Later That Night at 2006-03-22 12:06:58
OK, slot machines ceased being my friends.
I'm at some diner. Veggie burger. My friends either crashed or are playing at the tables. I'll heae there next.
I feel like I've lost contact with the real world. Oh sure, I see Fox new in the Hotel with all these politicians. The more I see politicians the more I think they're morons. I can also listen to streams from the web on my Treo. But... What is going on out there? The dude on my finance stream is talking about the housing bubble and everyone else is comparing Bush to Hitler.
Eh whatever.
Pretty exciting blogging from Las Vegas eh? Well...
I like Duke giving nine tomorrow.
March Madness: Friday at 2006-03-22 12:06:58
Okay, so I've been drunk for three days straight. Don't judge me.
I've hardly had anything to eat today except for a couple of salads. Oh... and beer. Which I'm now officially calling biodeisel for humans.
My buddy shacked up with an asian blackjack dealer last night. I tried with a few and thought I was setting up pretty for one... eh, nuthin. The joke was on me.
Oh... the market. I have no idea. I'll be home sunday to run scans but nothing really happened while I've been away running on human biodeisel anyways.
I'm still running even on sports bets but making some on the slots.
Thanks to those who emailed me that Melissa got the boot from the American Idol island. She needed to go....
Okay... the night is still young...
Go UCLA
Don't Let the Bedbugs Bite at 2006-03-22 12:06:58
 - Last night on NBC's Dateline, they ran a story about bedbugs. Yes, those bedbugs. The insects of beddy-bye rhymes. After being gone for decades due to heavy pesticide and insecticide use, they seem to be back, and infesting hotels and dorms. The story surmised that they've come from overseas on travelers.
- Last night I had a dream that I was bitten by a bug, had a rash all over, and had to go to the doctor. Shame on me for even watching that dumb NBC Dateline anyways!
- It's been almost a week since I've looked at my stock charts. I've read some blogs and some guru opinions. Most are still anticipating a major correction or bear market. The market action last week didn't sound too healthy. I'm running my scans now, so

 "Look, I spenda lot of time in this boardroom. This boardroom is one of the best boardrooms in New York city. I have meetings in this boardroom year round. Many important people come to this boardroom. But none are as important as me. About 9 months ago, I had a meeting in this boardroom with my wife Melania. George and Carolyn were at that meeting, and they said it was a fantastic meeting. That's it. Now go." - The Simpsons getting a new contract for 2 more seasons!

Black Box Thoughts at 2006-03-22 12:06:57
- I'm generally bullish and believe the trend is up. I use my Black Box scans as intermediate tells to increase or decrease volatility. Nothing I'm seeing today will cause me to do anything. I'm still 100% long, with some beta that I added the week prior to options week.
- Running my scans, and seeing some sells the past two sessions in DVY and regional banks. A sell on the retail Holders, too. Nasdaq 100 and the semis look to be trying to turn up here, but no signal yet. Not that any of this means anything but I thought I'd mention it. Maybe a flat to slightly down week here heading into monthly strength next week would be a good thing.
- I had a buy signal on GE in early February, and now it's looking kind of toppy and could generate a sell anytime. I didn't buy any in February, unfortunately.
- I had a sell on PNC awhile back, and it continues to look weak.
- Eh, we'll see. I get
