Here is a writeup on why you shouldn't think VBA is crashing down... I hope you won't buy it.

VBA Weekly

1) The long term trend line with the recent peak of 2.14 has to be taken out before you want to take a look at this airline;

2) See the two high volume sell off days(week)? Assuming you were amongst the sellers in the first "shit", and then you bought back in because you really like this very bad airline, and now you are in "shit" again... ask this dumb and dumber question - will you be trying for a THIRD time?

3) If your answer is a positively YES, well,... you're a real champ, a hero, and you have my admiration and I mean it because I always consider this market always need people like you to make it profitable for others...

Dear Dr and everyone,

What's in a language? Here's something I like to share...

The first time I was exposed to "Western" vulgarity was when someone swearing with "f..king" and being "innocent" (at the age of 21!) I was kind of stunt, I was completely mesmerized by the power of that word.

Do you know what went through my mind? I thought THAT was COOL! I have never known there is such a nice and beautiful word existing in English! It was short, sounded good and to the point! And there are many ways to use it - you use it on people you care and you use it on people you don't care! You use it on things, events, and even on yourself! :-)

Now just ask this question - where in the world can you get such versatile word? Try find another word that can remotely come close to it! (Sh*t is the closest I can think of)

However, I found out soon enough that liberal use of that word could/can cause grief and I had been reminded since "it is not very nice" to swear. (Gosh! I have no idea that I had been swearing!)

What's the point I am making here? Well, I don't like to be seen as promoting vulgarity, but I do wish to be seen as someone who does like to utilise the full repertoire of English words with "control" and moderation - as in the case of using the phrase of "when sh*t hits the fan..." (now where in the world can you get another such nice and beautiful expression? Huh?)

Using the word sh*t (which incidentally is nothing bad because its a result of our biological function) in VBA chart was "designed" to emphasise how... yes, "sh*tty" the situation one is in if he/she is caught. Expressing it otherwise would have taken a lot of the sting and impact away.

Anyway, I will watch my choice of words in future and if possible wash my hands and wipe my arse before even trying another.

... did I just say arse? Duh!

Sorry and cheers!

ps: thanks for the caution Dr.

This is another example for "explaining" yourself,HC.Like what country did you originally come from?
Now i know the ignorant call people from Italy and Greece WOGS but i bet you didn't know W.O.G. stands for Western Oriental Gentleman as from Egypt,or Pakistan/India and points in between.The english language is always being dumbed down like that.

Seeing as you like 'Earthy' stories here's one about johnny.

Johnny's in the toilet having a slash.He finishes just as this other dude comes in and Johnny zips up and goes to just walk out.The other bloke who must have been dull or something slurs out
"HEY aren't ya gunna wash ya hands after?"
Johnny looks at him and sneers
"I wash me hands BEFORE I touch MY dick,droob"

johnny was a bit twisted like that.maybe it's why he was such the Ladies Man.

cheers'

Dr,

Reviving the "A Junkies"?

Hmmmm,.... just a quick question, what do you reckon the current to short term market sentiment? Is it still as good as the last time we were chatting on that thread? I suggest we wait for a few days before venturing into that "dark water" where only the brave and the fearless dare.

For urbane chicken investors such as moi, I think I like to see when the coast is clear and the sun shines above...

Cheers.

ps: after saying that, check out LNG - in a moment of weakness, I let the devil talked me into owning some; totally against my character! (the stock was "IPO"ed with 20c)

Pancho,

I have a joke to share with you...

One day at a busy airport, the passengers on a commercial airliner are seated, waiting for the cockpit crew to show up, so they can get under way. The pilot and co-pilot finally appear in the rear of the plane,
and begin walking up to the cockpit through the center aisle. Both appear to be blind. The pilot is using a white cane, bumping into passengers right and left as he stumbles down the aisle, and the co-pilot is using a guide dog. Both have their eyes covered with huge sunglasses.

At first the passengers do not react; thinking that it must be some sort of practical joke. However, after a few minutes the engines start spooling up and the airplane starts moving down the runway. The passengers look at each other with some uneasiness, whispering among themselves and looking desperately to the flight attendants for reassurance.

Then the airplane starts accelerating rapidly and people begin panicking. Some passengers are praying, and as the plane gets closer and closer to the end of the runway, the voices are becoming more and
more hysterical.

Finally, when the airplane has less than 20 feet of runway left, there is a sudden change in the pitch of the shouts as everyone screams at once, and at the very last moment the airplane lifts off and is airborne.

Up in the cockpit, the co-pilot breathes a sigh of relief and turns to the Captain: "You know, one of these days the passengers aren't going to scream, and we're gonna be in trouble!"

... just imagine - the man in charge of the cockpit is the boss himself! :-)
