    Joe Gibbs is God! Brunell is the best Redskin qb to vie for a championship since Joe Theismann.

    Government Wants To Regulate Political Blogs

    Conservative bloggers are far more lethal than the ball- less ones. Just look at what Swift Votes did for the Bush campaign.

    Start With a Small Stake

    I used to go to this investor's club and it was sickening how much these retired and semi- retired people were losing trying to actively trade the market. One lady was a retired cpa with a successful practice and bragged about how she was down like 30% in two weeks and $100k on PCNTF. A few...

    the Mob on Wall Street - CNBC Story

    Born to Steal was a fantastic book. I had a hard time putting it down and basically read it one night. I'm surprised that there was no mention of Systems of Excellence (SEXI.OB):)

    Interactive Brokers to make significant investment in OneChicago

    Why not just open up the levees on the next bull market and issue ssf's on the highly speculative mid cap issues? Liquidity would ensue. If the ssf's were denominated in larger sizes like 10k, they might gain traction for institutions that hedge big caps. Perhaps? I mean they would be...

    Single Stock Futures

    Actually, I guess those were WMI contracts. I don't understand why institutions would be interested in these products even if they issued contracts that controlled 1k or 10k shares. The spreads can be killers vs. the spreads of stocks and institutions can get lots of leverage anyways.

    Single Stock Futures

    I ventured into them around the time of Hurricane Katrina. I always thought they were a wonderful idea on paper. One Friday, I'm trying to get out of my long AW contracts and the bids just totally disappear. There are none. I can't get out at any price. It sure would be nice to have a...

    Why couldn't this happen to me?

    what about in adulthood and consider that women mature faster than men? Why do guys have to step on eggshells while women and homosexuals can be flamboyant and even aggressive to people that are clearly not interested?

    Wasn't the justification that the PDT rule would reduce volatility?

    Whiny children, claims a new study, tend to grow up rigid and traditional.

    self- righteous people tend to be on both extremes. That kid in the back that stuck crayons up his nose and ate paint chips could grow into a hyper ET poster and a knee jerk left winger.

    Portrait of a Psycho

    Bush is a profligate dem and a social conservative. the worst of both worlds but still less annoying than Gore, Kerry, etc.

    Inventive Recipes

    I should have time to cook the calamari cheese sticks on Thursday. I will let people know the results. I need to consult with a coworker on the cooking strategy. The marinara will have to be supermarket purchased although I intend to buy high quality cheese. The cheese does not have to be...

    Inventive Recipes

    Calamari cheese sticks. My idea is to hollow the body of the squid and stuff it with mozzarella, seal it with a toothpick, bread and fry in the traditional manner. It would be served with marinara sauce. I will try this out in as soon as I can get to the bait store.

    Inventive Recipes

    I have already shared my perfect lobster/ clam pizza idea on a different thread. I would like to start a thread on inventive recipes. I do not enjoy cooking at all, but may have to actualize some of my crazy recipe ideas. Besides, cooking and chef shows are all the rage now. I'm sure there...

    Weed Bust

    There are synthetic variants of all major recreational drugs. Most prescribed pain relievers are opioids. There is synthetic marijuana and cocaine that is produced by big pharma. I'm sure this is all old hat to you. Why are the synthesized versions not more popular? After all, synthetic...

    Weed Bust

    It happened all the time at raves in the 90's and probably even today. Ravers use to mix all kinds of designer drugs at the same time and "candy flip." I went to a rave in Montreal in 1995 where they were handing out some kind of brown chocolate designer hallucinogen. They were free for...

    Weed Bust

    doh! and I thought I was the only lunatic with this idea. Really, with modern technology and the profit incentive it seems like this should already be happening. Opium/heroin also.
