âJapanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into our side, chief⦠Just delivered the bomb, the Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in twelve minutes. Didnât see the first shark for about half an hour. Tiger. Thirteen-footer. You know how you know that when youâre in the water, chief? You tell by looking from the dorsal to the tail⦠Well we didnât know that our bomb mission had been so secret no distress signal had been sent. They didnât even list us overdue fir a week. Very first light, chief, sharks came cruising, so we formed ourselves into tight groups⦠you know, kind of like old squares in a battle like you see in a calendar, like the battle of Waterloo, and the idea was, shark comes to the nearest man and then you start pounding and hollering and screaming. Sometimes the shark goes, sometimes he wouldnât go away⦠I donât know how many sharks. Maybe a thousand, I donât know how many men, they averaged six an hour⦠Noon the fifth day, Mr Hooper, a Lockheed Ventura saw us, he swung in low⦠and three hours later a big fat PBY comes down, starts to pick us up⦠So, eleven hundred men went into the water, three hundred and sixteen men come out and the sharks took the rest, June 29th 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.â
Shorty, Your mom is going to hit you with a frying pan when she notices you drank all the cooking sherry.
Nothing sold off, Renny. Stop trying to short a fixed market. Would you play in a poker tourney where all your opponents could see your cards?
MON. 3/29. 4:10 pm Dow+ 45 Even though the initial FLAT call proved spot on, it is the emergancy WEAK call that came in afterwards that will payoff in a big way.. Sleep well, tommorrow she's gonna tank in a powerful way! Until the morning bell, I bid ye Pikers adeiux.. Rennick out
The markets rise at the open, shift a bit to the upside, stay flat all day and find their footing by the last 20-30 mins before the close. Now if the markets had opened 30-50 points to he downside this morning there would have been 10X the volatility and certainly a push to positive territory by mid day. The game only goes one way.
we shall see whether his unfulfilled short call comes true today. i see some red already. but to quote Rennick: "even a one-eyed whore can score some nuts once in a blue moon"
