Random Thoughts

Just a few random thoughts:

1. If you think yesterday's stock sell-off was a "little correction," then just wait until Israel nukes Iran's WMD sites later this year. I'd think about bumping up the cash percentage in your protfolio to be ready for the real sell-off.

2. Investing is a lot like driving to work through rush hour traffic, except that you win at investing when everybody tries to merge into your lane at once.

3. I could care less about Anna Nicole or Brittany Spears. I hope Brittany finds peace, but would rather she do it in private. I am sick of the media obsession with those two.

4. I love the national guard, but "one weekend a month, 2 weeks a year," is total bullshit. Even my junior enlisted guys put in more than that.

5. Cheating has always been a part of NASCAR. Just accept the rulings when you are caught and stop whining. Trying to get an edge in qualifying is in no way the same issue as steroids in other pro sports. A lot of commentators have been claiming otherwise.

6. Playboy Radio is pretty funny, but getting sex advice from porn stars and desperate second tier models is probably not really going to help much.

7. You can slide really far across a gently sloped field covered in 4" of ice, at least if you can manage to avoid any of the sparsley spaced out trees and bushes.

8. You can have some really odd conversations by reading a Dungeon's and Dragon's game book in a public place.

9. Getting slapped on the love handles can cause enough pain to make your knees buckle (thanks wifey).

10. Kids always think "I didn't mean to..." is enough to get them off. Come on little troopers, you either perform the task to standard or not!! I don't care what you meant to do, it's the results that count, now assume the front leaning rest position!
