roflmao I hate it when drinks that go down go up. ---------- in a hyperinflation you have to pay for e.g. a drink as soon as you order it...as it's price will likely go from $5 bn. to $6 bn. while you gulp it down...

I recall reading an anecdote from a Brazilian shop owner just a few years ago. He closed the store, went on vacation for 2 wks. to Disney World or somewhere- came back to the store, and paid for the vacation by marking up his goods at the going rate. Who says inflation is all bad? hohoho BTW- I read this morning that nat. gas rates will be raised 100% this winter in Louisville, KY. Got blankets? <g>
