  1. I think a lot of large corporations have financing operations - all the automakers did, expanded into other things like mortgages and went to shit; pretty sure that heavy equipment companies like CAT, Deere, Komanstu, etc; Boeing & Airbus will finance, not sure why this is any surprise. And to point out that tech companies are investing down the supply chain, is very Japanese of them. But when the shit hits the fan, one bad player (over leveraged, too concentrated customer base, susceptible to even newer technologies will bring a number of inter-related enterprises along with them.
  2. Why does it look like Biden showed up at a baseball game in a football uni? lookings at the stadium and foul poles, other players are blurred but definitely not in football gear - AI is fucking weird Also, no Ray Ban's not sure this is actually supposed to be POTUS
  3. traders or traitors?
  4. maybe there should be a separate death pool for 2025 - pick 7 politico types - I'd start with Bannon & Rudy
  5. original Hawkeye Pierce (paved the way for the TV show)
  6. In Michigan it was a nativity scene that led to a snaketivity scene and then that was replaced by a goat. I am "proud" to say that the sponsor of the nativity scene was my State Senator, and prior to that he was the sheriff in the county in which I reside. He loved being bible thumping, but IMO he also loved the publicity of getting to defend having a religious symbol on public state owned property which led to the other non-Christian icons being allowed. spoilered to keep this from long-cat - but here are pictures/drawings of said items)
  7. how very aggy of the Pistons
  8. They should have a Dr as the moderator, and ask them questions from a cognitive test & see if either of them figure out the secret. If the both fail, are we stuck with picking between Kamala, RFK Jr, and whoever the Trump Cultists elevate to the VP for the ticket? What a country we live in; 330 million people (160 million registered voters) and this is what we have to choose between to lead the country ...... we are fucked
  9. Congrats to Big Al - hometown kid, great to see him win one, hope to see him in a parade if he comes back sometime this summer. 2nd best player to come out of the Greater Lansing area; which isn't too bad.
  10. Fisker files for bankruptcy, EV production is a crowded field & hard to find a profitable niche. Lots of billions have been spent chasing Tesla https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/18/ev-startup-fisker-files-for-bankruptcy-aims-to-sell-assets.html
  11. And now back to your regular programming TPC River Highlands hosting the Travelers Championship It is a signature event, so big names are playing Television:  Thursday-Friday: 3-6 p.m. ET (Golf Channel). Saturday-Sunday: 1-3 p.m. (Golf Channel), 3-6 p.m. (CBS)
  12. Sergio missed out on getting an exemption into 2025 US Open by a stroke Also - the Olympic Men's qualifiers are set (top 15 in OWGR, limited to 4 per country - I think the only big move this week was Collin passing Cantay for the last Team USA spot https://www.cbssports.com/golf/news/golf-in-the-2024-paris-olympics-teams-set-with-scottie-scheffler-xander-schauffele-leading-united-states/
  13. Surly outing to a Knigga game
  14. I wonder how long the list is, of the people DJT will pardon if he wins the election. Certainly to include Bannon, Rudi, Jan 6th "warriors", ....
  15. I am hoping that if I pick a vpn connection in the UK, that this year I can stream the BBC coverage online.
  16. so I looked at the open interest in the June 21expiry GME options - and of course there is one strike that really sticks out now I want to know who has the counterpoint puts, because it is hard to believe someone was writing options on 12 million shares no way those 39,000 puts are retail traders
  17. there is a guy from Michigan, making an effort to be the unknown player to jump into Open contention......but I'm not saying his name, because the jinx factor will certainly derail his round (just like Pavon going bogey right after I posted)
  18. Saleeth is right there with Lefty, as is JT (what has happened to him)
  19. Matt Pavon seems to be having a day - eagle both par 5's and sitting atop the board an -5 (dont jinx it now)
  20. I am not sure what his goal is - I mean he has already made enough to fuck around - but I'm not sure why he isn't selling some of those options when it was up in the $40's, $50's or $60's. Buy and hold is nice, but GME will struggle to not be the next Blockbuster, Radio Shack, etc. It was a fun business for a number of years but it isn't really a growth opportunity or next level technology. Good luck to Roaring Kitty, but don't make it about you or the shorts you think you can punish; all those shares can go back to low single digit $ trading. And your pack of apes will beat their chest and "celebrate" with you if you ride it back down. He does have a big cash balance, but don't push all your chips into the pot of a game that can be changed by outsiders.
  21. Not even close - because if he sells his core holdings it will trigger capital gains taxes on the shares he has acquired. He is sitting on a winning lottery ticket, but the tax man cometh.
  22. so you are saying we went to the moon on white Ford Bronco that was driven there slowly
  23. took me a minute, then I realized West wasn't 116 years old. and because this is Surly, I will include a photo of his daughter in law
