HURRY!!!! While it is still Posted. Ozzy and Randy

As soon as they are uploaded they get taken down but here is a video of the first 3 songs of the immortal Randy Rhoads "Tribute" album!!!

The intro, opening song "I Don't Know" followed by the greatest song ever recorded live, this version of "Crazy Train" is simply too much to pass over:

LOVE IT.

Airforce Lt. Col. Andrew Tanner

This classic film was on this weekend and I always love the OG-riginal "Red Dawn" from 1984. One of the best scenes is Col. Andrew Tanner discussing the invasion:

Love it.

Have a good night.

So What Happened?

Ok so this I had to share.

Kola Superdeep Borehole
I have mentioned this before, but as a reminder via Wiki:
The Kola Superdeep Borehole is the result of a scientific drilling project of the Soviet Union on the Kola Peninsula. The project attempted to drill as deep as possible into the Earth's crust. Drilling began on 24 May 1970 using the Uralmash-4E, and later the Uralmash-15000 series drilling rig. A number of boreholes were drilled by branching from a central hole. The deepest, SG-3, reached 12,262 metres (40,230 ft) (2.21 leagues) in 1989, and is the deepest hole ever drilled, and the deepest artificial point on Earth.
So what happened?

Well I leave you with two images.

One, the place looks like it was destroyed (click for larger view):

Yeah, many old USSR sites look bad. The collapse and all that. I get it.

But then why was the borehole WELDED SHUT and left INTACT all this time? (click for larger view):
I dunno, but I bet it's interesting!

Have a good night.

The Onion: "Financial Sector Thinks It’s About Ready To Ruin World Again"

Oh this is classic:

Via The Onion:
Financial Sector Thinks It’s About Ready To Ruin World Again

Read it all, but some funny (true?) snippets:
-“People are beginning to feel at ease spending money and investing in their futures again,” Blankfein continued. “That’s the perfect time to step in and do what we do best: rip the heart right out of the world’s economy.”

** See this commercial as back up:


-“On second thought, maybe we’ll wipe out the housing market again too, just for the hell of it,” Schnall quickly added. “Might as well, right?”

**The current accepted idea of a housing recovery is going to be so hilarious in a year or so I chuckle everyday.

-“Now that the public’s efforts to curtail questionable Wall Street trading practices have all but ceased, it’s time for us to bring the world to its knees again,” said AIG CEO Robert Benmosche. “There are still plenty of opaque financial derivatives, high-frequency trading operations, and off-balance sheet transactions out there, all with virtually no federal regulation. Trust me, we can definitely work with that. And if anything, we can always just lobby for further concessions and deregulation in Washington—which, by the way, is so, so easy to do—and then we can cause as much damage as we want.”

**No worries bulls, Janet Yellen is set to unleash QE Infinity TIMES Infinity come January but wowza, it's quite a way until then! Another commercial to help with the visual:


-"And while we’re at it, we’ll make sure we once again come away from this whole thing scot-free and far wealthier.”

**It's true. What really drove me away from things market and trading was that every trader/investor/money manager is responsible for the way the market works. To turn a blind eye in the awe of an uptrend is dishonest and shows where your real drive is from.

Have a good night.

Wall Street Babies Get Pampers Changed by Bernanke's Au Pair Hilsenrath

In case you were confused about things for the STUNNING 4% or so drop in the indices and rate sensitive items getting clobbered this handy diagram should clear things up.

1.) OMFG!!!! The Fed may taper/slow/stop extra bond buying:

2.) WE ARE SAVED!!!!:

As you were.


Note: The recent drop extends my time estimate until we get there, but I believe when the S&P 500 gets to 1800 there will be a significant opportunity.

Have a good night.

The Bahamas for the next 8 days, see ya!

ATTENTION: Wall Street is Hiring Bagholders. Step Up!

How do you know you are Bearish and showing cognitive bias? How many Zero Hedge articles you reference in a work. Bullish? Anything by Joe Weisenthal on Business Insider.

Anyways, If I hear people "missed out" on the 145% rally from the lows I will scream. Only Wall Street types and morons think some dude with a job reacts in minutes or hours to market gyrations.

My chart (click for larger view):
We know, PE expansion due to low rates, etc.

The taunting, the smug dismissive attitude has to stop. No wonder normal folks do not do anything but steady invest and not watch. Main Street has seen enough of the baloney. Keep selling this uptrend (its not a 'rally' morons going on 4 years; if of course you missed the murder holes then bought the bottom which is easy) and no one is buying. Wall Street needs a bagholder that is not them (think 2000-2001; did YOU get bailed out? No? Too bad...) so buy in if you want.

Good luck.
