  1. If a person cares about getting "respect" on an anonymous board, then that person is lacking in a lot of areas of their life.

    And, with the title of this thread (and idiot thread starter), did you actually expect this to be a real informative thread? :)

    I'd like to get back the enthusiasm I had a dozen years ago. Back then my local paper had a telephone number you could call to get delayed quotes on stocks. I used to call it from my cubicle at work several times every day to follow whatever stock I had at the time. I had learned the keypad system so well my fingers could dance over the telephone and get my quote before my supervisor would notice I was on the phone yet again. Then I would rush out to tell my fellow employees how much money I was making. Unless of course my stock was down and then I would just quietly set the phone down and get back to work.

    I love to see enthusiasm. Whether it's for the market, loading freight, getting to the gym, whatever. Nobody should ever try to dampen someone elses positive enthusiasm.

    BTW, to answer the question - I'd say crack is more addictive. Every time you smoke crack, you get a good feeling. I only get a good feeling half the time I make a trade in the market.

    Imo, respect does matter on an anonymous board. One may need to ask a question and the person who knows the answer may feel it is worthwhile to reply.:cool:

  10. I will totally agree you with you on that chief.
    However, this baby orangutan swordman likes to open his mouth with jibberish often .. till I put him in his place.. then he shuts up.


    God bless!
