    Deja vu

    Deja Vu... the illusion of having previously experienced a situation that is happening now. How bout some related expressions... Feels like I've... ...milked this cow before: deja moo ....learned this stuff before: deja knew ....waited in line before: deja queue ...sat through this sermon before...deja pew :blink: :unsure: <_<
  5. I can confidently say that: I make more money than God ...and I still Tithe. :) I am at the point where my investments generate more income annually than my business. I plan on working as long as I live on a part-time basis.
  6. Boston Fans Objects in Mirror are closer than they appear
  7. I don't think the fans that will attend the game will care much about sight lines. Tailgate parties and NewYears Eve hangovers will prevail. The NHL has blocked off many rooms at Buffalo hotels for Pittsburg fans. It will be one BIG cure the after New Years Hangover Party for the fans attending. The NHL and HD TV will bring a new look for those watching on TV. Already the 28 dollar tickets bought by locals are being sold on Ebay for 300 bucks. Hope there is a brawl!! Old fashion hockey..gotta love it.
  8. The Buffalo Sabres and Pittsburg Pens will skate outdoors at Buffalo Bills Stadium on January 1,2008. The NHL and NBCHD will be doing the game live before the largest crowd ever to see a NHL hockey game. Unfortunately, I was not one of the 75000 luckey fans to get tickets. It will be seen in between college bowl games not during. I guess it's the NHL's way of promoting hockey. Should be fun.
  9. 'Now that was classy!, dodging those batteries, cherry bombs, and other projectiles was an adventure in genuine metropolitan sophistication, and a lesson in the true giving "Spirit Of New York". _________ Maybe it's time for your annual eye exam...the projectiles you speak of were the balls going out of the park..in baseball terms they are called home runs. as I recall..a few of your Boston fans jumped into the Yankee bullpen a few years back..got pummeled by a couple of Yankee pitchers. At any ballpark your gonna get a few crazy arse fans doing crazy arse things. Whether it's Fenway in Boston,Yankee Stadium in NYC Jacobs field in Cleveland or Camden Yards in Baltimore there will always be arseholes. Beer and Crazy Arses are a bad mix at any ballpark especially during key playoff implication games . As a New Yorker I would never judge the city of Boston by the few idiots that cause trouble at Fenway..I would hope you would do the same with NYC. Why generalize man!! I will always remember the unselfish response NYers unleased during 911. Priceless!! A few drunkin sports fans can't void that memory. It's only a GAME man!!!
  10. Your Yearly Dementia Test It's that time of year to take our annual senior citizen test. Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow older, it's important to keep mentally alert. If you don't use it, you lose it! Below is a very private way to gauge your loss or non-loss of intelligence. Take the test presented here to determine if you're losing it or not. The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until you've made your answer. OK, relax, clear your mind and begin. 1. What do you put in a toaster? Answer: "bread." If you said "toast," give up now and do something else. Try not to hurt yourself. If you said, bread, go to Question 2. 2. Say "silk" five times. Now spell "silk." What do cows drink? Answer: Cows drink water. If you said "milk," don't attempt the next question Your brain is over-stressed and may even overheat. Content yourself with reading a more appropriate literature such as Auto World. However, if you said "water", proceed to question 3. 3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from? Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said "green bricks," why are you still reading these??? If you said "glass," go on to Question 4. 4. It's twenty years ago, and a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany (If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany .) Anyway, during the flight, two engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the engine fails before he can do so and the plane fatally crashes smack in the middle of "no man's land" between East Germany and West Germany . Where would you bury the survivors? East Germany , West Germany , or "no man's land"? Answer: You don't bury survivors. If you said ANYTHING else, you're a dunce and you must stop. If you said, "You don't bury survivors", proceed to the next question. 5. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from London to Milford Haven in Wales . In London , 17 people get on the bus. In Reading , six people get off the bus and nine people get on. In Swindon, two people get off and four get on. In Cardiff , 11 people get off and 16 people get on. In Swansea , three people get off and five people get on In Carmathen, six pe ople get off and three get on. You then arrive at Milford Haven. What was the name of the bus driver? Answer: Oh, for crying out loud! Don't you remember your own name? It was YOU!!
  11. Hey Mstar. Was that you running onto the field last night during the game. That's class!!! your comment..'If NYs miracle comeback of Friday doesnt happen its 2 of 3, Take away Schillings one hanging splitter to Jeter in the 8th last night, which Jeter homered on ( which was a classic battle btw) and its a sweep, then the Yankees could have battled the last few weeks with the Tigers for the wildcard.' you do realize baseball is a nine inning game right? by the way... IF..frogs had wings they wouldn't hit their arse on the lillypads. if if if ...

  13. When I first saw this clip it reminded me of my old HS coach. Makes me want to call him and thank him again for his talent. There is a great message here..real men (and women too) know what I'm talking about. Not for the faint of heart.
  14. Dang = Shhhiittt When you find yourself up dang creek without a paddle who are you going to turn to? The dang Creek Paddle Company, of course! We're here to help. The dang Creek Paddle Company has been helping people stranded in the nether regions of excremental waterways of all sorts for close to half a century. As purveyors of fine paddles to discerning travelers our sole mission is to help. So, if you find yourself in dodo or kaka and need a quality instrument of propulsion just call us. "Sometimes you really need this dang and sometimes you don't want any dang at all." Well, it's dang ... that's right, dang! dang may just be the most functional word in the English language. Consider: You can get dang-faced, Be dang-out-of-luck, Or have dang for brains. With a little effort, you can get your dang together, find a place for your dang, or be asked to dang or get off the pot. You can smoke dang, buy dang, sell dang, lose dang, find dang, forget dang, and tell others to eat dang. Some people know their dang, while others can't tell the difference between dang and shineola. There are lucky dangs, dumb dangs, and crazy dangs. There is bull dang, horse dang, and chicken dang. You can throw dang, sling dang, catch dang, shoot the dang, or duck when the dang hits the fan. You can give a dang or serve dang on a shingle. You can find yourself in deep dang or be happier than a pig in dang. Some days are colder than dang, some days are hotter than dang, and some days are just plain dangty. Some music sounds like dang, things can look like dang, and there are times when you feel like dang. You can have too much dang, not enough dang, the right dang, the wrong dang or a lot of weird dang. You can carry dang, have a mountain of dang, or find yourself up dang creek without a paddle Sometimes everything you touch turns to dang and other times you fall in a bucket of dang and come out smelling like a rose. When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of the English language. And remember, once you know your dang, you don't need to know anything else!! You could pass this along, if you give a dang; or not do so if you don't give a dang! Well, dang, it's time for me to go. Just wanted you to know that I do give a dang and hope you had a nice day, without a bunch of dang But, if you happened to catch a load of dang from some dang-head.......... Well, dang Happens!!!
  15. I bought a GPS device this past spring and it's great. I have a service business that takes me all over from inner city to the off the beatin track backroads . I used to stop and look at a map to find out the street but now I just program the zip and address and the GPS takes me right in the driveway. Anyone else enjoy this technology?
  16. _______ HAHAHAHAH!! Good one Sudo So the beard and stash are surgically implanted I guess? I've been outside since I was a little voyeur :unsure:
  17. Another 2% drop next week and I'm buying. Sorry Bump... Not ready to raise the white flag...only you Frenchmen do that.
  18. As I stated in my previous post do what you feel in your gut. I've made my choice based on historical common sense. The chart below speaks for itself. You have every right to follow the doom and gloomers and/or politicians that are clueless when it comes to fiscal responsibility whether Democrat or Republican. Whether its a stock, mutual fund ,bond, or income property I really don't care what Hillary, GW, Rocco, or Rudy has to say. I make my choice based on my investigations and personal advisors and historicle evidence. This has been my vacation week. Next week ..back to work...Must say it was fun strolling around G-spot this past week. Hope you all achieve your goals...just win baby!!! Little personal advice..go with your gut. Do we have a deal? For bets/wagers please consult Michael Vick in Atlanta doggonit ...Thank you.
  19. I'm sticking with it. I look at this as a healthy correction. I still believe the market will move to the 15000 range by the end of the year. Historically, you cannot disput the markets ability to move forward . Guys, we live in America...if you chose to invest as I do ..great..if you don't ..great. If you chose to bury your talons ...great. You put your talons where you wish..I'll do the same. The idea is to get gains from your talons ..right? Also ..please post your remarks here and stop e-mailing me your comments. I respect your concern but I am pretty comfortable in my strategy. I really didn't start this thread out of fear. Really ...I view this time with a positive economic outlook..I'm comfortable with the Feds Monetary Policy and because my current stock market investments are long term..I'm willing to ride the bumpy road ahead if that's where the market goes.
  20. I'm learning a lot from everyone although there seems to be some conflicting advice. I'm only 50 minutes from Niagara Falls , Canada. My understanding is that they have the latest and most updated equipment. I will schedual an exam to see if I qualify for Lasik. Thanks for the help.
  21. 'My feet don't want to sit in cement for 40 years to play it safe until I retire...Besides, you're LOCKED IN no matter how you allocate and if you need the $$$ you pay a big withdrawl penalty.' _________________--- Nobody is argueing unless you are? You have every right to keep your feet out of the cement. You seem to want to look at the future in terms of what may happen negatively..thats OK ..for you I on the other hand want to look at the future in terms of the historical results in a positive way. What I give to my IRa or 401K is just another bill to me. I don't plan on touching it till I retire. The divorce rate is now at 50% for all marriages. Some would say ..I won't get married because it has a 50% chance at failure. I'd risk it and say I have a 50% chance for it to succeed. If it didn't I'd shoot the bitchh...
  22. I'm sticking with it. Diversification is the key. I noticed the market is down 160 points today. Seems like a lot of investors are taking some profits like me. My grandfather invested, my Dad invested, I guess I am sold on it. When the Market fell in March of 2000 I was invested heavily in Tech Stock mutual funds. I lost over half my investment value. Bob Brinker called for a sell order on all stock market investments in January 2000. Wrote a letter to all Markettimer subscribers to sell and go to Money Market funds. The one time I didn't follow his recommondation I get clobbered. March 2000 was a killer. I moved all my investment to Money Market in April 2000 . When he gave the buy order in March of 2003 I went back to a fully stock market invested position. I have gained all my loses back and then some. The good thing about Bob is he's not a politician. 401K, 403B, Traditional IRA's as well as SEP IRA's can't be touched without penalty until your 65. Your can move your investments around within your retirement accounts sell your stock funds and put proceeds into Money markets within your accounts but you can not take any dollars out for personal use until your 65. If you start saving in these retirement plans when your young and stay in them continuing to contribute every year until you retire (maybe 40 years) you will be happy. Show me any 40 year period of time during the US Stock market history where you would have lost?
  23. and if frogs had wings they wouldn't hit their a$$ on the lillypads. Actually the market has gone up over it's history with many peaks and valleys along the way. The market should be used as a long term investment not a get rich quick tool. If your well diversified with your investments..mutual funds..you'll be fine in the Long Run ..
  24. Exciting times in the Market. Hope your 401K is up. Two Thirds of the American workforce is invested in the market via their 401K or 403B so I would hope things are up for ya. The market is up 30% in the last 12 months. Please don't turn this into a political assasination thread. I've been a faithful subscriber to Bob Brinkers Markettimer newsletter for 20 years and have nothing but the highest regard for his investment recommondations. Some are predicting a 15000 DOW by the end of 2007. With two kids in college..that would be a blessing.
