Whither Wednesday ?

Nice alliteration, no ?

Ms. Market had to dance some odd tunes for some drunken beefers yesterday, as they decided in their infinite wisdom [ not! ] to hit the Nazz in the afternoon with a bear raid. Their antics are really getting old. For months all we've seen is drunken beefers pounding each other, sometimes rushing the bar to buy groups of stocks, sometimes rushing out of the saloon in panic. Meanwhile, the US economy, ex Wall Street induced panic in some debt markets, is perking along as proven by non-financial earnings for Q4. At some point this will resolve itself as so much stock is slowly ending in the hands of real buyers on these endless dips caused by the beefer brawling.

Doing nothing now, except I will try to sell some more gold today if I can get close to $900/oz.

And Hillary's campaign machine is running out of oil as she suffers from lack of that crucial element, viz., votes. Obama crushed her in DC, MD and VA. The MD and VA margins were quite shocking, as he won by over 20 pts. So she might last a few more weeks, but without some miracle, she will lose.

And that brings us to the words of the day :-))

Word of the Day #1 - "veracity" - noun [$10] - this card in my word file dates from my high school days over 35 years ago.
Veracity means 1. truthfullness, honesty; 2. accuracy
Sentence: The fundamental problem that Hillary has in seeking voter support is that her inherent lack of veracity is now widely recognized and accepted.

Word of the Day #2 - "hermeneutic" - adj. [$10]
Hermeneutic means interpretive, explanatory.
Sentence: #1 - This blog seeks to provide hermeneutic reasons for the stock markets' seeming random motion. #2 - The sentence I used to show the meaning of veracity is also a hermeneutic example of why Hillary is losing this contest. ;-)

Gosh, what will I use for material for my sentences when Hillary is out of the Presidential contest ? ;-)

NASA Mistakenly Beams Dead Heads for Obama Concert into Deep Space

by Dood Abides

NASA deep space array antennae hacked preempting Beatles' "Across the Universe"


Pasadena, CA (UPSI) - An embarrassed NASA JPL spokesperson early this morning admitted that they had apparently been hacked last night. Their planned transmission of the Beatles famous "Across the Universe" into deep space was preempted by a live feed from San Francisco of the Grateful Dead's resurrection concert in support of Senator Barack Obama's presidential campaign. The concert in its entirety left the outer fringes of the solar system within hours of it's transmission late last night.
"We strongly suspect that this may have been an inside job," stated NASA head of security Dewey Tazem. "When you have thousands of disgruntled scientists upset over seven years of political suppression, things are bound to happen. No one is talking right now, but we will get to the bottom of it. We are in communication with the White House, and we have been authorized to use "extreme interrogation techniques" if needed."

"I was disappointed when I couldn't get tickets," waxed Ima Trippen, a longtime Grateful Dead fan and Obama supporter from Seattle, "but I found out that this was going to happen over the Internet and tuned in. The sound quality was incredible! So much better than a lot of the bootleg stuff that I used to listen to in my day. It was like you were really there, and you could feel the electricity. It's like the kids nowadays say, Obama so rules!"

A NASA spokesperson who wished to remain anonymous admitted that there was probably very little damage done by the prank in the eyes of whatever beings may exist in deep space."Where's the harm in the fact that "Truckin" has taken the place of "Across the Universe" in a long strange trip."

waterboarding a dead head scientist?

ROFL

Mikey said...

mern, re the job, that would be good news, hope you get it.

Mikey said...

mfl59, your name came up a few days ago in the other room, the members were saying how a lot of people have left.

mern said...

"I AM TRIPPEN"

did somone name there kid that?

"I was disappointed when I couldn't get tickets," waxed Ima Trippen, a longtime Grateful Dead fan and Obama supporter from Seattle

this story cant be real, or cant it?

mern said...

how many lemmings left in da tank?

hal still there?

Mikey said...

been running about 70 - 75 members, i think we topped out around 130

mern said...

ya 103ish was the top.

hal?

thought it wud be closer to 50.

about 50 of em like big sue, ksh, dooz, eric started there own site for free.

u need an inviation from one of the members.

needless to say bud and i r not welcome, not that i care one bit.

i still talk to eric at least once a week.

met dooz in south beach, he is a party animal

Bunkerman said...

To evaluate whether soccer is a "pussy" sport, one needs to look at an average minute's play. Soccer is guys/gals running aound in a field, maybe kicking a ball.

Rugby is guys tackling each other, grinding flesh in a scrum or ruck, etc.

Heck, basketball is mostly a pussy sport, too until one goes to the hoop or plays inside.

Tennis is more pussy than soccer. Golf is ultra-pussy.

I guess soccer is less pussy than baseball.

Vs. rugby, all above are pussy, even football (pussies wear pads).

QED. ;-))))))))))

Bunkerman said...

uh oh aliens will think Earth is full of Deadheads :-))

Bunkerman said...

sheesh, all those oldtimers left Rev ?

Mikey said...

hal's back from his hiatus

gecko's back full time also

Mikey said...

yes bunkerman, except for ksh, the other names that mern mentioned have left

mern said...

ksh is the "merc" room too. i think he doesnt pay to be in the tank. he used to be a moderator.

did hal leave yet?

big sue used her cancer as an excuse to bounce.

basically she hated people like me and bud. and then got really upset when revy started spewing all his political beliefs in the room.

the merc room, they only talk stocks. no joking, no politics, no religion.

Youre all pussies..heres me and Jimmy Caan playin a mans sport

mern said...

bman u r grossly underestimating the most popular sport in the world.

u shin shin guards, that is it. also cleats, which can really hurt other people.

the rugby ive watched is usually 20 guys in a pile, humping each other, with an occasional burst of speed when some goes out of the pile with the ball.

in any of your rugby experiences have u seen anyone die?

have u seen mega riots break out and police having to come to make peace?

have u seen bone piercing through skin, in the legs, arms and hands?

have u ever seen a goalie put people in the hospital, time after time on break aways? (that was our goalie growing up, he was the best in state of pa, until he went to his first dead show at age 15)

on corner kicks he wud use both fists and shocker punch players. they wud be knocked out cold. the refs wudnt do anything becuase it wud look like he was going for the ball. but the second the ref wasnt looking he wud turn around and LOL. he brokes kids jaws.

were u ever in a pile and someone grabbed your nut sack and twisted them as hard as possible. that happened to me, and i got and leveled the dude and got a 3 game suspension from suncoast in 95.

not too mention u typically have to sprint about 5 to 6 miles in 90 minutes.

i have also had 1 very bad heat stroke.

in hs r football team wud watch r 2 a days in august and ask how we did what we did.

well we were ranked 6th in the nation, and they stunk.

id say the game is a tad more violent then rubber knife fighting with lipstick.

;-)



here comes da rocket, this is gonna be gud. he better take the 5th!

mern said...

wow petite slammed the rocket.

they r best friends.

i guess andy did not want to go to jail.

rog clearly wants to give jail a chance. WHAT AN IDIOT!

Frosty said...

Bunkerman...GS trading 177 this morning...they haven't dropped any shoes...in fact, they are boot stomping the beefers...first on $100 oil and first to the eco down trend card...they should be knocking the cover off the ball...your thesis should find you in bed with the devil.

mfl59 said...

GS really acting wrong...wonder whats up there...a beefer getting gutted by its own beefer, perhaps...

Bunkerman said...

I can't bear thinking to buy GS. It would be like contributing to Hillary.

mern said...

knoblach admitted his guilt.

rocket is going down!

Bunkerman said...

Rugby has all that punching, kicking, grabbing balls, getting stomped, too. But maybe less since that stuff gets retaliation bigtime in rugby since the ref can't see much in a ruck.

It's easy to stomp a bleepster's face in a ruck with your cleat.

mern said...

so mcnamee looks to be certainly telling the truth.

mern said...

maybe there is a god!

im 95% sure i got this job.

MAN THAT WUD BE SWEETER THAN YOHOO

and it sounds like they offering me 70 to start, plus bonus.

now what the hell is a paid vacation?

u dont work and get paid? is that possible?

mern said...

clemens admitted his wife used HGH.

mern said...

oops that was andy p

that is very damaging to rocket

Bunkerman said...

And I think in jobs like yours-to-be, they even insist that you take the paid vacation.

Good luck

mern said...

rog is headed to jail!

no ifs ands or buts

mern said...

ty!

now i just need to pass the DT.

ive lost more wieght, and most of the toxins shud be flushed after my pussy soccer practice tonite

lol

mern said...

andy "misremembers"

ROFL

mfl59 said...

I guess Clemens forgot to take the class on how to lie convicingly....Professor G Costanza-the most prominent scholar in that field...

mfl59 said...

misremembers...lmaooooooooooo

mern said...

" i dont remember"

keep digging that grave, rog

mern said...

mfl

"its only a lie, if u believe it"

george costanza

LOL!

Bunkerman said...

I wonder how the recession mongers are explaining away that retail sales number this AM ? Wasn't the housing-mortgage mess supposed to lead to consumer weakness ? But a gain is a gain, not a decline. Oh well, I suppose they will just ignore it. Ostriches. sheesh !

mern said...

wow rocket is blantantly lying.

he says i never talked to mac about HGH, and then admits he did twice.

D'oh!

Frosty said...

rocket needs a new mouth peice...obvious railroad job...this is a clear set up.

mern said...

u think rog is telling the truth?

frosty

mern said...

his best friend, andy, set him up?

mern said...

mac strikes me as someone who hid the truth, then let some out, then let some more out. and eventually spilled his guts.

i dont understand y they dont ask rog for his DNA?

mern said...

mac say knoblach, andy and rog did it. chuck and andy agreed. also andy said rog took it.

rogs wife used it, and a bad reaction and rog didnt investigate what HGH was?

he must not love his wife very much or he is lying.

u figure it out

mern said...

frankly it seems like the dems dont belive rog, but the repubs do.

thats a shocker. rog is from texas land of the elephants.

i wonder how much he paid some of these guys on the "moral right"?

mern said...

i guess doctor taylor is setting him up too?

come on!

Bunkerman said...

you guys are listening to that crap ? I have it on mute and almost can't bear that.

Frosty said...

W will pardon rocket on the way out the door if they do railroad him...texas bro's indeed.

mern said...

im bored cleaning the house. i got it on 6 tvs.

this is stupid that the govt even gets involved, but its on.

certainly better than "all my children"

u right frosty. dubya will probably do that.

thank god a moderate elephant is gonna get the ticket this summer.

mccain is honest. pro choice, aka pro death, which is consistent with killing people in iraq.

as howard stern said "a kill is a kill, is a kill"

after seeing the saudi banning valentines day.

again, y not just turn that entire area of the world into glass? give the jews New Orleans, let them rebuild the dykes, and turn that town from sin city into a technoligal powerhouse?

how many mayflower boats r there?

:-)

mern said...

the most sickening thing is if u pay attention this is totally bipartisan.

the elephants love the rocket

the donkeys believe mac

WTF is up with that?

i dont trust the elephants or the moral right. those r the guys tapping thier feet at me in public restrooms.

the donkeys dont pull that crap. they hire male hookers, admit it, and celebrate it. as it shud be, if u r gay.

"not that there is anything wrong with that?"

"my father is gay"

COOOOOOOstanza

Frosty said...

a decent retail number and the market, according to cnbc, is in rally mode because players anticipate a soft landing...oh my...has nothing to do with ops expo and beefers running naked into firday having rolled out to march begining last thursday...futres gaps above look to be magically filled this week, ...the RTH holders failed to get the rally memo...Rocket should take his act to the cnbc news desk.

mern said...

wow another elephant crushing mac

mern said...

let me take a wild guess here

diane will crush rog

Bud said...

you ever notice how john mccain has that stupid and awkward smile after he thinks he said somethin funny?

frosty reminds me of him

he thinks he's really clever and witty and funny


PS......at least nancy pelosi respects the GI. scumbag john mccain wants to kill them in the 100year war

mern said...

if it was possible i have reached a new level of disgust for both the donkeys and elephants.

we need to make glass in the middle east and washington dc.

freaking kill em all! every single politician can kiss my shaven down hairy bean bag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mern said...

bob lee noticed the questioning went right down party lines.

Bud said...

who the heck is lisa lampnelli anyway? prolly a starlet for the 1950s.....frosty sure likes to go back

Frosty said...

Bunkerman...Bud is picking on me.

mern said...

lisa is a hilarious comedian that does all the comedy central roasts.

she is a self confirmed pig. ie, u cud hit it, bud.
