<< >Cost me $1,500 today, damn it ...

Stop moaning; I'm out a nice little Mercedes so far today :-) Those
are the breaks. Do note that the volume isn't all that heavy and it
is not accelerating. It looks like the bladder pressure has been
relieved by now. Quite possibly a lot of people will rethink their
decisions to sell over the weekend.

Cheers, Torben>>

Torben:
You don't understand, if you have 10 Benz to lose, losing
one is no big deal, but if you only have $1500 to lose,
then losing $1500 is a big deal.
It is how much you lose relative to how much you have ...
not the absolute amount ...

Both of you quit moaning. I'm out a cottage on the lake in Maine. Anybody else want to join the "poor me" brigade?

Hopefully a year from now BMFM will be back his $1,500 plus, TNN can get his Mercedes, and I can retire! (I promised my wife she could retire if the stock got and stayed above 50 for a year. Can't tell you how excited she was when it was above 50, or how depressed she is now.)
