Daughter of a friend of mine keeps having the buttefly rash and shows positive on her ANA test and they still won't even bring up the word Lupus. Lupus is the first thing they test for when you have brain lesions because there's a test for it unlike much of the other junk. Even MS.

Those people aren't homeless because they are put into work camps. Also a shed 4x4 made out of cardboard is not a home. Places that don't subsidize the homeless lifestyle in multiple ways don't have homeless or very few of them. I haven't seen a homeless person in years. Too hot in the summer...

I'd say with Blizzard is more a case of trying to milk things done long ago when those people are no longer with the company and the entire industry has changed and their inter office shit has changed.

If you make 1000 shitty games before you have a good one I would say past performance has been a good indicator of future performance. If a guy worked for me and fucked up 1,000 things before he got one right or even one beyond right he would not be a good employee.

He's been mostly dead lol. He's kind of fallen off the cliff for a while. I guess the virus shutdown didn't help but his other problems. Didn't think of him as dead, just mostly dead. I like the headline though, using the jaws of life. I got pulled out of a wreck 30 years ago using those. I...

Yeah whole market has come up since I first looked earlier at the sectors.

I keep reading deals about FB lately, don't own it anyway. About the difficulty they have selling ads now. Some emails or messages leaked between some employes there about how bad it was for a company to spend money on FB advertising. I can see that.

Unlike the stock market past performance does have an indicator of future performance.

scleroderma. Basically eliminate everything possible under the sun it cane be, then maybe. Would account for the brain lesions since it's much like lupus and that it does that which is why they work hard to relimate Lupus first from MS. The skin pain, the elevated heart rate and breathing...

Consumer Staples and Real Estate only two secotrs green, by the slimest of margins.

Till power prices triple.

While they are at it sure a VAT will be next. What could go wrong. Must not let peons buy stocks. I'm sure high frequency trades will be exempt. https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/21/investing/white-house-stock-tax-gamestop/index.html

SEC doesn't regulate crypto as a security. Yet....

I don't know about Dallas and such. I haven't talked to the one person I know that lives there in a few days. In Baton Rouge they opened up curches so people could come in all afternoon heated and save their firewood/propane/generator gas.

Did she drive around all day to find an abandoned parking garage to park at?

No takers on that bet. Not even a shell of what they used to, a shell would be an improvement.

Bummer, thought the snow and ice was heavy enough to have knocked of all the pine straw on the shop I was going to have to get off. Shit melted, noep just hiding it blah lol.

Yeah apmex sets it on gold value. I look from time to time over the years. They put a premium to get a certain year and you pay less to get "random year" and such. Also I think there's a small premium for coins that are just rolled out by one of the mints. One demand settles out it's just based...

And we will be paying $1,000 for a candy bar.

Governor of TX now allowing off road diesel on road vehicles. Same damn exact thing, just offroad is dyed so DOT or cops can check to see if you paid road taxes on the diesel unlike ag and industrial stuff. I foresee major pissed off people in the future having died diesel or some left over...

Memphis airport was closed earlier due to no water. Passangers only, FedEx still open. https://www.bizjournals.com/memphis/news/2021/02/19/airport-closed-due-to-water-pressure-woes.html

This afternoon had a 4" deep river of water running 10' wide through the lot from the melting snow/ice.

Like my Moto G Stylus, very similar to the Power. I am not a power user in the least and I got it at WalMart a while back for $89.

Krispy Kreme is giving away a special donut to celebrate the landing. Haven't seen it just heard it.

Heat wave now. Went out and smoked a cigar. Had to come in and pee twice the ice and snow melting louder than a 2" rain storm.

Not all of it focused on Texas. Some LA, MS and the coal industry as a whole. I rambled on for someone that asked when I was up all night trying to get the pain to pass. I posted much of it before. Death by a 1,000 cuts. I can't even imagine on the regulation and management side. I'm just on the...

All that in that post was released in the news either at the time or as of late. I'm in MS now and the nuclear plant power was on the news giving an update on what they were doing. We've had one outage of less than an hour. All 3 within 1-1/2 hours of here. The contract was a big deal with...

And the last 15 years servicing the power plant industry along with the petro chem industry. I should spoiler and post the ginourmous long post I sent to someone I knew this morning it's very very long. Just the shit I run into with power plants and the shit that happens to them and gets idled...

You can only shift power so far. The adjacent states are in the same shape but it doesn't make news because they are a much smaller state. OK was -17F. LA lost major sections of power they are still working on. The nuclear plant outside New Orleans, River Bend just north of Baton Rouge, and the...

Have some XOM, from back when it was still XON. They used to give stocks or options to buy stocks at a discount for reaching certain goals during a turnaround. Had it for about 25 years. The dividend has well paid for and then some. Was really surprised to get one this year. They are under a lot...

Magic 8 ball says, sure why not. I am not a professional broker or investment consultant, take all advice with a grain of salt.

I think I'm going to wait till they get to the end. How long that will be dunno.

Still wondering about the co-op power in TX works. Two different people on two different co-ops had a total outage of 20 minutes total. I had co-op when I lived there. The good part about it was the office/yard for all the workers and repair stuff was 15 minutes away.

I was still trying to figure out how much a billion hundreth of penny was in real money.

Obama weanted to break up the organization in TX that oversees the grid so that CA could tap into it to get power. Talked to someone else in northeast TX and they are on a different co-op and never lost power either. So co-ops worked apparently, not sure how their contracts work. But you have...

https://www.complex.com/style/judge-rules-revlon-lenders-keep-500-million-citigroup-accidental-wire-transfer Ooops. Citigroup, which was acting as Revlon’s loan agent, sent $893 million to Revlon’s lenders, seemingly paying off the makeup company’s debt that wasn’t due until 2023. Citi had...

It's open at 4am without the thugs and lowlifes associated with some other places at 4am. It's now owned by a venture capitalist group out of Chicago.

Makers found a new top price for the market that could be supported, in low numbers but supported anyway.
