senor cheesey---the world has accepted into it's vocabulary, the term "vealies" to signify a non-trade in the management of an AIM directed account. congratulations and all that other crap.

now, on to more important matters. we need another term. one that signifies utter stupidity. one that recognizes the lack of clear thinking, the lack of discipline. one that recognizes emotional, short sighted decisions that one regrets as soon as one has made them.

a term that will instantly identify an event in ones management of ones finances as being one to be held up to immediate and deserved ridicule. something that may make any one of us stop and pause to consider the ramification of knee jerk reactions. a term that when applied to us individually will be reason enough to hang ones head in shame as we suffer the scorn of others who will just tsk-tsk as they acknowledge the errors of our ways.

something simple, something easy to remember but yet something that will remind us for the rest of our years of the errors of our ways.

how about a "kaufman?" nah, too ethnic! i know---how about "strew?"
as in combining "steve" and "screwed-up." no, i got it---a STREWIE!
yep, that's it for me. if anyone else has any better ideas, you're welcome to submit them. but for now, it's a "STREWIE!"

p.s.---yes, i had a WONDERFUL week! the padded walls in the room i'm now in are quite comforting. Excuse me, it's time for more prozac.
