Creditcane™: My plane was hijacked and ruined my surprise visit to the exchanges.

DD (Du Pont)
trend=no
direction=up (1 bar)
high= 49.36
rev= 39.97; mid= 44.67


DD held its 38.2% retrace this week. It also held its weekly 3LB mid. Yes, it's an engulfing candle but we're not in an uptrend (mostly sideways). Doesn't appear ready to go down just yet but the wedge may force a decision soon.




IT HAS BEGUN. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

I'm sure you're well aware that the 'HONEY BADGERS' are most likely in a MUST WIN scenario to make it to the post season...

OTTOMAN'S EMPIRE is sitting very well to take it to 8-6 (which would relegate a 7-6-1 team to the consolation pool)...

My brother (Oriole4) & the Shitlips are locked in to seeing who is going 8-6 & who is going 7-7 (unless there is a tie, where Honey Badgers 'could still sneak in with a nod on tiebreakers)...

Anyway... What I wanted to say is... GOOD FUN!... I won't be pissed if I lose... Neither for...

- the fact that I didn't even DRAFT my team
- I managed the best with what I had
- You got a 'sneaky' WIN (which overcame a tie), on a 'correction'... Which I don't dismiss (because WHAT IS... IS)...

But I'mn just saying that... In these leagues... It's AMAZING to me how it always seems to be THAT CLOSE...

---

I also want to say that I think you made a GREAT pickup this week of Anthony Fasano... One NEVER KNOWS how it will work out, but he's EXACTLY the guy I would have picked up if I was in your shoes...

To give you some insight... You know I have JIMMY GRAHAM... But I had to plug in AARON HERNANDEZ very late season (cause the Saints had a late BYE week)... I kept AH on my roster only to foil 'Booey' (who I played last week & knew was dealing with TE issues)...

Earlier this week... SERIOUSLY DUDE... I was thinking about sending just about my entire bench to the waiver wire (cause I was figuring that you were kind of late in knowing that Fred Davis was suspended for the season)...

The thing is... I looked at all the waiver TE's & FASANO was, like 8th on the projection list... So I said "fuck that"... I'm not going to sacrifice my entire bench to scoop up players, when a SMART player might notice that FASANO was down the list and not being given credit for the fact that he's playing a sorry crew of Philly linebackers...

Anyway... it was a nifty pick-up... I hope it works well for you... Good Luck... & I suppose we'll all meet someday in ELYSIUM...

Thanks CV.

I know it's a must-win everyone...it's a really close league for sure....if I don't make the playoffs as the HIGHEST SCORING Team in the league it won't be the first time....

It's happened to me twice before....

That's the structure of FF...you can have the best scoring team, but if opposing teams score big against you, there's not too much you can do.

One of the "fun" parts of hosting large Holiday Parties and having family come to the house is you "get" to ready the house...move furniture around...re-decorate...do a bunch of yard work.

The most "fun" I have is when i get to move box springs and mattresses up and down the stairwell.

It's a real blast.

Whenever I have to do X-Mas 'tasks' (like hang lights) & look for boxes of crap I always start singing [in a snarky 'Grinch' sort of way] Christmas carols...

"Have a holly jolly Christmas..."

That's usually enough to make me start laughing about it...

what about the 'margins'?

$1000 off sales usually gets a few in the door...

margins...
...reported a 240 billion won ($213 million) operating profit in the third quarter, helped by increased shipments and sales of high-end models such as Internet TVs and LED-backlit flat-screens.
(we'll have to wait for Q4)

more margins...
Estimated monthly benefits for Basic Food:
Washington, DC
1 parent,
1 child,
gross income $2500
child care $1000 (not likely)
rent $1500 (dump)
benefits = $0.00
