<If these spammers would learn to use new ways of posting>

I would liken it to "bolier room" antics but some of those guys are excellent at selling stock. I've met Bob Brennan (First Jersey Securities) on occasion because he is an alumnus of my high school. It's easy to see how he could have trained a sales force that could sweet-talk people out of their last dime. He has a knack for public speaking that has to be seen to be believed.

So the spam posts don't even have boiler room quality.

I would love to play a round of golf today. But I think I'm getting too much sun. I can even see it in my post it's as if I am posting with a headache sometimes. If my wife tells me I should wear a hat one more time she's not going to make it to her anniversary.

The lack of action on Globex makes me wonder about today. I am guessing the pits are waiting to see how much was exercised last night. If it was a small exercise then the spoo may blow by 12000. Otherwise we could have a gap down open.

Ah, heck. I may go out to the course myself.

Hey Electric, how are you?
I see you're using a few anti-spam tactics <<<g>>>.

As I said to you yesterday (but didn't have time to post), I spent Monday through Wednesday in the hospital with my girlfirend. She was rushed in on Monday morning and needed her appendix removed and some work done on her one kidney. She's back home now recouperating. Each week brings me a new adventure this year.

Anything new in your sites with the current rally?
BTW, congrats on those DELL calls you bought way back when. You spent the extra $$$ for the extra time and it's worked great.

Now that I'm back to work and caught up I need to find some new stocks to monitor. Some of my favorites from last year aren't quite my cup of tea this year.

Take care.
