David, I just returned from a week's SCUBA diving with my sons in Roatan, a small island off Honduras. There was no TV, no radio, a malfunctioning PC, and nothing else but coral reefs mattered. Some fellow got lonely and called home, then reported the DOW had sunk 269 points that day. I was deeper underwater, metaphorically, than the DOW, so focused my attention on French and Queen angelfish and brilliantly colored parrotfish. Surprisingly, though the DOW was down, the technology sector made some neat gains and my meager holdings were up for the week. I tried to save enough to buy that Big Mac and pepsi if DELL goes wild, and am always sufficiently hungry to consume them if IDTI catches some analyst's eye. My guess is we'll both have to be patient a while until I figure out how to control several little factors such as the Japanese yen's value, the confidence crisis in Russia, eight toothless little Asian tigers, and whatever version of the truth Bill Clinton decides to reveal next Monday. To that effect, I'm now dealing with what I was recently able to pick up on Caribbean voodoo, as well as earlier documentation I have about Shakespeare's three witches in Macbeth. Empirical scientists are always ready to try anything!
This thread has been peaceful lately, and I'm willing to combine forces with other warlocks to juice things up a bit. Good luck with DELL, and say a few kind words about the sub-thousand dollar PC. Sam |
