    I remember when JCastwell ran Charlie off from FAOL, because Charlie knew more than J! LOL

    Had my interest till he dropped the "F" bomb. Although there are few if any places for using such language, a recorded promotional interview certainly shouldn't be one of them.

    Mark,
    Most of us seniors do not use that kind of language in a public conversations, or approve of it, but he is a talented guy. I particularly liked his research and explanation of the various tying threads on the market today. Call his shop and tell him to watch his language. He'll probably answer the phone. Merry Christmas!!

    John, It's not the language nor did it "offend" me or need my "approval" it's his judgement in choosing to use it in that context is where I lose interest, talent or no. It's not my place to call and correct him. He is either reaping the rewards for his character or paying for same.

    I agree with you Marco. A man's character is often discovered by listening to what comes out of their mouth. Merry Christmas to you and yours and may you enjoy a blessed and healthy New Year.

    I suppose writing a satire article is one thing, but an experience/informative one is quite another. In this case, word choice/expression shows not only bad choice but a lack of respect.
