Congrats, IRA

MCD short. Stop at 173

RealDeal, Have you read The TB12 Method: How to Achieve a Lifetime of Sustained Peak Performance? I read it over the weekend. Not very life changing, but interesting. I checked it out from the library, so I got my moneys worth! lol

Tiarra, your MCD pick fits my take on a small fast food difference between SD and I. He's a fan of Bojangles, BOJA. I'm not a fan. You and the broad market seems to agree with me. Look at a two year chart of MCD and BOJA. It looks like things are going well for BOJA the first year, them bam, BOJA goes down in flames while MCD rises steadily. MCD great pick. BOJA probably better as a short. I wonder what TB12 prefers, MCD or BOJA? With 9 hours or so of pre-game shows someone may ask him. -ira

I cannot disagree with your stock analysis Ira regarding MCD or BOJA- BUT- I prefer the BO food any day-of the week!
I'll go with PSTG again- it's an actual position that didn't gain any last week, but it also didn't fold and hit my stop-loss-

[tiarra]

Don't eat at either! lol I remember watching the documentary Super Size Me and it made me crave McDees like mad. Then I ate it and totally regretted it! I think BOJA is a NC thing. Although when I lived there, I admit, I ate at Biscuitville.

Getting bummed out - making bad picks since last July -  Some have been right calls - wrong week - 
Oh well - try CBI short on the "too far too fast" play

Tiarra,

I was thinking to look into TB book, thanks for the feedback. So its more of various stories and what he does working out? I'm more interested in his diet in detail. LOL IRA I'm sure he drinks bud light and pops a few handfuls of skittles before every game.

I'm was you Tiarra I don't eat either for many years now.


I don't know anyone else besides Spiderman watched the game, but a lot odd things went on, 26 second network blackout and the commercials that everyone tunes into to watch, pretty horrible. The only one I like was the TIDE one. Butler best man on defense gets benched not sure why, 4th and 5 going for it, missed extra point and FG. The defense surrendered 613 total yards, including 373 through the air. So unpatriotic like... TB 505-yards passing in a lose =(. I just have get out I feel a tad better.

RealDeal, The TB book is so stinking basic. Most of it is about pliability. Basically, he has learned he is not as flexible now as he was in his 20s. Wow! For sustained peak performance, he suggest brain training, rest, recover, nutrition, hydration, and workouts. Again, nothing brainstorming. There is a corner that refers to the lymphatic system, but he doesn't really tell how to activate it, only that it's important. I keep my lymph system moving by rebounding or jumping on a trampoline, but he did not mention those options. He suggest becoming more pliable by using vibrating foam rollers and vibrating spheres, which basically looks like one getting a massage with these products. To which I say, visit a chiropractor or just get a massage! He shows some movements using resistant bands, which looks similar to exercises Richard Simmons did to toning to the oldies, or something along that line. I know the bands he uses are strong, but I can't get that Richard and his short shorts and wild hair out of my head when I see resistance bands. I use a pilates machine, which is about the same and doesn't invoke flashbacks. The book has a big push for water and if you drink alcohol, drink the same amount of water to compensate. Here are the food guidelines: Do: Each real, organic, and local food. Eat mostly Veggies, consume fatty acids, eat high fiber, eat a variety. Don't: no refined carbohydrates, no unhealthy fats, limit dairy, limit salt, limit nightshades, limit caffeine, limit alcohol. He gives a list of alkalizing foods and acidifying foods and talks about portion size and snacking. There are a few recipes in here. It may be worth checking it out from the library, but I wouldn't buy it!
