Ridiculous Success Awaits You…

… in 2008.

If you had setbacks in 2007, put them to the back of your mind.

Psychologically, those who use the new year as a “clean slate” or “fresh start” are mentally ill, since our calendar is nothing more than fodder—prior to death. Nonetheless, it works for me.

Mostly everyone I know uses the new year as an opportunity to repair or improve their lives.

From dieting to work ethic, the new year is the proverbial line in the sand, which enables you to change your life for the better. While it’s true, Godly folks, like “The Fly,” leave little room for improvement; there is always something that could be done with greater efficiency.

During 2008, I intend to exert more patience with people and actually listen to grievances, as opposed to “chucking them,” out of my fucking office.

Also, I will make more money.

Finally, don’t feel bad that you’re a pathetic fat fucker. There is plenty of time to correct your “gay ways” and start living a more “Fly life.”

Over the past year, I’ve enjoyed the dialog with many of you, while blogging like a fool— on FlyonWallstreet.blogspot.com and here. I’ve made some decent “internet friends,” and amassed many enemies, who will be attacked with “internet artillery” in 2008.

Heck, I’ve even sold “VIZ.” t-shirts to total strangers.

In closing, be sure to enjoy today’s festivities. But, DO NOT put your family or others at risk by drinking and driving. “The Fly,” as you already know, will celebrate tonight, like a King. The champagne will flow, while colossal shrimp get tossed around like gold coins (gold coins are readily tossed around at “The Fly’s” house).

Enjoy & Cheers.

Fly, 2007

    Happy New Year to all. Watch those stops, and think about buying some physical silver and gold.

    Or some GLD & SLV, next best thing.

    Brokers don’t like, but they better start paying attention to what the CB’s are doing here.

    Happy New Year’s to the entire “staff” at IBC.

    Meanwhile, I liked the way that you recognized your “role model” status and exhorted the masses not to drink and drive.

    Very responsible.

    Enjoy all,

    Boom — yes, for the return. Gold will double, eventually, and silver will do better than that.

    Yes, Central banks, not corner backs.

    BCON – agree, way off the highs of 2 mos ago.. though if we start taking water on weds, it not going to move.

    Yo Fly, I have adopted your lexicon and it appears that those I call asshats are aggrieved by the designation.. still I like the imagery. Happy New Year! Oh yea, first post here.

    For the record, now that Liz Clayman is no longer there, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera has the best tits on CNBC.

    Happy New Year.

    Fly,

    Best wishes for the new year to you and your time machine. ’07 was fun, fucked, and faggish (not that there is anything wrong with that). Bottom line, we all survived (financially and physically), so let’s celebrate that at least and push forward to one fantastic ’08. Drinking massive quantities of Cristal and smoking fine Cohibas. Look forward to checking in on Wednesday and starting the new year on the right foot – massive cash holdings, holding a few favs including FXY.
