Pleasantries on this Fine Sunday Night

I’m not in a very good mood today. I haven’t been my jolly self for more than a week. I find myself brooding amidst the house for no reason. I am sure it’s related to cabin fever, the in-laws staying over, and a variety of work related issues. One thing is for certain, I am never content.

Speaking of which, don’t forget to make my god damned logo. I will pay you for your stupid time and make sure to give your idiot web design firm its proper publicity.

Futures are flat, so I have nothing to say to you–nothing at all. Would you like me to concoct some scenario for you? I will not.

Tomorrow I am sanctioned to participate in redundant crap, away from work. I will get to look at my 50% cash position for half a day, then I’ll be off into the god damned automobile to shuffle around. After that, I’ve decided to begin taking old school steroids, hit the gym, and punch a bag about a million times until my hands bleed and my knuckles break.

When I was a teenager, my best friend and I used to kick each other in the shins as hard as we could, with boots on, just because we were stupid and drunk. Sometimes we’d elevate it to outright punching of the face and chest, leading to black eyes and bloody noses, all the while laughing like two maniac leprechauns. Ah, the good ole’ days.

 

Okay, this is all I have for you tonight. I am looking at mega-cap stocks that are down more than 10%, YTD.

ABX-48%

NEM -33%

TCK -31%

VALE -29%

LFC -26%

ISRG -22%

IBN -20%

CAJ -19%

BBD -19%

EC -18%

TI -17%

BRCM -17%

PTR -16%

AAPL -15%

CEO -15%

TTM -13%

BSMX -13%

AGU -10%

      Taking creatine and beta alanine again.

      In loading phase, so it’s 15-25g per day.

        That’s awesome. That is a great stack. Some of my best workouts occurred during that phase. I really like how you are getting back to your workout roots. That makes me happy.

          I obsess over one thing to the next. Building muscle is no different from anything else that takes time and effort. The difference with working out is the irrefutable science behind results.

            Your perspective is quite different from the hucksters and magicians I encounter on the subject in my 10+ years in the fitness industry. They are always selling some magic secret, some weird tip or some way to twist your thumb for 400% more muscle gains.

            Damn it.. hard work, time… consistency you say?

            Well, you are the expert on this subject, not me. All I know is, lifting heavy weights, with good form, and high protein diet is bound to lead to some results.

            What brand of Beta-Alanine/Creatine did you end up getting?

            Heavy weights, plus high volume. The volume is key.

            Glad to hear you’re hitting the gym, Dr. Fly. I hope you will have squats in your routine. Squats are my favorite exercise, as they benefit you no matter how much you can lift, since they hit your biggest muscles and a lot of supporting muscles (core, back, etc.).

        Nice. I have same regimen. I also take pure l-glutamine after the workout. Awesome for post workout muscle recovery, even good for building some extra immunity and healthy for tummy.

    New ibankcoin logo drawing a wishing well with water bucket labeled in block letters, “KoolAid”, and the wooden base labeled, “Hopium springs eternal”. Just finished constructing our wishing well last night.

    Fly,
    You really do sound like you need a vacation. Plus you’re way ahead this year and Aug. sucks. Think about it!

    NEM and VALE are winners. Bought both at current prices. No fucking clue if they are good but took a shot and if the printed money bull rages on? They should be good. Olympics in the last twenty years or so have always ripped the host countries indexes. Brazil has it coming up. Obviously that is a weak reason to buy but weak reasons have worked for a while.

    The Fly,

    Here is my idea for a new logo. Your current logo has a pyramid, so you can only improve on a pyramid with a huge all seeing tower.

    Obviously some one with artistic talent would have to make it look professional.
