VoltMan, I am fully invested we could stretch the Bollinger limits for days and even weeks I honestly sense a massive spurt to Naz 4400 quickly the big winners will be midcaps the burst signal is CSCO, now at 69+ once over CSCO 70, Katie bar the door the phillistines will be trampling down the walls two fave gap plays: Infospace INSP and Conexant CNXT smelling a big move by Ditech DITC also tremendous looking charts for each next week has some wireless conferences in Europe, so I am told could light small fires under select wireless stocks / Jim

Lil,honest to gosh,true story: I have 2 1/4 doggies as some of you know...min.schnauzer, wild haired terrior(Terror) and chihuahua(the 1/4..to small to qualify for a whole one.lol) that was my Moms dog and I kept after Mom passed away in 97. Now Tyler is the schnauzer and a BIG mamas boy (me,mama..lol) Angel (misnomer) is the lil chihuahua and Sandy or as I call her...Her Majesty the terrier (holy Terror). ;-) The dynamics of this terrible trio is odd to say the least and funny many times yet hair raisingly frustratin at other times. I picked up Sandy as a stray and took her in my home and she became my $1000 dog. (yikes). She immediately took to climbin the fence and climbed up a tree and got on the limb to jump over the fence in her efforts to chase squirrels. (hates'em). Then one day she leaped out the front door before I could catch her and like a kamakase(sp?) leaped into an oncoming truck. It knocked her ten feet in the air and skidded her across the street into a heap. I raced to her limp body, picked her up to see blood coming from her mouth and gashed up,bloody legs. Cryin my eyes out, I got her to the vet about 10 min away. Astonishingly, she had a crushed molar(tooth) that was removed and a deep gash in one front leg that had stitches and a nasty scrape on the other leg that was medicated and bandaged. The Vet said he could not believe that she had no broken bones and not even a fractured jaw. He said you cant believe how much impact it would take to crush a molar tooth and not cause damage to her jaw bone. I took her home and the next day with bandages from her toes to the top of her front legs she was off and running stiff legged like nothing had ever happened. I then got a radio fence put in and she wears a collar that will give her a warning sound if she gets too close to the fence and will zap her if she continues on further. (I zapped myself first before putting this in. It doesnt really hurt but like a static electricity shock, you really dont wanna do it again.) I figured better zapped than dead. Ok, that was background on Her Majesty and yes there is a point coming up to this tale/tail. :-) Her royal majesty(HRM) terrorizes birds, squirrels, Tyler and Angel...but not all at once. She seems to have mutiple personality syndrome or as I call it, "wears a different hat each day". Today was "I hate Angel" hat day. When she decides to jump on Angel(chihuahua) then Tyler jumps in to protect the smaller dog and will put his entire weight on HRM to just hold her down. (he never tries to hurt her, just to stop her from hurting Angel.) HRM on the other hand is ready to rip into Angel and Tyler with no provocation at all other than she just has that "hat" on that day. Once Tyler holds her down long enough she calms down and the incident seems to fade away. Food is always a BIG factor for her and she will lay down in front of the "community" food bowl just to keep the other two from getting to it, even tho she isn't the least bit hungry. When I let her outside the other two will stay in so they can eat. Most days she has her "non commital" hat on and is seemingly unconcerned with me or the other dogs. (nice, quiet day that one):-) Tyler is very easy going and "dogs" my every step and is very protective of me. He is a sweet lil ole boy but a real baby.(dont know how he got thataway.lol) So, one day Sandy(HRM) does the "mutltiple hat day" and she hates everyone. Seems like I was breakin up fights all over the place. I put the other two out and got her in my lap and just started hollerin at her. "WHAT DO YOU BRING TO THIS FAMILY????" She was NOT impressed...LOL. I was so frustrated and said to her again..(yes, out loud.) we love you but you only TAKE you never seem to GIVE back ...so what's up with that? You disrupt this quiet family with your overbearing, selfish attacks and then act as tho you could care less whether it causes anyone pain and suffering. By now she is REALLY lookin at me and lookin around for an escape plan. So, I continue tellin this "Icouldcarelesswhatyousay" critter that we love her, feed her, nurture her and will always do so. Woofitywoofhaha. Then it dawns on me...oh mah gawd, ahm sittin here talkin outloud to this dog as tho she is gonna "get" the "dog"gone point of what ahm sayin!!LOLOLOL...geesh. Glad there was no one else around or they'd a been cartin me off to the doggyfunnyFarm. LOL. Ah love all mah critters...and even HRM brings an independence to the family that ah must admit on the good days, ah do admire very much. Think there is a point in all this but have rambled on so much mah pore lil ole muddy brain lost it but ah know ah had one when ah started. LOL(Depy feelin stupid about now). Soooo, will just have a game and ask the Porchies to see what they got out of it...that should be fun and interestin to see the different points of view. Thanks for lettin me share that with yall, hope ah didnt bore ya to death with it. Have a dang good weekend and be safe and happy, Depy
