Heard on CNN that the clown who shot up the internet office today had just had his wages garnished by the IRS, because he failed to pay inflated quarterly estimated taxes against some stock options he excercised earlier in the year. The ol' "You owe 100 grand on stock that is now worth 50 bucks, too bad" .. Since he didnt have the money to pay this ridiculous tax, the IRS decided to take it from his paycheck directly. And thus, he went postal. Not surprising at all. I give that stupid tax law about 3 months before it is overturned. That and the estate tax are HISTORY.

Yah, dont you know buy the financials, cause they always do well when the fed cuts. Just like in 29,74,90 right? JPM and AMX will hold DOW. Of course IBM at 89 is SOOOOO cheap, and HWP is a real value play, cause the PC is here to stay. -GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG-
