In awe. Shellshocked. Flabbergasted. Stunned. Agog. Appalled. Blown the fuck away.
Just came back from our eldest kid’s first hockey practice and team parents’ meeting. And running through all of the above mentioned emotions…
A former coach of our kid, Jayden, once told us that he probably wouldn’t get a fair shake in evaluations until the PeeWee level because of his size and the fact he was a defenseman…
Never in a million years did I ever expect he would move UP from playing not bad, certainly not his best, evaluation scrimmages, to play in the group with kids that got cut from the Rep team and played tier 2 last year…
The kids at this level are bigger, faster, meaner, much more aggressive, and have no qualms about bashing their buddy’s head into the boards… There was even a kid on this team that got a concussion in his first evaluation game. Nice. Big difference from where our kid played last year…
The parents are not as loud as them vagabonds in the Novice and Atom levels but much more fucking cliquier…
While we are elated our kid placed on the highest tiered team he has ever landed in all the yers he has played on in his first year of Pee Wee, we’re not so pleased we also landed on the “money is no object when it comes to MY kid’s hockey” team…
So with the extra ice time the coach ALREADY BOOKED FOR THE FUCKING YEAR, Jayden will be on the ice 6-7 times per week MINIMUM… And the team, most of whom played together for the last 5 years (the clique), want to do 4 tournaments with a couple out of town tourneys this season; not necessarily in Phoenix AGAIN, but at least one tourney where the kids get to stay in a hotel… And the team coaches has suggested they want to hire a fitness trainer/ nutrition consultant to aid in the kids’ diet and training regimen… Operating budget goal for this season: $20,000.
Fuck me running sideways on a treadmill with a TV up my ass, I haven’t even been to Phoenix yet! We can’t find ANY teams to play hockey against in Western Canada?? You know, I think it’s wonderful alot of you fuckers can go full retard to the upside in spoiling your ONLY child, but there are some of us that have more than one child and they are in hockey as well. In fact, my other son’s Atom team’s total budget for the season is $3600.00 with an initial cash call of $1500.00; and that’ll include some additional ice times, at least one tournament, and a year end party for the team.
OK, the money is one thing. Quit being such a fucking piker, Heisenberg. It’s for your kid for fuck’s sake! You got the cash. Fine. At a higher level of hockey, they need the ice time to groom them to get better and faster; I get that.
But for the love of straight men on Pinterest looking at home furnishings, where the fuck do you dicksuckers FIND THE TIME???
Doesn’t anyone have a fucking real job?? EVERYONE is self-employed and makes their OWN hours?? I guess all this is also a “write-off” too; which means pretty much “free” in Alberta for some reason. So, WHEN the fuck do they fit in homework?? And supper for that matter???
Maybe it’s just me but I could swear these kids are ages 11-12, and still not vying for spots to replace locked-out NHLers..
Fuck hiring a nutritionist, I’ll vouch for a paid psychiatrist for all the psycho-hockey parents on the team…it’s gonna be a looong winter… I guess things could be worse.. I could be bitching about my kids getting pounded by guards at the Foxconn factory for rioting…
I see AAPL is punching me in the fucking face this morning over selling ONLY 5 million iPhone 5’s in 3 fucking days in the US alone and all the bullshit at Foxconn… Still hanging on long as fuck despite the Constanza-esque selloff.
Good Morning.

Perhaps it is time to cash out your AAPL profit?
I initiated my short AAPL this morning and is sitting pretty right now. Bought the Oct 685 put options.
Maybe, just maybe, I catch the top this time?
The Foxconn’s situation may be the straw that break the camel back…
Good luck.

5 million iPhones in 3 days is nothing to cash out on…. though I’ve gotten very good at timing my dip buys, I haven’t quite been able to devise a technical plan to take profits properly with AAPL yet… I always seem to leave money on the table– last profit taken was at $645 from buying in at $570 and it went parabolic the second I let those 200 shares go..fuck! My target is $723 giving a PE of 17 to take more profits on from a buy point of $555 (PE of 13).. patience is key…

@Zenhunter: If you bought $685 puts closer to $700 (so on Friday) using the highest OI on the weeklies, I would sell them when the price is near $680, that would be the way I would trade AAPL.. just still too much headline risk with the buyback, iPad Mini rumours, and iPhone 5 numbers right now long and short to put testicles in the gullotine.
Good Luck in all your trades!

Thanks for the tip. I’ll keep an eye on the price action.
