Howdy Mooonman, it's great to see your writing again! And your split list is terrific, it's just what I need to calm down today while watching the ticker soap opera of GNET and waiting to hear the reason why Wunnerfitz! Got shares, got powder, and caution along with a nod to the future while enjoying the present is Key! Nose to the grindstone working the dayjob; boy oh boy do I know THAT one! The stockstuff is hard and without pals posts surely I would have quickly stopped doing it from boredom... "I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends" and I prize the good company as much or even more than the wealth of knowledge about techs, nets, stocks, and how the market works and flows that my pals have so generously gifted me. You guys make it possible for me to stick with it!! Otherwise I'd be so wrung-out, haggard, and bored! The dayjob is what takes so much of my working time, and those hours are long especially counting in the stockstuff time....well, we all know that one! That's why so many of my posts are from the wee hours of the a.m.; either that, or I'm working the dayjob in the wee hours of the a.m. preparing for daytimes I want to be online, on top of the market. I nap in the evening when my daughter is out, if she's home I stay up. So work screeches to a halt when the company of my daughter is happening, tas she's the reason and inspiration for my odyssey through these fields of non-artistic endeavors. About 3 years ago, I swept out the cobwebs from parts of my brain (like math and legals and business letters and pure numbers business, not just sales) that hadn't seen the light of day for many years; when I realized I was making as much money doing boring p/t office work from home as I was making while having more fun a teacher! But the reality-based choice was clear, and fate intervened as well. I was slow at it when it began, too.
