so last sat i woke up after hanging out with some friends and having a few drinks the night before. It was nothing that would have me hungover the next day but sat morning i woke up and the room was spinning non stop. Even when I have been my drunkest I had never experienced a spinning sensation quite as severe as this. I figured for some reason my body was having a tough time processing the alcohol the night before so I tried to sleep it off. Pretty much ended up sleeping the entire day and night sat and sun I woke up with the same sensation. At this point, my body was so worn down I could barely move around. Soon after my body was so worn down from the spinning that I started puking pretty much every half hour. At this point I headed for the ER where I was diagnosed with a severe case of Vertigo. Trust me you DO NOT want to experience this. It was awful. Imagine doing that thing where you put your forehead on a bat and ten spin ten times and the sensation immediately after you put your head back up. Now imagine having that sensation non stop for 72 hours. Yup, WORST THING EVER. After the spinning subsided I was still left with lightheadedness and blurred vision all last week. That is starting to subside as well now but quick head movements and physical activity will cause it to come back. I am going to follow up with my physician but I am guessing she will tell me that I just have to wait it out.

So anyways, thats why I havent been on the board lately. Did some catching up on what you kids have been chatting about.

- Heaves, I am not available july 28th weekend but dont plan things around me.

- That kyrie irving thing was awesome and im not just saying that cuz hes a dukie.

- Facebook... Joo, what about facebook makes it appealing to you? I am very bearish on facebook, especially with how ridiculously high the IPO price was. It was outrageous. In case anyone cares I currently bullish on

Google - duh. This is just a safe pick to diversify portfolios with

Apple - ditto

Fusion IO - this got hit a bit with the Facebook hit due to FB being it's biggest client. But if you feel cloud computing is going to be the future then fusion io is going to be one of the leading technologies to get us there. This is prob my favorite stock currently and has the biggest chunk of my portfolio. I bought in at 22 and have an order to get more at 18.50 if europe causes it to get there.

Ford - 420 hp, v8 mustang = 26 mpg highway. Synch technology. Didnt need a bailout during the crisis.

Starbucks - They are getting into the k-cup business which green mountain roasters has shown can be very lucrative. Also they are expanding worldwide, especially in asia. Even domestically, if you just walk into a starbucks you can see from all the people in there plugged into their laptops that their "2nd home" approach is working. As working remotely becomes more and more the norm with our society, more and more people will flock to starbucks.

If anyone has stocks they are currently bullish on let me know so I can research it and decide if I want to add it to my watch list.
