it was. If the problem was worded differently, such as PRIOR to any event, then yes, I could see how the 66% answer would make sense. But the wording seemed to clearly indicate that one event had already occurred. Which would change...

Babak, As you, and anyone can plainly see, I responded to a post by Wild about different leaders in different countries. Then I got my usual "attack" from you know who. So, I foolishly responded. Sometimes it is too much fun to ignore something. I see that you (rightly) have since deleted...

Regarding my previous post......since trading hasn't been treating me exceptionally well for the past few months (round it off to a year), and careful further consideration, I hereby make it official. I will throw my hat into the ring! Now I fully expect all of you to back me. The platform I...

Bung, My Man; Quite a bold statement considering Michael Jackson is living on the very same planet at the very same time:confused: :confused: Peace, :)rs7

Gordon, suggested reading...Arthur C. Clark, "2001, a Space Odyssey" (forget the movie...the movie CANNOT make sense without having read the book). Or maybe it is both ways. Maybe it is god's plan to have such immense distances between life forms that each thinks it is unique in the...

There are 2 cards that have a red side. What am I missing? 50% isn't right? Is it too obvious? Of course to me the interesting thing is not what the answer is, but that 75% of the answers given so far have to be wrong. Peace, :)rs7

Some leaders work their way into the system. Some buy their way in. Some are born into it. Some are both born into it and buy into it as well (a little insurance never hurts). The fact that Dubya is a result of the last scenario is not enough to dismiss him as an unqualified leader. He is...

I think if you want to see what you are getting into, it is a good idea to have the car checked out like Nitro says. But even if all is ok, I would do this for a reality check: Call a BMW dealership, and also an independent brake shop. Find out what a brake job costs on this car. Compare...

Longest "joke" I ever actually finished reading. Also, BY FAR the longest "joke" I ever forwarded to people I didn't hate:) Great!!! Peace, :)Rs7

Looked at my statement. There is "rent" (base payment) which I believe IS the depreciation, and then there is sales tax. As far as I understand it, the "rent" is the total of "depreciation" plus "interest" (called "money factor in a lease), and the taxes are on a seperate line. Obviously the...

I know this is correct. What I was asking was if the principal of leasing was accurate as I understand it. Obviously I wouldn't expect my example to work in real life. I am just trying to get a grip on how a lease compares to a purchase. Seems like a big factor is how long you intend to keep a...

I am not sure I understand this logic. Not arguing, just trying to get a grip on the situation. Here is how I understand the lease. I could be wrong, so if anyone really knows...... Example: 3 year lease on 30k car. As I understand it, the leaser is actually paying for whatever the...

Ditto.....just what I could use. Gonna give it a try! rs7

Enough with Bush and Clinton...here are some Nixon jokes: Q. What has two wings and a crooked dick? A. Air Force One. Spiro Agnew is an anagram of 'Grow A Penis' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Nixon's last words: "I am not a...

No doubt that it is possible to middle with limit orders. The real pain of decimalization as far as I am concerned is with market orders. It is a true license to steal for the specialists. Try placing a market order in a higher priced stock. Watch the spread change from a penny to a dollar...

Yup, just did it for the second time recently. (I think it is now required every 2 years or so. You get a pretty good lead time in notification of a "window" in which to comply). Hardest part is remembering to bring a picture ID:) I got there, and the gal noticed my license had expired...
