Predictions, Predictions….

Less than two weeks after Goldman stated that oil prices have likely bottomed out, the bank has predicted that oil prices may plunge lower.

Latest: Goldman says oil Prices To Fall Below $40 If Shale Doesn’t Slow.

Morgan Stanley was the lead underwriter on Snap. It changed its mind and tanked the stock.

Did they not do proper due diligence before they underwrote it? Were they obsessed with the idea that Snap is the new Facebook. It’s not.

Don’t touch Snap.

And don’t believe one word of Wall Street’s predictions! Not one word.

The Italian Lover

A virile Italian gentlemen named Guido was relaxing at his favorite Rome bar when he managed to attract a spectacular young blonde woman.

Things progressed to the point where he led her back to his apartment and, after some small talk, they retired to his bedroom where he rattled her senseless.

After a pleasant interlude, he asked with a smile, “So, you finish?”

She paused, frowned, and replied. “No.”

Surprised, Guido reached for her and the rattling resumed. This time she thrashed about wildly and there were screams of passion. The sex finally ended and, again,

Guido smiled and asked, “You finish?”

Again, after a short pause, she returned his smile, cuddled closer to him and softly said, “No.”

Stunned, but damned if he was going to leave this woman unsatisfied, Guido reached for the woman yet again. Using the last of his strength, he barely managed it, but they ended together screaming, bucking, clawing and ripping the bed sheets.

Exhausted, Guido fell onto his back gasping. Barely able to turn his head, he looked into her eyes, smiled proudly and asked again, “You finish?”

Barely able to speak, the beautiful blonde whispered in his ear . . . . . “No, I Norwegian”

Harry Newton, who’s amused. Janet Yellen is wearing green eye shadow on TV this morning. She’s an ultra-talented woman. I love her.  But green eye shadow? Heck, why not?
