So what will be the reason tomorrow? Anyone care to guess? Global economies relatively stable Economy growing at a steady even pace Fund managers must be returning from vacations soon (with truckloads of cash laying around) Interest rate hike already factored in (shouldn't go up anyway, causes inflation, the very thing to avoid) Inflation and wages stable (jobless claims up today) Weak dollar means more sales to overseas markets "Read my lips, no new taxes!"...yet Bill Gates buying Q out of petty cash (not even a rumor, don't take this seriously) Will everyone come to the party tomorrow? Well, we'll see.

SPUD...re Tomorrows Excuse....here's an article from todays paper here in N. Ca.....true story....( sent to Mq earlier today)..AP.....CALDWELL, Ohio...When a Kennedy Space Center computer programmer thought the sky was falling, he headed for a cave in southeast Ohio.....Deputies responding to a report of an unfamiliar car found Lloyd Albright, along with camping gear, dried foods and 16 guns, said Noble County Sheriff Landon Smith......" He very sincerely thought there was a meteor that was going to hit the Atlantic Ocean and cause a 200 foot tidal wave.." Smith said..." He was trying to hide from this meteor."..Albright was found Aug.10 and had been in the cave since at least Aug 8 Smith said Tuesday.....He was arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct, then released after posting a bond following a night in jail. He was escorted to the interstate and told to head home. Albright,47, who works on space shuttle data processing, told the Columbus Dispatch that the meteor strike, from the Comet Lee, could occur anytime within nine years....NASA said the closest Comet Lee will come to earth is 77 million miles by the end of Sept...................HMmmmmmm...gg...Tim
