BEHOLD: The March Madness Contest

As always, RC is hosting the annual March Madness contest. This year’s winner wins $1,000 from the hand of Le Fly. If I were you, I’d submit my pick now since a pick cannot be duplicated and there is bound to be 100’s of contestants. Naturally, I will most likely win said contest, rendering your efforts pointless and worthless. Nevertheless, it’s worth a shot.

NOTE: contest available to PPT members only.

    “[R]endering your efforts pointless and worthless.” If Border’s wasn’t going under, I’d recommend some of your content be published for the masses to walk by.

    For me, give me any short in Materials for my pick……trivia…Just messing around with the Shanghai Comp Fibo Levels of 2004 low and 2007 High… 38.2% is 2880.98 and 23.60% is 2167.04, fwiw…It closed at 2827.77 on Friday, and is retesting 55MA on multiyear chart as resistance. China doesn’t seem to be sharing the same bullish run up that we have had…It tested its 50% retrace in July 2009 and failed at that level and has been under that ever since

    OK, I am still unemployed so I am going to try and get a new career. I want to be a stand up comedian and would like to try a few out on the iBC crowd. Feel free to yell lekhaim or throw empty Manischewitz bottles at me, just as if you were in an audience. So, here it is:
    Two Minutes of Comedy With Steve.
    Rumor has it that Mark Sanchez is dating a 17 year old. There used to be a player named Kenny “The Snake” Stabler. Sanchez just wants to be called Prom King.
    The Jets had a player named Broadway Joe Namath. Sanchez will be called Mall Food Court Sanchez..
    When Sanchez is “face masked” he will probably turn to the ref and say “OMG Did you like see that?”
    Dion Sanders used to be called “Primetime”. Sanchez will be called “Past Curfew”.
    And finally- My Neighbor (Fly) and his wife (Mrs. Fly) have spent so much money at Whole Foods that all Fridays will be called “Flydays” and all members of the PPT will get a 5% discount at their local store if they spend over $1,000.00 that day.

        He doesn’t have a day job… Remember, Steve has been unemployed for like two years now.

        Stick with it Steve, sounds like you’re on to something. Maybe you could get your own HBO special, sponsored by iBC.

          Thanks for the feedback. Going to try and find the Comedy Club where Jefferson Krull does his thing and if that doesn’t work I may ask Fly if he has an opening. I can get his coffee, hot pizza slices, and chicken soup with matzo balls for when he is under the weather. However, I will miss the Oprah and The View shows. I will let Steve, Jr. watch over my web site, makinggeltwith steve.com.

    Pity, I could always use the extra bill money, instead of working 80 hour weeks.

      Preparation for Shayol Ghul is so taxing! Rest assured that we all appreciate it.

    You started it…

    After a young couple gets married they hop in their horse drawn carriage and head for the coast on a honeymoon. One of the horses suddenly stumbles and falls, entangling itself in the lines. The groom caringly disentagles it, helps right it, and on they go. The same thing happened again with the same horse a few miles down the road. Again the groom took time setting things all aright. When it happened a third time, he got our, pulled a pistol out of his trousers, shot the horse, cut it off the lines and got back into the carriage.

    His new bride, a devout animal lover, aggressively ragged on him all she could, spazing, crying, and making her beflusterment well heard by her new groom. He sat through it patiently, and when she was good and done, he calmly looked her in the eye and said, “That’s once.”

    Heard that from a pulpit this morning and thought I would pass it along.

    Good night.
