Trades: Short LULU, YGE, IRBT . A Lesson On Wedding Receptions.

New shorts today

IRBT @ 16.73

LULU @ 29.72

YGE @ 13.31

… I especially like shorting IRBT here.  Not to sure about that YGE play, but oh well.  I expect this basket of trades to do very well.

In the meantime, congrats to the Saints!  My friend is a hardcore Vikings fan and he is the biggest trash talking fool out there, so I was quite delighted to kick him while he was down.  I’m not such a nice guy after all. 

Ten things I learned from the wedding…

1)  Bridesmaids must be kept happy at all times

2)  Hide your share of the cake as soon as you can

3)  Order wine, it will take care of the stress

4)  When someone compliments you, compliment them back.  Especially for women.  Wow, this is a must.  You will pay if you don’t notice nor acknowledge how nice their dress is.

5)  My bridesmaid partner was hot! 

6)  The camera man is gay

7)  Order your Tux on the internet!  (hehe, I never thought that would be such a good move.)

8)  Try your shoes on at Nordstrom, then order those on the internet too (haha… sorry, I am not going to pay full price for patent shoes that I will wear 3 times in my life.  Saved at least $100 bucks on mine  😉

9)  If you’re on the party, once you’re done eating, visit five tables at a time to say hi.  But when you do so, end your conversation with “Do you know where the…  I need to do something real quick.”  that way you can politely end your conversation without having to go over time.

10)  Make your speech shorter so you can make more room for dancing.  No one remembers speeches, everyone remembers how cool the father of the bride was getting down on the dance floor like a Viagra commercial.

Congrats to the lovers!   😉

    gio,

    observations to u’r ‘top 10’

    1) yes using words like beautiful always work
    2) cake… can always buy one elsewhere that is fresh from a designer bakery
    3) wine is not good for all things for weddings… that’s what i hear… havent experienced it
    4) complements… can always find something nice to say if it’s not the dress… hair…
    5)”my bridesmaid partner was hot…” funny you said that… because my wife said you both make a nice couple. and i must say i agree – just an observation, not a suggestion. but in your case it would be convenient no?
    6) can’t think of anything there – as long as pictures come out.
    7) tux… i refuse to buy…
    8) Regarding shoes… i have found real made in Italy patent shoes at Sears of all places.
    9) If you have more than 20 tables saying hi to more almost impossible…
    10) they remember the funny stuff. people still tell me they remember stuff. i guess it depends if it affects them. it’s one of those moments you can say anything tho if u’r the man of the day
    -i totally missed out on the dancing part… wife and i had some miscommunication there… that was a bummer right there…

    Nice updates to this site. Haven’t visited for awhile… Still waiting for the next crash…
