We have a few charties here who make music from squiggly lines on paper also.
The pianist - with his life and studies strewn across his upright - above, is bashing his way through Fantasia by Franz Schubert. (Schubert died from a complication of a disease that Pisces would have contracted if he had lived in the 18th century.)
It's minus 6 ouside and Geoff has his coat on because the heating is just high enough to prevent water freezing in the pipes. An expensive mistake he doesn't want to pay from his dwindling super again this year.
Working on experimental radar during WWII, he followed up as a physics teacher until his retirement 25 years ago. A reminder to you self mangaed types that investment STARTS at retirement.
Scottish floosies
Particularly if you have a young Scottish floosy like Geoff does.
Well, not exactly a floosy and not exactly young. Geoff's highland lass is a 75 year old grandmother who still keeps the anti freeze moving in Geoffs lymphatic glands - I gather.
What has all this to do with the XJO thread? A fair question. He is a scientist and a musician and has something in common with our very Trendy Miss Bear.
Geoff hand draws stock charts and reckons he is getting a 10% average return on each trade (12 trades a year)
He is also the reason that Honeydew has jetsetted to the UK for 6 weeks. Geoff's her dad and is turning 90.
HD told me on the phone that he was excited and looking forward to passing on his 10% method to me...as he held her hand and walked through the common.
As many on this thead would know, when you've lost your dear old man. Other's fathers are especially appreciated.
Miss Jane also appreciates the music in the charts and some say, Mr Squiggle put her onto it.

Reminds me of last Thursday night's dream PB.
