Ok, Mr. Small Cap. Did you see this?

"The Russell 2000 small-cap index is up 26.7% from its 12-month low on Oct. 8, through Wednesday. That's the biggest 20-day increase since the inception of the Russell index in 1979, says the Tacoma, Wash.-based Frank Russell Company.

The previous record was 23% in January 1991. That spike began a record-setting year for the Russell in which the benchmark gained 46.1% during the calendar year. Mutual funds invested in small companies in 1991 averaged a whopping 51.8%."

Justa,

Jeffrey: Gotta love the "Bug." Too bad Brinker and Greensapn were driving hard on their way to record highs when he went splat against the windshield .

SPLAT! And here I was wondering if we were going to have to call the Orkin pest control man. No need with Bob Brinker at the helm of the Starship.

Bob rules. I just hope Bob uses this unsung hero article as an entrance monologue to TRASH DA BEARS!!! We have been waiting for the Starship Commander to let 'em have it.

I am seriously sick of this modesty. I want the old Bob back this weekend. Give 'em hell Bob! Get the ginger ale and iced tea ready and GIVE 'EM HELL!
