<<Are you going in the same direction?>>

Actually I'm almost 50% cash. I'm preparing for the day in the not to distant future when with trembling hands I must write the largest check I have written the proceeds of which will be gone forever.And the only thing to show for it will my not having to go to jail.

Most of what is left is too thin to get out of even IF I wanted to ....which I don't. But my screen is to boring to watch as for the most part I own many more shares in these issues than are trading daily. So I spend my time hanging out on the beach solving the worlds problems and playing bad blitz. Wednesday I'm going to SJC to meet up with an old girl friend that I haven't seen in 35yrs and found using the internet....Ain't cyberspace grand?
Next trip will be Santa Fey NM and perhaps the FLA keys for some bone fishing....In short I'm spending my time onna mouse beach till this thing blows over.

<<data from outplacement firm Challenger Gray & Christmas showing a 34 per cent fall in planned job cuts at US corporations, the market is now looking for equally bullish non-farm payrolls data on Friday.>>

You can see planned job cuts going down painted as good news.
