To all my new friends I wish you good cheer, good health and many belly hurting laughs.
I hope my posts of my humorous investment ways have given you one or two. It is true that I drink but really it 's just a couple and not even every day. Many times I do pour one down while I read your messages ,posts or detail stories. I keep that full glass away from the key board unlike the Viking who did manage to drown one !!!
Seriously friends I have learned alot , you all have helped the Duff's make a couple of real type bucks. We are a bit closers to our top goal, moving near Denver it is our favorite getaway place.
Young Duff's out there busy fixing networks at hospitals that help keep people alive. It is above me what that kid real does those tech guys and VW talk funny at times and are hard to understand, they get old DuffBeer's head to spinning round and round.
I tip my hat along with a beer a big hip hip to Ken Kam for keeping me around. I was up with the big boys # 47 for a day then came that big sub prime crash . That big noise you heard was Duff falling down as Eileen just watch me drop and Russ gave me a nice wave goodby. I landed by somebody that goes by LA. I knew a guy named DuffBeer would not be welcome here.
I made some adjustments added some "Apples", "Expres Scripts" needed some drugs, "Shanda " for playing those games, purchased moe RIMM just before the fall, then added a"BIDU" check out their site makes you think you have been drinking to long, I always read Shao & Shah they guys in the know and got into solar JASO.
I went daring but something to see is that Dishwasher he solidly at # 3 !!!!!!!!
Merry Christmas my friends , may peace be with you all and also our troops .
Cheers, DuffBeer

This is a Quickie ( an Evening Nooner, so to Speak) - I'll Rant Long Later.
OK - about the infamous KBD incindent -
I DID violate my own "NO Liquids" Rule. This is True - but it was a Kingsbury Blogg-back & he's mostly WET all the Time -fishing Fool and such. I had to get " In The Mood", didn't I ?
Violating Taboos & rules is 'WHAT I DO' !
Even if they are my OWN rules. What else are rules for ? " The Masters Make THE RULES for the Wise Men & The FOOLS ". I got NO Scruples. I at least don't take myself SERIOUSLY. That would Be BAD !!!!
The "Head Spinning " it's your BAR Stool - It'll be Better Beer-times when the Bearings FREEZE UP in the Chicago Deep-Freeze. Shirt-Sleeve Weather in SE VA today. I saw 4 AF #1's ( some 'Decoys' ) going Low & slow into Langley AFB. Some Body (-guarded ) guy was probably GOLFING at the LAFB Golf Course Today ( In shirt sleeves ).
I was #42 @ one time. I was in Cash - well - it's the Subject of " My Very First Blog" . Check it out - it's very Pedantic & sarcastic - Surely, you MUST get a LOT of that, Duffer. & I won't call you Shirley AnyMore, either.
Rimm-shot - Soldier - Smoke 'em if you gottem.
Denver - misnomer - Ver - green ( as in VerDant ) - Den - from the Valley. Green Valley for a Mile High? Team colors - Green & gold - there's gold in them thar hills ( but I thought it was SILVER Mines )
I'm starting to get Myself as ConFuzed as DuffBeer. Better Kwit.

DuffBeer,
DON"T QUIT NOW !!! I WON"T LET YOU....
Mainly because I need A FOIL - and Who's BETTER THAN YOU ???
2nd Lee and FAR less importantly is this Little Piece of Handy Dandy Info Courtesy of ( God in Heaven 'HELP me' & 4Give me 2 & give me tthe strength) - there are only 20 People ahead of you & the TOP 5 who are STILL Qualified for Consideration. MORON.
WAKE UP & Smell the COFFEE-flavored beer. Look at the DEC 13,2007 Performance Pages. Every Name with an asterisk by it is DISQUALIFIED ( including 1 of the TOP 5 )& @ 114 you have ONLY 20 above you & one is a GURL - Eilene ( She can't REALLY count or I'm NOT an MCP ( Male Chauvinist PIG !!!!!! ).
( parenthetically speaking here - Sorry Eilene - I OWE you One - but Desperate Times lead to Acts O'Desperad-o. You want to WIZE the DUFFERBEER up yourself. Go ahead, SweetHeart, Knock yourself OUT It's a Tough & Dirty JOB, But somebody's gotta do it. Might as well be me - this TIME. )

Duffer,
@ 180 I am only a 'no non-qualifieds' 12 BeHind your Buttocks. I can DO 12 standing on my head & Whistling Dixie. As 4 U - you've got One Hell-Hound on your Skank-RANKING Trail. All I have to do is Sell my GrandMother in to Sex Slavery and I'm THERE, Dude.
Maybe I'll just get 2 friends O'Mine - Sparky the Electrician ( the man does Wonders with a Cattle Prod ) & Big Mike the Mechanic ( he specializes in Wood-Working tools called NutDrivers and he's very efficient ) and we'll go down to Market-O-Cracy HQ & convince them of the finer Points of the argument as to why I should be #1. I'm a Shoe-In. Not So?
No QUIT in ME,either,

Duffer SLOPPY Drunker,
About AF #1 - I frequently enter the Portals of Langley AFB ( Laf-B = Laugh Bee - get it ? )
due to certain Familial Militarial Associations & InFill-Trations. Here's MY Sorry Story an' I'me STICKIN'n to it. [ a TRUE Story ]
I was @ the LAFB AAFES Snack Bar & got in Lime
2 git a Robin Hood SubWAy Sannich. I got in behind a guy in a Black Costume UniForm - looked like a Rent-a-Kop. I see Navy, Gyrines, NATO, Germuns,Greeaks, alla kinda Un-informeds but dis Was Gnu 2 Me. So I side-saddles Side-ways to get a Gander @ his Patch which was Sewn On - Not Velcro - Nome I'me Meenun hee-yah. Anyways - He's a Black Man Look-a-Like a Fire Hydrant & Packing Side Heat that ain't BDU O'da Day, anyway. He looks @ me - suspicious-like - I just laugh ( @ Danger, Nome Ime sain ). He Cracks a big-ass smile and says - " SECRET Service "
I said wut's a guy like U doin' in a NICE Place like dis ". He say I'm asssigned to Air Farce Wun DeTail. & President AmBush is Krakkin a Champagne Bottle down @ the Shipyard dedicating the New Wavy gravy Navy Flat-Top - USN Ronald Reagan ( or wuz it Ray Gun ) wid his Lady swingin' da Roped Bottle. He wuz Baby-sittin AF #1 & was on the 'Get US Lunch' detail. now..If yer by-in' - 'm Fly-in'
I tole him where the Plastic Cutlery was - seein' as to how I heard that Pres Clintown had scarfed the AF #1 Playtes & spoons and had removed the W's keys fom Wite Haus KBD's & typo-Wriders - DubYa Thang ya no.. He Said - "I wuz Dare, Dude & dat's all Polly-tickle Lion-in & it goes on alla tyme, jes like THAT. I believed him - I was packin' LITE that day & he had me out-Gunned, out-maneuvered & out-numbered ( it was just him - but it was just ME 2. I didn't have a ARMY with me that day. ) I didn't wish to dis-agree wid him - THEN or NOW as Momma didn't RAISE no Fool-ish Chillen. No Ime seine here.
Here's the BOTTOM LINE :
President Ronald Wilson Reagan once said, "
There's nothing so WRONG with America that what's right with America can't FIX".
I Believed that then - Now I've got my Doubts, Thomas. I came from Immigrants - maybe they knew something that I am just finding out about these days. Do you KNOW what I AM SAYING ?

My Story About Drinking a Brewery Dry
This story starts in Chicago, Il.
I met the Wrong Woman, at the Wrong time, in the
the Wrong Place and when her husband the Proprietor /
Bouncer - It's so Horrible I can't Go On - all I remember
is a Double-Barrel 12-Gauge and my Nostrils being
STRETCHED to the elastic Limit - It' s a Painful Memory
to me even to this day.... But I Digress.
I had to 'Take it on the LAM - packing Quickly.
I ended up in a Wisconsin State Park @ a KampGround
on the St. Croix ( or was it the Mrs. Sloppy Drunk Ribber -
Memory Fails me now.
I went in to La Crosse Town.
I was walking down the street that runs
parallel to the River City's River & was
left-arm-out supporting the Facades of the
local Architecture. Every once in a while, I
would Fall through a Door behind which was
a Saloon or Bar. I'd have a Brew or two & then
the BarKeep would start looking like & behaving
like that Chicago Saloonist Shootist. It was
always like some kind of Mos Isley Star Wars
Alien Bar Scene.
Afterwards, I would get up off of my KEESTER,
which I had been UnCeremoniously thrown out on.
And Talk to the the Closed Green Doors - " I've been
thrown out of Better Places than This - LOTS better
places", I would Protest.
Then I had an Inspiration - I needed to QUENCH
a deep Thirst.
I made a Pilgrimage to the G. Heileman Brewey
which was the Home of the "World's Largest Six Pack".
Huge Cylinders of the Golden Ichor of the God's.
I tore of my Clothes - Naked Drinking is a
Speciality of Mine - made my way to the TOP
of the 1st Long, tall Cool One - and Dove IN.
They turned out to be Grain Silos - the stuff of
un-Finished, Un-Refined Beer is made out of.
I was SO mad that I Invaded the Brewery, attached
the Product Pipe to My Massive BeerGUT Naval Hiose Connection - and DRAINED them Dry.
The Brewery was Bone-Dry Dead & shut down in 1999 - I was
Totally Responsible for it. Now that the Statute of Limitations
has expired, I Publically Confess my GUILT in The Matter.
I apologize to Stroh's, Miller's, Genesee, the present day City
Brewing Company and the citizens of La Crosse. Mea Culpa.
OK. Now could you find it in your Hearts to 4Give & 4Get.
Will the Civic Organizers of the LaCrosse remove my PNG
( Personae Non Grata ) status and free me from the " Banned
for Life" STIGMA - so I might attend OktoberFest - AGAIN.
DuffBeer, If you can tell a Better Beer Story - you'd have to be a LIAR.
Son, I could 'Taste' you under the Table. A PBT ??? NOT in My
Life-Time ! I swear it on the name of Michael Jackson - the recently
deceased KING OF BEER.
Here's your Song Duffer Beer :
John BarleyCorn ( MUST Die )
( as performed by Traffic )
The Lyrics are traditional.
There were three men came out of the west, their fortunes for to try
And these three men made a solemn vow
John Barleycorn must die
They've plowed, they've sown, they've harrowed him in
Threw clods upon his head
And these three men made a solemn vow
John Barleycorn was dead
They've let him lie for a very long time, 'til the rains from heaven did fall
And little Sir John sprung up his head and so amazed them all
They've let him stand 'til Midsummer's Day 'til he looked both pale and wan
And little Sir John's grown a long long beard and so become a man
They've hired men with their scythes so sharp to cut him off at the knee
They've rolled him and tied him by the way, serving him most barbarously
They've hired men with their sharp pitchforks who've pricked him to the heart
And the loader he has served him worse than that
For he's bound him to the cart
They've wheeled him around and around a field 'til they came unto a barn
And there they made a solemn oath on poor John Barleycorn
They've hired men with their crabtree sticks to cut him skin from bone
And the miller he has served him worse than that
For he's ground him between two stones
And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl and his brandy in the glass
And little Sir John and the nut brown bowl proved the strongest man at last
The huntsman he can't hunt the fox nor so loudly to blow his horn
And the tinker he can't mend kettle or pots without a little barleycorn

DuffyBeer,
It is a pleasure reading your posts. It looks like you read most of the blogs. I read a few and impressed with sector specialists like #1 -StockShaw's Solar Energy, #91-MagicNiner's Shipping knowledge, Dividend Value's value investing and #59-CinualEducation's Biotech finds.
Have you found any other sector specialists who helps me understand other sectors
Thanks
PS: I think you are ready to start a MicroBrew and go head on with the likes of Adam and king BUD
