This is hard to believe

[Tyme2fish]

Its hard to believe that this is part of the U.S.A.
Imagine being a cop in San Francisco.

Chief Heather Fong (left), the first SFPD female chief of police;
Theresa Sparks (center, former male), president of the San Francisco
Police Commission, CEO of a multimillion-dollar sex toy retailer, and
a
transgender woman.

Sgt. Stephan Thorne (right, former female), the first transgender SFPD
police officer.

Oh Lord help us.

I figure I have about a 50 50 chance that these cheap post pads will survive. They're simple, kinda fun and if it get's locked I am OK. If it finds it's way to Zappo land then I am out a couple of seconds typing tyme, seems like a reasonable gamble . . .

San Francisco is San Francisco - as in, it is what it is. The place is, and has been for a very long time, a very liberal city. It also happens to have a wonderful quality of life, as long as you can afford to live there. I did live in a suburb of SF in the early/middle 70s and loved it - great weather, beautiful scenery, nice people, lots to do, etc.

I really don't care what goes on there in terms of their attitudes about social issues. I don't live there any more so I am not affected. Besides, at the moment, I feel like I have much more important things to stress over - like the status of my investments.

On the brighter side of things, I am about to go fill my boat up ... one of my local gas stations just went down to $1.93/gallon! If I had an extra $1,000 sitting around, and enough gas cans, I would go stock up!

What's a post pad, what is its function, and where does it go on a boat?

You're investments have a status ???
I got my monthly statement this week. It's the lowest it has ever been - account opened in 1986.

Re: This is hard to believe

If you've properly diversified your investments, you shouldn't have to worry about them, unless you're very close to or are in retirement, in which case... you're screwed! Otherwise, ride it out... or better yet, invest more, if you can. When the market dives, that's the perfect time to invest to get good deals on undervalued stocks.

I refuse to lower myself to the point of indulging in such superficial vocifery just to tally a higher post count. And I cannot believe that LT hasn't chimed in here yet either!
