I use an Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam) quote as my signature.

"I know all the rules but the rules did not know me"

I think it really has a place in trading...

doesnt matter how many rules you know .. the market doesnt play bye rules

When you are backed by Government you may think you're home and dry, unless they are incompetent.

Here's one for the Christians ...
Better not include it on the Bible quotes thread. - only some Bible quotes are welcome there :hide:

Place your mouse on the E below and drag to the U.

Even though you can't see Him, GOD is there for yoU

After awhile you don't own stuff, stuff owns you.

Hello
Now there is one outstandingly important fact regarding Spaceship Earth, and that is that no instruction book came with it.

Another good one, after all this time, must throw out those Annual Reports going back to 1965. Are they my relics? NO! I'm there's.

Yes indeed, and others seem to have produced their own instruction books, and so religions began.

My world is a lot of clutter and I buy more to put it in. The more I buy to put it in the more clutter I buy to put.

many religions remind me of Peter Ustinov's comment once about living in Switzerland ....
"Everything is illegal in Switzerland - unless of course it is compulsory"

People think in the past, so often, and as age builds on them the more they dwell in it. For to dwell in it is to pretend to be young and not accept the truth.

I look at the rules of the establishment and I agree with everyone of them and they fit exactly into my own life style.
These rules, however, are telling me what I must do, so, I must break the rules and the establishment. Then live my life, in the future, by those exact rules.

Hello
I am neither vegetable nor mineral, therefore I am animal, so please make allowances.

Every year seems to go by faster than the one before it and the older you get the faster they go. ( Not an original thought but one that seems to come to mind a lot lately as I run out of time. So much to do, so little time left to do it.)

Its not the ability or lack of it to do. It is, the willingness to walk out of the front door and head off into what seems the wilderness.
