Howdy, Antoine! Brave man! Bravo!

*****

Hello, everyone, this is Antoine. He usually posts to the Myth thread and the Burke thread, and he knows a lot about stocks, the market, and investing in general. Plus which, he has a large number of WAV files in his repertoire, and knows a lot of funny jokes, and can quote poetry. An entertaining guy, in other words, if you don't mind his being a bear.

OK, Antoine, you can talk about anything. Except stocks. You can even talk about stocks, but not too much.

Give you a score card? I don't think so. I would probably say the wrong thing and insult someone. You have already met Rambi and X, they are regulars on the thread, and a lovelier pair of women I can't imagine. Intelligent, yet spicy and pungent at the same time.

You missed out on the gross-out contest, I won. Today is "nice things" day, but we seem to be deviating. (As usual).

Oh me! Me! I want to answer!
You know Coby. Now you know me.
You might have run into JFQUinnelly on the BK threads.
The only requirement --- and this may eliminate you, Antoine-- is that you own some really dumb bad stock. Which you hold regardless of reason. ANd that despite all evidence to the contrary, you are convinced will turn around and move from .12 to 157.00 one day. ANd then split. AND--- you have to be PROUD of it.
I own several of these, and that's why my name graces the thread.
Other than that, you can talk about anything you like. It helps to completely forget dignity and self-respect. If those are necessary to your image here, it's a problem. Just being seen here today may already have destroyed some of your credibility.
THe current subject seems to be WHY MY LIFE IS SO WONDERFUL TODAY. However yesterday, the topic was HOW TO DISPOSE OF A DEAD BODY.

I think you are extremely gracious and brave to stop in and say hello.
