Just plowing back into the big apple...

...so ive beeen abroad for awhile, trading out of london and havent been keeping up with the WSO flow. I tried to check my inbox but its swapmed and i cant get a handle on it...cant pull the signal from the noise if u know what i mean.

Could somebody please give me the 500 word update? Or preferably the 250 word update? Is Eddie still a drunk? Does Illiniprogrammer still think the the state should attempt to corner the grain market? What have i missed?

By way of update from my side, no change im still in there slinging and I think above all have to respect the Fed until the bernak changes his tune which isnt going to happen because he's stone cold.

-Eddie is still a drunk -IP has been quiet lately but is slowly working on a plan to get his tax returns in the form of Wonder Bread -Apparently people take Seeking Alpha seriously and pumping AAPL every day can help you raise a fund -There's been an unexpected glut of "best [insert inappropriate place to network] to network at" threads, particularly gyms, night clubs, and charity ballroom dancing events -The market doesn't make any sense but then again what does -CNBC seems to care a lot about what prepubescent-sounding women think about equities lately -WSO Compensation Report is out and it's pretty badass, refer to TheKing's post for details -As a result of the Compensation Report, people are posting Company Reviews and Compensation data like crazy -The forum pretty unanimously agrees that Vladimir Putin is a badass.

I think that just about covers everything...
