Funny - of course, I'm not poor ole MST2000 anymore. ROFLMAO.

With apologies to Thoedore Suess Guessel:

The sky was all rainy,
there was nothing to do
So I logged onto Schwab,
and Ameritrade too
Went short with the left hand
wrote calls with the right
And I asked Auric Goldfinger
to show me the light
He told me to watch
for a fearsome "death spiral"
to cover at 4
and to catch something viral
you see he is just
not a generous guy
he likes to make insults
sharp sticks in my eye
but why should I mind
cause while Auric's cavorting
I've learned everything
I can learn about shorting
Spread rumors, distortions
about pumping and dumping
and the price will go down
now won't that be something
but what's this I see
on the screen to the right
the price keeps on rising
it soon will pass NITE
yeah that was the pig
that he told me would crash
at 33.50
oh lord help this pass
and now I am shorting
a new pig at 7
I'll cover it soon
once it drops from 11
oh what can I do
if this pig doesn't drop
I wish I'd remembered
to put in a stop"
