That we will all die, cold, shivering, hungry, huddled against one another in the Death Camps, hoping that our lives are mercifully short.
Hell, I took a lot of acid and WROTE most of the Saturday morning cartoons.

ROFLMFAO! That explains a LOT that I have had questions about!
Pirates Riding Flying Sharks That Are On Fire (PRFS): -45.23 (-2.29%)
Laser-Wearing Radioactive Robot Cowboy Zombies (LRRCZ): +12.48 (+1.03%)
Exactly. The rails are showing no sustained upturn in shipping. Matter of fact, there are HUGE numbers of rail cars that have been sidelined all throughout the rail network, especially car carriers.
Car carriers are a bloodbath, as one might expect.
I will try to link you a picture of something like 140 Union Pacific engines sitting on a siding, near Fontana, CA. At $2 MM each.
This site is a great source of info for me on rails:

As you can see, things are off in all sectors of rail traffic, but some are worse than others.
I’ve been waiting like a hawk sitting over a squirrel den, waiting to start shorting this rally.
Depending on the volume today, I might start a position today and pyramid it on throughout the week.
Yeah, I get that one. Unfortunately, it cannot accomodate the market’s propensity for self-delusion, the present (now failing badly) need to pump the transports to confirm a Dow Theory buy, and its uncanny ability to ignore EVERYTHING that might relate to economic reality when it wants to, LOL!
Can you get google docs? 118 UNP engines
Captain Hyperbole, your party is waiting....

But today's Oregonian has a front page article: Locals Rail Against Wilderness Storage".
But the real thrust of the article is Union Pacific has idled about 700 center beam (the ones used for hauling lumber) in a local town, but they have stashed about 70,000 rail cars, nationwide.
The article also states that these railcars would stretch from Seattle to Albuquerque, New Mexico if placed end to end.
Mein Gott!
Exactly! And look at what happens when you try to compute the fallout:
(delta)B = abs(PRFS-LRRCZ) = abs(-45.23 - 12.48) = 57.71
F = B^2 * abs((PRFS+LRRCZ)/LRRCZ) + abs(PRFS*LRRCZ)=
= 57.71^2 * abs((-45.23+12.48)/12.48) + abs(-45.23 * 12.48)
= 3330.4 * 2.62 + 564.47
= 9290.11
See? OVER 9000!
On the plus side, these kinds of battles are so fierce that they are likely to open a portal to the Ninth Dimension, from which a race of shadow ninja demons will emerge and immediately take up the side of whichever faction is losing at any given moment, ensuring eternal battle.
Nicely played. ;)
Yep, that’s the one.
