Time for a little Humor...OT: Twas the Night before e-Christmas by: JoCatman (From Yahoo) 12/20/00 4:51 pm 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through eComm Not a business was surviving, not even a dot com; With options worth nothing, and the shareholders in despair, They had hopes that Alan Greenspan would soon show that he cared; The investors were all worried, fearing eCommerce was dead, While visions of high interest rates danced in their head; And Mr. Greenspan with his friends, did play out their hand Even though inflation had eased, a rate cut was not planned When out in the market there arose such a clatter, That even Cisco got pummeled, tortured, and tattered. Away to the brokers each investor did run, SELL, SELL, SELL, the new mantra had begun. With the election just over and the land covered in snow The possibility of recovery seemed quite low, When, what to country’s eyes should appear, But a strange man from Texas riding a young steer, With beady little eyes and a suit that was so new, I knew in a moment it must be George W. More determined than Gore to win the big game , We whistled and shouted that Clinton was to blame; "Now, Jebb! now, Colin! now, Cheney and Trent Lott! On, Katherine! on Baker! on, Carter, well NOT! On to the White House! to the top of the mall! Now go away! go away! Hillary and all!" Being that he was, as is supporters did claim Friendly to technology and big business the same. Never mind the environment, the earth and the sky, The hope was that he could make the stock market fly. He sprang to his office, to his team gave a speech, That the problems at hand a solution they must reach. But we heard him exclaim, as he retired out of sight, "HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO AL GORE A GOOD-NIGHT!"
