Frank, I took my money out of mattresses, and put it into socks. Old, smelly, socks. No one will look there.

howdy, steve c.

Just above, in a post to Warren, you intimated that folks “could make big money if they were to do the inverse” of my bold prediction.” Ergo, I gave you a bold prediction.

Now, you change your mind.

And, what’s your mba got to do with it?

hey frank,

I have an MBA; what makes you think I’d listen to financial advice from someone who can’t even master fifth grade punctuation?

hey steve c,

i think the stock market rise is going to go on unabated. pull out any money you have in mattresses, and put it in stocks. have you noticed how many mattress stores there are nowadays? i think the mattress market is way over-sold, and due for a punishing pull-back.

so steve c, don’t put your money in mattresses. pile it into U.S. stocks.

Let’s see, pammala, the king of writing, grammar and punctuation butchering, points out a mistake that the post author corrected on her own 24 minutes later and LONG before pammala made her idiotic comment? The same mistake that suzie has made MULTIPLE times without pammala commenting on it?

pammie, quit raiding the cheap wine section.

Please stop picking on pammala. She’s my new friend. She said I was talented, remember?

J.M. White:

“Does ignoring proper syntax while chastising another for incorrect word usage qualify as irony or hypocrisy?”

All of that squabbling over speeling and grammar detracts from the blog. They’re digging their early graves over there worrying about such.

Warren @ 1:39,

That’s nothing; believe it or not, hey frank was insisting right up the election that the state of Wisconsin was going “hook, line and sinker” for Tommy Thompson, Paul Ryan and Mitt.

Whenever hey frank makes a bold prediction, you can make big money betting on the exact inverse occurring. In fact, I think Nate Silver was so accurate because he indexed his predictions to 180 degrees opposite of suz’s and hey frank’s big pronouncements.
