wxdude,

If you think that's funny, get a load of this.

The stoopid chart says that MSFT was down to 73.25 today. So I looked for where they had split. And the doggone thing said there was no split. Ain't that the darnedest thing you ever heard? I'm going to ask for my money back.

Today my broker calls and says he wants more money.

"Over my dead body!" I replied.

He says I've been called. Duh!! I knew that. He called me. I didn't call him. Stoopid broker.

So he says I got until Monday morning to give him more money or he's going to liquidate me. The little runt is only half my size, so I says "You and what army?".

I think he's been drinking at this point because he threatens me again. So I says, "Who in their right mind is going to put more money into this market? Call me back again when the market is up. Maybe I'll buy something else then."

And I hung up on the little pipsqueek. Serves him right.

These guys are your friend when things are going good, but when you fall behind a couple hundred thousand, it's like they never heard of you before.

Monday should be interesting.
