Last Ultrasound!


Placenta is in the right spot (ie: no C-section - yay!)
Baby is fine (though s/he gave the technician a hard time) and no longer looks like Harold from Harold and the Purple Crayon!

Another Cool Site


I met this artist the other day and his stuff is pretty cool. Check it out!

Trades for Thursday 6/26/08


Perhaps the proverbial shit has finally hit the fan.........unfortunately I was on the wrong side of it today. My STP kicked in early, which is a good thing at this point. I decided yesterday that I wasnt going to take the chance and wait for earnings. So....


Closing Trades:

Sold ACN @ 38.87



In terms of opening a new position today, Im inclined to sit back and wait, however, there is one long that fits the strategy. I just havent decided if Im going to play it or not.



Possible Trades for the Close:

Shorts:

LEN (not looking for the regular 1/2 pt on this one given the prx)



Longs:

RBN



Hmmm....

Stock pickers need side jobs too!

Now THAT'S A Niche!




I love business...the whole process of taking a concept and creating a money making enterprise fascinates me.




I recently came across this business idea in a magazine and found it to be rather amusing...yet needed, I'm sure! SOMEONE was using their head!!!





Mwahahahaha!!





OK OK

Damn Damn Damn!!

Must be Opposite Day!!!!

I hate Fed rate week.....Im certainly no analyst, but come on people, they arent going to do anything!  Inflation has hit, so to lower interest rates again, I doubt will happen.  I dont see the rationale in raising them either...

GRRR!!

(Edit @ 12:30 pm):  Well then - I suppose I spoke to soon.......Im really waaay better off if I dont watch things!!!  I hereby take back Opposite Day, but still stand by my interest rate comments.  So there!

Trades for Monday 6/23/08

Closing Trades:
Sold KR @ 26.38
(Didnt want to wait for earnings on this one - my stop limit kicked in)

Possible Trades for the Close:
Shorts:
WAG - not 100% confident in this one....not a lot of history to go on - WAG doesnt often miss its numbers AND its a DOW component.  It does fit the model however.  Im not doing it.

Longs:
DRI - perhaps im reading to much into this, and I should know better than to read the message boards, but it doesnt look good.......I even compared the messages leading up to earnings in other quarters, and this quarter is decidedly more negative.  So im a bit stuck now.  So as a compromise, Im buying, just not so much ....@ 30.66.
