Pat - Also remember what this silly market has been doing.... If the numbers are bad tommorrow it might sell off but, the way they have been they go up on good news and flat on bad..... But also ...alot of folks are looking for a reason to tank so they can chase regular folks out and buy the "Dells" cheap...... I hope it's good numbers for a good rally but I figure they told everyone to go on vacation then they had a few start selling slow (rotate & fluff) - When all the brokers get back they will jerk the last cash...let it crater and BUY BUY BUY as it free falls..... OK I admit a little bitter today... My @#$(#-&#@ calls are sht right now.... As we said in Texas a few years back: "Please Lord, please let us have another oil boom (rally??), I promise I won't P$ss it all away this time!!!" Byram

Patrick, I learned a long time ago not to talk to non-investors about my mkt activity/trades. They freak out at the idea of hard currency being put at risk just with regular stock. The average person with investment capital is only comfortable with mutual funds, as you probably know. Nine out of ten times I've found that talking about a trade I have on or potential investment candidate causes me to change my plan and make a mistake. The avg joe on the street knows nothing/zero/zip/nada about investing/trading, so why even bring their thoughts into my mind, it just messes me up, no matter if they're your best friend, spouse, father/mother etc.
