Mike, thanks for links. I feel for your friend Potato, its unusal a stock collapses and I did not own it 🙂
‘Idiot’ is a bit strong word 🙂 But, yes, it is ‘idiotic’ to save money on taxes and lose more elsewhere. And I’ve been idiotic at times too.
Thanks for the mention!
It always feels strange to watch the Stanley Cup finals with the air conditioning on. Thanks for the mention.
Thanks for the mention and the condolences, Mike.
Wish I were free to complain even more about the thesis woes, but unfortunately my advisor has pierced my veil of quasi-anonymity, so feelings/work relationships would get hurt if I did 🙁
But: I submitted it, I’m going on a well-deserved vacation, and then I’ll be looking on the hunt for a job with someone else when I get back!
I’m a little late in getting to some posts, this one included!
Thanks for the mention Mike!
Cheers,
Mark
