Now I get it...the close above 21.....all you need is blackjack (sort of). Actually I don't think you have to worry....they keep putting in the curbs every two minutes on the dow in order to hold back buying that's how ardent the buyers are today, Currently AMD is at 21 3/8 and has been around that most of the day. So I think you will win your bet.

Ignore my post about you not being Italian. Have to tell you an interesting anedote. There is an old Italian film about the holocaust called "The Garden of the Finzi-Continis". I don't know if you have seen it but I saw in a college class on the holocaust. Its a true story about a family who lived near Venice before WWII. It was an incredible film.

A few years later I became friends with a guy who was related to the Fincis. To make this more interesting, his father is one of the founders of Qualcomm. The point is that inspite of the holocaust, the Finzis survived. I guess you can get how big an impact this film had on me.

One last comment. I had a friend in school who was from Italy who told me that anna f'napoli (spelling?) meant going to hell. It was only when I was in Europe a while later that I figured out that to Italians going to Naples was like going to hell.

PS I hope you are not originally from Naples.
