It would be interesting to see which threads are leading in the Cool Post count. Seems to me a lot of them have been coming from my favorite thread <gg>. I decided to kick off Operation Ostrich this morning, so with the Nasdaq crashing, I turned off my computer and went to the YMCA, where I got a flu shot and followed it with an hour and a half work out. Low and behold, when I got back home, the Naz had gone from -150 to +20. I urge you all to try it. Turn off your computers and do something productive for yourselves. It's a righteous process. uf
