Tomasino, - Che cosa fai? Mi piace i scarzi italiani... - Been using 'AIM' methodologies for several years but read the book a little more than a year ago.. see some of the same stuff in Cassidy's "It's When You SELL That Counts." - Sold half my LSI at 27 1/2...still have not triggered a buy back yet..probably since I haven't sent an order in.. - Have sold all of my DIGI before the announcement (still a good portion at a loss) and may get back in since the mgt change is most significant IMO... may actually be a chance of merger/acquisition.. - I think a big part of AIM success is removing any emotion from the sell side of the equation...I have been investing for a little less than ten years and am far from pro but I quickly recognized (ie read about) the need to remove emotional attachment from investing (and especially speculating)... - What are you DIGI / LSI plans? - v/r Tony

senor cheesey---the world has accepted into it's vocabulary, the term "vealies" to signify a non-trade in the management of an AIM directed account. congratulations and all that other crap. now, on to more important matters. we need another term. one that signifies utter stupidity. one that recognizes the lack of clear thinking, the lack of discipline. one that recognizes emotional, short sighted decisions that one regrets as soon as one has made them. a term that will instantly identify an event in ones management of ones finances as being one to be held up to immediate and deserved ridicule. something that may make any one of us stop and pause to consider the ramification of knee jerk reactions. a term that when applied to us individually will be reason enough to hang ones head in shame as we suffer the scorn of others who will just tsk-tsk as they acknowledge the errors of our ways. something simple, something easy to remember but yet something that will remind us for the rest of our years of the errors of our ways. how about a "kaufman?" nah, too ethnic! i know---how about "strew?" as in combining "steve" and "screwed-up." no, i got it---a STREWIE! yep, that's it for me. if anyone else has any better ideas, you're welcome to submit them. but for now, it's a "STREWIE!" steve in socal p.s.---yes, i had a WONDERFUL week! the padded walls in the room i'm now in are quite comforting. Excuse me, it's time for more prozac.
