don't misunderstand... I'm in the game. I just stay away from the tulips. They're dangerous. Vast riches await those who get lucky and buy internuts near the bottom (was that last yr or yesterday?) as well as riches to those who short at the top (last Tues or Jan yr 2000). Point is nobody knows w/ those things, might as well play the lottery. There's no fundamentals to drag them down... just gravity, and who knows when that will kick in. I prefer to pound on companies like G and KO that can and are disappointing, and go long stocks nobody wants like Japanese co's and gold stocks.

IMO, internuts are for suckers both long and short.

BTW-- the last time I saw something being "built" w/ the speed that these internet trash stocks are adding mkt cap was w/ manufactured housing... real homerun long term, solid strcutures there (G)

To build quality... takes time. Time that most bulls these days won't wait around for. That's why we know we are near a top.

Happy Girl,

The parachute does not always open, but at least you get one more chance with the reserve parachute. Most fatalities result from lack of altitude awareness.

How high are you?
