    There’s no neighborhood like Bed Stuy for Sunday church lady hats!!!! Go in to Peaches at around 1:00 or later and check it out.

    yeah, baby. I lOVE church hats. My neighbor told me she liked my hat once. I had to tell her it was my hair!

    First, we are still in dangerous times.

    I would go to 60/40 with 15-20 of the stock overseas.

    I would never make the move all at once, I would do it gradually over a year.

    What I would do pretty quick is to make sure the bond portion of your portfolio, whatever it is, is in short maturities.

    Finally, free financial advice is generally worth what you
    pay for it, lol.

  3. “and WHY do they wear tight short shorts with floppy oversized combat boots?”

    dh, this mystifies me. Combat boots are hot, especially in the GD summertime.

    Going to sound awful, but if these thin gays were here in the 80s and saw first hand the effects of the aids virus on young men they would have a porterhouse.

  4. Jessi: I don’t know why people look at me and think: “Approachable”.”

    I don’t know why Jessi, but every blasted place I go on this planet (except Tokyo) people ask me directions. Everywhere. I travel for work (though not so much recently) and maybe it is because I am walking somewhere by myself to somewhere but everyone stops me. I remember in Rome once people asking me where some hospital was and I said I didnt’ know Italian and they looked at me like I was retarded.

  5. Kens…you should be at least 70% equities at your age and half of that should be international of which half of that should be emerging markets. You’re in your 30s so you’ve got at least 25+ years before you start using IRA money….that’s a lot of market cycles.

  6. What’s up with the gay dudes that shoot up steroids and look like professional bodybuilders…Like overly with veins popping out. Does anyone find that attractive?

    It’s on the continuum of what turns people on Kens. Across the continuum this is a fairly prosaic attraction. I’ll be giving a lecture on the continuum of sexuality later at Pajaro Caliente.
