HRAKA! It lives! We thought you had become bored and left us. Posted at 1:31AM? Don't you come out of your bog during the day? Am I Sandy Duncan? No, I'm Roseanne Barr, which is just like Sandy Duncan, but addicted to ding-dongs. A BORL is a small, pig-like animal that lives in California. It taunts those who try to hunt it by popping its head out of its hole for a brief second and then burying itself in the ground for several days. Larger predators, like MSFTs and ORCLs, tend to ignore the BORL as being too small and gamey. Professional hunters like to make money with BORLs by selling them in large quantities to the general public right when it pops its head out of the hole. They then dig the BORLs up after they have buried themselves deep in the ground and force the buyers to pay up. Hraka, if this is a little too obtuse for you, ask Mitch or even Lee to explain it. Anybody who has ever been suckered into going long on BORL can explain it very well.
