Put that Hot Dog Down

While I do not agree with the egregious foreign policy decisions our politicians have made for this country over the past 40 years, I am thoroughly grateful for the servicemen who served this country. It’s important that we remember and respect the fallen men who died fighting for the benefit of the rest of us, sitting idly in air conditioned offices, thinking we’re all tough because we bulk up at the gym.

Speaking of servicemen (82nd airborne, Iraq war): former blogger and friend of the site, Rhino, is working on a new project. You should give it a look and mark his progress (it’s still under development).

Have fun eating hot dogs and drinking out from budweiser cans. I’ll be enjoying my birthday, drinking a nice Bordeaux, courtesy of Ragin Cajun.

    Total OT SirFly, but was just watching an episode of 30 Rock and could have sworn I heard “no homo” and “noice” in an exchange. You a screen writer? (Episode 143)

    Right before graduating from th iBC Bloggers Academy, Rhino penned “The Invasion” series. It was epic, and incredibly insightful. The entire thing is here, but you need to read from the bottom-up. http://ibankcoin.com/rhino/category/the-invasion/

    Why let honesty get in the way of a good story?

      We have a few yards FULL of new vehicles as well.
      The explanation?
      Oil tankers have replaced car carriers on the tracks needed and Auto carriers simply can not keep up

    Bruce, you’re still bearish? My only short position is yelp at $60.90. It’s up over 12% in the last 5 days. You think I can get a decent pullback?

    No no not bearish. I meant I have a few I want to pick up Tuesday but if there is a big gap up I might have to wait potentially. But I’ve got 5 or 6 I’m looking at, I doubt all will be up 3-4% at open.

    Should I cover my yelp position? I’m looking for a pullback to low-mid 50’s

      Dude, now is not the time to be shorting stocks. This counter-trend rally is going to rip some faces off next week. At least wait for the Russell to get back to 1160ish before you play for a pullback. Even then, it shouldn’t be prolonged pullback. In other words, stocks are in for a huge summer rally.

    What’s a tragedy is that Obummer will make every death and injury MEANINGLESS when he is done turning this country inside out and into a third world country. …………………..

    Happy Birthday man!!

    TBH I am staying away from something like YELP. It COULD pull back around $64, or just shoot right to $68 and then test $64… just too wild for me to guess either way.
