I've been performing "Vealies" the past few weeks, getting my MF's cash down from the 40% level. I'm so bored that I'm looking straight into the face of a "Strewie". My SUPX stock looked like a good AIM candidate but its been flat to slightly downhill since I acquired it and I'm bored so I think I'll sell it and find something else to replace it with. I fully expect that I will be reporting this as a "Strewie" soon. To take us off topic, there is one other word that my wife and I have developed. I used to start saying something to my wife when I thought I had my wife's attention. I would go on for about 5 to 10 minutes and she would say "What did you say, I wasn't listening." I used to repeat it all and I was left with the feeling that the original speech was of so little consequence that it wasn't worth the effort of repeating it. Now I just say "Splink". It means what I said was an utter waste of time and to repeat it would be even a bigger waste of time. Without "Splink" we could have hours of inane conversation. We're dotty enough. (The word is nonsense. It came from an episode of "Mad About You". It's the sound that Paul's father would make when he dropped ice into his drink.) Splink, Splonk the Spelunker from Sparbach
