Participantthat sucks flu. I’m slightly above break-even with my “recession-proof” stocks in Johnson and Johnson and Proctor/Gamble. With my short on UPS which I hypothesized (I think on one of Alex_Angel’s previous threads) would be hard hit by fuel costs, I’m up 4%. Had it for about a month.
With articles like this one in today’s WSJ I wish I shorted FedEx as well as UPS but I like FedEx so didn’t short it (stupid emotions).

ParticipantCongrats on the grad school, I think you’ll find that UCSD ain’t easy. I went there me self.
I just spoke to my friend who lives in grad student housing. They pay $768/mo for a 2br/1ba in the Mesa apartments. This covers ALL UTILITIES as well. She said, though, that newer students are being asked to pay more to “bring the rents up to market value”.

ParticipantThanks! Yes, she rides with me. If I take off without her she’ll chase me until I let her on. In the car she’s always hanging her head out the window so I guess she has no problem on the bike and seems to prefer it. She rides half on my lap, half on the gas tank (which is all scratched up by her claws). She never tried to jump off but I don’t allow much slack on the harness either.

ParticipantThanks patiently, that’s very insightful. I’ll ask when I see my friend again if it was the loan servicer, probably was.
xbox, it’s my thread, you can hijack it all you like! Besides I like to chat about whatever comes out, which isn’t necessarily always in line with the OP. You have a great attitude, even though your running career was shortened you see the glass half-full in that you still have a knee to gripe about. Those Ducatis are fun but I think you did the smart thing to give it up for your family. You never know when you’re going to get blindsided. My bike doesn’t have that kind of acceleration being a 453 lb cruiser so I take it easy but still I’ve had my share of close calls both with other vehicles and with gravel patches.
