Unfortunately I am not short due to lack of dangling things in my pants, though some of my shares went up last night.

Please do not forget to do the pelvic thrust victory salute before entering the bimmer, and then let both birds fly, remembering Murphy's military law # 8 that says "There is nothing more satisfying than having someone take a shot at you and miss", but adding your corollary " ... except when you take the shooter out with a bio-sludge headshot"

I did come home early from the extended happy hour last night at around 12:00 local time and rushed like a kid for the Gateway keyboard, face aglow from the illumination of NEC screen, satisfying my curiosity that all was red, with only specks of green.

I uncharacteristically refrained from buying anything this time, thinking that Monday will be worse. Much worse, as the storm zip past California from NYC, brew a bit over the weekend with folks reading Barrons and talking about (what?) ..., hit Tokyo head on, grazing Hong Kong (HK typically will over react, as the gamblers and flower ladies are all momo players, and long term is a few hours), splashing Taiwan, sinking Philippines and Thailand, eventually making its way to Europe where folks tend to be more conservative and have more memory ... them folks will run for the hills and leave the historically brave Americans to face the Monday morning special effect storm.
Chugs, Jay
