WOW!! Nice bowling there Ut. I am brewing some beer and transferring other beer to the secondary carboy. Will bottle tomorrow and again in about a month. Getting the 20 gallons or so ready for the summer push. BBQ, pig roast and campfire in the back yard for the kids to make smores. Living in the country is great!!

Thanks for the site, the cast and Master Talk. With some good fortune meeting my hurdles in the new FA job I may still make Chicago with profits in trading.

Thanks also to all of you on the blog, what a great way top learn. Oh, and Jeff, you have a relation from Cali named Eric who was in the 82nd Airborne 92-94?

Jason in Oregon

nice!

That was funny! I was looking at the pics thinking "wow, Jeff, how bout them shorts". Amber must not have been home to help pick the outfit!!

I think Eric missed his calling. Bowling is totally his thing!

Then I think - wow! how bout me checking out the blog on Saturday.....

Nice throw, Eric!

So, we have learned that tall men can't wear plaid shorts...or any man.

Thanks for the laughs!

How come I cant watch enough of Eric toss that ball down the lane? To be honest, Eric was actually having luck with that.

Jodi, I have tried for years to add my "input" to Jeffs wardrobe...however he has always been the eccentric type and my attempts have all been in vain. *sigh*

Dont be fooled, not only did the Marketcast fall short of beating us, they didnt' even come close. Kind of like the Warriors beating the Jazz........

Go Jazz.
(your so quiet about that these days)

Amber K

Wow!

Nothing like getting called out on your blog by your own wife! And taunting the man's TEAM too??

Nicely done, Amber.

Hey Eric,

If you throw the ball overhand, you might hit the pins outright!

Guys, Your balls are red and blue, and you only have one each. Does that mean something happened?

Nice!

Thanks for sharing...I think!

Thanks for reminding me why I follow the cast so closely. True talent, true style and excellent color coordination. blue, red but where's the white?

White balls...ah...that's what happened to the other two, they must have been scared off when the girls beat the pants off of the guys...and blue and red (bruised and battered) are what were left after all was said and done...!

Thanks for sharing with us. Amber, you're too funny. Like the spunk. I can see why Jeff married ya.


Have a great weekend.

I am shorting all companies who produce plaid shorts. Hold my drink....

Now I realize that "White men can't jump and Tall men can't bowl". I don't bowl much but my kids tell me that the goal is to hit the pins on a roll, not on the fly! Perhaps Eric should stick to throwing baseballs at pins during carnivals!! Or, get a Nintendo Wie to refine his bowling skills. I hope, for the sake of all of us that golf, that Eric sticks to Wie bowling.

So Jeff,
If that's your idea of great bowling attire, what does your golf outfit look like?

Hello everyone - long time reader, first time poster. I've been reading the blog for a couple of months now and really appreciate it and everyone's input.

I wanted to ask some of the people that are going through the Investools PHD course if they would comment on their own process for starting with Investools, and how they made the call to go all the way through the PHD program. I have completed the Masters material and am looking at upgrading to the PHD program very soon. Did anyone use any personal milestones before making the decision to upgrade - like obtaining a certain percentage return on your trading before upgrading, making back a specific portion of the Masters program costs, etc. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

Glad to see our future is in good hands. At least I hope that Eric had combined america's past time of lager and bowling before launching that roll. Fun was had by all.

Jeff, please tell me you did not get those shorts at Nordstroms or I will have to find a new place to shop. I will admit to doing the Eric bounce once in college after a very difficult finals week. Some were bouncing into other lanes but that was not me and they said it had something to do with calcualting bounce distance as we were all engineering students - their idea of fun I guess.

Amber, if he does get his clothes at Nordstroms they have personal shoppers that you can set Jeff up with. Believe me I have been down that road and it worked for both Pam and I.

Jeff,

Nice shorts. Not! Enough said.

Happy Monday Addicts!

Questions to the forum:

Do stocks go down on the payment of dividends?
a. Always
b. Most often
c. 50/50
d. Less often
e. All of the above

Should one be concerned with dividends when your option is OTM due to expire the coming month or a short term trade?

In the final month of an option, how far away from option expiration does the Ice Cube REALLY begin to melt, four weeks, three weeks, etc.? Is there a ballpark standard or since all option’s theta is different, is every option different? Is this something that I should test using the Black Kohler Calculator?

Have a great week everyone! I hope I can pay more attention this week during trading hours, however, I don’t think my job will permit it… at least it hasn’t lately.

John,
I wish we had had someone to ask before we purchased all 20,000 dollars worth of the program. I would recommend the Associate's program. I think that you can get all the education you need for 10,000 dollars. The last 10,000 was a waste of money as far as me and my husband are concerned. So my advice is to listen to all the trading rooms, start trading (slowly), listen to Master's Talk, Market Cast, read books, read the blog and save yourself 10,000.

If I can be of any more help, let me know.

Randall and Michelle

BIDU!

Gezundhite.
