From the f*ckedcompany.com website,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Flake.com was a portal for breakfast cereal. I don't think you
heard me. FLAKE.COM WAS A PORTAL FOR BREAKFAST
CEREAL. I like breakfast cereal like the next guy, but sites
like these make me so angry - not to mention VCs who
support crap like this. "I'm discouraged, and I'm essentially
broke" says the founder.

The best press release ever
Official press release: "All of the directors and officers of U.S.
Digital Communications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: USDI) have
resigned, effective immediately. Presently the company has
no employees, officers, or directors. The corporation has no
assets, no revenues, and no money to continue in business.
In addition, the corporation does not have the capability to
transact business in the future."

Stealth-fuck
You don't hear too much bad news about these guys. But I
do. Apparently Egreetings.com has been experiencing a
mass exodus -- including more than half their engineering
department and most of marketing. The best part is that
they actually threw a "Thanks for not quitting party" for the
remaining employees.

ike,

Speaking of Soros. He has not disclosed where he is investing these days..i.e. what country. He clearly feels both Europe and the US stocks are going to get back to fair value like Japan, a long slow process. Of course he noted that everything over shoots - to the up side and down side.

Maybe we will have global market problems, but Australia seems to have started to perk and could be a winner at least in the short term. Their currency certainly looks like it has reversed course. Canada also seems to be following the Aussies. Both are commodity based economies. Do you have any thoughts?
