Hi Candle Stick; I was looking for a source of really really really
fancy tulip bulbs. I've got money that I really really really don't care
if I lose burning a hole in my pocket, and I want to pay a really
really really high price for some bulbs. Any ideas?

I really have to get rid of this cash! Everybody is making so
much money investing in fad stuff and here I am just with cash
in the bank. I've got to catch up with my friends, who are
telling me about all the money they are making.

I've already got an excellent source for $500 plush toys, but I
still have cash left over, and I really really really need to get rid
of it and to buy something totally over-priced like beanie babies.

P.S. Apologies to all. After the market closes my moron mode
sometimes turns on.

CS,

Intel warned big time after hours, so if AMZN follows the other techs tomorrow you probably will be right about the $70 comment!

I don't think that the folks who ran this in the last half hour got out - some shorts were forced to cover but I didn't see enough small stuff. If the rest of the tech sector (and AMZN which is retail but everyone calls it tech) follows Intel these guys are going to feel some pain. I let the whole thing scroll off into never never land so I can't go back and analyze more carefully - any thoughts?

More bad news, folks. Beginning tomorrow at noon,
the U.S. government will purchase all of its literature
exclusively from Amazon. All Federal employees will
be forbidden to purchase literature from any other Web
sites, whether for official use or even for recreation.
Apparently President Clinton had something to do with
the decision, so this should easily tack on another 20
Points. Other Governments will soon follow.
