Yeah- What happened to MM's holiday buying spree? hoho

Sign of the times- Local papers had 2 announcements today:
1) OTIS Elevator announced trimming of 240 jobs. Moving production out of country.

But wait- these people won't be out of work:
2) 40 new Steak and Shake restaurants to be built.

Toffler was right. We're all gonna be cutting each other's hair for a paycheck. <ng>

haven't you done enough sniffing already ... unless you are short the bond market, why should you care if it collapses

higher borrowing costs? Issue more equity ... gets rid of the problem of having earnings, too ...
