I'm really not a big voicemail guy. Recently I've received heat for not picking up my phone for everyone who calls. Well, No. 1 I'm probably on the phone with someone else, but No. 2, if you leave a message, I will call you back (or better yet shoot me an email to call you). I would prefer voicemail being delivered to me in text/email form.

It's not that I dislike being on the phone - I'm on it a lot - I just like to be in a routine and schedule calls when I can.

++ MANY HOURS SPENT WATCHING MARKETS: I can imagine most would NOT consider this fun. Some openly admit it, however, and good for them. I know I don't necessarily, although it seems like I spend hours a day READING those who do ... what sense does that make?!?

++ TOP 10 CURRENCY TRADING TIPS: Everyone has their top tips for trading, and most it's all regurgitated stuff. It's done to draw attention, and Trading Post isn't immune from it either, I guess. It's redundant, but what's a few minutes?

++ FOREX BROKER THOUGHTS: Lately I had began thinking that Rob Booker was becoming a busy body has been. He's everywhere doing everything, and now spitting out seemingly mindless trading analysis, and he hasn't been sending me trading signals which I had previously subscribed to through him. All that said, most everything is forgiven because of a rather sober and insightful post he made on brokers.

++ BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND: Dear Pierre, this is a line from Stephen Covey, the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People guru.

++ IDIOT WAVE 101: For all wave enthusiasts, Brett Steenbarger has something for you ...

++ RAGHEE IS NOT AN IDIOT ...: Far from it, but Raghee Horner was a blogging queen yesterday. Five posts in one day! I think it's a new blog, so I'm sure the vibe comes and goes with her. Hopefully she stays consistent with it. As far as PX90, Raghee? Mine has been on the shelf unused for a year now - I just find it easier to go to the gym - wherever I am.

++ NEWS AGGREGATION: Not to be confused with "aggravation." I'm going back to Steenbarger because he is one of the most prolific and relevant bloggers out there. And no, I did not steal his idea to put thoughts together this way. I just know this is the way I like to read things so I've figured it's how I will share things, too.

That is a lot to think about for now.
