  1. Soooo whats the year ahead looking like for all the EXPERTS around here. Are we going up down left right , anyone making any money lately with all the crazy moves.

     

    I'm currently holding positions in a couple of steel stocks and airlines , thinking about getting a little USO . I've had a couple spectacular swing trades the past month and yesterday I bought NG at the open and sold it by 11:30 which basically paid my xmas shopping. Volatility is my friend, what say you tools.

  2. Whats the deal with adding an old box to my bedroom.....

     

    These new box's have the 2 lines coming in with the signal decoder dohicky on each line.

     

    I used to just split the line and watch tv in other room without paying extra fee. Anyway I have built 950 ft addition with new bedroom and want to use my old dvr dtv box in that room. Do I need to hook up another sat. dish to feed that box and pay the 5 bucks or can I just split one of the line's in and feed it that way . I'm looking for ideas from the master and thats you fez, what's your suggestion, have any ?

  3. I get your point, but when I pour my Count Chocula in the morning I just know one of these days the messiahs likeness wrapped in plastic is going to follow those tasty, chocolatey marshmellows.

     

    There's just something fundamentally wrong, not to mention unprofessional, with that.

     

    I wonder if Fathead is going to come out with a Barrack line. Wouldn't be surprised.

    I think I saw an Obama likeness in my burnt toast this morning ......damn i should have placed it on ebay.....

  4. Who would really be a better appointment to NY senator-Rudy Giuliani or Kennedy? of course the Dem. Governor can only pick those he can swing his cane at, so Rudy's out but really think about it.

    All depends on how much they're charging for the spot, and who's willing to pony up the cash to be called the junior senator from the great state of N.Y..

  5. "cool" as in "under fire" not "hip". He's too old for that.

     

    He's not smart? Really?

     

    He doesn't inspire confidence? Really?

    I guess if you consider the hiring of a pack of Liars and Criminals to continue running the nations financial system into the ground for the benefit of those that have stolen Trillions of Tax dollars, confidence inspiring, well I'd have to agree. Very intelligent and absolute genius move for Change. Seems that Mr. Wonderful is doing exactly what he's being told, hmmm, wonder if they muddied him up a bit with the gobernor?? :lol: :lol: :lol:

  6. Why is it Democrats b***h and moan about Republicans/President George Bush but when they get into office they do the same things that Republicans/George Bush do?

     

    2006 midterm elections the Democrats take control of the HOUSE and Senate yet do nothing different?

     

    2008 Barack "Change We Can Believe In" Obama is elected President and immediately appoints criminals to handle his economic and foreign policy issues?

     

    P.S. blzrul: You have serious personal issues well beyond politics & football.

    For the true knuckle draggers it is much better to be asss banged by Bill Clinton than it is by Bush... of course either way your bung hole ends up being swollen and rather full of puss, but what the hell at least it was Bill, next up Mr. Wonderful!

     

     

     

    Oh by the way, I fixed that for ya!

  7. Geithner IS the best possible choice for Treasury. What's your beef with him?

    Classic comment from someone that just doesn't get it. Of course the big O and his master's have most of America fooled, hence the lack of questioning regarding the Big O's adviser Bobby Rubin who is just another crook.

     

     

    From NY Times article on Citigroup:

     

    “The bank’s downfall was years in the making and involved many in its hierarchy, particularly Mr. Prince and Robert E. Rubin, an influential director and senior adviser.

     

    Citigroup insiders and analysts say that Mr. Prince and Mr. Rubin played pivotal roles in the bank’s current woes, by drafting and blessing a strategy that involved taking greater trading risks to expand its business and reap higher profits. Mr. Prince and Mr. Rubin both declined to comment for this article.

     

    When he was Treasury secretary during the Clinton administration, Mr. Rubin helped loosen Depression-era banking regulations that made the creation of Citigroup possible by allowing banks to expand far beyond their traditional role as lenders and permitting them to profit from a variety of financial activities. During the same period he helped beat back tighter oversight of exotic financial products, a development he had previously said he was helpless to prevent.

     

    And since joining Citigroup in 1999 as a trusted adviser to the bank’s senior executives, Mr. Rubin, who is an economic adviser on the transition team of President-elect Barack Obama, has sat atop a bank that has been roiled by one financial miscue after another.”

     

    Looks to me like Rubin was one of the ringleaders of the criminal gang at Citigroup. And now his proteges Geitner and Sumners will control the Treasury and likely the Fed before all is said and done. By the way, no one is arguing that something shouldn’t be done about Citigroup. The point is that rewarding Rubin and his cronies with total control over the fiscal and monetary policy of the US does not look like change any thinking person should believe in.

     

     

     

     

    As you can see this is just another pile of chit spewed on, We The People, as some sort of CHANGE WE CAN ALL BELIEVE IN!!! So go ahead and buy right into the scam that is Washington and GG Bernanke's beloved FED Banking system. Tell me again how Timmy boy Geithner is the best choice, unless of course you are saying best choice to Rob your ass blind, then I would have to agree.

     

     

     

     

     

    Some of the Tools around here just need to get up to speed, here ya go, I particularly enjoyed the 9-27-08 article. http://www.worldreports.org/news

  8. Some of you guy's may find this interesting.

    "Banks actually are lending at record levels. Their commercial and industrial loans, at $1.6 trillion in early November, were up 15% from a year earlier and grew at a 25% annual rate during the past three months, according to weekly Federal Reserve data. Home-equity loans, at $578 billion, were up 21% from a year ago and grew at a 48% annual rate in three months....The numbers point to one of the great challenges of the crisis. The credit crunch is surely real, but it is complex and not easily managed. Banks are lending, but they're also under serious strain as they act as backstops to a larger problem -- the breakdown of securities markets..The worst of the credit crisis is being felt not in banks but in financial markets..."

     

     

     

    Then again some folks around here think Timmy Geithner is a good choice from Obama. Same old chit.

  9. No, don't you see? It's only "beating a dead horse" when something positive happens. A lot of "fans" on this board are only happy when they can say things like "I told you McKelvin was a bust". People can fill the board with that nonsense but God forbid people fill the board with good things to say about the team. If we lose next week they'll all be happy 'cause then they will get to utter the sweetest words they can pass through their lips: "I was right".

    Sounds like you are a bit home sick? Come on admit it Fl. sucks, with the economy and everything might as well move home for all that Buff has to offer.

  10. Federal Health Board = Federal Reserve Board ...... Now Thats a recipe for success.

     

     

    Can't ya feel that dab, dab, dab, on your bung hole,........that would be some one applying vase-o-line. Well I guess some fellers like that, especially around here.

    :censored::thumbsup::thumbdown:

  11. Should you buy a $600,000 house with an income of $50,000? Should you even consider it?

     

    Should a mortgage broker even consider writing a mortgage in a situation like that?

     

    Wall Street has its culpability, sure, and Lewis is a very good writer who writes from a Wall Street perspective, but the Wall Street banks did not dance alone.

    Mortgage brokers were only doing what their wall st. masters taught them to do.

    As for my family, we bought 20 acres with free gas and a royalty check for 80,000 and I am finishing my addition, thank you very much. So in answer to your question, no I wouldn't try to buy a 600,000 house on 50,000 income. As for those that did, are you surprised that so many people haven't a clue about financing. Now it looks like the Fed's are going to go down the same road that WALL ST. has led them, check it out. As for D.C. Paulson, blow it out your ass some more, GENIUS. I'm not as shocked as you seem to be over wall st. finding so many suckers.

     

    http://mrmortgage.ml-implode.com/ 300 billion exotic mortgages available

     

     

    The failed $300 Billion Hope For Homeowners (H4H) program that the markets heralded when it was announced this summer is getting revamped. This is because it was a bad idea in the first place - only 100 applications have been submitted as of Oct 1st. Hear that?!? 100 applications. 100 freaking applications! Its no wonder why there is no faith in the solons actions.

  12. What the hell are you talking about?

     

    Anyway, I don't assume that Obama is lying about everything, but as he is a politician, I assume that he isn't telling the entire truth about everything, either. I know of NO political system where leaders are all telling and all truthful. If that's what you are looking for, who is the naive one here?

     

    My response was a simple, honest response to AD's question. If I have to choose between two people lying to me, I will usually take the smarter one, if I have a choice. Pretty simple, actually. However, I expect the Obama administration to be more transparent than the Bush administration. I would have also expected that from a McCain administration. Now, before "take everything to an extreme" crowd chimes in, I didn't say I expect it to be TOTALLY transparent, just more transparent. Believe it or not, I also expect that a McCain administration would be more transparent than a Hillary administration.

     

    Transparency isn't the only important thing, or even the MOST important thing. But, I do think this country needs more transparency at all levels of politics.

    Take a deep breath and hold, shouldn't take too long. Meanwhile I'll be laughing while the police state is expanding and your rights are vanishing into the dead of night, just like Bush. Can't wait for the 25 daily press release's telling me how wonderful and great the latest chit bag is . But hey he'd be a smart liar.
  13. I found this article to be an excellent read. It does go a bit too far in blaming Wall Street (versus the mortgagebrokers/consumers), but all in all it does a good job of explaining what has happened and truly how f*cked we are.

    Yea because all those mortgage brokers and home buyers designed all that funny money and swaps bla bla, they then forced wall st. to sign off on everything and decided not too pay, I get it. Sounds like the blame was placed right where it belongs.
