  1. They are all out to get us. I think they want to take over our minds. They won't rest until they do.

    Those crooked meteorologists really are a horrible group of people.

    Why do they say it's going to rain, and then it doesn't? Or they say it will be sunny, and it rains. Or they say the high for the day will be 70 degrees, and it's 75 degrees already? :p

  3. "It never rains in Southern California"

    they actually made a song around those lyrics,

    so what happens in the North East doesn't carry through across the country, and perhaps that's a good thing, as the markets still trade...

    Must be a slow trading day if we're onto the weather. But with the Dow stuck at -80 to -90 and COMPX at -4 or so it isn't presenting a lot of oportunity for me to trady the SPY.
