Forum: Life outside of wine

No Politics.

  1. Gold

    I tried shorting GLD this morning in pre-market and...I couldn't, no shares were available for shorting! Is the short squeeze on? Will be interesting to watch it today.

  4. What's up ?

    I have nothing to say but thought I'd start a random thread to talk about anything since no one is saying much around these parts. I'm listening to Frank Sinatra, drinking a bottle of (you guessed it) Ketcham Pinot. The weather is cool today, hit a high of 72, maybe. Giants lost their game...

  5. Roger Clemens...Hall of Famer?

    If convicted of all counts (6 I believe) he faces 15 to 21 months in jail. Should he then be elected into the hall of fame?

  10. Is Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations a show you would want to see?

    The P.R. Director of my Charity has urged the Board of Directors to cut a deal with Anthony Bourdain to perform the week of the Scottsdale Culinary Festival. He is not inexpensive. Is this a show that anyone has seen or that they would be willing or want to see? All opinions are appreciated....

  11. Could today be the turn to a new Bear Market.

    The dramatic selloff of the Euro, incredibly low interest rates on long term treasuries, Head and Shoulder tops on the S&P and Naz action smells to me like we are at or very close to a new downtrend. I'm glad I didn't buy expensive 09 Bordeaux, they may cost less next year.

  14. So a Pirate walks into a Wine Bar

    A pirate walked into a Wine bar, and the bartender said, "Hey, I haven't seen you in a while. What happened? You look terrible." "What do you mean?" said the pirate, "I feel fine." "What about the wooden leg? You didn't have that before." "Well," said the pirate, "We were in a battle,...
