This is an easy way for me to buy some time so I can write a post this afternoon, but below is the entire movie of one of my favorite musicals ever – Jesus Christ Superstar. Just the opening sequence alone is worth watching.
Slope of Hope Blog Posts

The Gartman Grid
I see that Dennis is front-and-center on ZeroHedge this morning, so I thought I’d offer up these thoughts: we all have opinions on the stock market. However, very few of us have daughters that are Senior Line Producers (whatever that means) on CNBC, thus we cannot share our musings with the rest of the world. Happily, there is one Dennis Gartman who is blessed with just such a situation, and he appears on CNBC with more frequency than even the great Janet Yellen (plus he hasn’t fainted on camera yet, not even once).
Mr. Gartman’s pontifications, however, can at times be opaque and thus hard to interpret, so I would like to offer this easy-to-use grid to help you tease out precisely where the man stands. The quadrant is comprised of two simple binary facts:
Horrible Colorful Tie or Open Collar? – Dennis likes to mix up the wardrobe. Sometimes he goes footloose and fancy-free, doffing the tie and leaving the top shirt button joyously undone.

A Divine Message

Friday’s Christmas Carol
Merry Christmas, everyone! To finish up my quintet of Christmas memories, I present to you this delightful offering from the guys at South Park. I strongly suggest you watch the video itself, which you can do by clicking here, but here’s just the song itself below. Oh, and be warned, it is NSFW (not that anyone is at work today) and, umm, offensive to those easily offended.
Thursday’s Christmas Carol
As we count down the days toward Christmas, I wanted each day to share a tidbit of my own best Christmas memories. Today’s entry is, of course, that finest of Slope holiday traditions Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. The entire glorious movie (rebuked nonstop, of course, by Joel and the ‘bots) is below, but if you want to see my favorite clip of all, just click here.
