Michael, seems like just yesterday that someone on this thread (PC ?) was calling for a Naz of 3000 and that seemed like an outrageous suggestion - damned if we aren't knocking on 4000 this morning. Again, I have no idea what will slay this beast, if rising interest rates won't, but it can't happen a minute too soon for me, I'm losing my rear end in opportunity costs here. No commentary on MU's report today, or did I miss it ? Enjoyed your column all year long (and before) - have yourself a great Xmas and New Year - Regards, DN

You must remember this, a kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh, the fundamental things apply, as time goes by. Merry Christmas Dude!

Mike, In case I don't get another chance, just want to wish you and all the regulars on this topic a very merry Christmas. Also thought I'd share one little tidbit with you. As I think you know, one of my hobbies is bridge, and I play online on a clever program called "okbridge," which allows you to play in real time against folks all over the world. Guess who plays on it almost every night? Warren Buffett. When he comes to New York City, he plays in a big money rubber bridge game, but it is somehow comforting to know that this guy, who manages megabillions of money, has nothing better to do most nights than to play bridge on his computer. Bill Gates has also taken up bridge and plays from time to time. At this point, Buffett is a much better player; for the right bribe, I'd be happy to lose to either one of them. Ho Ho Ho, DF
