Cashboy is in for 8% now, split between five ideas.
RYJUX is the smallest position, just a 1% bet.
Four biotechs are the other 2% bets, or a little
less than that I guess. So something like 7% of my
net worth in just four biotechs--maybe a little too
aggressive, don't try this at home! And of course
I haven't made any money on biotechs (not real money
anyway) since 1999/2000, so I am not expecting much
from my picks. Don't have a real good feel for it,
I admit it. Anybody annoyed by my frequent hand
wringing and whining should stay off the thread,
that is for sure.

I had a lot of heartache about decreasing my cash--it
was not easy. A lot of fear and self loathing for
having done so poorly these past couple years.
Anyway, I bought stuff last Wednesday and finished
buying today. I am going to try and avoid the quotes
as best I can, maybe bury myself in Warcraft on rainy
days and yardwork the others. And there is still some
good skiing to be had for the next few weeks.
Good luck all!
