Re: What is up with EFTPS?
It wasn’t down for me, at least, but I did have to kind of break into it despite having the password. Sometime in the past year they added that. Found it when doing estimated payments. It's really strange to need to log in twice. It wasn't hugely frustrating for me because I already had an id.me ac...

Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
I think (note I said ‘think’ rather than the popular ‘feel’ often used by the woke) Sorry. But this use of "feel" rather than "think" predates woke by decades and decades. I've been railing against it similarly for decades, saying "I don't want to know how you feel, I want to know what you think." ...

Re: Small Cap Value vs US Total Stock Market

Is this saying that one would expect that illiquid investments would be priced lower than liquid investments, because having liquidity ...

Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us
Dualstow, we expect more of you. You accused Vinny of still using his old computer while a new one he spent good money on sits "next to" the old one. Turns out that's not even close to true! It's probably a good 2 feet farther away than that. Please do some more fact checking before posting next time.

Re: Trump Supporters Say The Darndest Things!!!
It sounds like they were more reluctant, lesser-of-two-evils Trump supporters. We do have a "lesser of two evils" system. This response would be more appropriate when directed to the people who seem to be mistaking Trump for Jesus himself. But more broadly, maybe this is something the Jehovah's Wit...

Re: New interview with Craig Rowland
Yet another example of how the Value Stock Geek consistently sends an email with an email date about 2 weeks prior to it actually being sent.

Re: Vinny VS email backdaters
A lot of email is sorted by newest first, Vin. If what you say is true then those older date emailers are doing the exact wrong thing. Do email programs give you the choice of either newest or oldest first? I just checked with my ancient Eudora email which I use for person. It always has oldest on ...

Re: Vinny VS email backdaters
When I asked someone his opinion of why they did this ... he hypothesized they did it so that their emails would be the top ones (first ones) in your In Box. Huh. At least for me it means there's approximately zero chance I would ever know it had existed. Explain yourself further? Currently my inbo...

Re: New interview with Craig Rowland
… However, is it not in this forum that Craig stated that he was no longer a Permanent Portfolio participant? I wonder if you’re thinking of PointedStick, a well-respected, intelligent and long-time member. He went all stocks. I don’t recall Craigr ever changing course. No. Definitely thinking of C...

Again, what causes you to draw that conclusion? It is not apparent to me.

I've heard of Boxing Day, but only as a British/Canadian thing. We don't do it here. It's also the second day of Christmas, and the feast day of St Stephen. As the first Christian martyr, with no idea from Scripture when he was killed, he was assigned December 26, the day after Christmas Day, by the...
