    Breaking Bad

    Back next month. Best writing I've ever seen on tv.

    A Farewell to Football

    Nice write-up. Two paragraphs is the average attention span nowadays. You didn't know? Won't miss football at all. A god, somebody mentioned the World Cup. In 3D. That could f*ck up my preparation for next season. My calendar... Oh, maybe I'll throw out the horses this year! Yes...

    Movies discussion - 2/8/10

    Streep is to actresses what Brando is to actors. Redefined the art.

    Movies discussion - 2/8/10

    Saw Book of Eli last night. Dark and gritty, but missed a sense of humor. Still, I could learn to wear a sword, shotgun, knife, and ax.

    Football is over, and I a big investing void to fill

    Looked into it some years ago, but it was hard to find the same type of stats as for American sports. May give it another shot. There's Rugby League, Rugby Union, and Aussie Rules. http://www.afl.com.au/

    Who?

    Just realized why it bothered me... "Hope I die before I get old." lol

    Who?

    I dunno. Somehow it bothers me greatly that a band that was once considered armed and dangerous was being 'honored' in this way, long after the last electrifying drop of danger had leaked out of them. Beethoven's mummy has more rock'n'roll left in him.

    any good super bowl commercials?

    The SB ads were so flat and boring it was almost funny. If anyone gets overly creative the ad is refused these days. The price of corporate fascism.

    Who?

    Is it just me or does the Who look ridiculously outdated? Hope they don't play My Generation...

    Super Bowl Play

    Saints my sentimental favorite, but my numbers point the other way. Colts ATS.

    NBA totals

    Just a side bet. Not the totals method I described. Halftime at NYK@CLE. Pregame total 201. Halftime total 128. 2H total 99. I'm taking the 2H Over 99. NYK can only run up and down floor, and CLE is up by 20 pts, so no reason for them to emphasize defense. The shootout may slow down some...

    Got my first Oscar wager in

    One third scientology, one third marriage, one third gay husband. Shake.

    Got my first Oscar wager in

    I know. Here the Joker was playing the role of his life, and Bruce Wayne is supposed to be in love with that?

    Got my first Oscar wager in

    Haven't seen that movie, MC, but another down-on-his-luck character? Not much of a stretch for actors. They either lived it or are still living it (Rourke). I suppose there's a few guys here that could pull it off. (I thought Joaquin Phoenix did a great Johnny Cash. No Oscar. At least as...

    stock market

    I love volatility too RageWizard. I'm not a bear at all, MF. Last thing I want is for this fragile economy to crash. But I can't ignore the obvious. By the way. Last hour or so of trading today. On a Friday (!) full of fear the Dow suddenly bounces back. ;) Good to know the ol' Plunge...

    stock market

    My negative marker was 2/4 and 2/5 (for high instability). I hadn't looked beyond it, because I wanted to see how it would play out. But today I did a projection for the next six weeks. This thing could actually crash. I have a negative marker for 3/1, followed by another negative marker...

    Driving Etiquette

    Almost congratulated a driver today, after he finally pulled over, on being the worst driver in the world. Glad I didn't. About two miles down the road I came across the real worst driver in the world.
