2 billion + shares traded on the Naz and CNNfn still saying "better volume but not huge volume." What are they looking for -- 5 billion shares? INTCfan

THE PORCHERS TURN THE MARKET AROUND?..YES SIR!! SURE DID!! What did the tell Dorothy? You just gotta believe??.Well I believe the MM have been watching this porch for a sign and the little old porchers gave it to them today. I will start by telling you that as we sat quietly on the porch last night a guy no one had seen before started running around the porch with his cell phone in the air??yelling Help! Help! I got a Margin call?.Here come the Fed! Here come the Fed. And polvie in his kind way volunteers to make a suggestion to the fellow. Geez! No one else did. Then here come one of the clowns starting to call folks names and the old timers decide we didn't need that on the porch. Not today! So Clappy got his whip out and started working on the clown. As soon as the market opened who comes up the River in his boat but Dalin, dressed in the craziest getup you ever seen. He had loud paint all over his face, spear in his hand and doing the market dance. He said something about it being spiritual. What ever we didn't question him on it cause we ready for anything. Whatever works. VENKIE was sitting on the porch mumbling something about being "Sick to Death" of this market mess and Arthur Pritchard overhears VENKIE mumbling and tells him not to hold it in and to shout it from the porch. INTCfan hears VENKIE yelling and comes over and said he was going to sell everything. He gets his broker on the phone and is so confused he starts buying instead of selling. Dangergirl, pooped out from delivering ponies wakes up with all the yelling going on and starts using words like sucks, talking about something sucks. I just assumed she was saying that this market sucks. A car screeches to a halt in the drive and out jumps Annette talking about disowning QCOM and she had been screwed. She nnever did mention the guys name. I was calling the law and she put that car in reverse and headed out as fast as she pulled in. Dalin still dancing yelled over something about CNBS was getting tired of the Ups and Downs of the Market and he stated he ain't seen no ups and what the heck were they talking about. Somewhere right in here I heard Jill say; "I wanta have your attention please! I am the one that said leap" Well everyone looked around and there wasn't enough room for us to hardly sit must less for all to start leaping and we just sat there stunned that she wanted to start playing some sort or Frog game when everyone was really beginning to get upset with this downward spiral. Dealer had been over there sipping some of that lemonade that had been spike with some moonshine and started cussing the way she does best shouting "Darn it!" "Darn it!" yes sir, I believe she even said it 4 times. INTCfan starting to train dealer to cuss telling her to lay on some double drats!!..I was surprised but she started saying drats in from of everyone and then she add that she was mad as H#%$ and wasn't going to take it no more. Just got a post and sure nuff even leggs said she sometimes gets so mad in days like today she can just come out before she knows it cussing saying "Shoot!" Well it kinda shocked me but I don't think she'd care if I repeated that bit of information amongst us friends. Now don't ya'll let anything I said in this post go no further than this porch. There was a big ruckus on the porch and we could not figure out what all the shouting and celebrating was all about and looked around and polvie was presenting to Abstract the prize for the 20,000 post. Well! After President Clinton called congratulating Abstract he was beside himself??and asked if Greenspan was anywhere around and was there anything that could be done about this market??? (see everyone on the porch was doing their part today to turn this thing around.) Well you know polvie nothing impresses him and Rosie being from Canada could care less about Clinton so she and polvie are sitting over there trying to out do each other in Word ball. The market started rebounding about this time and Clappy comes out dressed as a clown but he wasn?t about to utter the work bonehead or we would have all jumped on him cause we didn?t recognize him in that getup. Just as the market is closing and we began to celebrate the little up swing, thank to all the folks on the porch who strolls in but those living the stress free life??swinging their golf clubs Rob and Joel??Well! They act like they didn?t have a care in the world. Phone rings and Jill answers it reporting back that Voltaire is sipping screwdrivers on some beach south of Atlanta??.He knowed all along that the market was gonna head up this afternoon. OK!! BRING OUT THE BOTTLES UNCORK THEM AND LET?S PARTY DOWN. AND MORE GOOD NEWS: COONAZ IS FIXING TO POST ON THE BOARD SOME REALLY GOOD NEWS???
