Hi John

<<Not jumping and shouting? Yes. We are similarly biased there too. When running with the lemmings no need to chirp. But must yell "excuse me, going the other way, excuse me, coming through..." when going against the tide.>>

Too funny!

<<Jay toys with everything and everyone. He is playful like a child...I know very well the style of his enjoyable game.>>

That will be the French side of my heritage. The other game is Unreal Tournament.

<<Which approach you attempted, and indeed are still attempting as of the post to which I reply ("housing prices in San Fransisco").>>

Really funny and thankfully long read at

What followed was quite a fascinating discussion of the "Productivity of the Sushi Chef." "Berry, that low-cost Chinese eatery you used to frequent was replaced by the Kamikaze Sushi Factory. The production of that shop space has jumped 10-fold, with only a few extra employees. The productivity of those workers has probably gone up 5-fold. People come in willing and able shell out $40 on platters of sushi, and these chefs just crank the stuff out. It is truly amazing how much value they add." "Forty dollars!" Barry exclaimed, "I used to try to keep dinner limited to $7 dollars at that very same location."

Barry continued: "While everyone says inflation is dead and buried, don’t you think there is inflation at work here and not some miracle economy?" Darrell responded: "No, the sushi is about the same price it’s has always been. Folks just prefer and can afford the more expensive selections and order a lot more items than they used to. They also carry a great selection of premium sake that is all the rage. This is about wealth creation Berry, not inflation," his friend confidently explained. Berry wasn’t convinced, but kept his thoughts to himself.

<<I don't hold as much stock in eloquence as I do in relentless logic without basis in supposition. To beat the horse one more time, you could wax poetic about LE's motives and I will still point to you that not being posessed of LE's brain, your attempt to explain LE's motivation is uninformed guesswork... at best. Or in math terms again, bull$hit is the sophist equivalent of zero: multiply any fact with bull$hit and you get bull$hit. However fine you want to slice it.>>

Wow ... as the ANNOUNCER on Unreal Tourney would say: Dominate!

<<On Jay's manners - inviting you here and then feeding upon you... or those of other bears, caution. As I mentioned before, this is a den of bears and such is the way of the beast.>>

I did give fair warning(s) about the snack food to be brought to the den from stock specific threads ...

But, none the less, apologies truly on "drivel" again. I crossed the line by using that word. I can see how that would bite me had it been used to describe one of my posts by someone who invited me over to post. It is OK for the fellow bears here to feast, but not OK for the bear that invited in the snack to feast in quite the same way. Not kosher at all.

Chugs, Jay
