OT & back at ya, Liz

Like you, I used to work at a tech firm; actually defense. Then a deacde on Wall Street. Prior to 2002, I was heavily invested in internet, techs, and biotechs. Heck, I had next to nothing in cyclical and commodities industries. After I retired from the Street in 2001, I had to squeeze fully 40%+ of my tech holdings and move into high dividend paying investments. GOOG, BIDU, and IWM are small steps for me returning to more tech since 2003.

Because I am no longer 95% tech as in pre-2002 and 50% or so now, I am just about even for this year.

It has been very boring.....indeed.
