KG4, oh, I see you've met Ken. Ken's funny. You see, he rarely, if ever talks about suncom here. He does, however, love to go on and on about his puts (if you ask, he'll tell you to the PENNY how much he's made and how rich he's getting), and a little number called ABMD, which he pimps ad nauseum around here, that is until he realized the market for Titanium hearts was six. It might actually be four or five cause Bill Gates probably won't need one, though Warren Buffett might. That's why it was rather odd that he would erupt as he did, without really knowing you, simply for referencing a stock other than suncom. That's Ken though. Peculiar. He's watching Oprah alot now though, and he rather enjoys Dr. Phil, who is a regular, and a pop psychologist. I THOUGHT it was helping, but now I'm not so sure. PS: Oh, and Ken USED to have me on ignore, but that didn't last. He can't help himself. Let's see if we can flush him out. <G>

KG4 ... you are absolutely correct, and I apologize. Sometimes, I use this particular board to blow-off steam, which is neither appropriate or mature, and is usually intended to be offensive (twister knows well as he is usually my target - we have been giving it to each other pretty good for years). I will make an effort in the future not to strike out at others like I did - I almost never do it in the real world. Most of my posts are oriented towards what I believe will happen to equities in a macro economic sense and are well thought out and based on careful thought and research. Update: I purchased two S&P March "puts" in the last two weeks at strike prices of 1175 and 1150 which are looking real good. I also have 4 S&P September "puts" that I will sell early this week which I expect to break-even on. My 4 December "silver" futures are in the red, as is my large position in Abiomed. Everything else is cash. Advice: Watch-out everyone, the next seven weeks look like they will be awful for equities. Maybe we will finally see a real bottom in equities before Thanksgiving. Ken Wilson
