    On another thread, L2R and I were talking about Gordon Lightfoot. L2R says that "Endless Wire" and "Sundown" are two of her favorites.

    The reason Lightfoot will always be a favorite of mine is that when my husband proposed he arranged for this song to be playing in the background. He's a sweetie!

    I forgot The Circle Is Small; If You Could Read My Mind. He did quite a few that I like, come to think of it.

    VIX on the rise?
    Monday, August 25, 2008
    We tagged the lower band on Friday, always a red flag in a bear market. Today's close put us above the 10 dma (20.49), upper band resistance is at 22.50.
    We will keep trading this market by the book, i.e. bear market rules: oversold gets more oversold and overbought gets sold. Only the deeply oversold combined with extremely negative equity option sentiment gets a buy. If the rules get broken, stay out altogether.

    Tuesday, August 26, 2008
    Update (2):
    ES pops up to 1275.50 resistance outlined earlier and we stall as the VIX finds support at 20.50, its 10 dma. Unless bonds really breakdown, this should just remain a corrective bounce off yesterday's lows. Semis are down, financials up. Chop day.

    Someone on another thread stated their opinion that, "...from an ideological standpoint, multiculturalism is but a thinly veiled attack on the central principles and ideas of Western civilization." So I wanted to put in my 2 cents.

    I think multi-culturalism is accepting the best parts of all people in order to grow - - a sort of educated evolution. And it's happening regardless of what we think about it. So we may want to remember that when faced with evolutionary changes, we have three choices: adapt, migrate, or die. I think I choose ... hmm-m-m-m ... adapt!

    My last post was a little too serious to end on, so I just wanted to tell you that I think Politics is named correctly. "Poli" from the Latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "bloodsucking insects."

    Have a good day all,

    I am concerned that the term 'multi-culturalism' is simply a whitewashing of the term 'invasion'. I believe that history shows us that when cultures and countries are invaded, the invaders are absorbed, or absorb the invaded culture, or are repulsed. In our case, I think those are our choices. But what do I know, I just do science stuff.

    If this is an "invasion" (I don't subscribe to that opinion but this would be a boring world if we all thought alike) then I agree that we would have the three choices you've outlined. History shows that we can absorb, be absorbed, or let a river of blood run in the streets for at least a generation while we repel. Given those choices, I choose .... hmmm-m-m-m ... still adapt!!

    Thanks for your visit to my MB home.
