You guys crack me up, everything is a fucking codex. Just like when I covered college hoops and recruiting all those years ago, Jimmy Hoopster says (or doesn't say) X, so it means Y. Same shit on the Corvette forums, everyone is clairvoyant about what Chevy is going to do with the new Z06, based on rumors, innuendo, and crystal balls. But, but, last time, the Z06 was naturally aspirated, ergo, yada yada. When the reality is, there only one Carnac. And it ain't Mercel. He's a dead chain smoker from Nebraska. And if you disagree, may a lovesick fruit fly infest your sister's melons. LOL. Hey, I've been predicting push rods in Corvettes longer than Carnac, so I've got that going for me.... |

I made sure PED saw this....is Henry Blodget in a coma to let this pro-Apple piece run? Definitely worth a read. |

I bet a virtual $5 Yarow puts the troll hat back on. It's BusinessInsider after all.
But yes, overall a stunning moment of clarity.
Btw, the new ProBoards non-app mobile version is actually not terrible.

Just saw a great new iPad Air commercial while watching the Niners/Panthers playoff game. Can't find a link but it's very well done.

That's the one, Mav. Thanks. Search didn't find it several minutes ago but I didn't check the Apple site. |

I made sure PED saw this....is Henry Blodget in a coma to let this pro-Apple piece run? Definitely worth a read. Blodget isn't really pro or anti anything; he's a mercenary, like a trader*, he just profits on clicks instead of volatility. Just so happens that trolling Apple gets the most clicks. But every once in a while, that embarrassment of a Website goes the other way to stir the pot, maybe upset some fandroids for clicks. You have to be pretty dumb and amoral to be thrown out of Wall Street by the Inspector Clouseaus who "police" Wall Street. And yet there is apparently some decent money in professional trolling... * No offense to the traders here. Just watched that, fucking epic! Ha ha, grinning troll! |

The C7 is an awesome update, though the new Mustang is arguably more profound (hello modern suspension). Yes, congratulations, Ford, on adopting the independent suspension that Corvettes have had since 1963.  My Vette barely even shakes as I belly laugh at these big, fat, slow Pony cars, due to my magneto-rheological, fluid-based Magnetic Ride Control shocks.  Yo, Ford, Samsung called, and said, "hey, start innovating!" Oh well, at least Ford didn't need a bailout. |

At the risk of talking transportation, yeah, Ford dumping the live axle was WAY overdue. And for the record, the new Vette is an impressive machine.
I have no idea what happens tomorrow with AAPL, but the last two weeks were more than a little disappointing. If we have to crush the call walls, wouldn't there be buyers wanting to buy AHEAD of next week when we expect Apple to climb?

A vet owner....that explains a lot. First of all, it is "Vette," not "vet." A vet is someone who served in a war. Many of whom own Vettes, ironically. Secondly, perhaps you could tell us what kind of cool car you drive, so I can make outlandish generalizations about their owners. |
