Then he goes on to threaten: >>I'm actually thinking of leaving these boards. If his past on Suite101 is any guide, He'll keep saying that over and over... then write some very nasty comments about one of us (on Suite101 it was me) then when whomever he gets nasty with replies and says "yeah, you should leave" then he'll return to some hole and whine for years about being "forced to leave" or "being kicked off." I like what Liberty used to say when folks made fun of him on his Brinker is not the devil forum then said it was a waste of time to even read it. Liberty would say: "Don't let the door hit ya on the way out." BTW, doesn't dija remind you of Brinker posting with the Don Lane then Mister Topes handle here about taking his ball home if people kept bringing up his past record?

Very well said, well for a pig anyway. Dija did seem a little grumpy. Perhaps it's that monorail sapping bidness and longer waits in the desert heat for a fare. That's only a guess though because 'noone' knows what makes him tick. The thing I found strange is that it appears (I didn't apparently catch his post claiming this but a later one referring to such a claim) that Dija has 10 separate "friends" and 'acquaintences' who subscribe to Brinker's newsletter, knows what they did with his advice and knows that they sold the QQQs. Pardon me but that sounds like a crock of stink. I don't know anyone in real life (outside of people I've found in the internet discussions of Bob Brinker) that subscribe to his newsletter. Indeed I don't know anyone who listens to him on the radio. I don't know about anyone else but personal finances is almost never a topic of discussion in social situations. And when it does come up, it is very general in nature and I have no clue as to what moves others make in their personal finances. My best friend once asked me about a few things and I knew what he had invested in at that time, beyond that I have never known the details of any friend or acquaintences investments. Nor would I really want to know. 10 people "sharing" with Dija their personal financial decisions and all subscribing to Bob Brinker and making the same moves when they got the QQQ "idy" from Brinker. Strains credulity if you ask me. We went on a 10 day trip, 7 of it on a boat with a couple that I met on the investment forum at Suite 101 and not only do I not know what his personal financial moves are, Brinker's name was not mentioned one time. Dija must have some pretty strange "friends" and a pretty narrow focus in his real life relationships. I would wager that I would be hard pressed to find 10 people in my circle of friends and acquaintences that even knew who Bob Brinker was and would be very very surprised if any of them subscribed to his newsletter.

pig said: "Why are you targeting me? I am not a referee or a line judge in your argument with David K." --Pig, that SHOULD be very obvious, but here's why: 1) I asked davidk 4 questions, and predicted he wouldn't answer them. 2) He answered ONE, gave a half-assed answer to the second, and ignored the other two. 3) So, I was basically correct in my prediction. 4) You then said something to the effect of: Well, I guess davidk showed YOU! 5) The truth was, he only showed that my prediction had been essentially correct. The bottom line is, YOU made YOURSELF a referee, but a VERY poor and partial one!
