Al: I apologise if I offended anyone. I have had the great luck and good fortune to live through two of the greatest booms of all time. The oil boom in Texas in the 40's and 50's and the Bull Market which we have all enjoyed and continue to enjoy. In Texas everyone made lots of money, fast money, easy money. When the oil dried up, the money dried up, and everyone was scratching just to make a living. All of us looked back and wondered why in the world didn't we hang on to what we had. That is where the saying came from. I can't take credit for it, but I can sure relate to it. Enough rambling. Again, I'm sorry if I offended anyone. raven
