Ya gotta think that at these values the the big boys are once again scooping up and grinning from ear to ear. Even with earnings downgrades these are stellar values compared to the DOW in general, much less the techs.

Finally a day that looks to end on a positive note !

Bought some MDCO and MIND today; MDCO based on being close to what I feel is a bottom and possessing better upside than most drillers at these levels. MIND as a pure value and and on what I feel will be a nice earnings surprise coming up. Missed FGII on a limit order trying to re-capture the intra-day low; I'm all most happy I missed it, as this of all stocks deserved some buying support if we are starting to climb out of this tailspin.

Shorts would have to be nuts to carry over the weekend; I hope we will not be facing the same short selling on Monday... sure getting tired of those 2%. 5%. 3% loss days... got my butt kicked this week.

Big Dog; you can appreciate this - I'm gonna be doing some ''real'' dog training and real beer drinking this weekend ...

This week I felt like I was in the batters box with an 0-2 count, 2 outs, bottom of the ninth, facing Randy Johnson 99 mph fastballs and having to use a ''fungo'' bat (test for true sports fans) with my only chance being; ''fouling'' a couple off & hoping for a walk.... - that's what it's like holding strong in the face of $12 crude and massive short selling...

PS; ...think I might go to church Sunday; as I definitely ''re-discovered'' Jesus.
