In the Face of All Annihilation, I Will Always Maintain a Level of Grace...

Elegant. In the end, my family always tries to have a little grace in whatever we do... This black inking under the dermis of my left bicep is a simple portrait of the icon Audrey Hepburn, recieved in Brussels. I do believe she is the only Hollywood personality that I ever had the faintest interest in. There are no more to praise these days. I make it clear that I do not like any of her movies, although I have all of them. What I am fond of is her acting ability as a whole. If she simply chose better scripts, she would have been the best. On par with Grace Kelley or Bette Davis.

You've Been Calling Yourself a Genius Since you Were Seventeen...

The commercial I had the tearful pleasure of seeing on Super Sunday started of with this question: "Do you feel you are not getting the job you deserve because you don't have a high school diploma?" Well, to cut to the chase, they made a point that this 'diploma' was a 'real' high school diploma. I don't understand the discretion. What's the difference? How could there be a more 'real' high school diploma, and what would that merit? From the fry machine to the burger grill? Head Burger Chef? But the gist of this was that they made it a point that you receive a nice certificate diploma and.... AND... a CLASS RING. A class ring. Yes. A class ring. And they showed it all nice in its sterling cubic zirconia beauty. The Conclusion? I felt like crying. Imagine going on a date with a lady who was wearing this very ring in pride, or if your mother enrolled herself in this. Or anyone for that matter. Such sorrow-agh forget it.

Meet the New Boss...Same as the Old Boss...

We're cold. We're hungry, Daddy... Hay is safe from the Feds, but not from the FED. 4th Quarter GDP Advanced: 3.1% annualized, well off the 4.0% pace set in the previous quarter... Quote from Treasury Secretrary Snow, "The addition of 2.3 million jobs and a solid year-over-year growth rate of 4.4 percent show the strength of our nation's economy." 2.3 million jobs? That means nothing to us. 2.3 million McJobs is not going to generate consumer spending, let alone wage competition. Snow and Greenspan have to go... Greenspan the One Trick Pony, has chased the economy straight up and then straight down since 99' and left it in shambles with his dizzying ditzy rate hikes and surprise cuts, seriously, a white trash 13 year old girl in a public highschool could have better held the reigns of what would have been the greatest catalyst for overall gross domestic happiness better than this glasses wearing, has been, drooling at the lip... Well, it's dinner time, children. I added some Tabasco to the ramen, but no eggs for nutrition supplement...

I Tip My Hat to the New Constitution, Take a Bow for the New Revolution...

Seen here in a Reuters photo, my Porcelain Daughter, Lockheed Hayheehoo (Hay), has cast her vote in Basra, Iraq... She is on a redeye return flight from Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv to JFK airport tonight... Last time in Israel before the Intifada, security gave her a real hard time even with the U.S. passport and the Star of David belt she wears. I will have to discipline her for using Mother's credit card to pay for the flight. Youthful Romanticism has once again taken hold of her... First it was Sudan, then the Tsunami, now it's the Iraqi, um, 'election'... heck, I really thought we were liberated from the Bullet's Song...

01/30/2005 c.e. And the Morals They All Worship...Will Be Gone...

Super Sunday... High Volume as we approach the expiration of the IEDTF (Iraqi Election Death Toll Futures), with traders lifting offers over the psychological figure 200 casualties... Porcelain Doll LLC has been riding 30 contracts with the average long of 45 for over a month now and just sold 211's. Fixed Rate Option market is finally tapped with 200 strike. That last insurgent blast jolted the open today causing a spiking that was clearly a fade opportunity... In related news, quiet session in the PLO/IDF spread (PLOD), as Sharon and Abbas make temporary amends as all eyes are on Iraq. (There's a reason why the Super Bowl will be in February)...

It's Your Favorite Foreign Movie...

Without even hearing the number, the morning star in GBP/USD might grow out of its romantic starry eyed look and break the consolidation on the upside... UK Home Sales must be stronger... so that's where all the consumer spending went, sans the poor Retail Sales... Gazing at the Manhattan skyline at sunset, at night, anytime for that matter, it's this nostalgic despondence, oh despondence, bitter and sweet, you grace me in the most subtle yet nihilistic ways but don't have the gall to just let me die ... sleep, sleep, sweet prince...

The Things You Think Are Precious... I Can't Understand...

Free Philharmonic on the Great Lawn, a soft Neurontin and Risperidone stroll by the Hudson to watch the setting sun upon the skyline of capitalism... I get these echoes of seasons past... Rake the leaves but the wind keeps blowing your neat little pile... painfully reeling in the years... I want a name when I lose... Sleep eludes me... as does the concept of what entails a day in the life... Claustrophobic acute anxiety in my mind and cns as I write this... Trapped in Alpha Waves... clammy palms... screaming aloud to an empty room... Sleep, sweet prince... sleep...

Giveth and Taketh: It's a Three Ring Picadilly Circus...

Brits post stronger GDP quarterly... muffling last week's poor Retail Sales from the Shitspeck of an Island we call a friend. About a decade ago, lost along the high end of neuroticism, I spent a month there one day.

Eur/Usd Snapshot: And I don't care...

Italian Consumer Confidence falls on deaf ears. I literally see two bears sleeping on a bed and a need to extend to 50 data points per relative strength.

I'm Grouchy Like Marx...

UK Retail Sales MoM: -1.0% vs .6% Sterling takes a divebomb. Cheerio motherfuckers. French consumer spending up big: eur/gbp cross rips...notwithstanding technicals... Jenna Bush looked really tasty at the inauguration of the keebler elf. Will be taking a sleep study at St. Lukes by Columbia on Amsterdam Ave to determine extent of my sleep apnea.

We Had English Muffin Pizzas for Dinner(Cheese stuck to back of incisors)

C. George helped me peg this short term price target on Eur/Usd flat on the 100 Moving Average(daily) ... short the London open at 1.3012 with a tight stop loss above at 1.3040(Fibo 38.2)... It was so dark outside and frio, that I bought two white glaised donuts, and when I got back up to the office, in the light, I realized they had disgusting strawberry filling in the middle, do you get it? It was dark, so I couldn't see the strawberry filling! Ha! It was gross, but I thought of the children and ate them both! The donuts. I ate the donuts, not the children. Neurosis, taking over me...

Curious! Those Candles Are Hot!!!!

Eurozone trade balance 2900 mil vs 3200 mil; we might finally get a solid close below the 38.2 major Fibo... When you start seeing Space Monkey formations in price action at 518 AM Est sitting in an ugly building on a ghostly corner of Wall Street, that's when you know to, I don't even know what to say, this sucks. It just sucks.

81 Billion TICS, Whammy in Empire Manu, I got a 3 minute Haircut from a Russian...

Why do I buy RAMEN noodles? Is it because they are QUALITY Nutrition? NO, it's because they are really CHEAP. Hence, the massive 81 Billion Treasury International Capital Inflows (TICS) for November into the U.S. doesn't give me an erection. For Japan and the rest of the world, buying a U.S. Note or Bond these days is like buying a pack of generic Juicy Fruit. Which reminds me, I saw this Immigrant with his Daughter of about nine years old, and he thought those LISTERINE Tabs(cellophane things) were CANDY and was about to give one to his daughter as a TREAT, so I stopped him and explained it to him. This post was going to be about how to survive the next great depression(hence the bleak picture)... but I'm going to get hot and sour Soup at Ivy's on 72nd and Broadway. And I'm going to enjoy it, and lose track of linear time... Mother is 'fighting a boss' on Daughter's 'Sonic the Hedgehog' gameboy and she is so 'elated'. Thursday, I will be seeing the EMT doctor, possible sleep apnea, need prednisone.

I've Lost. So Get Up On Your Pedestal and Show Me Some Fake Humility...

Self-Induced Cognitive Behavioural and PsychoSomatic Infarction of Amagdyla and 5ht Axons... Pointless Privilege is a bad thing... Pointlessness is even worse. Entitlement is a bad thing... Unwarranted Entitlement is even worse... Going to see an ENT(ears,nose,throat otoranygal----) to utilize my oxygen intake... A controlled level of Oxygen Deprivation makes one think array, and on different frequencies, if left uncontrolled throughout life, you destroy logic. We all know that the peak of 'human' evolution is inevitably communist in its parameters(all aliens look alike and work as a total unit). So what is the peak of 'alien' evolution? I will never know. Myself, I'm going backwards... it's like having a giant elastic wrapped around your waist, tied to a 'primitive' pillar in the ocean, and swimming towards the 'moral' pillar... The closer you get to the 'moral' pillar, the more friction and leverage working against you... and at the point where it's within a fingers graps(this is the most crucial and dangerous point due to physics), this moral pillar, if you fail to grasp that pillar, your going to slingshot backwards, head over heals exponentially, back to cerebral, slamming further back to spinal cord functioning. Aside from 'career' failure, because I'm taking a break from writing about that... I've taken two Claritin, 6 Benadryls, and constant Nose Spray for about 4 weeks now. I'm only able to barely write this awful childish prose today, because I took Ativan. Mother was almost attacked by a cracked out bum yesterday, thankfully, the 'tombstones' in my eyes, made him think twice.

Today's DJIA Action Intepreted In My Version of Moonlight Sonata(Fantasia): Contracting Bollingers and the Crash...

Alas, Even Our Turkeys Were Made in China...

November Trade Balance: -60 Billion... When you start seeing flourescent shit like this, you know you're down deep... No joke. We seriously imported our Thanksgiving dinners. Gotta love that Globalization... Seriously, your DeVry welding degree ain't gonna stand up to a billion little worker bees who are readily sated by a mere bowl of rice and a drop of soy sauce. We're on track for a projectile vomited -600 Billion Trade Deficit... I guess you can say, we got a little 'chink' in our armor... Heed Lockheed's Warning... in other news, [AAPL] released earnings, traded as high as 74 after hours... I'm literally dry vomiting and it hurts...

Nothing Like Losing Your Level II Feed During a Short Squeeze...

[AAPL] gives up all of Friday's gains on good volume. Apple to roll out two more low cost versions of IPOD... Vending Machines will have these in stock next to Goodbars and Skittles. Saturation Nation... Shove it down thy throat... I'm shoving it down your throat... Which reminds me, after the 'liberation' of Iraq, U.S. soldiers were handing out Skittles to Iraqi children... of course, they weren't Skittles, but a generic, and how the color pigment melted on their little hands, as they 'Caught the rainbow' in excitement... I could've cried. I'm shoving it down your throat...

I'm a Sucker for False Promises...

We've decided, well, our Daughter(the Porcelain Doll), decided to embark on a solely PUBLIC school education. Down by the NYSE, they've had lovely banners up for Claremont Preparatory School, but she figured the annuity premiums were simply not worth the projected BioPsychoSocioEconomic Forecast 10 years later... 'Daddy, I want to be Top Ranked in an Average School, instead of being Average at a Top Ranked School! You end up better off! Look at you! You Stink! You're poor and miserable!' she cried out at dinner(Subway sandwiches). I almost choked on my 6" BMT. Truly enough, this has been the case since the mid 90's.

Presence of Mind: RSI Base Settles on Eur/Usd...

A Eur/Usd Chart from Jan 2nd: Hit 3rd Target and is now consolidating as short covers make a quick two week profit... [AAPL] fails to close up on double top, 50% retracement of yesterday's gains with decent volume, heed the past weekend's call. I feel the Flooding of Humanity to counteract the Tsunami is beginning to wane as we are approaching the Third Phase of Tragedy: 1. Shock 2. Countershock 3. Exhaustion... Silver Linings of the day: Abbas may be the real thing, Sudan Peace Accords may be the real thing... Bodies in the Sand... Tropical Cake melting in your hand...

Betsy Didn't See This Coming... Yankee Doodle Dandy Wake Up From Your 61.8 Year Stupor!

Insiduous Cancer... Creeping Up on Us... We need multiple trajectories to maintain dynamic growth! The Heart that beats the Same Pattern Frequency is a Heart Attack waiting to happen... Soon, one Nation's Recession will be the World's Recession... U.N., IMF, World Bank, the Eurozone: the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, these are your Communist Master Units and they don't even know it... oh Yankee Doodle, wake up! Where the fuck are you? And what say thee?

AAPL: IPOD gross sales to be released Wed(I see spin off)...

(AAPL) The break of the previous symmetrical triangle now ushers in a crucial double top in the major ascending triangle. Of course, Porcelain Doll LLC thinks 'Cloud Animals' when it comes to flags, wedges, etc... But I think the masses are keying in on this Ascender Bender... Personally, I see a Frightened Three Legged Space Monkey who is about to escape 11.2 k/s out of Earth's atmosphere, only to correct back to the consolidation area, as the move is overextended. Notwithstanding the healthy volume bidding AAPL---17 to 13 St. Louis, the Seahawks still coming back with a vengeance... gotta go...

Wage Competitors of the World... UNITE!

Can't let this happen... Remember that old trade off between Inflation and Employment? Don't you see what's happening? They've beat it. They think they've done something good... Sure, you can create job upon job, as long as every citizen continues to settle and work for Peanuts... Wage Competition is but Dust in the Wind... Globalization, the knocking down of Walls, is coming Full Circle... I KNOW YOUR ELITIST PLAN CONGLOMERATE COMMUNIST PENCIL DICKS... Cease now, or The Pitbull Will CUT the STRINGS off ALL PUPPETMASTERS... and you will have nothing...

Your Family is Your Only Nation: Dare not Tread on Me any further, G-7 Communist Pig, or I Will Crush Your Fucking Body and Bones...

Kids Say the Darnedest Things...

When He Dies, Can You Be My PenPal?

Dear OPEC and Big Texan Oilman:

My name is Lockheed Hayheehoo Macedon, my father is very sick these days... Once a fearless degree 3 freemason since college, he is but a frail withered bobbling corpse who does not see the light of day. His idea of charity is the strategic dispersion of his hard earned money and profits hoping it goes the right route. He's never purchased a single thing for himself with his assets, he's only scattered them via electronic platforms and the occasional phone call... Lately, he has gone into deep debt, boiling a dozen eggs and refrigerating them to be eaten during Alpha Wave respites. His Crude Oil contracts are highly leveraged and if Crude gets back to $46 within a few weeks, he can appease those types who say, 'thank you' with a crowbar, and I will still have a Daddy... Please find it in your big texan heart to cut supply(just for one month). Oh, no, Daddy's come back and his nose is bleeding... gotta go! -hay ;0
