Pardon Your Indiscretion

I would like to address several points, all of which are of great importance to the health and vibrancy of the U.S. economy.

Steroid fuckers: quit using the machines at the gym in unorthodox ways. One of the major downers for “The Fly” is not being able to punch off the mustaches from the 300lb cretins at the gym, for using the pull-up bars like a child’s monkey bar playground. Let me be clear: I could try to punch off their eyebrows and maybe hire some ex-marine to intercept incoming “roid blows”; but why bother?

The second half of 2009 is all about peace for Senor Tropicana.

Another pet peeve of mine: men inside eyebrow waxing joints. Seriously, men who get their eyebrows plucked, and nails shined, need to just grab the homo-hammer already and stop playing “Testosterone Timmy” at the gym.

Look, I know you are all confused about the markets, especially with Asia deep in the red. However, “The Fly” is not here to offer sage advice. Fuck that shit. There are plenty of horse lovers out there who slave over their filthy computers, for your reading displeasure. While on iBankCoin, specifically my blog, you are here to entertain me. I have been buying all sorts of crap, from Tesoro Corporation [[TSO]] to Sunstone Hotel Investors, Inc [[SHO]] . I have been grilled, like an oily pork chop, in Flotek Industries, Inc. [[FTK]] and Sterling Financial Corporation [[STSA]] (very small position), yet here I am still talking shit.

Here’s the thing, the website is my true passion. I enjoy writing and building stuff, finding blog talent, inventing analytic engines— things of that nature. Managing money, while incredibly rewarding, is boring. As you know, I am not into having a boring life. And, for your information, I NEVER eat boring tuna. One day, “The Fly” will blog from his penthouse apartment, located on the top of the Empire State Building needle.

Unfortunately, I have numerous meetings to attend tomorrow morning. Hence, blogging will be light or entirely non-existent. Just so you know, should the market plunge tomorrow, I will be advantageous with my ridiculous “hurricane thesis” buys. If we go up, I will probably sit tight or take some profits on some of my garbage holdings. Truth be told, I am holding far too much garbagio at the moment.

    Fly… i think its easier to punch the juicers’ mustaches off than to kick them in the nuts, if they haven’t lost them yet. i know what you mean though… what i hate most about the gym is those sweat bags that leave their back/head/neck/balls/calf sweat on the chair after doing a set. WIPE IT DOWN FOOL!!

    For the most part I think the US markets are raising because of surprise growth in Europe. How long can that last. ?

    Fly – Have you thought about engaging a personal trainer at the gym?

    I’ll block your punches with my oversized red bouncy ball.
    My pet peeve is fuckers at the gym who bring their Ped-Egg into the Sauna with them.

    I believe this is the culmination of all theories and plans —
    http://www.green-agenda.com/neweconomy.html

    This is a detailed description of the economic future. The description is that already signed and agreed to by most world leaders.

    Don’t ever say I never did anything for you, because this post effectively saves you hundreds of hours of research and worrying about what’s to come.

    You’ll either thank me, or attack me. If you attack me, please remember these are not my plans, but those of your leaders — and they’ve already signed on the bottom line.

    Fly — i like that you admit blogging is more interesting than managing money. i expected that but didnt think you’d write it. Good on you.
    many of us corporate slugs talk shit like we want to follow our passion, jump out and work for less salary for back-end upside. But we can’t let go of the easy salary game – some of us make serious money banging on a computer all day. Crazy shit is we’re hard core republicans – yet we play the corporate game like a bunch of commie democrats.

      If you work in a trading room, stop whiningas it’s the closest thing to running your own business without the headaches.

    Real men don’t go to gyms.

    They do 15 pushups every hour behind their desk(jail style training) and for cardio do jumping jacks in the backs of stretched white limo’s with license plates that read BOWLONU

    we can’t seem to break thru 9400 and rise from there. Everytime it hits close it falls back to the 9200-9100 area….

    we are for sure in a holding pattern of sorts, the question is for how long and what will change the pattern.

    You may very well be a more gifted writer than money manager.

    I shorted a shit ton of NOV this morning at $39.20, and will short more if it flirts with $42, however unlikely.

    Wow! that is l I have to say about the ass kicking I have taken the past few days. Eventhough it is mostly paper loss I still feel the pain.
    I am bearly able to breathe fresh air on some of my shorts. Luckily I shorted TOL and WYNN almost at their highs last week so I can still breathe but my COF short which I had to cover kicked my ass. As well as getting back into SRS at the wrong time. All in all being in mostly cash eases my pain but this low volume melt up is killing me. Especially my december SPY puts. I still believe a sell off is coming when the big boys get back in the game and they see the easy money to be made by chopping off mom and pop’s head. But the waiting is the hardest part
