Try some of these cookies and you'll feel better about doing stupid things.

MERRY CHRISTMAS COOKIES
"Make some of these cookies during the holidays. They're awesome!"

1 cup of water
Lemon juice
1 tsp baking soda
4 large eggs
1 cup of sugar
1 cup nuts
1 tsp salt
2 cups of dried fruit
1 cup of brown sugar
1 bottle of Jack Daniel's Whiskey

Sample the Jack Daniel's to check quality. Take a large bowl, check the Jack Daniel's again, to be sure it is of the highest quality, pour one level cup and drink.
Turn on the electric mixer..... Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.
Add one teaspoon of sugar.... Beat again. At this point it's best to make sure the Jack Daniel's is still OK, try another cup just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit. Pick the frigging fruit off floor..... Mix on the turner. If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the Jack Daniel's to check f or tonsisticity.
Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who giveshz a sheet.
Check the Jack Daniel's. Now sift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table.
Add a spoon of sugar, or somfink. Whatever you can find.
Greash the oven.
Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Don't
forget to beat off the turner. Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Dack Janiels and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.

One recent error of mine was to not keep at least a stub position in Harley Davidson. I pretty much missed the latest great run up by giving up too soon and closing the position. grrr

Maybe it was an obvious buy (and not a sell). What the heck are 38,000 soon-to-be early-retired Ford workers going to do with their lives?

Buy Harley's, customize 'em and travel the country of course.

Obvious. -gg-

Didn't dawn on me though.

Madharry, regarding oil stock purchases: I sold some WTI for a tax loss on 10/9/06 @$28/sh. I bought the shares back plus a bit more @$34.66 on Friday. I believe I will average up on this one again by buying more if/when stock advances further.

To diversify further among Canadian oil/gas trusts and to increase my bet just a little in this arena, I started a small position in Provident Energy Trust (PVX).
