RE: Very OT Work versus play Sheila, >Tom I sent you a joke via Email to divert you from >this tech talk. Off for a jog now. Too bad IOM didn't >close above 32. Thanks. I've always liked Mars. <g> There's a reply waiting for you. Really, though, I don't need a diversion from the thread. The thread IS my diversion. Filling out Form 990s and begging for contributions to nonprofits is what I do when I'm in "grind" mode. Watching all you high-rollers (plus Rocky <g>) is my entertainment. I'm glad it didn't close above 32. We want to give the traders and the options jockeys their opportunities. Like Gary, I like watching the MMs kill the gains every day in the last half hour. They can't stop it over the long haul, though, as Peter Lynch so rightly notes, and that's where folks like you and me make our more modest but safer little bundles. I run 2.5 miles four times a week, 8-8.5 minutes/mile. That's a lot slower than when I was on my high school cross-country team, I'm afraid, but it keeps my cholesterol count below 200 and my blood pressure below "normal". Cheers, Tom (long IOM)
