My fellow FBN'ers,
while catching up on my surfing yesterday (I've been busy negotiating with Kathy Lee on the manufacturing details for the complete line of FBN clothing), I noticed that one of our competitors has an interesting feature on their web-site : the "Private Log In" button. I performed a rigorous test of this feature, and am happy to report that it is still way behind our "secret members-only clubhouse" technology.

Still, I hope this will serve as a warning to us at FBN that there are many imitators out there, all working night and day to challenge the unique market niche occupied by FBN.

In Thailand, do they call the oldest Simpson child "Baht"?

TED--

...you have taken the early lead in December's "I did the least with the most effort" award.

I heartily applaud Svejk's precise but ultimately pointless endeavor. I, too, am perhaps in the running. I have just spent a great deal of time trying to figure out how to trade currency options. The effort required was considerable, I say in all modesty, and I still have no idea how it's done. No chains, can't figure out what the strike letter should be, confusing expiries, surprising contract sizes. If you're looking for a profitless way not to be able to short the yen, I recommend:

phlx.com

And if anybody can figure it out... Well, we here at S&L are stumped.

Janice

Humbly report, TED, speaking of totaly worthless posts on History, tomorrow is your first SI anniversary!

Happy SI birthday to you . . .

As expected, you haven't changed since your SI post #1:

Many thanks for that, and much much much more,
