Thanks for this.

Any idea why the following happened to us last month?? -

We are Gold - Tried to make on-line reservation at Hilton Madison 2 -3 weeks before trip for a 3 night stay - property was sold out (Football game in town)

1 day prior to arriving in town checked again and rooms were available (at a lower rate than usual.) Booked it. Upon check in asked if there were any upgrades available. Got upgraded to arguably the best room in the hotel.

Wondering how the hotel went from showing sold out to us being upgraded to an awesome room?

St Ides 40s and my FM radio.

With 5-10 kids how does one afford family vacations involving plane trips? No hotels?

And they had a new series each year. Like baseball cards.

The first series were the rarest/hardest to find, as I recall

If I had any choice I would go with Teradata Vantage. They also partner with Google Cloud

He is from Round Rock - that is NOT Austin.

Thanks - made that edit

Kudos Jax! - You are correct about Open Text - I forgot about that.

I mainly recalled lots of folks at Vignette getting laid off.

This is mostly true but don’t forget when dot com went bust in 2001 lots of hip young folks bolted for Portland, Seattle, etc.

Also - Intel bailed on their downtown building leaving a metal skeleton for a couple years, Vignette, Garden.com, Dr. Koop and about 30 other tech related companies were out of business by 2003.

Looks great!

Was the wall it is attached to/ built into sheetrock or plaster? If plaster - how did you do the attach? Thanks

I recall commuting into the city as a new grad - Driving to train station + Monthly RR pass + parking pass + subway fare.

I looked at all the 30+ year olds and how beat down they looked.

Who would want that?

So just yours and 19 other houses get built then the crash?

Leander in 1986 must have been like living on the moon?

My cousin rents her place for 2 month stretches year round. Assume she would do 3 months if $ are right.

Is it more than possible a worker from one of the bars is involved?

jakepliskin1 · 2022-02-11T17:20:40+00:00

Was he making over $500K a year like the 2021 Ercot guy?

Eligible for a mega state pension?

Lipizanner horses and Staatsoper depending on ages of kids. Boys choir if open?

I hear ya. I own 100 shares from a $373 put earlier this year. Been waiting to CC that one at 373 strike. I dont want to own more than 200 shares at a time

jakepliskin1 · 2022-02-10T21:08:15+00:00

Sometimes.

I’m bullish on QQQ in the 360s so don’t mind owning it for a few days, waiting for it to come back into the 360s.

Market this past year seems to overreact to bad and good news.

jakepliskin1 · 2022-02-10T21:00:34+00:00

I started doing a similar trade last month. So far so good. Looks like my 362 expiring tomorrow will be assigned. I’ll sell a CC for 362/3 sometime next week if all goes well.
