As you continue with your efforts, it is quite possible that your definition of what is aesthetically pleasing may change along the way... mine did. "Filling out the shirt" is only one way of looking good. :) Nice thread, guys. Lots of good info here.

Why the US is in deep trouble? A DC airport ticket agent offers some examples of why. 1. I had a New Hampshire Congresswoman (Carol Shea-Porter) ask for an aisle seat so that her hair wouldn't get messed up by being near the window. (On an airplane!) 2. I got a call from a Kansas...

3D does look like a good idea! :)

. Sources tell me that B.P. dropped a huge wedding ring over the well and it stopped putting out immediately. :p

LOL. I suppose he is doing that just to avoid having to pick the PURETICK crowd as his successors.:)

Agree with you. The revolution that created this country was based on the slogans - "No taxation without representation" and, "taxation without representation is tyranny." I think the current conditions call for a radical change of approach based upon the converse of the above slogans -...

As in the 1930's, a lot of 'Tent City' type slums are springing up everywhere. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnnOOo6tRs8 What is alarming is that the problem is not limited to California and other "Housing Bubble" areas. There seems to be a serious lack of opportunity all across the...

BuyHiSellLo, You might wanna try to Buy Lo and Sell High for a change. It will definitely make you less bitter. As for the comparison of nightlife, this clip says it all.:p http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW-YEb4IamI

. Mr. J. J. Evans. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J.J._Evans

I think he acted superbly in that "Bad Santa" movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPfG_ih_Qlo

I agree with you. I think the OP has a very strong case and would find the arbitration process a lot more sympathetic to his version of the story (especially in the U.K.). BTW, If this order was indeed a result of a double-click, shouldn't it too have been rejected instantaneously since...

Thats about the size of it - well said. Its a crying shame that he is allowed to continue fooling people with this sort of a con game. His investors, however, must share some of the blame for repeatedly falling for this ruse. They are supposed to be doing their own Due Diligence. I...

:)

You must be joking. Even after the passage of so many years, his victims/ investors from last time around are still waiting for a plausible explanation of his actions. In the meantime, I guess we will just have to make do with the excellent explanation posted here by Pabst...

Wasn't meant to be. An oversized 'Short Puts, Long Futures' position CANNOT simply be attributed to an 'error of market judgement'. Cheers.

LOL. Its pretty easy for someone with his mindset to hedge this sort of a position. He hedged himself perfectly by using OPM. If things go his way, he gets to make a ton of money for himself. If the outcome is not so rosy, he simply walks away from the mess to go play squash for another five...

If that is what he actually did, his investors should ask him to redeem himself through seppuku.:mad: I think that Money Managers should be made to invest a substantial portion of their personal net worth in the funds under their management - especially if they have a history of blowouts...

LOL, that sounds like a good idea for the government. They could DRAFT the retirees and send them to Iraq. That would also relieve the pressure on the Social Security Fund which is likely to go broke anyway in the not-too-distant future.:p
