** Thinking Out Loud ** If Brinker normally defines an intermediate term correction as lasting from 6 weeks to 6 months, I wonder what is his rationale for believing that we might not see new highs until around a year from now.

I never seen more bears on the financial television shows than I have the past two weeks. My goodness, almost everybody I saw thinks we are either going to test 7400 or sink right through it within a few weeks.

The television mind set had the release of the Clinton tapes on Monday as the reason for the market's action today going into next week. I don't get it. The street can read the Starr report. They know what the deal is here. Making a bad movie of it should not cause the market to go into a tailspin.

*Off Topic*

Did you happen to catch the discussion between Bill Gates and Buffett a while back? I ran across it on the internet somewhere. Awesome.

Yes sir. I am anxiously awaiting its release during Fall pledge drive (per phone call).

Have you seen the video from a couple years ago when Warren spoke at North Carolina? Good too.

If you are interested in reading a great book pick up Andy Kilpatrick's new book, "Of Permanent Value: The Warren Buffett Story". Of course I am biased since I know Andy. You can order by calling 888-BUY-AKPE. If you order direct via this number and ask him, he will probably sign your book. I am trying to get him to sell Market Clappers and enclose our catalog w/ each purchase. HA!!

I am having about as much luck as I am w/ Justa letting me sell Mary Kay via the catalog. HA!

For the record, I thought highly of Andy's books before I got to know him @ the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting. The books were the catalyst for me to call him up.
