RIMM is oversold, by the way.
According to recent ADP stats (we added 189,000 jobs), the job market is on-fucking-fire.
So, not only is the economy humming along, we get rate cuts to boot.
Sounds like a perfect recipe to break a few bear noses.
Which brings me to my next point: Why did Jeremy (iBankCoin’s webmaster) put up an incomplete page for Woodshedder? Is he (Jeremy) back on the crack pipe?
As you know, we are changing the themes of the fucking blogs. Orange was supposed to be the dominant color, yet Jeremy “pearl harbored” me and went with blue. Unacceptable.
We’re off to a bad start already.
Aside from that, life appears to be somewhat ok, with the futures pointing higher and Rick “the hillbilly” Santelli still without straight teeth.

What happened to the tabs on Shed’s site?…. and … why… has… the… site…. s..l..o..w…e…d…. down…. sooooooooooooooo

…… much?
What’s up with the orange, btw?
Remember when all the bears used to biatch about slow to no job growth in 2003 when this current bull cycle took off?
And then they got candled like a basket full of spherical turd flambeaus as the stock market proceeded to shoot back up?

It’s not ECON 101, but it’s probably Macro Econ 101 or 102….
Unemployment is a lagging indicator….
Jake:
The tabs are supposed to be there. However, Jeremy slapped up an incomplete page. Very, very egregious.
The site is still running fast. It must be your bullshit PC.
Is it slow loading pages or posting comments.
BOOM:
Because I like orange. It’s that simple.
Comments are slow to load this morning… never happened before.
Orange is my oldest son’s favorite color. I always thought it odd.
No?
___________
That said, I don’t mind the “Florida Gator” flavor of the site these days.
Comments are slow.
Jeremy is out to get me.
i can’t wait to drop Scrooge Mcduck style banks (full of coins) on the bears.
Comments are fine for me.
Orange is the new money.

Orange and Blue are good. It makes you a part of the Gator Nation.
Those colors are also Denver Broncos colors—yeah right, like it does them any good this year.
I miss the days of Tom Jackson…John Elway…T. Davis…Sharpe…mile high salute…at least they were exciting.
Although Cutler is a class act. He has a good rep in Nashville from his Vanderbilt days.
Denver’s a navy blue, isn’t it?
This is more Gator Blue.

Boom, good rep for the ladies?
VMI, LNN, the “milk the farmer” trade is working well again this morning.

Guess you all spoke too soon. Markets are breaking to the downside due to the disruption of the color scheme of this blog.

Fly — you still have money in that Church disco down Chelsea way?
The stock market is slowly killing me.
The only thing I have left is Christmas spirit and making fun of JJ for being short FSLR.

Seems like just yesterday that Orange County had it’s last muni meltdown….
Dino –
Christmas spirit is enough.
Jake,
Could I hire you to do the color scheme in my vacation cabin?
RIMM is acting like a turd & seems a better short for the short term
Dawg — I certainly hope you are not making any implications of fanciness here.
That said, I’ve always had an eye for color and an ear for accents.
SOLF still ripping.
Broker – you own a church disco? This one?

Barbara Boxer’s committee is clearing the energy bill. Be careful about the solar plays.
I have not pulled the trigger on this “rally” yet. The S&P and the Dow is closer to the low of the day than the high of the day. The russell is worse.
Not ready to insert my balls into the salad shooter we call a market.
Thank you oh AMerican Bull cousins… we’ve been banking coin all week over here, and after your efforts today, I’ll be watching my portfolio mushroom cloud come the morning. Time to pull out the radiation suits, we’re going nuclear!
Yeah, nothing like having one’s portfolio “mushroom cloud.”
We are taking out the high. Maybe I was a little “cranky” this morning.
gappa trappa…chasing the gap is a fools game…if you took inventory with the FLY lighten the heck up or a least hedge a little and tighten those stops…be fully prepared for a sell the news reaction…the game has not changed, not one little bit.
Jake – looks like it got repossessed? Subprime?

Ok, I’m out of SOLF. Not going to touch it until after energy vote.
He’s making his list,
He’s chekcing it twice,
Gonna find out whose naughty or nice:
Santa Claus is coming to town.
XFML is looking sporty.
Be careful when you play with orange, it’s fucking nitroglycerin. It’s really good when you want the viewer to focus and move their eyes to whatever something’s slathered in orange. I’d have more orange on the headers and less on the sides (“pages,categories,meta,etc”). You also might want to have one more color to use at selective places, it looks too much like some fucking football site with 2 colors. Also, the picture of woodshitter should be on the left — people like pretty pictchures and eyes start from the top left. Otherwise, the update layout looks better.
Back to VMI (my new favorite stock on the NYSE)… is that an inverse head and shoulders pattern?

I’ve been eyeing MDRX recently… it’s come down quite a bit for the ’07 highs…

Boom, yeah, Limelight has been opened and closed more times than a whooah’s bedroom door, but it was a “happenin’ place” when I was a kid doing the bridge and tunnel thing. Certainly lost it’s appeal by the time I actually moved into the Schitty.
But I digress, since I was really just trying to make a joke on Fly’s Limelight Networks pick from a ways back…
mdawsz,
Great minds…
Meanwhile, your screen name is a big lisp.

On our last rally, the S&P hit 1492.25. Lets see what happens here. The high today has been 1487.75.
DT, No. Remember your mind is a dinosaur and mine is highly evolved.
The healthcare industry has bought out Hillary. Look it up yourself.
The health care industry WANTS socialized health care??

And what happens when the nice guy can’t or does not (because he has some sizzling bacon on the side with which to contend) bring home the ‘dough’ from which to make biscuits, pay for the country ham to be cooked, and to fix the broken high heel? He gets plastered with steaming hot grits, that’s what. I hope you never get to experience an enraged southern belle dinging your dong.

Her plan will shove tens of billions in CI, AET, UNH (Buffett’s fav’rite), and the rest.
Ding dong, indeed.
Jake, Hillary 2007 is not Hillary 1993. Two very different animals.
It’s just a trader’s market.
Like this is the bottom?
Jobs growth? Fake numbers don’t = jobs growth.
And inflation is only growing 2.1%.
Everytime you start crowing its a top and every time you start bitching it’s a bottom. You should check your past posts — seriously – you’ve got a great entry signal there. So this must be another top. Take it while they’re drinking the Kool-Aid — and before anyone delves into the actual jobs report. I’m sure all those temp jobs at Abercrombie are what’s boosting the economy…
Hillary today is not Hillary yesterday or what Hillary will be tomorrow.
Besides, don’t you fuckers know political discussion is banned here? The Chad is going to get all sorts of fucking pissed over this.

Who’s “the Chad?”
Someone from North Africa?
So what’s the deal?
Short SPY at 149 and watch it fail to break out or buy at 149.50 on the Inverted Head & shoulder?
yuck
Fuck you Bison.
Why should we trust Warren Buffett?
Rev, you’re looking at an island reversal in the SPX.
Rev — kind of a weak looking right shoulder, dontcha think?
Got more gaps than a Fresno mall.
Sawzall… can you have a one day island reversal?
Jake, yes, it is until it isn’t.
So you’re saying Tuesday was an island, we’ve reversed and will trend higher?
Jake, my right shoulder’s always been weak – old pitching injury.
Jake,
Check the PG for my answer to your FLOW question.
Rev, stocks will never go down again.
Rev — you make the point… would you want to pitch nine innings again?

Just making sure I understand you, not pinning you to the wall.

Where is the volume in this rally? (trust eroding…)
I think someone hit RIMM with a shovel.
Thank you VMI! You fucks go buy some GS now!
more employment=less interest rate reductions=higher dollar=lower commodity prices=lower gold=lower crude prices
No?
Short gold?
more employment=happy workers=more attention to physical appearance=more dollars spent=more jewelry=higher gold demand=higher gold prices
So the arguement could be made both ways. Odd, no?
The time stamp on the comments seems to be off by 2 hours.
Then the web server must not be in your backyard.
Whoa!!! failure!

We’ve covered this earlier. Fly will be firing Jeremy for the time stamp error in addition to the color scheme mishap.
I, for one, get to drink to the Denver Broncos 2 hours earlier than East Coast drunks.
Woops, sorry – I haven’t been keeping up with the posts today.
I make appealance to tly to save LIMM.
Wit out me alound to schit on LIMM, it surery wirr blake $100.
The time stamp is part of the time machine. This is the way Fly knows what is going to happen two hours before it actually happens.
Alpha… Is it not showing your exact time (ie, 11:01 am)?
I don’t get your “two hour early” thing.
Jake will be drinking to the NY Giants, an inconsistent and puzzling assembly of players known for choking in the clutch.
At least the Broncos are consistent in their losing ways.
Did that sell off just occur because spx couldnt pass 1490?
If so, that’s “neat”
Rev — are you telling me that if I live in NY and my webserver is in Denver, I just gotta live with the wrong time?
Something tells me crack coders have a way of dealing with such issues.
(Unless Fly is no longer in New York??)
BTW — since when are the Dakotas on mountain time?
Jake,
As TC pointed out, it’s a time machine.
…thing.
Alpha… they managed to reverse choke last week, the bastids.
Now everyone thinks Eli is NOT a bust.
Fools.
This is surely more Jeremy-related shenanigans.
They need to trade Eli (and the whole defense) for Peyton.
Know what else is “neat?”
The 38.2% fibonacci retracement line (which is usually a strong one) is almost exactly at $100 even for RIMM.
Make or break for RIMM — it’s all about the Benjamin.
That sell off happened because one of the traders from GS spilled some coffee on the Tradebot that controls whether the market goes up or down.
Our defense is the only thing keeping us in games.
I’d make that trade for Brady, but no one else.
Fuck MBI… just took another 10 minutes from my life.
-DT
Western Dakotas on Mountain Time.
Think Devin Hester could play quarterback for the Giants.
VMI…one more punk pump here and sell it with both hands and buy it back lower.
DT- Life is better by getting a 9-5 job and dollar cost averaging into mutual funds for the next 25 years. Less headaches and IMO one will live longer.
Holy mack Dad, almost 100 posts on this thread without renewal.
Fly must be rethatching the Romanian villa’s roof today
I would give Hester a tryout, “No doubt” as Omar says.
One hunnit!!
This is funny. 20 minutes after Gap directed everyone to buy GS, it retraced 5 points down into the red.
Fly is at Dunkin’ Doughnuts trying out the new pumpkin latte. He is a fancy guy.
What’s up with Jacobs? He and his 265 lbs. should be leading the league in rushing.
DNA about to break 70.
Fly is fancy simply for the sake of being fancy, not because of some odd pumpkin latte.
Fly is like in the Seinfeld episode. Fly is a fancy boy with a man bag to carry his personal belongings.
LOL!
If that last one doesn’t draw him out, he really IS in Romania!
Did you see LIMM bounce off dah Benjameen rine?
Flucking uncanny!
I fink it wirr be short rived, unfoltunatery.
Light here at $101 should be the kitty bounce.
Not even a Fuck You. Somebody needs to go to his office to make sure he is okay.
Jeremy get on the Fly phone!
He’s down at disco church, praying. Leave him be.
Praying to the Bee Gees.
And the Blessed Mother, Donna Summer.
Mr. LIMM, funny, but you bear a striking resemblence to the Jakester.
I not know why???
We’ve narrowed down to the Fly being either in Romania or church. Hmmm. Or, is he in a “silent period”? Odd, but strikingly fancy, no?
