No I did not hear that, but I'm sure Paul Harvey will mention it. That reminds me of a golf book I once read,"Swing easy-hit hard", good contact is the key to us duffers. IMO
toonces,
If you draw a support line, it looks like this market bounced. Now after saying that, we will have to wait 'til next week and see if, we in fact do go up.
Ya know, tomorrow is Friday and if we are up, that just might be setting us up for next {(run up) uh-hum} up turn.
toonces,
Anne-Marie you are probaly the smartest one on this board, but we will still play our silly games, waiting for the right one
Rheeman;
You are the chart man, doesn't this look like we hit support and are heading up? I hope, I hope.

Old Age Fun.
Nothing like a weird sense of humor to make the week wonderful!!!
Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make
their days interesting. Thought you might like to see what happened
to one retiree last week.
I went to the store the other day. I was only in there for about 5
minutes. When I came out there was a city cop writing out a parking
ticket.
I went up to him and said, "Come on, buddy, how about giving a guy a
break?"
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi.
He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn
tires. So I called him a piece of horse shit.
He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the
first.
Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20
minutes. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.
I didn't give a shit. My car was parked around the corner.
I try to have a little fun each day. It's important at my age.
THE LONELY LITTLE BRAIN CELL
Once upon a time there was a female
brain cell which by mistake
happened to end up in a man's head.
She looked around nervously but it
was all empty and quiet.
"Hello?" she cried, but no answer.
"Is there anyone here?" she cried a
little louder, but still no answer.
Now the female brain cell started to
feel alone and scared and
yelled at the top of her voice
"HELLO, IS THERE ANYONE HERE?"
Then she heard a very faint voice from
far, far away......................................
"We're down here ."

Thank you.
Ya know, I just came from the RB boards and they are a real close second to "the zoo". It's good to get an honest answer instead of a lot of spam and pump & junk.
Rheeman;
This was from another board:
"It more and more smells like a sucker's rally lasting till Friday noon with qqq 37 as a top. What bothers me is that it is too obvious."
What is your take, keep in mind this is the end of the month.

The Word has gone out to the surfing world.
There are 50-foot waves at the coast today, which means that the Men Who Ride Mountains surfing contest is on for tomorrow at Mavericks, the most famous big-wave surf spot in the world. Every winter they hope for just the right conditions -- waves, wind, tides -- to come together and produce perfectly formed waves the size of six-story buildings. (Some years it never happens.) There are maybe 30 people on earth who are good enough to ride these waves and live, and they watch online for updates from Jeff Clark, the guy who named Mavericks and first surfed it 20 years ago.
Clark put out the word this morning that conditions should be perfect tomorrow, and surfers in Australia, Hawaii, South Africa and everywhere else are right now throwing things in suitcases and sprinting for the airport.
Should be an incredible show.
Rheeman;
I tightened it up a bit. I think it found support (I hope, I hope).

From Eternity to Here!!!
The Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida has put up a very
interesting Java applet on their site. It begins as a view of the Milky Way
Galaxy viewed from a distance of 10 million light years and then zooms into
towards Earth in powers of ten of distance. 10 million, to one million, to
100,000 light years and so on and then when it finally reaches a large Oak
tree leaf. But that is not all . It zooms into the leaf until it reaches
the level of the quarks viewed at 100 attometers.

This is a fantastic representation of how magnificent the Universe is and
how vastly infinite it is both in the macroscopic and the microscopic
level.
Osama Bin Laden Detected in Pakistan's Northwest, AFP Says
Feb. 22 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. and U.K. forces have detected al- Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in northwestern Pakistan, near the Afghanistan border, Agence France-Presse reported citing a report in London's Sunday Express newspaper.
Bin Laden and as many as 50 supporters were ``north of the town of Khanozai and the city of Quetta,'' the newspaper reported, citing an unidentified ``U.S. intelligence source,'' the news agency said. Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar is believed to be with bin Laden, the newspaper said, AFP reported.
The leader of al-Qeada, which has been blamed for the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, moved 240 kilometers (150 miles) from the south to the Toba Kakar mountains about one month ago, the Sunday Express said, AFP reported. A U.S. defense department spokesman declined to comment on the report, AFP said.
The area is under surveillance from a satellite while forces await orders, the newspaper said in its early Sunday edition, AFP reported. Bin Laden's whereabouts had been discovered from ``a combination of CIA paramilitaries and special forces, plus image analysis by geographers and soil experts,'' the newspaper reported, AFP said.

Report claims bin Laden 'cornered'
US and British special forces have cornered Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in a mountainous area in north-west Pakistan, near the Afghanistan border, the Sunday Express newspaper reports.
Quoting "a US intelligence source," it said bin Laden and "up to 50 fanatical henchmen" were inside an area 16 kilometres wide and deep "north of the town of Khanozai and the city of Quetta".
"He is boxed in," the unidentified source was quoted by the tabloid as saying, adding that US special forces were "absolutely confident" that he could not escape.
The source says bin Laden moved into the area "in the desolate Toba Kakar mountains," about one month ago from another area 240 kilometres to the south, the newspaper said.
On Thursday, General Richard Meyers, chairman of the US joint chiefs of staff, said US forces were engaged in "intense" efforts to capture bin Laden, but held back from saying where he might be hiding.
"There are areas where we think it is most likely he is, and they remain the same," General Meyers said, who was speaking to reporters in Washington.
"They haven't changed in months," he said.
Asked whether the Al Qaeda leader was believed to be in Pakistan, the General said, "don't know that - we think in that border region somewhere, we don't know where it is precisely".

Promised land
Bill Clinton, Al Gore and George W. Bush all died and found
themselves standing on the other side of
the Jordan River, looking across at the Promised Land.
The Archangel Michael was standing on the other side and shouted
over to the three surprised Americans,
"Contrary to what you have been taught, each of you will have to wade
across the Jordan River." As Michael saw their perplexed looks he
reassured
them by saying, "Don't worry. You will sink only proportionally according
to
your sins on earth. The more you have sinned, the more you will sink
into the water."
The three American sages of political lore looked at one another,
trying to determine who shall be the first brave soul to cross the Jordan
River.
Finally George W. Bush volunteered to go first. Slowly, he began to
wade out into the river, and slowly the water began to get higher and
higher, reaching to his waist.
George began to sweat, thinking that all of his sins were coming back to
haunt him. He was beginning to wonder if he would ever see the other
side. Finally, after what seemed liked an eternity,
he began to emerge on the river's far bank.
As he ascended the other side he looked behind him to see which one
of the other brave souls was coming next. A look of surprise registered
on his face as he saw Al Gore was
almost in the middle of the river, with only his
ankles barely touching the water.
He turned to Michael and exclaimed, "I know Al Gore. I know him
well enough to know that he has sinned much, much more than that!"
Archangel Michael replied,
"He's standing on Clinton's shoulders!"
Toward the end of the golf course, Dave somehow managed to hit his ball
Into the woods finding it in a patch of pretty yellow buttercups. Trying to get
His ball back in play, he ended up thrashing just about every buttercup in
the patch.
All of a sudden . . . POOF! In a flash and puff of smoke, a little old
Woman appeared. She said, "I'm Mother Nature! Do you know how long it took me
to make those buttercups? Just for that, you won't have any butter for your
popcorn the rest of your life; better still; you won't have any butter for
your toast for the rest of your life... as a matter of fact, you won't have any
butter for anything the rest of your life!"
THEN POOF! She was gone.
After Dave got hold of himself, he hollered for his friend, Fred. "Fred,
where are you?"
Fred yells back, "I'm over here, in the pussy willows."
Dave yells back... "DON'T SWING, FRED!!! For the love of God, DON'T
SWING!!!"
A father watched his daughter playing in the garden. He
smiled as he reflected on how sweet and innocent his little
girl was. Suddenly she just stopped and stared at the
ground. He went over to her and noticed she was looking at
two spiders mating.
"Daddy, what are those two spiders doing?" she asked.
"They're mating," her father replied.
"What do you call the spider on top, Daddy?" she asked.
"That's a Daddy Longlegs." Her father answered.
"So, the other one is Mommy Longlegs?" the little girl asked.
No," her father replied. "Both of them are Daddy Longlegs."
The little girl thought for a moment, then took her foot and
stomped them flat. "Well, that might be OK in Massachusetts but
we're not having any of that shit in Texas!
