It’s pretty sweet so no need to blog until Sunday. Staying at Pablo Escabar’s old compound where the owner told us of blood stained walls and other sickness from this house and the stretch of drug running beach we are inhabiting. Supposedly haunted as well. Watching some Scooby-Doo episodes on iTunes to get in the …

Wallstrip Updates Gold…With Julie
Wallstrip first looked at Gold after the spike to $700 way back in 2006 . A deep correction followed taking gold below $600. Today, Julie gives us an update with the metal over $900 . With my sale of Apple stock, GLD is the longest running position in my portfolio with PAAS and SLW not …
Sotheby's Indicator…Checking In
Art is on my mind these days. Whenever Ellen and I travel, we look for local artists and generally buy something for our home. Whatever we buy, it could turn out to be a better investment than the market at this point :). In April 2007 I started getting concerned for the market based on …
VSocial…YouTube Can't Be Everything to EveryBody
The team at VSocial did an amazing job partnering with TheKnot.com for a wedding contest. Take a look . What you notice is what you can’t see. It looks like a perfect extension of TheKnot’s brand and website. The Knot can drive it’s own heavy traffic there, get sponsors to help promote it and keep …

Foreclosure…FAILURE Happens
Seeing that Foreclosure is on my mind this weekend, it is fitting to talk about failure. I have failed many times. Forget the stock market where I fail everyday, but in business. During the Nasdaq bubble, when everyone thought they were smart, I wanted to be a shipping magnate. I was part of a roll-up …
Foreclosures…The Circle of Life!…And Citibank is Scum
If you think the bank won’t foreclose on you – you should head to Mexico next week with me (I will be vacationing – not hiding – with Mrs. Lindzon) – because they will and are ready. You can’t even begin thinking about a bottom in banks until we see the banks just own up …
Chipotles…Adios Amigo?
It looked like I would be stopped out of my last bit of Chipotle’s this morning. It was upsetting for sure because I have owned it from day one and been blogging about it pre-IPO. There must be 100 posts where I have mentioned it . With it’s close back above $104 I will keep …
