<g> sipping tequilla never works....that was a large shot glass. I took 2 gulps to double my pleasure.<g>
<g> spinning table? LOL, I thought you were clinching the table very firmly<g>
Saturday night I wanted Saki, but couldn't find any ;(
I had a great time and really enjoyed your company, and Rudi,Carolyn,Marie,Jane to.
ok....now, it's Monday morning and I can get back to the type of gambling I really enjoy....
I assume MSFT may be a good play, although it has had a nice run already? Maybe not the best play but an obvious one...I'm thinking SUNW and perhaps a few drug stocks. But, should the bore eek out the electoral college the drugs would be hit hard. I suppose JDSU will do well, AMCC,INTC,JNPR? BVSN? Maybe EMC...but for options it hasn't been a big point mover. I know I haven't really given it enough thought yet so I'll be trading by the seat of my pants....I'll be reading the options box thread closely today.
...ooops I better GIT, I forgot where I was.<g>

<<Investors are expected to flock to tobacco, health care, pharmaceutical and defense stocks if Texas Gov. George W. Bush is victorious. Bush is seen as a loyal supporter of these industries and less likely to impose regulations that may crimp profits.
``The consensus view out there is a Bush victory might be better for the stock market,'' said Nick Sargen, J.P. Morgan's global market strategist for private clients, with about $80 billion under management.
Bush's push for tax cuts and some privatization of social security also pleases big business and many investors.
But under a Democratic White House, America has enjoyed its longest stretch of continuous economic growth -- and a soaring stock market.
If Gore wins, despite his recent slight lag in the national polls, government-backed mortgage stalwarts like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may attract interest. Pharmaceutical stocks are expected to dip in the short-term, given Gore's plans to cut the costs of prescription drugs. Tobacco stocks may also sag.
