Maybe this new message board site will change my luck for the better. So far it is working!

Why do you want to change your luck? So far, you have more wins than anyone else for 2008.

Hi DG,
I changed my name from BKS to Spiderman. I need to find a spiderman icon if someone can help me that would be great.

Hi DG, I changed my name from BKS to Spiderman. I need to find a spiderman icon if someone can help me that would be great. Spiderman Enter spider man at the following site: images.google.comClick on the result you like. When you see the image, right click on it and select Save Picture As... Put it in a spot where you can find it again, such as your My Pictures folder. Then upload it to Photobucket.com There is another thread at this site that might help you with this.

Since I forgot earlier, I will here store the deliberately incorrect horse race matrix for this week's race to use as template (missing left sq bracket):

AHA! I found that if one goes into a previous post (that one made), the table commands can be C&Ped from the represented message box for another post -- so I won't need to post a matrix template anymore. YEA!

Nice going Bankedout. I don't know why I think it makes any sense to take a long position in a BEAR market. I have been looking at the 90 Treasury yield as a good indicator of market direction. It makes sense - if people are bailing out of stocks and corporate bonds - it is a safe place to park money in the short term. I can't figure out how to post a chart but Iam sure we all know that the yield is tumbling (0.47 % on an annualized basis). I vow to remain short until it returns to a higher yield trend - I will short GOOG next week.
