Just stopping by to say Hello

[PoorHomey]

Got to hang out with Jack for a few hours in San Antonio this past weekend and it made me realize just how much I missed this place...

Got to have breakfast, drink coffee, and reminisce about the good old days in the land of Fastopia and my many attempts to inject some humor via lame MS Paint graphics and silly videos. Brought back a ton of memories of CosmicHemorroids, Brosins, Road to Opex contests and Timber Vs Sloop political showdowns.. If you're reading this, I probably asked Jack if you were still around and how you were doing these days...

I haven't been trading at all the last couple years but Jack let me know that leveraged ETFs were under fire these days.. Guess it's almost time to log into my account and see how my 1 share of TZA from 2012 is doing while I still can!!!

Hope all of y'all have been doing well - will try to stop by a bit more often.

Gang! It was GREAT meeting up with PH! He drove all the way from Austin while we were in San Antonio (seeing our granddaughter graduate from USAF Basic at Lackland AFB).

I told Kyle that in this shot he looks like the cat which had just eaten the canary!!! Bwahahahahahaaa! I love it.

Thanks Novi!
Smart kid she is - scored high on the tests the USAF offered her any job she wants - she settled on a job which puts her at the tip of the spear.

Apparently I don't have my 1 share of TZA anymore...

No but $13 bucks is good for at least two good-sized BREAKFAST BURRITOS in Austin, right? Or are they inflated there too?

Well, nobody and I mean NOBODY here says "breakfast burrito" - you'd probably get some seriously funny looks if you asked for one.. It's like calling sodas/soft drinks "pop" - it instantly lets people know that you aren't from around here and while people in Texas have historically been known to be freiendly and welcoming to all, with the massive influx of residents from elsewhere in the US as well as our Southern border - folks have become a bit xenophobic.. We have breakfast "tacos", and people take them very, very seriously... Just ask this guy - if you can find him... I think he's still in hiding.

Oh my......now I understand why the owner in the local Mexican restaurant around the place we stayed gave me such a queer look and said something about only offering breakfast tacos!!!!! I regret now going on the cheap and eating that B&B brekkers we had.

Dang man I wish you had spoken up!

Bwahahahahahaaa!

$14.99 will get you a "Don Silva" 4+lb breakfast taco stuffed with Bacon, Eggs, Cheese, potatoes, Refried beans, Sausage and Chorizo... Served in one of those cardboard containers a case of beer comes in... I don't think they provide nutritional information and even if they did I don't think you wanna know!

After seeing that food why do I wanna start singing James Taylor's "Fire and Rain" but substituting "Tacos" for "Rain"?

"I've seen tacos and I've seen rain....."

Bwahahahaha!
