    ruining threads

    "Jokes is a useless thread"....ok, maybe true. But what harm does it do? In what way does it detract from anything? Some posters like Optional777 are really funny consistently. He is a great asset to ET. Some posters are very serious and rarely show any humor, and they too are an asset to ET...

    ruining threads

    I agree. Most of the trading threads tend to stay more focused. Most but not all. But when a thread gets any real attention....meaning it goes on for a while, no matter what the content, it will usually get off track. (See "superstition, luck and Voodo" for an example that comes to mind...had a...

    Not sure what you mean by this....do you mean about making posts regarding trading?

    ruining threads

    I felt it would be appropriate to make a comment about thread content. As anyone who is interested can easily see (and many already have) it only takes one person to steer any thread violently off course. We have seen threads that started with subject "A" suddenly veer off course and...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Yeah Maxie girl, you are right. I did not mean to imply that the 6 or 7 hours was relevant to the time that the market closed in Monaco. Just that there is more than one time zone....you seem to think that there is only one (except when you post your poison at 4 am, and say you are NOT in the...

    Don't you just love the French?

    :) You know, I had one rule in my trading room. It came about after I got kinda sick of hearing all the cursing. I am certainly not a prude, but it got annoying hearing "fucking this, fucking that" all day long. Every fill, every loss of an fraction of a point. Every tick against someone's...

    Don't you just love the French?

    I guess Max's lack of shame is my fault. Well that would exactly figure. For a guy who "doesn't" follow me around, he did a good job of coming into THIS THREAD out of nowhere and interrupting a debate that had zero correlation to any of his "challenges" about my "alleged life". Interesting...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Oh, let's see. I said I did not know. You come along and explain what the reason was. But then, you are caught in an obvious contradiction, so you say it was an intentional lie. I have a double standard????? And now you imply that "I" needed a visa for some reason different from your...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Sorry to disappoint you Maxie... guess we all have different definitions of "shortly". I also worked for Merrill Lynch "shortly" also, though by your standards, 2 years would greatly exceed 25% of your lifetime in developmental terms, so then it would not qualify as "shortly" to you. Again, I...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Yeah, that must be it:confused: The wife that was with me on that particular trip died in 1995. The present wife is in Israel right now. But to keep them both close to my heart I keep both their old passports with me just in case I need to show some maniac a visa from 1989. Chances...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Correct. I don't. I didn't need one when I went to Chamonix in 1978, so perhaps you can enlighten me. By all means, I am willing to learn from a sage like you. I admit I have no idea why I needed a visa. But need it I did. C'est la vie. So? Will you tell me why I needed a visa? Or what planet...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Hey man, if I understood the French, then I could probably understand you. But I don't. And I don't. I will leave that to others smarter and more insightful than myself. Politicians to the first and psychiatrists to the second. Au Revoir, mon ami. :)rs sept PS: where do you live? At...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Guess I am just a hell of a counterfeiter. Do your super sleuthing and tell me if you needed a visa to enter France in 1989. They changed the rules on people, and guess what...they didn't let people out of the Nice airport who did not realize the rules had changed. There were plenty. But of...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Max, your super sleuth files must be getting pretty heavy by now. But my secret file on Max remains pitifully empty. Not playing fair are you? I guess you never played well with others. I bet your mother must have gotten pretty sick of you clinging to her skirt. But each to their own. Who am...

    Don't you just love the French?

    Tell me where you live, and I will tell you where I got the visa. Matter of fact, I have it right here, dated and all. I will scan it for you. Then you and the whole world can see it clear as day. Won't take but a few moments. Just tell me where you live.

    Don't you just love the French?

    OK Max, I just took a picture of some cute kid on the beach. Then, lo and behold, my wife just happens to run into the same kid in Menton a few days later. It was an amazing coincidence. All these years later and I still can't get over it! Uhhh...let's see. An explanation is an "out" ...what...

    Hey, you would think a rabid pitbull would be happy to have 3,200+ bones to sink it's slimy teeth into. Trapped? Unprovable? Mythical? Which consulate? Hey Max, how about one single answer from you????????? Where do you live???? And you want "proof"....well go chase down the sources...
