David, are you the bike rider on the thread?

I asked Harry a year ago what was one of the scariest things he had tried/been in (we were talking about ballooning etc., late one night) and he mentioned being the bike in the middle of a pack in a race I believe.....and I have never looked at biking groups the same since....imagining the "pressure" of being in the middle, having to go with the flow, not tipping and being a domino effect, that type of thing....funny how something I saw and thought so little of in a common sort of way was presented in a way that I could really see the pressure/danger........

Kinda like the look I get when "civilians" (non-traders) talk to me about trading sometimes. I say.....when you make a typo when typing a letter you just correct it and move along---you can correct and you can change your mind. I said as a trader I can't change my mind if a trade is going against me without losing some money which could be a week's salary or months salary for someone..... I said also imagine that the minute you put on a trade you are already in the red and sometimes a l/2 point if you are in that type of stock.

boy, Brian Finnery (sp) was just on CNBC and I have never seen him so shook up as he is usually a positive character. He said he got scalded today!.....they said....give that guy a mallox after he was done......he was arranging his tie so much he looked like Hardy from Laurel and Hardy......whew! Some of these guys are my indicators......when they are out of character like that..........
their body language is a truth-o-meter....
