Mechanical Investing for August
By the hair of my chinny chin chin, mechanical investing did ok this month. The overall market took a beating and most stocks (including mine) were down, but one big winner made it a positive month for me. Six winners and seven losers this month. Holding for another month: Ticker Return PBR +3.8% Petroleo [...]

I didn’t watch the MTV Awards last night. There’s not much about that event that appeals to me. With MTV solidly behind John Kerry, I expected a lot of Bush bashing. Imagine my surprise when I read on Drudge last night that when John Kerry’s daughters got up on stage to ask people to vote [...]

I have all day meetings Monday and Tuesday and some tight deadlines to meet at work this week. Postings will be slim till the end of the week. Currently we’re up to about 300 Democratic loonies arrested in New York. I’m predicting a thousand before the end of the week.

Alex called back last night and we caught up on things. He’s staying up at college this weekend (good for him!); he has parties, an XBox tournament, and movies to go see. Some of those events mysteriously involve girls.

I tried calling my new collegiate college son on Wednesday night to see how his first day of classes went. No answer on his dorm phone. I sent him an email, too, telling him I had emailed his Bearkat card. I can only assume he got the email; he didn’t reply. I tried calling again [...]

At one point, I wanted to do a regular reporting of what people searched for on Google that led them here. For a while, it was fun; pastamancer, mispelled watermellon, Michael Moore’s movie, etc. But for over a month it’s been Dale Earnhardt Jr and his girlfriend or some variation thereof. Here’s the search word [...]

The riots on New York 2004 are about to begin to coincide with the Republican National Convention. The Republicans have every intention of putting the protestors on TV and point out that those naked lunatics setting fire to stuff are supporters of Kerry. History repeats itself; in Chicago 1968 students rioted and rebelled against the [...]

John Kerry’s Vietnam-bashing book went out of print years ago. He wouldn’t give permission for the publisher to reprint it; his veteran-bashing would probably hurt his campaign. After all, he wants to be the Commander in Chief of all those baby killers. Through the magic of the internet, you can read his book online here. [...]

Despite the best effort of the liberal media (headline reads “Kerry Backer Tries in Vain to Get Protest to Bush“), John Kerry’s stunt went over like a lead balloon yesterday. He organized Max Cleland, the disabled ex-Senator, to deliver a letter to President Bush at his Crawford ranch. Of course it was a stunt; he [...]
