Turkey Claus is Coming

We made changes to The PPT algorithms yesterday, which pushed the Overall hybrid score down to 2.24. And yet here we are, one day later, up 100 points. Hence the term applies: “The PPT” wins all the time, even when it’s not supposed to.

“The Fly” has been out all day, discussing the important matters of opera vs gangster rap and the effects they have on the “working class.” However, fast forward 1 hour from that, here I am talking to you, “the working class.” How ironic, no?

I am missing out on this rally, due to my “Simple Jack” 60% cash position. But do not fear for me, since I have the patience of an elephant. To be clear, it’s not like I am not making money today, with 40% of my capital long. However, I am making money “lite,” in a rather cowardly manner, which is something that I am not proud of. I am shamed.

The bears are a stupid class of people. All they do is philosophize over the economy and how the world will look like in 25 years, when America is under military command by greedy prison factory inventors from China. I spit on them, from 15 yards away.

With my money, I will buy something.

Stay tuned.

          Not anymore, grandpa. Not when used artistically and sensibly.

          Literary rules aren’t quite as strict, here in the blogosphere. Are you here illegally? May I see your green card, please?

            Costanza, you are in Hitler’s inner sanctum of the spelling/grammar nazi SS! Plus, making a comment like “we all helped pay for it,” in reference to someone buying a Chrysler is neither artistic or sensible. It is in fact very inartistic.

            Let’s keep green cards out of this, mang.

            You are a pretty serious dude, DSB. Was it not an obvious light-hearted joke? And by artistic, I meant that it was used, logically, as an extension of his sentence. It wasn’t an – to use the iBC cliche – “egregious” error.

            And I was just razzing Fly, however long ago that was, about spelling & grammar. Haven’t done it since then. Thanks for keeping me in mind, though.

            BTW, what the heck is a mang?

            lol

            Shed a tear ’cause I’m missing you
            I’m still alright to smile
            Girl, I think about you every day now
            Was a time when I wasn’t sure
            But you set my mind at ease
            There is no doubt you’re in my heart now
            Said woman take it slow
            It’ll work itself out fine
            All we need is just a little patience
            Said sugar make it slow
            And we’ll come together fine
            All we need is just a little patience
            (inhale) Patience…
            Ooh, oh, yeah

    GROW was the lucky “13” stock from my list to hit $13… I’m making an outrageous call for $14 today though..

            Nice double entendre.

            Now what you should do is collect the teeth from all of the gold bears (ironically gold too) you slaughtered, and fix them in a line to an errant bone. Call it the JIGsaw! (Jake-Is-God-saw). Use it whenever you need to thin the herd or send a message.

    I think the gangster rappers will prevail over the opera rappers, but I’ve never heard any opera rap.

    Mr. Fly,

    Amazing the PPT seems to be infallible. Could the change in the algorithms be able to tell

    me the score of ” Last” weeks Giant game.

    Gint, Fly needs his back shaved again, four o’clock work for you?

      C’mon Shemp, you know your assignment:

      You kneel at the shower room glory hole but under no circumstances do you look through it!

      Now get back to work, lip gloss.

    ” The bears are a stupid class of people” — Oh really, something tells me you will be singing a different tune here soon. If the bears are so stupid and the bulls are so smart- why didn’t one bull see the crisis coming. It was only bears that were warning about the burst of the bubble. Bears are realist and objective thinkers who look at both sides of the issue. Bulls are often subjective thinkers, when they succumb to an idea, they offen run off at a tangent because of their emotions. They are prone to get caught up in crowd thinking and get caught up in manias and bubbles.
