    U.S. military might let its IT warriors skip boot camp

    Basic Training is not that tough. It's like summer camp or pre-training for high school sports before the season begins. All you do is calisthenics and light exercise in the mornings and then spend the rest of the day learning about the history of the Army, your rights as a soldier, first aid...

    Salmon: Wild Caught vs. Farm Raised. Which is best?

    Wild Salmon, especially Atlantic Salmon; have seen their numbers greatly reduced in the last decade. It's better to buy farm raised salmon to give the wild ones a chance to recover. I think the reason you prefer farm raised over wild salmon is because farm raised salmon has more fat than the...

    SNAP

    Is there a tool available that allows the IT industry to measure how many people that access their site are using popup blockers and AD blockers? Because I think a large percentage of advertising revenue is lost or poorly spent because merchants are told their ads will be seen on X webpages...

    Buying nice clothes is smart-- says study

    I haven't worn a watch in 10 years. The battery went out on my SEIKO, I procrastinated replacing it and then I realized I was more comfortable without it. I have a clock in the car, clocks on my Iphone, clocks on my laptop, TV and on the wall. I don't need a watch. I don't think most people...

    Former celebrity, Tila Tequila, is God on earth!

    7:30 I want WW3 to happen, so it will. I made Trump become president so I am responsible for that. North Korea has my blessings because they are not involved with the Zionist parasites. If they want to nuke the U.S. my area of the country will be safe. I am your mother now, so if you have...

    Buying nice clothes is smart-- says study

    That big, polo horse that Ralph Lauren uses on some of their clothes gets on my nerves. I like the clothes, they are colorful; but I have never bought anything with the big flashy horse and never will.

    Buying nice clothes is smart-- says study

    Warren Buffet does not live like a blue collar guy. It is just that he has done an excellent job portraying the image. He travels to Davos and Bilderberger on private jets and socializes with the richest, most famous people on Earth. He plays Bridge with Bill Gates. I guess he makes...

    I didn't want to create the longest, rambling, whining post so I decided to break it into 2 rambling posts. And help Baron increase his post count. ....:) I know presidents don't write their own speeches, not all of it. But read what he wrote last year that was posted here. Now......compare...

    FB

    I don't have a lot of confidence in FB or Zuckerberg. Today, he said he was going to hire 4000 people to supervise the FB videos. Somehow, I think 4000 is a random number he pulled out of his butt. How come he didn't stiffen his backbone and just say that they offer a service for FREE and...

    Pros and Cons of Day Trading

    90 percent of traders lose 90 percent of their initial capital within 90 days. 80 percent of traders lose all their money, 10 percent break even and 10 percent make the money that the 80 percent lose. Don't burn your bridges, so if it doesn't work out you can still return to your old job.

    Is Amazon a Fad?

    They don't sell books at a profit ? Or do they sell them profitably and lose money on the shipping? I gotta admit I buy 90 percent of my books from them. They are the cheapest around.

    Missiles Flying!

    The biggest factor in the conflict would be intervention from Russia or China. NK is only tough on paper. But deploying their weapons in combat is a lot different than doing it in a training environment. NK has not been at war since 1953. The U.S has been in a constant state of war since 7...

    Is Amazon a Fad?

    Amazon is a good disruptor. Vanguard changed things in the brokerage industry but I would not call them a disruptor. I consider disruptors to be something that changes the way we live.....like the internet, amazon, electric cars (everyone talked about electric cars but Tesla made the concept...

    Missiles Flying!

    The Korean War from 1950-1953? We had it won for a while. The Communists had been completely routed from the peninsula and many of them fled to China. MacArthur wanted to pursue them into China......that probably would not have been a good idea. Then, those rascally commies from Mao Tse...

    Missiles Flying!

    That is a good question....but it wouldn't be a smart thing for them to do. Because the results would be the same. Massive retaliation on Kim Jung Un's house and nuclear missile site. If someone robs a 7-11 with a fake gun or a banana, it's still armed robbery and it's still 10 years in...

    Is Amazon a Fad?

    What do you do then? Do you invest specifically in options and futures? Do you think that you think you can get better returns with them as opposed to investing larger sums of money in stocks? --------- Hey OP.........AMZN was up $9 for the day and it is up $40 ($959) in after hours trading...

    Is Amazon a Fad?

    1. No it can't. Sears was the number one retailer in the U.S. for 75? years. They put the mom and pop corner stores out of business 100 years ago. Sears invented the mail order catalog and mail order business. But then they failed to adapt to changes and they did not evolve into online...
