Test YHOO
- Barrons says that The Google isn't overvalued. Heck, it's in the early innings. This post is just testing embedding a widget in the blog post. Kind of cool if it works.
- I have two bags of Halloween candy. 300 pieces total, but I may have snitched 2-3 Snickers along the way.

Carrie Ann Inaba
I was listening to the local news station on the drive in to work today. A new ad hit the airwaves as Carrie Ann Inaba was pitching a "free" 2-nights and 3-days trip to Las Vegas to see a new night act. This "free" getaway is sponsored by Tahiti Village. I have a hunch there will be a very veracious attempt to sell visitors a timeshare on their visit. Why would anyone want a timeshare in Las Vegas? The hotels on the strip are inexpensive. Even less expensive if you're gambling and receive comps (for losing money in the casino).My thoughts on timeshares? Expensive way to pay for a vacation. Folks who I know that one them, seem to feel generally ripped off by buying from a salesperson at the timeshare presentation. They tend to enjoy the first few trips, but then are always trying to exchange their timeshares or get coworkers/friends to rent a trip. They often enjoy their trips, but agree that it's not quite the money saver they thought it would be. Plus, it would mean that you're vacationing to the same destination every trip, unless you exchange.
See Timeshare User's Group for some fun and crazy stories about people and their timeshare presentations and experiences with being a timeshre owner. You'll see tales of buyers remorse, folks trying to sell, buy, and exchange, and reviews of various timeshare destinations.
The only way they'd get me to a timeshare presentation? If the "free" offer included 2-nights with Carrie Ann Inaba.
Tila Tequila
- Apple (AAPL) is up 741% after hours on their earnings. Just kidding, 7.41% (as I type). More fun removing the decimal places, no? Seems like there are these things out there called "iPods" and "iPhones." I guess not everyone has twelve of them, yet. Are folks are upgrading every few weeks to a smaller size or a newer color? "15,000 songs and blue is so September 2007, Grandpa."
- Looking for a "triple-buy" stock? The Mad Money Machine podcast has your sure-thing, can't lose winner. To qualify, a stock must be listed on the Magic Formual Investor website, be in the IBD 100, and have a buy recommendation from Jim Cramer. Buy! Buy! Buy! Kind of clever. Kind of funny. Give it a listen.
- Easier than Tom Brady throwing touchdown passes against the Dolphins defense!
- Ugh, my star Fantasy Football Running Back, Dolphins' Ronnie Brown, is out for the season with a torn ACL. Good Lord.
- Buzzworthy? Tila Tequila search hits up wondering if she's bi curious. LOL. Oh, you want a link? Formerly Tila Nguyen. Not sure, but I think so. The search for pictures and videos for the A Shot at Love girl are buzzing.
Downside Reversal (and Michelle Rodriguez!)
- Uh oh. Reversal to the downside. Bleh. Hate to see a market moving up and the whooosh down on heavy volume. It's not uncommon to get one-day wonders to the downside in a bull run. But we'll have to keep an eye on things to see if we get some confirmation that the party is over. I'm remaining 100% long for now.
- From Yahoo Finance: After all, the indices have made a remarkable, and unsustainable, run off their lows since August 16. To this point, at their highs today, the Nasdaq, Russell 2000, S&P 500 and Dow, were up 17%, 16%, 15% and 13% from their August 16 lows. That's quite a run since the lows.
- Of course, many have been hoping for a bit of a pullback to get a decent entry point instead of chasing things at new highs. The seasonal investors would probably like to see that, too. We're closing in on November, so a MACD crossover to the darkside followed by a crossover back up would trigger a buy for some of those folks at this time of year.
- Speaking of downside reversals... In Drunken Girls Gone Wild news, former Lost actress Michelle Rodriguez (Ana Lucia) gets sentenced to 180 days in jail. Even with an alcohol monitoring ankle bracelet on, Michelle couldn't stay away from the fire water.
- From Star Gossips.... Michelle Rodriguez is a drinking machine. When it comes to alcohol, she makes Lindsay Lohan look like a nun. I guarantee Michelle will snap at least three guards’ necks, jump out a third story window and crash the prison laundry truck into a bar. Then she’ll guzzle her own weight in whiskey. .... So I met Michelle at a bar and when I failed to chug a bottle of rum in 30 seconds she threw a barstool at my nuts and questioned my sexuality. Is it wrong to be turned on by that?
- I don't like to commit time to new TV shows that I suspect will be cancelled. The Bionic Woman, Journeyman, Cane, Chuck, and Life have all been asked for additional scripts. I've DVRed a few of those, but haven't watched any yet!
- Vinny Testeverde signed yesterday, and may start this weekend for the Carolina Panthers as David Carr "throws gingerly" in practice. I wouldn't be bidding on the Vin-man this weekend for your fantasy football team. Unders look good. Panthers probably won't score. Poor WR Steve Smith. Running all those routes for nuthin'...
