    Appropriately, this summer is the 50th Anniversary of the Stephen Foster Musical. Couldn’t decide which version of “Hard Times Come Again No More” to post, but I could not find the James Taylor version which is as close to perfect as you could wish for.

    You’ll have to do w/Bob, I guess:

    Let us pause in life’s pleasures and count its many tears
    While we all sup sorrow with the poor.
    There’s a song that will linger forever in our ears,
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.
    ‘Tis the song, the sigh of the weary.
    Hard times, hard times, come again no more.
    Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door.
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.

    While we seek mirth and beauty and music light and gay.
    There are frail forms fainting at the door.
    Though their voices are silent, their pleading looks will say.
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.
    ‘Tis the song, the sigh of the weary.
    Hard times, hard times, come again no more.
    Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door.
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.

    There’s pale drooping maiden who foils her life away
    With a worn out heart, whose better days are o’er.
    Though her voice it would be merry, ’tis sighing all the day,
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.
    ‘Tis the song, the sigh of the weary.
    Hard times, hard times, come again no more.
    Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door.
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.

    ‘Tis the song, the sigh of the weary.
    Hard times, hard times, come again no more.
    Many days you have lingered all around my cabin door.
    Oh, hard times, come again no more.

    It’s very joozy. Thanks goodness I didn’t sell my FXP calls today.

    Tomorrow, though, very likely.

    Okay, this version is a bit more historically educational (and it’s a nice “a cappella”). Be sure to forward it to your favorite Chinese Olympian:

    FXP is “The Fly’s” largest position.

    Another win.

    Apparently you missed the part where the bearded rat says ‘OUtlook Improved. Risk of substantial downturn diminished.’ Fuck fxp. I just want to see crm wallow in pool of blood and the carry trade destroyed in a brutal fashion. Whoever is bidding the dollar/jap higher should commit seppuku now.

    ditto euro/jap
