Severly OT - Anyone remember that discovery (or something) show on UFOs that looked like little fast-flying sticks? If so, do you remember what they were called? My co-workers and I have been laughing about those all day. I'm looking for a web-page on it, but "flying sticks" doesn't seem to yield any results. smirk If you have no idea what I'm talking about, it probably wouldn't do any good to explain. g llater, Tony B

CD: WM - They are a regional bank that is growing very quickly. They are expanding into Nevada now as well. Banks have been out of favor for about a week now and WM has gone with them. They also just recently redirected their efforts to a new set of goals. They are planning to increase their ROE but they also expect to reduce their eps by 2% .... that along with the out of favor banks has dropped it. I told myself that if I could get in back under 30 again, I would take it. I love WM's philosophy of business. They have a refreshing way about them and they are as close to being a credit union as any large bank can be. I would like to hold them long term as I have little doubt about their long term performance, but I will take 5 points or so if it is offered. Tj
