So What the Hell Should I Write About?
2009-04-20 04:13:00 This blog started as a lament. As most of you know, I started writing at a time when I most felt like my personal dreams were slipping from my reach. Though I had been working hard at “jobs” (many hours, etc.), I was operating at half-throttle, chomping on the bit with some fire in my ... More About: Write , Hell
Alright, I?m Back?
2009-03-02 04:55:00 For starters, and a big for starters at that: please forgive me for my truancy. On the one hand, I have a small debt to pay: I have met many people who care for me, and for whom I care very much myself, and I have neglected the joys I receive from being a part ...

All Quiet on the Front, Industrious in the Trenches
2008-11-29 06:38:00 It’s been over a week now since my last post, so I felt compelled to come out of the shadows for a moment and say a few things. For starters, I wanted to make sure everyone knew I was still here. Though I haven’t been posting often this last week, I’ve been busy. I’ve got my game ... More About: Front , Quiet
This is the Greatest Week of My Life
2008-11-20 07:56:00 (I dedicate this post to Bruce from The Thinker’s Podium–who doesn’t know me in the least for I have never yet, until this very sentence, spoken up to him. I have followed his blog for a very long time and sometimes lament that I haven’t summoned the guts to write with my full intellect, as ... More About: Life , My Life , Happiness , Week , Purpose
In the Presence of a Cold Rain
2008-11-15 17:11:00 There was cold rain coming down all around the man as he walked briskly down the street. He had only a few blocks more to walk. It wasn’t a heavy rain, but in the darkness of the night the sound of the rain came to his ears in better ways than the sight of it came ... More About: Fiction , Cold , Rain , Presence
Two Minutes of Your Time, Help Me Help Someone
2008-11-14 22:13:00 Step right up ladies and gents! [Blah, blah]: I was wrapping up two different posts; one for tonight, one for tomorrow when suddenly, I learned that a dear friend of mine had shoved (hard) her blog while it was standing on smooth, wet tile causing it to slam onto the floor, dead in a growing pool ...

Good Finds From the Internet
2008-11-14 01:08:00 I often find things worth sharing with you that I don’t necessarily have the time to share with the kind of depth that they deserve. What I’ve decided to do is this: Periodically, I’m going to write a post summarizing them. This will be the first installment. Another thing I’m going to start doing is dedicating ...

My Google Penalty and My Response
2008-11-12 16:41:00 About two months ago this site was listed as a PR (Page Rank) 4 site and since then I have had many dozens of new incoming links, several of which came from blogs with very large profiles. I would normally have expected to be a PR 5 (or even 6) site by now but instead ... More About: Google , Tips , Penalty , Response
Gardening in the Winter
2008-11-11 18:31:00 No doubt we always think of springtime as the time for gardening. The birds chirp and all that stuff, the days slowly get warmer and our sleeves shorter. After being pent up indoors hiding behind frosted windows all winter we like to stretch our legs, venture outdoors and play in the dirt while we tell ... More About: Life , Winter , Gardening , Tips
When You are Your Own Enemy
2008-11-06 16:03:00 Now that is the best kind of war. Not only is it the best because it’s the sort that makes the best films and the best novels, but it’s also the best because it’s the most winnable kind of war to wage.

Is The Suspense Killing You Yet?
2008-01-22 05:33:00 Good . It may turn out that I was fibbing when I said what I said in the last post. These things aren't really over until they're over. Either way, I should know soon. If things fall through, I've got a great analysis of the market for a short time frame from end of December until now. So, if the transaction doesn't wrap up as planned, I'll post all those goodies instead. See you soon... More About: Suspense , Killing

I Really Ought To Go To New York
2008-01-12 06:19:00 Why’s that you say? Primarily, because you never know what kind of admirers you might find along the way. Interesting people perhaps. People with an eye for suspicious matters willing to pursue minor investigations into the depths of other interesting people. When you see such things, as I sometimes do, you think that places like say, Brooklyn, suddenly might have an appeal all their own. Not More About: New York , York , New-York
Some Details On How I Did The Recent Stock Market Analysis
2008-01-06 16:58:00 One of the few “regulars” on this blog asked me a question in regards to the recent stock market analysis I did. The essential question was: “Could you say something about the process of collecting and analyzing the data? Where did you get it, what software did you use, how long did it take you to do this analysis etc.?” To elaborate on the brief explanation outlined in this article about the More About: Stock Market , Market , Analysis , Stock , Recent

Very Large Dataset Analysis #3 – 91 Good Dividends For Bad Times
2007-12-25 03:05:00 After burning up one computer, transferring data to another, then having to upgrade that new one to handle the workload of the Very Large Dataset Project, I’ll be finally posting some results again. In addition to the computer upgrades, I had to create new code that would correct share price values from the past to automatically account for the effects of stock splits.

Kashmir
2007-12-19 06:44:00 When mixing the old with the new, one better be vary careful. Careful why? Because whatever hope one might have in preserving the best qualities of the old can be ruined with the introduction of the new. Care would seem to be something that was taken, when Kashmir was covered by Bond.So much care in fact, that it (in my ignorant opinion) actually improved significantly on Led Zeppelin’s terrific
And The Winner Of The Starbucks Gift Card Is…
2007-12-18 04:44:00 …hopefully a hell of a lot warmer than I am right now . In fact, I recommend that this individual buy a couple Frappuccinoes instead of a hot mug. Russell from Hawaii is the winner. Congratulations Russell. Russell may contact me using the “contact me” link on the left so I can verify his identity and get an address.

The Dow is Falling! The Dow is Falling!
2007-12-18 00:41:00 So stocks suck right now. Down and down they go, when they will stop no one knows. How does one react to such forces? I don’t know about you, but clearly, as you can see quite plainly, updated for you daily during the week and at least once a weekend, my portfolio has long since passed the bloody nose phase—now it’s lost arms and legs. But much like the knight from Monty Python, it still has…um…
The Aftermath Of The StumbleUpon Marathon
2007-12-15 19:25:00 I’d like to think that somewhere in Mountain View, California, somewhere near Google, some weary eyed and exhausted computer technician is just finally putting his tools away after having been called in for a special emergency: multiple hard drive failures in one of their Blogger servers. Of course this is a bit exaggerated, but my mere imaginings are the small price I’d like to pay myself after More About: Marathon , Stumbleupon

Which brings me to a good point: “is it worth signing up?” A little surprised that more people haven’t signed up for it (it’s easy to do, just leave a comment), I decided to present this like a gambler would.

How To Defeat A Defeated Market
2007-12-15 02:22:00 (This first paragraph was written with intended complication—to avoid the hassle, you may skip it and still hit the main course starting in the second paragraph—new traffic persuades me to go fishing). I think different kinds of people react in widely different ways to objectively bad situations. Did you catch the nuance there? I placed it at the end after we all got thinking about differences.

How To Make A Million Dollars In About 8 Years
2007-12-13 02:22:00 A lot of people I know would really love to make a million dollars. Can you imagine what you could do with that? Besides your initial spending spree (I think we almost all would do the same initial actions—pay off some bills, fix up a car, repair something or other in our house; in other words, we would get “safe”), think of all the ways you could really start maximizing your potential.

The Day I Was A Day Trader
More articles from this author:2007-12-11 06:33:00 Of course, I don’t mean that literally; not in the “close your positions by market close” kind of way. What I mean (as strange as it might sound) is the um, actually “trade during the day” way. Believe it or not, I don’t actually have the opportunity to physically place trades during market hours (I’ve mentioned this before, to some peoples’ surprise).
