Pig Pile !!!!!!


Sure looks like it, doesnt it? Remember playing that as a kid? Amazing more people werent just squished to death...lol.

Anyway, for whatever reasons, the bears are piling on during this swoop down, expecting more weakness to follow. They could get it right this time....or maybe not. :) There should be, by now, a pretty good sized boatload of 'em short as all hell....no reason for the boys not to take them to the cleaners. Keep in mind, I still have unreached targets above the 1,200 zone and I believe we see this done before long.

In the world of greenage, project #3, the compost tumbler, is coming along just fine. Actually I am building two, the prototype, which I will give to my sister-in-law Jane, and one for ourselves. In fact, I am about to head out the door now to deliver her compost maker....she's into that sort of thing, so she should appreciate it....especially since its free, better built than anything you can buy, and delivered to your door fully assembled !! (I must admit, I am just the greatest brother in law anyone could have. :-)

DIY (Do It Yourself) Project #3

The markets are just too damn depressing. First there's drops, and droops, and now there's looming taxes.

Let's build something ! Green project #3 (since the hydro job is on hold pending further data gathering), will be the construction of a build-it-yourself compost tumbler. Those of you who have vegetable or flower gardens should appreciate this. Compost is to gardens as blood is to animals. It truly is the lifeblood of plants.

So, the idea is to build a large enough bin to store the compostable material (table vegetable scraps, lawn clippings, leaves, etc, etc, etc, etc) We dont want something we have to pitchfork every friggin weekend and bust your balls just to get it to work. So here's what we do. Go out and get yourself a 55 or 65 gallon plastic drum with a removeable top. See picture below (how about that snow, huh?). I bought two of these beauties from Bob the Barrel Man (seriously) here locally for $25 each. These are rugged plastic barrels which were used to store and ship hot peppers from Peru to their destination I believe somewhere in Connecticut. They have a nice black cover that easily unscrews for simply filling and emptying of the barrels. Very nice. More later on how we put the whole package together.

On a seperate note, my digital camera seems to be on the fritz. Although pushing 10 years old, it seems to washing out pictures with too much light at times. As if the shutter is staying open a tad longer than it should. Maybe a little oil is needed !! :)



Pop Goes the Weasel


Ha, ha, ha... I dont really think it will be that easy, do you? Who knows, maybe thats the way the boys in control wanted this run to end.

I still have unreached targets above the market in the 1,200 zone and dont forget that Tom Drakes 2cs seems to be pointing towards sentiment behavior right now more characteristic of a bull market as opposed to a bear market rally. And then there's the elliot wave....I repeat, and then there's the elliot wave....which tells us absolutely nothing because all previous E-wave guesses have been wrong, no two people can agree on a count and its all useless drivel to begin with anyway. So forget about paying any attention to anyone claiming to have the guru answers through elliot wave. Aint gonna happen unless its purely by luck. The whole thing about a stopped clock being right twice a day really does apply to these people.

So, where do I stand from a tidal perspective? Mid february I have been saying all along we will have a meaningful correction. I'll hopefully post the substantiating chart next weekend. Until then, hang on through these pre-prepatory major correction convulsions....it doesnt reverse on a dime, right ?
