Too bad you're so far away. Although we took a vote -- if you'd arrive with The Salt Lick brisket and some ribs you may be considered! LOL
And I'm very happy about that!

The new place down the street from me that is so good does vacuum packed briskets. I could send you one.

I think Franklins is doing chilled vacuum packed briskets too now.

I pre-ordered some brisket and ribs for my birthday, it was funny just walking up past the giant line and getting my order, in and out in 10 minutes

Truer words were never spoken!! In a great market == doesn't matter -- but when shizzle hits the fan == and it ALWAYS does..... this counts. I've preached it here continuously.




If there is one thing that is universal in the investment world, it is that quality trumps all in the long-run.

There's so little to ADD to the last 500 pages ---- but I would say that these last couple days should show folks what happens when the market pops -- miss that VERY few big pop days that happen per year - and it will affect your overall returns. Being IN the market rather than on the sidelines -- you get the rewards..... watching from the sidelines "waiting" (on whatever the hell someone is waiting for) will have a negative affect on the overall performance.

I've said this many times in past posts. Hopefully - as this thread gets longer in the tooth - people begin to see the real life results.

Just for fun. Does anyone else know of companies that are private that they wish were public so they could invest in them? My two are Hyvee and Menard's. I always spend at least $100 at Menards even though I went in to buy $20 worth of lumber.

Chick fil A comes to mind. I've been getting hammered in the market. Dividends still coming in but stock prices have been going south. Wish i had more to continue to throw in. Investing is the best drug ive found yet. Wish i would have bought some RACE its been on a run.

Now you begin to see how dividends help your mind and help you stay in the game even when everything sucks (like owning a paid for rental house).

"Time will help" --- unless you've picked some really bad names --- CPST comes to mind.

I own 500 shares of RACE..... "just because". So far it's been good/okay.

YOU need to eat at The Red Ash before Adrienne moves to her new joint.... get the 60 ounce Ribeye -- or maybe the Osso bucco... and a Caesar Salad.... and then the ice cream with espresso to dump over it.

I didn't have time to see anyone on this trip -- it was a surprise trip - surprised I made it!! LOL

Now that the '40 Ford is in Georgetown (Custom Hot Rods of Andice) -- And Adrienne is there - I'll fly down a little more often. We'll be there for Gwen's birthday for about 3 days in a couple weeks. I'd love to see if we have the time to all get together - Eric - you - Gerno - SW.....
