Hi ggamer,

nah I don't mind, I have always put it on the thread . Like everyone else, it is a lot lower than it was but we have so much to be thankful for. Just wish I had a dog to hug right now.

Qcom - 27,000 shs. - 15,000 covered different strikes but all April

July 2000 190's,180's 170's 165's 160's 150's 140's = 1,000 Contracts

Jan 2001 165's 160's 150's = 200 contracts.

Cree - 5,000 shares

Dry Powder - Enough

One thing about this market that more and more people are going to begin to understand, is what I have started calling the 30/10 paradigm. In the past the techs would have to correct to about 30 % before most and that includes the Houses would jump in and start buying, that has now gone down to about 10%.

What really gets me upset, and what little thinking I am capable of, is done when I am irritated because of my ADD, is the following. If you have noticed with nothing major to talk about, the Media, especially CNBC just comes up with all kinds of crap trying to get an audience and it just pisses me off. The bond yield, what was it 3 weeks ago? That's right 6.75, and what do you suppose it is today, yep considerably less 6.28 but all you hear is interest rate scare tactics. Now let me ask you, since that great productivity number came out last Friday, when was the last you heard anything about it. That damn douche bag of a bond lady, Kathleen Hayes gets no greater thrill than jumping upon that bar stool with her size 4 panty hose crawling up her size 16 ass and start telling everyone the GD world is coming to an end. Well I am fed up with it. But hell, you think that's bad, my God gold may go to $300 a damn ounce, now what in the name of hell are we going to do if that happens, and not to mention I was going to buy a gold bracelet next week and now I bet the SOB will cost me at least 23 cents more. Next in the damn scare tree and falling out right before our feet is the damn oil prices. Boy, 30 dollars a barrel is just going to turn this old Tanker around in it's tracks when every swinging D--- on thread knows we probably are under paying the camel jockeys by 20 bucks or so and besides I really give a rats ass if Delta's stock is down four dollars for the day. Oh, and don't forget those damn Hackers, I mean hell, what will this country and the rest of the world do if Bible.com, Animal.com, My Plane.com, My Truck.com My Gun.com Homemade Bombs.com Motorcycle.com, Women.com, Viagra.com and God forbid Cnbc.com are down for two hours a year, give me a damn break.

I don't know about the DOW, those poor bastards have had more than ample opportunity to piss on the fire and call the dogs and they refuse, they deserve anything they get but the NAZ is going exactly where every graybeard this side of A.G. Edwards has said it won't go, straight the hell up, and interest rates within reason be damned. I say raise the SOB's, kill off the dow and leave us alone.

The Fed has a problem and you know it and I know it. If they keep raising the rates, the DOW stocks are going to die and the NAZ stocks are going skip on down the yellow brick road laughing like hell and so will you and I as long as you don't break down and buy B.F. Goodrich for Christ sake. So who is kidding who? The Fed does not know where to turn, the Houses don't know which way is up and coming from me that is saying something. Why is this bullish? When things are bad, trust me, everyone has an answer but when you don't have an answer as to why certain stocks are up, buy hell out of them, because my friend, they are going higher.

So Mr. G, Cnbc and the rest of you SOB's that said we would never get back up, raise your damn rates and spew your negative panty hose crap and we'll catch on the steps of our bank six months from now.

Sorry ggamer, but you asked.
