Oracle to the Rescue?

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Financial     # ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

The market hasn't been feeling so well lately. Maybe it's the European crisis or the not so great news on jobs or the bad housing numbers or the gushing BP oil, or the brutal summer heat. It was yet another bad day with the Dow off 145 points or 1.4%. What the market needs is — Continue reading ยป

Apple to $45?

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Financial     # ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

According to this article, citing a previously unknown investment/research company, BAM investor, Apple could fall to as low as $45/share within a few months based on their technical analysis. Something tells me BAM investor needed a little publicity so they just dumped an outrageous claim on the wires and it received its due double-take. But — Continue reading ยป

Wealth and Philanthropy

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Social     # ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

Wealthy people who like to flash their material possessions rub me the wrong way. But that's not Warren Buffett's style and I admire him for it. I'm not sure what kind of person I would have been if I had his kind of wealth, but if a person is destined to become filthy rich, then — Continue reading ยป

Sympathy for BP

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Environment,Law     # ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

Is it just me or does the BP boss, Tony Hayward, has one of those faces you feel sorry for? I know, no compassion for BP, but watching the man squirm before the congressional hearing today, I almost felt bad for him. Ok, enough sympathy. Now let's get that Gulf gusher plugged, shall we?   — Continue reading ยป

Friend BP on YouTube

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Web     # ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

Just happened to see this ad on YouTube. Don't get it. I wasn't BP's friend before, why would I want to be their friend now? What's next, friending Bin Laden and Kim Jong-il?        — Continue reading ยป

Bananas

Today while shopping at Costco, I had to pause and contemplate how weird us humans really are. It happened when I was grabbing a bag of bananas. Being a wholesale store, you can get a ton of bananas in bags for $1.32 at Costco. Some bags may have 10 while others may have 12 bananas. — Continue reading ยป

Pine Mountain, Ridgefield, CT

Hard to believe that I've had a jewel of a hike within a walking distance of my house (where I've lived for year) and I hadn't been to the top of it until a only few of weeks ago. This is a part of a parcel of land that my hometown, Ridgefield, CT, took from — Continue reading ยป

Pelican in BP Oil

    ๐Ÿ“‚ Environment     # , ,     ๐Ÿ—จ No Comments

If MSNBC was trying to evoke feelings of sympathy and anger in its viewers today, it really came through with the picture of this defenseless bird covered in rust-colored BP crude oil. For me it sums up how reckless and callous oil companies are and how ridiculous the "drill baby drill" people sounded. You figure — Continue reading ยป
