Random Thoughts (Brain Droppings)
1) Overheard at my doctor’s office, a nurse to a female patient being weighed, “Your toes are so cute!” I could never get away with saying that to a client.
2) I am glad my wife and I were able to close our refi last month. ARMs are evil.
3) My next car will have to satisfy my family’s needs and the mid-life crisis I have scheduled. Any suggestions?
4) Anyone that does not have at least 5% of their portfolio in micro/small caps should reconsider. There are some fantastic small companies out there poised for growth.
5) Shania Twain is nice to look at but that does not mean I want to be in her company.
6) When looking for new stocks I do my best to think like Lynch or Graham.
7) I will only buy the iPad if it comes with a customized back that reads “Don’t Panic!”
8) I want to use a flamethrower to kill the carpenter bees that have decided my deck makes for an awesome home. I know doing so would spell disaster.
9) I started a new way of eating. I’m not going to refer to it as a diet, the word has negative connotations. I have not lost much so far but feel better and the effect on the weekly grocery bill has been significant.
10) This weekend my son, a toddler, and I are going to start a container garden. I bought two new pots (12” x 12” x 12”) and some garden soil for the project. I already have a packet of peas and mint. Any other suggestions? I thought about carrots but have no idea how they would do in a container. I also bought a third blackberry bush to add to the back yard.
