LOL David: Well, he didn't copyright it, so too bad! <g>

I thought is was funnier when you said it anyway. :-)

No offense, Scrapps, but that's because I didn't see yours. -G-

On stocks: What do you think of the drillers? If I remember right you are bullish on Parker Drilling, right? I missed getting CDG by 1/8 many months ago (cursed limit orders -G-), but now I'm getting interested again. I don't think world demand for rigs is slowing, nor is the demand for oil. At any rate, CDG earnings (and others) projections are very nice, and PE starting to look very attractive. IMO this is all just chart action and fund selling to lock in profits. This is also, I admit, the opinion of The Motley Fool - but I agree with it.

Thoughts?

I think you missed my point. The story that Scrapps posted was actually the follow-up (Part II) to the story YOU posted.

When I read the story Scrapps posted, I was curious as to the particulars to the story. It only told about the woman and her mother and law getting jail sentences for "making pickles".
I figured that there had to be more to it.

Now that I read YOUR part to the story (which was actually Part I of the saga), It makes alot more sense.
Well.....about as much sense as a story about being sexually assaulted with a cucumber can make.

That guy was just Damn lucky that Watermelons weren't in season.

Plane takes off without pilot in Ohio

Federal investigators said Monday they will try to figure out how a vintage propeller plane could take off without its pilot and fly for more than an hour before crash-landing into a farm field. Sunday's mishap involved a 50-year-old, single-engine Aeronica Champ which took off from Urbana Grimes Field near Dayton, Ohio, after pilot Paul Sirks got out to hand-crank the propeller. "It's a little peculiar so we'll be looking into it," Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Tanya Wagner said, adding that she had never heard of a case where a plane took off on its own. The plane buzzed the field and then flew north for nearly 100 miles before running out of fuel and smashing into a farm field.
