Leo, funny, but these last rounds of cyber jousting have been quite fun for me, but winning is always more fun than losing, so I can see why you are growing tired of it. Three quick points before I prove you wrong again. First, I, like most people, don't have to open my mouth while typing, in fact, once you learn to read and write, you probably won't open yours while typing either. And I guess you have some experience in holding the cup, did you drop it a lot? I guess that's how you knew that the trick was in holding on tight. Don't think I'll ever need that advice either. And did you really find it entertaining and novel at first? I've always thought it quite distasteful and demeaning for both man and monkey - pathetic actually, but I can see how someone mentally challenged could find it amusing at first. I bet you even saved up all the coins for quite awhile before you had enough for your first investment! The only points you care to address are the least meaningful of any of the lies I've caught you in, but I'll work with them again, since you have had some trouble following them. (did you read them ten times like I told you too, little Leo?) 1. Yes I asked you for information about your investment strategy, and NO I never intended to use it for anything other than catching you in more lies. I don't seem to find any inconsistency there, and I've already stated it several times. 2. I referred to post #10 in my last response, noting that the stock dropped 5% after you first hyped it to me, and that you missed this 5% dip and bought higher earlier on the 27th. The market, is, after all, about timing, and I was simply pointing out that your timing was poor that day, you bought at 59 1/4 and if I had taken your advice, I would've lost that 5% as well. 3. I guess you are admitting your lies in all the other more important issues, like when you bought, sold, when you posted positive, and what the end results were. 4. I also noticed that you were "aggressively long" on Netscape in November, and posted so on the TXT thread. NSCP was then around 28 or so, and now it's a teenager and you say you're short. How much did you lose before you switched? You just keep picking the winners, huh Leo!! Still winning, smiling and honest as the day is long, Sam
