TraderMike and I are moving forward with WallStrip . Just a blank site now but I will be announcing the date of first show in a week or so. Before the sweaty wisecracks start – let me say that there is 140 percent humuidity in Atlanta and I have been flying around the country for …

Ebay – the new whipping Boy
Just like good news seems to beget good news, bad news begets bad news. Our lovely $345 billion tax gap is now up to the internet retailers and the lower-middle class to bear the burden if the internet tax passes. Nice. Here is the full story . Not a fun time these days for Ebay. …
Pluto is Out – I never liked Pluto
I am short the planet Pluto. I assume all American : “dwarfs” will now be up in arms. BUT,… Let me just say that Pluto never deserved to be part of Solar System. Too many franchises and bad accounting. Finally a good decision is made under this administration. I assume Disney will be dropping Pluto …
Web 4.48 and Hotlanta!
Web 4.48. I have seen it and it is cool :) They also have sushi in Louisville. I could live here. I see that CNET is now saying that YouTube could be a steal at $1 billion, something that I have been saying for a while now. Of course it takes Sony to make them …
Many losses today and not in the stock market
I had the following taken from me today at the airport: Deodorant Zit cream Metrogel (microscopic travel tube) Playboy? – not liquid I can live with that – but the genius who tossed my bag on the counter to shag my stuff – spidered my 17 inch Mac Screen that has been my travel blankie …

Louisville – No passport necessary
Beautiful day in a nice city. How the hell do you get one of these Grouper videos to stop playing on your site? I am aggravated from listening to that Kung-Fu video – HELP!
Sony buys Grouper – Not quite Apple buying YouTube, but interesting gauntlet nonetheless…
Sony takes a $65 million cash leap into the video sharing space. Cool. I just signed up for an account. Pretty easy process. BUT, a nightmare on Safari and not the easy-one click loading process they promised me to WordPress. Then again, I am an no techno wiz. I have read the chain of Grouper …
Should Apple Buy You Tube? Of Course ! They should have listened to me and already bought RIMM (Blackberry)
Man – I can’t believe that I have not speculated on this before. It makes for such awesome fun to visualize the possibilities. Doing my late night Techmeme read and see that . The New York Times has picked up on a GigaOM story (bloggers trump journalists again) that speculates Apple buying YouTube From the …
From a Nasdaq bubble to a housing bubble – Are we ready to learn anything?
You won’t learn anything from watching CNBC or social stock picking networks. NOISE. You don’t need to pay big fees for walled stock market picks and pans. You can learn from my market blogroll. Pretty much everything you need. No subscription costs. It is hard to see a bubble when it is occurring. It is …
