Mohan: Are we going to have a Gala in which we will grant "Mohan's" (a la Oscar's) in each category? We'd better add some categories here, or the party will be awefully short. Here are some of my nominees:

Best in macroeconomics trends: Tekgk, Sankar,

Best at "catching falling knives", Razorbak, Mazzarella,

and few categories for which I have no specific nominees:

Best at forecasting crashing stock (needs to meet at least a fall of 60% from time of posting within six month fro three stock to be nominated).

Best at forecasting Phoenix stocks (needs to meet the at least a double from the time of posting in three stock).

Best verbal pugilist: Joseph G., Taste Like Chicken, Riley G.

How about best Hyper?

Now let's have a party

Mohan, I cry fowl.

By including the word 'Person' in your nomination category, you have automatically biased the judges against those who may be of a different (but far superior) species.

Do you think it's easy getting by in today's humano-centric world? Do you know how many times I've been turned down for jobs because I checked the 'Chicken' box under 'Race' on the job application?

Same for all the aptitude tests. They are specielly biased. Those stupid analogy questions...
Glove is to hand, as sock is to....?
What the heck is a glove? How am I supposed to know these things?

NOT FAIR!
NOT FAIR!
NOT FAIR!

**** MARKET/ENTERTAINMENT FACTOID ****
A sequel to the movie, "Wall Street", was scheduled to be released this month. In the sequel, Charlie Sheen returns to his role as a young, aggressive trader one step ahead of the rest. The movie's release was canceled when it was discovered that Charlie Sheen can't act.

Mohan, one name not on the list but should be is EARLIE. He may not post as often as others but the content of his posts is exceptional. I usually agree with him perhaps that is why I like him so much. He has been on the MU thread lately. Mike

I'll nominate Rick Harmon for Best Technology
Guru, biotech division. He's not into active guruhood,
though... you usually just have to follow what he's doing.

MOHAN>>>>>>Best stock picker of the Year
A person with uncanny ability to pick stocks at the right time and sell at the right
time.
My nominations: Terry Davis, Ken Sanders, Ibexx, Leo F., >>>>>>>

You've forgiven me for not selling MEMC(WFR) at 50 like you told me! Funny, I haven't forgiven myself<GGG>. I must decline your nomination as a stock picker( I don't want to be like the guy who received a badge as the most HUMBLE person in church only to loose it when he pinned it on, he was no longer humble).

<<<<<SI's Best Funny/Witty Person
My nominations: Ken Sanders, Taste Like Chicken, Jumper, Michael D. Burke>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I like this one, and if nominated, I will campaign vigorously against my worthy opponents, CHICKEN and JUMPER and I promise everyone who votes for me a CHICKEN in every pot( you'll have to arrange to get Jumped on your own). Who is this guy Michael D. BURKE. Oh! I remember, He is the jerk that doesn't know how to turn on a computer. That is FUNNY. He wins hands down( as in put or putz)

Would you believe that I'm rooting for the VOLS against NEBRASKA!We finally agree on something! The losers get 2 weeks in TAXACHUSETTS and the winners get 1 week<G>. Did you see how the Gators took pity on Paterno. So unlike Steve. I think he had his second string in for half the game while Paterno had his in the entire game.I used to live in OHIO so I had mixed emotions about Seminoles creaming the Buckeyes. HAPPY NEW YEAR
