    Hilarious !

    If Hitman can't crack a smile over "What Women Want in a Man",
    then a full recovery is in serious jeoparday.....

    He's probably got at least 7 or 8 of the 10 "requirements" down pretty well already.

    If he'll just take off and throw away his hair shirt, and toss that "I am not worthy"
    flagellation whip, he'll turn on a dime - guarranteed!! :)

    So, GO FOR IT, Hitman - JUST DO IT !!

    And, SMILE, damnit !! :D

    Well, Hitman, I have been following your thread with a great interest like the most people on this thread.

    As a trader you have my respect, as a man you have still a long way to go.

    You know by now that if your trading strategy doesn't work you have to do something about it - the same thing can be said for the relationships.

    I quite like the advice Shorteee gave you - play it cool - losing the safety net will make her think.

    Sometimes the lack of interest provokes the interest.

    What have you got to lose? Your mind? You are allready half way there - turn it around - turn it around - turn it around.

    Good luck

  8. Now this is getting pretty good.....If Hitman thinks my "genes" are ok,...he can have 20 year old ....let him trade at Worldco for awhile.....with no money (and with tremendous cash "needs" - or so he thinks)....WorldCo would be out of business in no time......:)

    Hitman....back to a serious note.....I "semi" agree with the "being 22 years old" - comments above, but still know damn well that you can only "feel" what you "feel" and no matter what everyone else says to try to help...things like losing a love will hurt, and hurt a lot..at 22 or 52...so good luck in your personal life.....and try to keep your business "head" about you (you might lay off me once in a while :) ..and try your best to separate the personal from the business...while at the same time, maybe think about both in more gentle terms...as "games" not "wars" - the "game" of life is a lot more fun that way IMO....
    And I have a grand-daughter coming in 2 months....(probably "Abbey" from 'Abbey Road)....but, maybe middle initial "H" for Hitman.....:)

  9. Hitman based on your replies it has become apparent that you have decided to employ the Hitman Deluxe safety Net Strategy. Since the princess is using the Hedge strategy, expect a call on Monday from the risk management department because of this unauthorized combination. You see Hitman this pair trade has absolutely no correlation. Even Don Bright is laughing at this combination setup. By you condoning the princess to develop other relationships (with you as the safety net) she may in fact if not this one, find her next partner irresistible. He may ask her hand in marriage, she accepts and now she is forced to employ the naked put option (expunging you from her mind and heart).
    I believe the risk management department may suggest that if she employs the hedge you may want to consider the hedge strategy in combination with the vacuum plus. The beauty of this strategy allows you develop a plan to find another soul mate while at the same time giving you the thrill and excitement that if and when the the princess calls you, she's yours for the taking.
    What may also happen with this strategy is that you may find a new princess that is truly loyal to you, and then the next thing you know the other princess comes chiming at the door. Now that's a nice win win pair trade.

  10. Shortee,

    The problem with that pairs trade is that it is commission intensive, and profits resulting from either leg of the trade may be mitigated by trading costs...

    Love,
