The Racing Stripe
My buddy The Bitch has been working inside the structure on framing in the new kitchen. I’ve been giving him a hard time about coming all the way to Tahoe just to spend the whole time inside.
I’m pretty sure Hefé is just testing him, giving him a set of prints and letting him go to town so he can get a feel for what he knows. It still sucks that he has to be inside because the weather this week has been partly to mostly fantastic.
At one point in the day, as I was running my mouth, The Bitch pulled his chalk line from his tool belt, pulled out a couple of feet of string, then whipped it at my arm. Before I knew what had happened, the chalk line had wrapped itself around my arm leaving a blue line in its wake.
I had been given the racing stripe. Until you wash it off with soap and water, you can’t really do a whole lot about it; you’re stuck with a blue line on your arm when you get the stripe. Evidently The Bitch has learned much since our last encounter because the racing stripe was a trick I had never seen. Rest assured that it will be added to my repertoire though. Once the blue line was washed off this evening, I weighed 169 pounds.

given that my former career was as a Stock Analyst, I would have to advise my readers that this guy is FULL OF SHIT!!!
Chasing stocks is a fools game that the huge Wall Street firms convince you to play so they can take transaction costs on your commissions....casinos anyone?
The only thing anyone needs to know about investing is to diversify, diversify, difersify....seek out low fee diversified funds....never pay upfront sales loads for a mutual fund
The rest of the investing world is a game which enriches the well-connected off of the backs of the working class....take it from someone who used to be on the inside people....DON'T BUY THEIR GARBAGE!!!
