BHO, LOL. I hear you, and I agree.
You do sound market savvy however. Do you invest for a living? How can I learn from you?
LOL, stevie. Thank you. I’ve seen a couple like that lately, but I didn’t want to give you a hard time. What can I tell you? The Pollyanna in me prefers that people spar, debate, even do battle by day, but ultimately call a truce and have a drink together at night.
Yeah, stevieb. Gimme that tax loot, fool!

BHO, are you a markets professional?
Whoops! My 5:29 was in response to BrooklynGreene @ 3:36, not slopefarm @ 3:21!

“Meanwhile, BHO, we would need four more 16-month stretches like the last 16 months for Case-Schiller to hit half off. You are really in it for the long haul, aren’t you?” – 3:21
See me @ 12:35 above. Furthermore, the decline, real or otherwise, aint necessarily linear.

Sorry, CGAR, I was hoping you were not going to notice this! ;-P Soreee!!
“DIBS, I would love if you could give 11217 the business, if you know what I mean.”
Stevie, c’mon, you called a truce with 11217 and said you were gonna be nice.
