i'm worried the ark sytem account is going to take a hit here this week, but nothing to do about it anyways as most arkers seem to want to be in and the system can't move until after the holiday. it is looking like an interesting week ahead.

Good move, getting over 2% in a month is pretty sweet. Lock in gains, lock out volatility. Don't need an electrical fence for that...

Burro, how happy can a clam really be? They are destined to get opened by some hideous creature and eaten or thrown in to hot water and get eaten by some hideous human. They never even try to run away in spite of:

some clams run away. also some clams have pearls, although usually it's oysters. and sometimes you just find yourself on the wrong beach at the wrong time. i've never been able to figure it out.

do you know the difference between an escort an a wife? it's checks.

once you write the check the escort is happy. when the wife finds out you wrote a check she gets mad. especially if it was to an escort.

crazy stuff i've noticed.

I hear clams are a dime a dozen here, but I doubt you'll find any pearls.

matthew may have had some good advice regarding that in 7:6.

nor cast your pearls before swine

Ha! What a coinkidink! I just got back yesterday from a 5 day trip to the City of Angels and had lunch at Musso and Frank's on Hollywood Blvd., this past Saturday. I drove right by Hollywood and Vine and I didn't see any clams, swines, pearls, or gentlemen ....but it was daytime, too.

You know you grew up in Hollywood because .... Hollywood at dusk. One of the coolest memories I have of growing up in L.A..
