    build a meth lab.

    great ROI

    the only tips I have are for companies I’m involved with and my ass will go to jail for giving them out.

    I think you’re honestly better off shorting things the way the market has been pooping along. I’ve made bundles doing this. I only wish I could make my 401K do it! lol

    they also kill you even if they dont blow up

    i remember reading the life expectancy for folks that work more than 6 months in one is approximately 3 years

    that’s ubercrazy

    tim, I used to be a stock broker. Seriously! This market is very scary right now. Put it in a higher yielding ( I know…it’s all relative in this day and age)savings account and invest it gradually. Don’t put it all in at once. And dep is right…no meth labs.

    CORRECTION….

    The Mets signed IF Olmedo Saenz to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training.

    In 110 at-bats with the Dodgers last season, Saenz batted .191 with four homers and 18 RBI.

    yea I like Saenz. 2007 was a real bad year for him but he still had some pinch hits.

    he’s hit lefties allright in prior years. not a bad guy to take a flyer on.

    he supposed to be a really good guy too.

    uh oh, old and good in the clubhouse, Willie may start him!!! LOL

    saenz potentially can figure as a tremendous bench bat for us

    the guy is a wonderful, professional hitter (if not runner)

    this is a great pick-up and frankly i’m surprised he was available like this

    i agree with this. i remember him killing us as a dodger. i hope he can still rake a little. this is the kind of signing that omar excels at: low cost (for a big market team), low risk and the potential for high reward.

    also, LATINO!

    I’m glad I like this Seanz signing. Who knows if he can contribute, but I imagine that he can still bounceback and hit lefties like he did in 2006 and 2005.
