In order to sway a rogue Canadian blog contest. So you know, iBankCoin reigned supreme in this same poll about a year ago. Apparently, winning internet glory once was not enough for Senor Tropicana. He wants to win it again, and again, and again, and again….

Sorry, I was about to levy my sinecure when, lo, it appeared… the competition you’ve always dreaded.

Im more bullish than a redneck on speed
does my avatar work now?
I just voted and IBC is showing up in the pitiful position of 6th place.
Leave it to those wily Canadians to run this poll over the Fourth of July week when all good American interneters (I know, but it should be a word) are BBQ-ing fireworks and lighting off hot dogs. I may have had too much to drink. Developing…
Geez, Fly is gonna get beat by the We’re queer, We’re here, and We’re investing website? That’s kind of like the Homo Hammer Death Knell.
Well you have my vote, of course, but it’s going to be tough to compete with the content on Squawkfox.
I just downloaded “10 Reasons to Love Raised Garden Beds” – that shit is the bomb!!
You need to have the tabbed ones write about Spanish moss and root rot or this site’s in T-rubble.
Fo shizzle.
Okay. I voted. By the way Steve,Jr. will be sending Bar Mitzvah invites to the Fly family. He wants to invite the commentators on your blog but quite frankly some are a little scary and meshugana.
Flaps, that is the singularly most hilarious avatar I’ve seen since iWin’s machine gun cat.

I heard that kitty went MIA while “on assignment” in Jordan.
Godspeed you, locked and loaded American Tabby…
Better hurry up and vote, minions, currently an organic farming blog is topping the charts
Square foot gardening lead article? WTF? Do you really want to be in that group of circus geeks? (Voted for us anyway…)
Wait a minute…Is this Jake’s MON play or something?
Anyone wonder why Friday was so strange?
iBC will crush them all. Trust in our Imperial dominance over the financial blogosphere.
Fly:
Have you been having any correspondence with MSM since the site became better known that you can share with us?
Danny:
Friday was strange because I wasn’t trading and had to go to bed early my time as I drank some really shitty wine that evening. It wouldn’t have been strange if I had stayed up 🙂
Dude it’s summer Friday and anything can happen in a market that is still gripped with fear and tension.

“I am optimistic that, long-term, we can work our way out of this crisis but we need to do it through hard work, not make-believe games that everything got magically better with no pain at all and, until the market begins to embrace that reality, I will continue to watch the sky for signs of cracks, just in case…. ”
This is so true and this is the point I kept trying to make… People want the easy way out and “make believe” that everything is alright and think by “thinking” that way, all the problem will go away… fu**ing American, you need to take some pain ok, no more happy happy days… Jesus, just get this through the thick skull of your’s…
Ruh roh, someone’s not a “Yankee” fan.
Blues, surely you learned this in your history books?
We always win.
________
BTW, Blues, you happy go lucky guy… I’ve got your gravatar image ready.
______
As always, the gentlemen of IBC have my vote, as well as the votes of my crew and bitches.
Now tied at 125 with the home gardening/financial powerhouse from Canuckistan.
_____
Problem if you win the poll is then you’ll be flooded with canucks to the ppt and you’ll have to add tsx stocks.
Indie — too late…. he won last year and we’re knee deep in Canucks already.
Bonus — most of them brought Molsen.
________
Blues – you know zero hedge is perma-bear? he’s not interested in making you money. he’s just interested in being right. obviously, you know the story about that thing about being right twice a day…
things are shitty. but you know what, things were pretty damn shitty before (fuck those last 8 years which culminated in the big jizz fest of fall 08) and we’re still here making dosh. don’t dwell. learn, adapt, move on. what’s the next big thing? somewhere the sun is shinning. where’s that? refuse change at your own perils.
Voted for iBC…. now in first place, but only by a hair
Voted. You’re in 1st place.
Just voted!! We’re still first!
Voter #155. 1st place.
Back to drinking.
Cheers.
IBC on top with classic Bilderberg commentary.
Teahouse:
Can you tell me one person that even knew or gives a toss about Bilderberg?
j, where you been? Bilderberg was one of the founding fathers of iBC. He even had his own tab, back when tabs were allowed by the imperial Emperor.
Oh that’s right, Hans Bilderberg one of the original fathers of this site. I forgot about Hans.
Thanks for reminding me, Shed.
Would someone remind j of Bilderberg’s blog on here, when we first opened up? Rumor has it that he loved blogging was but worried someone would track him down.
#184 , pulling away Sunday AM.
Tribute to Michael Jackson. It would even embarrass Allah.

and very, very gay.
Fly, you will allways be first…..The Globe is a great national paper here in Canada and it is there where I first saw recommendations for your blog…..You are currently number one re voting and yes “so much more”……………ibank coin is the best!
Voted.
J — that’s just a Jackson tune overlaid on video of some other hoopi dance those oddfellows do. Surely you don’t think that crisp audio is coming from that grainy home vid camera?
The art of editing… it’s sometimes overlooked (as it’s meant to be, I guess).
__________
Jake:
So you don’t think a bunch of guys wearing long dress thingis and dancing together is very gay? What do you get up to in the off hours,?
As usual, the Fly wins again!
Below is a link to a Rolling Stone article on gangster capitalism and the influence of Goldman ..a must read for US citizens who vote.

Billy Mays DEAD!
OK you got my vote you big BUG. It is the least I can do,after all your generousity
It’s been a bad week for celebs
http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-billy-mays29-2009jun29,0,6116879.story
Death Pool. Who’s next?
Farrah, Ed, Michael and now Billy Mays DEAD!!!
This is too much. http://tinyurl.com/nw7jy4
New Post: Sham Wow! Bily Mays Cashes Out at 50.
_______
I have no analysis on the relative homosexuality of the dance, J (I’ll leave that to you) — only that it was not being performed to the Gloved One’s tune.
___________
Voted. On second thoughts, coming first on a second tier canadian website may cause more worry than good, no? Anyways, FIG!
geez, it’s turning into a runaway victory!
All gravatars should be sold on the open market. Gappy wheres your gravatar?
Billy Mays is not here. What a fucking jinx week for Hollywood. Start snapping up all of his seen on TV shit…the squeege, the big city slider. the magic broom.
We end 09 900. I’d like to see a run in INTC, GLW, MSFT, FCX, UNG,
fly, you should make links posted in the comments section open in a new window, like they did on the old site. keeps readers on your site. and as a reader, i want to check out the link without having to navigate back to your page when finished. just a suggestion
Ecchy,
Nice cankle.
A GREAT MAN DIED TODAY. RIP Mr. Mays.
Gravitar? Gravitar! I don’ need no stinkin’ gravirar!
And, the Globe & Mail Election makes Iran’s look legit. I think it’s been rigged!
Note: If you have your insurance with “Progressive Insurance” you need your fucking balls re-attached because you are most likely a ballsackless man such as the many in the commercials.
That is all, back to my Billy Mays memorial.
I would like to see them rename the Franklin Howard bridge over the Tampa Bay The Billy Mays OxiClean Bridge.
hmmmm….seems to be a walk-off. Clean up the dugout.
Beware of election irregularities!!!!
voted.
Voted. Fly’s got Yogi’s vote. Looks like a landslide.
Yes, but who received Boo Boo’s vote?
Good week for dirt napping idiots Dead Ed and M J in one week. Two down thousands to go ..just in the “celebrity” sector..Remaining million +useless Americans , illegals and Politicians still sucking the life out of the country will require patience and Plague ala Camus
Voted ibc of course
Why are you guys voting for Fly in that poll? If he gains popularity as a result it means more people possibly trading his views when it could be you trading at that price.
If you really like Fly and his views, you should be voting against him, not for him.
I want more buyers on my side thank you J…
If we had 500 mill traders on this site we could move any stock even FTK…. We could raid just like the big boys………
Gozo, J has a point. Fly will have the cramer effect. Too many people listening to his advise and trading. You lose the edge as soon as the information is out.
J
Go fuck yourself.
Mr. Fly. Bad language should not be tolerated and you should go in time out.
Wally and the Beav are shocked by the language and we had to explain to then what those bad words meant. We were hoping to have the talk when they go to college.
Sorry Fly…. You know I really think highly of you. It’s nothing personal, obviously. Just business 🙂
Is the spag muncher doing a Vogue shot?

ugh, ignore that shit.
I thought I was on TCA’s tab.
Where’s my edit function, dammit!?
o.k. I voted. iBC is number 1 by twice second place…..
good deal….
DPeezy – we have laws in the US for these kinds of things. lolz
iBC is still topping the charts. Should have all FTK shareholders vote. 1 vote per share- that’ll move the chains!
Billie (Mays) will be missed. Met him on a number of occassions. Very engaging, nice guy.
