  • IN 2 days while I was away on business trip, Obama's one speech decreased my net worth by 10%. Does he want a recovery or not? #

  • Oh wow, this hotel room is luxurious. #
  • Away in Albany USA. #
  • This is classic. Problems arise that needs my attention the day before my business trip. #
  • That otta tell Obama that "Yes we like change, but stop punishing people who want to make money" #
  • Obama lost MA senate seat and thus the super majority in congress. Stocks are going to rally good. #

  • Doesn't look like I will be able to use Nexus One with Wind Mobil in Quebec in the forseeable future. Hi-tech junkyard. #

  • Jamie: TARP got extended to insurances and car companies. I don't understand why we have to pay for that. We already PAID for that. #
  • JPM your move. #
  • Sigh… Bankers with big bonuses are tax payers too. In fact, the rich represent most of the tax collected. They pay your welfare. #
  • Obama's $90B bank tax is actually a shadow tax on its population. It is just extracted through bank fees instead of IRS. Politics… #

  • In 2008, someone borrowed 2 Trillion from the US fed. What if that someone is China? #
  • Conference call with Directors and CTO of a small company. Egos expected. #

  • Probably will be absent from the net for a while to do taxes and make baby money. #

  • Down about 10k+ this week. Back to where I was a month ago. Funny, a wide swing like this no longer fazes me. Happened too many times. #
  • @uncoveredrivers Not sure yet. August maybe? That’s usually when there are a lot of tradeshows. #
  • YES!!! TF2 sniper update has bow and arrows!!! I’ve been training in Mount & blade for ages!!! #
  • The desiderata reminds me of God’s apology in Hitch hiker’s guide to the galaxy. “I am sorry for the inconvenience”. I feel at peace. #
  • Looks like the company intend for me to fly around and do presentations. Hoping for Germany. #
  • Getting ready for a conference call. Glad I have my suit to make me feel secure. #
  • Lost about 6k in the past 2 days. I am getting rusty… #
  • Bought a $5 game from steam hoping for a cheap thrill. Buggy as hell. I feel for those who bought it at $40. #
  • It takes, on average, 16 working hours to complete an entry on Morocco. #
  • Always hated option expiration week. Always have and always will be. #
  • @somerled They should let me handle the fund. I will do it for only $1 million instead of 20 million and I can beat the market. #
  • Just got a few more responsibilities shoved up my behind at work. When will this depression end??? #
  • Tomorrow Intel get their arze kicked so hard that they kisz ze moon. #
  • So much going on at the same time. Hard to concentrate on the important stuff… What IS important? #
  • 11PM already. Not enough time. #
  • FOCUS Peter Focus!!! #
  • Shaking + cold sweat from lack of food. Attempting to recouperate #
  • Wondering whether or not these hot woman who follow me on Twitter are some geek’s experimental bot. Can’t tell at the moment yet. #
  • Sorry folks. No Morocco this week. Social duties called. #

  • Hadar, wherever u r. I stood before the crossroad, made my choice and made it. #
  • Activision Blizzard, finally bouncing like I’ve been willing it to. You can’t beat my 30 days of nagging-prayer. #
  • Design fail for a 10k computer part. Colling fan’s lifetime only lasts for a year. Cost of fan = $10 #
  • You can’t have gas price at 2007 levels with an economy at 1997 levels. Enough said. #

  • Best thing about having a discussion with a geek is that you never have to worry about whether or not they are lying. #
  • Fixed all the broken image links with a .htaccess redirect. Talk about slacking off. #
  • End of earnings season for me. Means I don’t have to listen in to earnings conference calls for 3 months. #
  • The stress test is pretty strict. Using TCE though is a joke. #
  • Funny, I somehow retained the personality from when I had a long spot of adrenaline rush, but none of the emotions. #
  • @mtk I have no idea. Either he is or his hired help. #
  • @jack_welch I also agree with that. The evidence is showing that the stress tests only serves to screw things up and create uncertainty. #
  • @uncoveredrivers I always thought musicians are excluded from that due to the band nature. I guess there are sides that I don’t know. #
  • @fredngo Fred, you alive? #
  • @mtk glad you resurfaced from whatever slumber you were in. #
  • @mtk The swindlers were sentenced to eternal slavery to produce the promised suit. #
  • Make sure you are around someone who can call 911 today before you check your stocks. In case you get a heart attack. #

  • Met up with Chris, had an interesting discussion. Also got my community garden permit. All in a days work. #

  • Rally with very low volume. FAKE. #
  • @melle you are famous now. Accept it and take it up the chin. #
  • Is radeon HD4770 the reason why AMD jumped up 20% in the last 5 biz days? #
  • @milo317 Heh. They are about 3 years too late. Which means that you are an expert now. in reply to milo317 #

  • Someone made 25million share BAC purchase after hours. Very fishy. Oh well. We will hear about it MOnday. #
  • Thanks to the stress test. Nothing will happen for a while. It’s stressing the heck out of investors. #
  • Consumer sentiment up. ISM up. Waiting for my factory source to see if orders are stable and increasing. The last hurdle. #
  • W00T. Got my community garden. Time for my evil biological experiments. #
  • The Japanese visited us 3 years ago with their satellite connected laptops and complained about the lack of free wireless. We r behind #

  • Leigh. This is stupid of me. But can you send me the information for Montreal’s Hacklab again? I am a very bad man. #
  • These ppl r awesome. I left the place inspired. Will be back next time. #
  • Heading to startup drinks. Don’t know anyone. I’ll just wing it. #
  • I retract my statement. Mrs. Davis is borderlining on delusional. #
  • I am impressed at how knowledgeable Ms Davis is on the financial system for someone her age. It’s like her brain stayed young. #
  • “There is a Finger and he wants to hold hands”…” We have no use for him and he’s just a phony poor *bad name*” #
  • OMG Ms Davis just kicked everyone’s ass at the BAC shareholder meeting. #
  • @CosmicVoyager noticed that he’s always in some type of action. Good signs. #
  • Woke up at 6 again. It means that my body is in the go getter mood. #
  • Fred, going to startup drink tonight? #

  • The Radeon HD 4770 is a can of whoopass #
  • @printyourtweets thanks. But I am all good. I am saving these in my wordpress. #

  • @philly099 don’t need to learn anything. Just link it to your phone and that’s it. #
  • @philly099 Hey Philly #
