...and what exactly does this have to do
with trading after all the lectures and whining we've heard from
you?
TAKE IT PRIVATE!

Read you Bible. It is perfectly acceptable
in the eyes of God to hunt and fish for food.
There is no such thing as reincarnation and we
will not come back "in your next life" as animals or anything
else.
We will each be judged at judgement day and be
held accountable for how we lived this life.
The "next life" will be for eternity in
either heaven or hell. God gave us the option and the choice is ours on
an individual basis.
Me and my family choose to believe in the word of
God and live our lives accordingly, everyone else has to make their own
choice.
Tom

> One can understand why if you have priced meat at

so cheap in my life. Boneless skinless chicken breasts at
$1.70/lb, top sirloin $1.90/lb, salmon fillets $3.00/lb. I don't
even bother to stock up anymore because the prices keep falling.
Bad karma to kill animals. You might wind up a brightly colored
deer in your next life.--- In realtraders@xxxx, "Tom Bowen"

to disagree. I could have a mechanical trading system. After
30 years in the computer industry and several million lines of code I am
a fairly competent programmer in C, C++, PC Assembler, Visual Basic,
etc, etc, etc. I am retired now so my days, nights and
weekends all kind of run together. If I were going to trade with a
mechanical system I would just open a managed Futures account and let it
go at that. I love the trading business for what it is and I love
to trade. The thrill of winning and the agony of defeat and all
that stuff. I enjoy challenging the market place, doing the
analysis, deciding which markets to trade, calculating entry and exit
points, testing new trading ideas/concepts and all the other work that
goes along with being in control of ones destiny. I do not and
will not insult my intelligence by watching television so trading is my
profession, hobby and entertainment. When most people are sitting
down in front of the stupid tube after dinner I go to my computer room
and trade. Different strokes for different folks. After
spending all day with me I think my wife is glad to get rid of me for a
while in the evening :-).> > It appears that we do agree on

1967 the good Lord saw fit to touch my life and turn me around. I
maintain a very strong and ever growing relationship with God the father

day we are all going to be held accountable for the way we lived our
lives and that is all that is going to matter.> > God
