Long Neck Babble

Hi guys!
What a beautiful December day in PA! You would think it's October. Duke, mother and I went for a long walk.....just gorgeous out! Makes me want to get the GT out and go for a drive! Just checked my funds....this makes me wonder....FPHAX - $2 billion; FSPHX - $9 billion; JAGLX - $4.7 billion. Then you have FBIOX - $15 billion.....say, what? Yeah!!! Duke couldn't believe it either. Go figure! I see they will probably raise rates finally.....I'm soooo tired of this. It's like the '72 Dolphins....every year in the NFL.....enough already, please. Still have a MLP ater a while the numbers don't mean anything. They're just red. You just go numb or dumb....it feels the same. Just gatekeepers, yeah......had to get a beer. Now, how about California's tragedy? It was with no end in sight for the future, I'm afraid. Going to make my last college payment soon, then.....I'm F-R-E-E!!!......really! I can drink the good stuff and maybe have a Cuban cigar. I guess you can get them being that we're friends and all. I wonder why nobody ever made a fund with only college business or real estate in it. Seems like it's bullet proof---money for nothing and your kicks for free!.....or something like that. I saw Pamela Anderson will be the last realPlayboy girl. Well, really, who else would you want, really....? This is not an invitation to make a list, really. I make fun of CNBC mostly because of Dennis, I guess. Bob Pisani and Meg Tirrell are worth the time always!! I wonder what a shotgun would do to a drone....? Poor Amazon! Maybe that's why they're getting into trucking.....just a thought.
God bless
the Pudd
p.s. Duke wants to say, "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!" I told him it was too early, but he said, "Bite me!" Who can argue with that?

    I have heard this refrain, as well...I got out of my MLP funds on the first oil bounce several months ago. I now think it doesn't matter what the MLP companies do...all that matters is what people perceive they do...i.e., "something to do with oil...I'd better SELL"!

    My Saturday was spent a lot like yours...only instead of walking the dog and a beer, it was soaking in my spa with a margarita!;)

    Duke sounds cute. I'm flying to Vegas tomorrow and going to see my granddog, Tora...and visit my son, too!

    @little5bee: Wish I had sold my MLP funds with you. Down an astounding amount, but at this point, not worth selling and locking in a loss- its in my iras and only accounts for 2% of them, so hopefully in 3-5 years will get back to even:) Hopefully they an keep up the dividends.

    @slick I think the tax loss selling will be over soon...in fact, I'm thinking of jumping back in at the end of the month.
