Glenn, the only "medication" i partake in would be of the 15 year old Cognac variety, and then only on weekends. :) Just because I often post with outrageous energy, or even occasionally in all caps, doesn't indicate anything more than a passion for the current market situation. Put it this way- if you were at a major league basketball game, would you just sit there when Jordan performs a perfect 360 degree dunk over the top of 2 opponents? Would you turn to the opposing fans and say "I say old chap, that was quite a goal, don't you think?" No, you'd stand up with your big foam "#1" glove and shout "Jesus! Did you see that shot!?? Fu**ing A!! GO BULLS!!!!!! YEAH!!!" Since the market is no longer about the fundamentals of business or profitability, but rather momentum, greed, and timing, is it any wonder that some (myself included) tend to express themselves in a manner more appropriate to fans at a sporting event, as opposed to clerks at a banking convention?
