    I’ve decided to create a weekly piggington report for all those that have missed out on all the action that’s been going on Piggington this week. Check back next weds for next week’s weekly report. Here’s the latest headlines on Piggington for the week of Feb 15.

    1. Ron Paul is at it again!

    Ron Paul is probably first place in the primaries. Well, he’s not. Ok, maybe so… But he definitely would be if it wasn’t for Absolute Voter Frauds in Maine.

    2. Who the heck is Jeremy Lin?

    Well, you probably already heard. The Harvard grad Knicks benchwarmer that came out of nowhere. Despite how well he handles a ball, definitely a contentious discussion here on Piggington…

    We’re trying to figure out if “Chinese” includes people from PRC and Taiwan or if Chinese really means only people from PRC. Also, we’re trying to figure out if Taiwan is really part of China or not.

    3. Asians, education, and how they influence the local real estate economy.

    This week, our guest commentators have chimed in on the correlation of where asians tend to live and how well the schools score in API tests…or not…

    4. Will it sell?
    Every week, we’ll present a new house project and ask the same question. “Will it sell?”

    Today’s featured property: 600k SFH in Mira Mesa. Overpriced? Or priced just right?

    Some think these homes will sell well being in Qualcommland.. Other’s think Qualcommland is about to go bust. But still others think this will end up boosting API scores for Mira Mesa schools..or not..or maybe….

    5. Ouch that might hurt

    This week, our fearless explorer, briansd, is going to demonstrate the safety and economic effectiveness of getting dental implants in Mexico. We wish you well briansd, please do post your youtube video when/if you get back

    6. Stock gambling corner

    FLU has demonstrated after getting his ass handed to him with a Groupon purchase, that similarly Zygna is no better. Don’t quit your day job FLU. You just suck.

    7. Hey baby, how about some nice adult swing time

    No, don’t worry totally safe for work.. Despite the apparently misleading title (which was probably there to draw more eyeballs), ww has ventured into taking traditional clubs from India and swinging them in his backyard. Don’t let go of the stroke, walter…

    8. It’s the economy, stupid….
    Well, some of us feel the economy is getting better. Others don’t think it is….We’ll sort this out by March….2014…

    9. Health Tip Corner: Don’t be an F
    Our guest commentators chime in on why you shouldn’t be…uh…well you know obese…

    10. Who’s Spying on You?

    Don’t look now, but the government is spying on you… Yes, that’s right, because the government used all your taxpayer dollars to fund spy projects built by overpaid, over-pensioned government workers…Ok, maybe not. Maybe it was funded by Wall Street and Croynism… But they are out there….So…better vote for Ron Paul.

    11. Investment Corner

    a. Your weekly lucky CA lotto number
    1 2 3 4 5 + 6

    b. Your weekly (un)lucky stock picks

    Go long on Nvidia (nvda)
    Go short on Phillip Morris (PM)
    Go short on Qualcomm
    Go long on Research in Motion (RIMM)
    Go all in long on BPAX
    Go long long on Caesars (CZR)

    And if you held long positions in Groupon (GRPN) or Zygna (ZNGA), I’m sorry, but what the fvck were you thinking!

    (Please this is the contrarian portfolio. You should do the opposite)

    c. Hot deal of the week

    Don’t forget to buy your $100 Ronald McDonald Raffle ticket for a chance to get that $2.2million McMansion in Encinitas which you will need after shoving McBicBac down your tummy…
    It’s probably the closest you’ve ever get to getting a 50%+ off home in San Diego.

    I think this is a great idea. There are a couple of these that I haven’t ever opened because I either didn’t know what they were about, or I was afraid I did know what they were about.

    But wtf is “Week of Feb. 15th”. Today is the 15th. It’s Wednesday. Weeks don’t run from Wednesday to Tuesday. You can have a week beginning on Sunday. That’s how my office does it. You could have a week beginning on Mondays. But Wednesday? Man you’re screwing up the whole calendar. Call it something else. Call it “News from last week”. or “Whats been going on lately”.

    To summarize:

    Jeremy Lin might be the only Ivy League educated Asian Ron Paul supporting Indian club swinging 4S ranch resident. He should never have been suckered into those high Mello Roos fees.

    flu’s right, my swingin indian club’s teaser subject line was intentional, just to gain attention. Pathetic? or just good journalism. I go with pathetic.

    flu,

    You should do this on your own site, so you can generate your own ad revenue (sorry Rich).

    Soon enough, you’ll have your own high-profile IPO.

    My only complaint about this thread is that it is listed as Off-topic.

    Another good item might be a Greatest Hits collection. Maybe that could be given out free w a subscription to the weekly update.
