» Kirk - Did Korn Pay Brinker off?

My guess is the boreing shows are good for David Korn's business as most of us turn it off.

I stopped the RealAudio "Politalk" and turned the sound back up on the Bronco/Raider game that I had on the TV. The first hour was all I could take.

The chat was a blast as usual and well worth listening to SOME of the show just to have stuff to joke about!

IF I realy cared what Brinker had to say about the market, I think I'd just subscribe to the Korn summaries and stop listening to the show and then read on the weekend if anything important was said by Brinker about the market.

What I did enjoy in the past was Bob talking about trading. Most of us are smart enough to know you "only" have to beat the coin toss and expenses to come out ahead trading (often hard to do). That simply means you WILL make bad trades but your goal is to make more good ones compared to bad ones and do so enough to beat expenses. Bob seems to feel if he can't get them all right, it is a terrible thing and he can never admit he blew one. THAT is entertaining to listen to how he avoids admitting to bad trades. 8)

Can always check out the FREE summaries on bobbrinker.com. But you need to read David's stuff for the insight, links and humor.

» Kirk - Oops....

sorry about that. I'm not a legal eagle.

I wonder if the San Jose Mercury paid that Aussie Ian Thorpe any money to run a picture of him on the front page today? They even had an "interpretation" of the swimming he did in the Olympics. He set records in the Olympics the other day in case you missed it. Boy, they have it right down to details as to fractions of a second as to the times he swam. Of course, they have "additional" information like what the previous record was.

» Oaktoad - Kirk, you see the pictures etc are news....

While Korn was stealing...

Korn's big mistake was not calling his publication a newspaper with a featured column about BB and his views .. as a newspaper you can steal as much info as you want, publish it and no one can say a thing...

I think Jack Swanson may even have a recent photo of Brinker that could be used in the article. On the other hand, using that picture may cause additional problems with the PETA people. Beaver rights/protection, etc...

» Oaktoad - I think a picture of BB would be good.. always nice to see equal

treatment of the folically impaired.. right Kirk.

I can make jokes about the lack of hair as I am a member of that group..

For years I have felt that the government owes me a hair transplant as the lack of self esteem that I feel due to this condition hampers my ability to cope with life.

the same logic applies to boob jobs.. I think all women should be able to get one paid for by the government so that they don't have to have self esteem problems too.. especially as the democratic controlled Hollywood does so much to promote "big boobies" .. it seems only fair...

Yes indeed "running and jumping" is the beauty of Baywatch...

» KLR - Boob Jobs.

Paul, you say that all women should be entitled to get one paid for...What about the other one? But then I have seen quite a few unfinished government projects before.
