Maybe not the worst, but John Travolta is a no go for me.

Arrgghhh blasphemy!!! But then again I don't watch movies for artistic value, I just want senseless violence and a switch off. On this Keanu delivers. In John Wick. And the Matrix. And John Constantine. Oh what a pallet of fine monosyllabic concrete he is

Davidoff The Late Hour Toro.

Marked For Death? Under Siege? Those are classics! Tough crowd.

I've got one full box left. Haven't smoked once since 2018-2019, so can't remember much what they were like, except that along with the BBF, they are my fave from the Bolivar lineup.

Great advice. I've friends that are completely all or nothing, "I'm completely out". Can't hurt to keep 20% or so of a winner and let it run just in case, that last 20% has surpassed expectations and previous profit takings by a long shot in some cases.

So DFW North Texas has empty grocery stores and firewood is at a premium.

-26 air temperature tonight in Grand Forks, North Dakota but what else is new?

Love them. Any age. Cream and leather for me.

This isn't our parents' stock market. This isn't even the same market I've been trading for the last 25 years. After silver got crushed back down to into the teens after the 2011 peak, $50 was my target. Inflation adjusted break even since the 70s is closer to $75 an ounce. It blew right past all of that. The next Fibonacci is $160. I hate the stock market. I hate having to be forced into a speculative gambling machine at this point, but the market is going up. The mag 7 were the few under performers last year believe it or not. EVERYTHING IS UP. When you don't think it can go any higher you're missing the trend. Not to mention catching a moon shot like silver, LRCX, ASTS. That's the market now. These insane momentum plays that go 300%, 1200%. Just don't let a winner turn into a loser and become a bag holder. That's the worst.

Pretty sure this has been ongoing for a couple of years now. They've probably just tightened it further.

Heading to Nashville, go Preds!

I'll try to keep the tinfoil hat off for this. Is it physical or paper? If physical, then hold onto it forever; it can easily be 'willed' without government tracking. If paper, then it'll peak when the global economy sorts itself out - it's been a store of wealth for 2000+ years and there is no substitute. There is no set path forward, but I would suspect it has another $1k to go at a minimum. Also, gambling is a bit of a rush too, no? Cheers!

Let's not forget that gold, for the last 50 years, has been a drag on any investment portfolio. Recent price appreciation has caused a frenzy of interest that I suspect will cost many a ton of dough. It might come in handy to own some gold when there is a steep drop in the US equity markets, but otherwise, it's just yellow metal that has a strong emotional hold on humanity.

My pick for the Super Bowl winner? Based on recent form I'd guess the Seattle Seahawks.

1) Gunners, 3 2) Pats, under 3) Hawks, 1-6 4) 3 Cheers!

Even good/great actors can put in a bad performance in a bad movie. Often, the process of movie making fails and drags competent talent down. Remember Robin Williams in Popeye? I'd take issue with a few mentioned but Steven Seagal is a disgrace to the screen. Vin Diesel is terrible.

Soo...Robot Chicken?? Great show BTW. Cheers!

Natural gas hitting $15/dth at Chicago city gate for tomo. It's gonna be an interesting 10 days or so with supply concerns from Tex/Ok and Utica shale plays with weather events of their own. Good luck to you all, and stay warm! Cheers

I had a box of MUR 12s. Long gone but they were all solid 95 pt sticks. Superb box.

Laura Dern. After seeing Inland Empire (the worst movie ever made and a brutal endurance test) I just can't look at this face 😕 . If you have seen that movie you know why.

I won't be taking pics in the crap that is coming. Kansas City area is expecting -25 below wind chills and 6-9 inches of snow this weekend..

Ok, there’s a crazy cold front hitting most of the US and Canada. I’d be curious to see just how crazy it gets. Please submit pics to help us all stay preoccupied. -10 F tomorrow morning in Chicago. Bonus points for pics including a lit cigar…
