Shades Re: "Jonathan" So O'Reilly was really on his case, huh? He likes to do that, to find another conservative and pick a fuss with them, makes O'Reilly appear more "fair and balanced". O'Reilly is a tough rascal, several years ago he punched a guy in the nose down in the Virgin Islands somewhere. Thats really the best way to settle a political disagreement. That or dueling. I have a book here somewhere that states that America has been all downhill since dueling was abandoned. Keeps disputes between gentlemen polite. <grin> Phil wouldn't have lasted long in those days though, for he would have been challenged to a duel every day by some stockbroker or planner. And maybe a few Gang Members. <g> He is a nut though and I plan to listen today as I have missed him for a while. Ben Stein's UTES and REITS will go down the slippery slope if the fed continues to raise rates. But if they stop as they may due to Katrina and oil and the rest then the things could fly, at least for a while. I'm betting they fly and with a fairly serious stake. These foreign bond funds look good too but I am ready to bail as usual. I'm back in FDG today for I think the fourth time this summer. This time the idea is the "divvy run" like back in June AND also that the Canada school teachers union may have finished selling their stake. And there is a split coming. I hope this one is as good as the others. JPM could do well as long as low rates are perceived. Big divvy too, but be ready to bail. Slagle
