Cap’n stace

Hey mom and dad, in case you are interested, I thought of something I REALLY want for Christmas.

When I was stationed in Louisiana and Hurricane Katrina hit, we were moved up the state for a while. While we were there, a couple of the guys bought air guns and we had so much fun shooting them. It hurts when you get hit so you learn not to get hit!

I want my own air gun so I can get used to the feel and have better aim. I am having trouble deciding between a rifle and a pistol. I really like a pistol but I had so much fun using Cook’s rifle. It was a multi-pump pneumatic. Maybe I should choose the pistol though because you had to cock that rifle. That meant not getting as many shots. They are usually only capable of shooting one round at a time, needing the mechanism to be re-cocked to shoot again. I could get an electric motor type but that gets me away from the look I like. Ok, I choose the pistol. I really like the UHC model UA-937. It holds 6 rounds of BBs. You just pop open the cylinder and pop in the shells.

Lucky you! The pistol is very economical. That is, IF you want to get me one. batting my big brown eyes

If you REALLY want to get me one, LOL, you need to go over to the PyramydAir.com website. They have a big selection and right now are offering a 5% savings. You get the 5% off coupon if you find a mistake they have purposely put on their site.

Dad has been talking to me about the best ways to invest. I have been looking at information on the Internet and ran across information that caught my attention. The Wealth Expo is held for investors wanting to learn different and new ways to earn wealth. The Expo is sponsored by MyWallSt.net: Your Financial Social Network. Many well known investment professionals are keynote speakers at the three day event. I wish I could go. I don’t have any wealth yet so I could be a sponge with all the information I need to soak in. I want to learn to do the right things when I am able to invest.

Just in case I find the time and a way to get to the Expo, I am blogging this in my blog so the information is easy to find. Feel free to take note that the New York City event will be held from Oct 19-Oct 21, 2007.
Location: Jacob Javits Convention Center

New York, NY 10001

Friday, 10/19: 1 p.m.-6:30 p.m. EDT w/ a cocktail hour to follow

I would love to sit in on Tom Barrett’s seminar, “Safe, Defensive and Profitable Investing”. I won’t have a lot to invest so I don’t want to take a lot of risk with my money. I also would be interested in listening to Jack Hough from Smart Money, speak. He is going to be talking about “Your Next Great Stock”. I would love to hear what he has to say. I have been reading about his process called stock screening. He says, “tomorrow’’s top-performing stocks are giving off clues today, and the world’’s most successful investors don”t wait to stumble upon those clues; they find them by searching the entire market in seconds using a process called stock screening.” I want to know more!

This Expo offers a wealth of information on investing.
