Hi Steve YTD,

+ 19.56% YTD so far as of 8/31/07. BPG,HMGP,MKGP,TGC,ADES,VWEAX,RYTNX,,, all closed positions currently as of 9/12/07. Firebird is 100% cold hard cash. I did not include our emergency fund which sits in a bank max- saver account at 5.00%. I also have a real tiny bond fund I've not done much with in recent years, looking for that dividend to pay my utilities some day! Best luck to all here, I've never done well in Sept- Thanksgiving time frame so I'm sitting out for awhile for the low risk enviorment to return. Maybe that crash will come on the 26th, then I'll start shooting ducks again, Ken

Hi Steve, YTD Revised,

well not yet revised but working on it, but I did make a rather large mistake when I said +19.56 YTD. That 19% also includes my cash additions this year and 2 nice windfall checks we recieved but did not expect. Soooooooooooooooo I was way off base and I need to re-calculate my YTD. Should bring it down well into single digits. I'm still sitting 100% cash waiting for crash! <----- Did I make a funny? Ken
