    While the casual reader might be fooled by your attempt to latch on to my success, a careful reading shows few if any comparisons with the pathetic post you offered.

    ”Screw it”

    “It’s enough to bring on a manly cry, I tell you”, tampa was quoted as saying. “ET is beyond help, it’s over, done finished.” With those words the prolific journal keeper called it quits for the sixth time in less than two years. Only r7 has walked away more often – although he had the decency to do so under different names.

    Veteran Elite Trader members were unmoved, as the temperamental author has repeatedly bailed, only to devise some harebrain scheme to justify a return (some more inspired then others). What finally drove tampa over the edge was a common problem in Journalville – repeated invasions by idiots and morons who don’t quite get what it’s all about.

    Mister Sublinal often accused of pilfering the popular tampa’s humorous trading journal style had to be restrained, overcome with joy. “Maybe people will read my journal again”, he said. Experts thought that unlikely, as most ET members had not been born when last Subliminal published. Even old trader had trouble recalling seeing it. Remarkable, since the old boy can recite every tick of every stock traded on the NYSE during the crash of 1929.

    In closing, no edition of the daily skirt would be complete without mentioning 40yotrader – consider him mentioned.

  3. Please, please
    reconsider your decision, as
    it would be ironic if a hard-core
    cadre of message board morons succeed in
    kicking you out, wouldn't it?

  4. Look here feller this ain't a question of courage, but it takes courage to maintain a Journal, 'cause you're the guy or gal responsible for everyting posted. But, times being what they are, there is gonna be some shoutin' and hollerin'. That's healthy, as long as it's agreed upon when to shout and holler and for what reasons.

    It just makes me sick that sometimes you got to show the door to people but, there it is, it's your Journal. So, I'll shutup.

  5. Really sorry for the harsh words btw.

    ps. being new to forums and plan to stay that way, I did NOT realize this was your JOURNAL- so you are quite right to kick me out. No hard feelings whatsoever.

    Try sit down comedy- doubt you have the strength for stand up. Turn this train wreck into gold.

    It is my sincere hope that you enjoyed this “journal” as much as I enjoyed writing it.

    In addition to all the people who checked in to see what nonsense I could come up with, I want to thank Magna The Wise, who had to look the other way and bend the rules more than once. I would also be remiss were I to not give credit to Mister Subliminal, who’s own “journal” inspired this one.

    I had a lot of fun writing it, and got a major big time kick watching the hit count climb – it was most flattering. I also enjoyed the number of people – publicly and privately – who believed what was written. There was a degree of truth in most of it. Some of it was the so called gospel truth. As I have said previously, believe what you want.

    BUT (there is always a but, isn’t there), one major asshole was determined to “trash” the journal, and litter it with repeated irrelevant posts. Frankly, this is too much work to have some moron ruin it. So that is why I have decided to call it quits – for real, once (?) and for all.

    I certainly am not the first to “complain” that this board has gone down hill, with more than it’s fair share of idiots barging into threads, insulting, and even stalking some members. Frankly, there is nothing that can be done to rectify the situation. “Stuff happens”.

    And so with that, I say good bye – I think the mailman is coming up the walk carrying something I don’t want you know who to see. And one more thing – please, PLEASE don’t let that damned Subliminal’s journal pass me in “views”.

    (Take care, and be good – “tampa”)

  8. As Bob Hope always said, "thanks for the memories!" You brought some humor into what can sometimes be a dark and scary place. I look forward to hearing more from you about your adventures in "Woodie Land."

  10. Well, your farewell tour was short-lived. Anytime a personality becomes as popular as you there are going to be people trying to live off of your energy. I don't blame Mr. Subliminal, exactly; just wish he would've not been so cruel to you.

    I'm positive his PM's were only intended to re-establish the bonds of friendship, not as a lure to entice you back for more abuse.

    What say, give us another chance. Don't let this be your last hurrah. BTW how did the bake sale go?
