Merry Christmas guys. The gas fire in my artificial fireplace is still on. So I guess Santa won't be popping down and giving me my gifts.

Anyway, here's what I have for all my loyal readers...

- Street Fighter: The Later Years - Part 3

- Chacha.com

Chacha.com is a new search engine. Rather than just ask a computer program, you can ask a human guide. I think they're even real humans! This opens up opportunies for lots of fun and games. What would they do if I asked how to assasinate Mr Bush? Or even the more humble search for city strip joints?

Anyway, to keep it clean, I started off with a question about Bund strategies...

Status: Looking for a guide ...
Status: Connected to guide: SimaB
SimaB: Welcome to ChaCha!
You: Hello
SimaB: Hi! What can I find for you?
You: Are you the latest incarnation of CERN's AI algorithms?
SimaB: I'm sorry?
You: Are you a robot or a human?
SimaB: I am not sure what you are talking about.
SimaB: I am a human.
You: Wow. it's very good of you to stay up and chat. Santa will be down the chimney soon.
SimaB: What can I find for you?
You: I'm looking for trading strategies on Bund Futures.
SimaB: Bund or Bond?
You: Bund. German Government Bond Futures.
SimaB: Ok..let me see what I can find for you.
You: The problem is, most of the stuff on the interweb is based on obscure chart patterns known as "technical analysis". I'm having trouble filtering them all out.
SimaB: Give me a few minutes to find the best results for you!
You: thanks!
SimaB: Still searching..
You: OK. Take your time. I've been searching for ages and can't get any decent results.
SimaB: Check if those are helpful..though I imagine you have seen them already.
You: thanks. Not exactly what I was looking for. but I guess that's my fault for not being more specific.
You: Anyway, I'm off to bed now.
You: Good night.
You: Merry CHristmas!
SimaB: Sorry I could not help you more.
