Yes, the markets are definately making some people !!?? lol

We know that bad markets can make people act in strange ways. But
this story may take the cake, or corpse, as it were. Italy's ANSA
news agency reports that a man who has reportedly lost plenty of
lira on the Milan stock market wrote a letter admitting to
stealing the body of legendary Italian banker Enrico Cuccia from
a small cemetery near Lake Maggiore. The corpse thief wrote that
he will only return Cuccia's body to his family if the "Mib30" --
an index of Italian blue chips -- recovers to levels not seen
since early last year.

"You will think I am mad, but I'm not," the man wrote. "I'm just
exasperated." With U.S. blue chips currently resting six feet
under, we certainly feel the thief's pain, though we contend
there are more constructive uses for shovels.
