    Hi

    I asked my sister if she knew your neighbor and below is her response;

    Larry Garito is your next door neighbor?

    Did I mention that she is a blond????  LOL

    She obviously didn't read my email because she isn't normally that way.

    Any ways just stopped by to say Hi and wish you better luck tomorrow.  I know I can use it.

    I'm surprised Ferdenanone hasn't razed me yet on my puppy picture.  I know Ferdenanone, it is just a matter of time... LOL

    Take care of SamWham and I will take care of Egvald once I get him that is.  He was only 6 weeks old when that picture was taken.  Can't wait to see him up front and personal as they say.

    Hi Samwham!  I've been MIA for a long time, but just wanted to stop by and let you know that I am thinking of you.  I don't think I have missed much with this round of WSS since the market has been so bad!  Of course, if I had the time, I would have been here anyway!  Hope you have a great week!

    Hey Sam

    Looks like today WAS your day!  Great job!!!! :)

    I tried a bit of your stratiegy on my buy and sell today and it worked in my favor for the most part but not all.  Just as you said for yourself.

    Here's hoping tomorrow is as good for you as today was.

    Wish me luck tomorrow with my appointment with a hand surgeon.

    HI Sam

    I haven't been on line in a week or so therefore have not had a chance to write back.  I've been looking around at different profiles and it looks like alot of people did better towards the end of Oct.  Nice to see more green than red.  Mine have increase a small amount but for the most part I'm still in the red in all but one.  Now to be honest I don't know when to sell or when to sit on something.  I believe I mentioned that my knowledge of the market is limited at best.  So any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.  There is so much I need to learn.

    Also while I'm thinking of it, I haven't had a chance to talk with my sister to see if she knows your friends in the fire department.  I know that she doesn't work out of the same fire house all the time.  I guess that this in normal???? 

    Take care and good luck in November.

    PS My picture is of my youngest stray who's name is Alex.  This cat is something else, the only cat I have ever seen play with a rock, weird don't you think???

    Thanks, Sam. A rode a couple of nice waves during all of the upheaval.  Looks like you ended up riding a nice wave yourself at the end of the month.  Keep it up into November!

    Hi Samwham

    You like living in Delray Beach?  My sister works there.  I hope that you never need her services, she is a paramedic/fire fighter.   Tells me things there can be very interesting in her line of work there.  Especially a couple of years ago with the hurricanes that came in right there in Delray.

    I haven't been playing very long but the more I look at other people playing it doesn't look like many people are doing very good.  I know that I am not, but then prior to joining this game I didn't have any interest in the stock market.  I would say that the current mess we and the world are in is what made me decide that it was time to learn why I keep losing money.

    BTW, I really liked your previous picture!

    Take care and good luck this week, maybe things will start turning around at least a little bit.
