MIKE PIAZZA IS A COWARD

The Japanese economic minister all but said the government is manipulating stocks and would like to see the NIKKEI at 13,000 within a few weeks. Why, that’s only a 17% lift from here, in the world’s 3rd largest economy.

He said “It will be important to show our mettle and see the Nikkei reach the 13,000 mark by the end of the fiscal year (March 31).” Following a few lines of cocaine, he continued by saying “We want to continue taking (new) steps to help stock prices rise.”

What the hell is going on here? Have people lost their minds, all at once?

I think it’s fair to say Japanese stocks have a strong bid underneath them. However, I am also afraid that this trade is becoming a bit too vogue at the moment. Let it cool down, then revisit it with the fortitude of a Pope inside of an African church.

The market’s look good this morning, as they have for every morning this year. I assure you tougher sledding awaits us AFTER 4/15. Stock up on your wins now, for when the spring arrives, you’re all gonna die.

    Piazza? Because he won’t “comes out of the closet” or that he was a ‘roid user.
    And speaking of the Pope- why don’t you submit your application.
    Picture it now- you in the Flymobile (f/k/a Popemobile) passing out candied corn, chips cooked in olived oil, and popped corn to the masses.
    Not sure if a requirement would be a belief in God, but they may not ask at the interview.

      I see no reason why any Pope should believe in God. It’s all about the management of the Vatican’s capital and I could do a great job handling God’s money.

      This weekend I decided to alter adjectives into past tense verbs in conversation with my wife.

      I was shocked when she found little humour in my description of the meated balls I prepared for dinner.

        meated balls just doesn’t work well.

        Try something like riced pudding and ask her whether it is correct to say “frenched fries or french fries” and why?

          It’s true, though I did ask if she would prefer a hammed sandwich instead (with similar results).
