Hank, Thanks for the good belly laugh. My endorphins are a little more balanced now. I got zip response on my question about placing stop orders under all my long positions, and it is getting close to my lunch appointment. Seriously, what do some of you do?

Hank - We missed out - too bad. We could have had AMZN at 199; it is now sinking below the open at 181. I'm sowing on my finger again, cursing the knife. We'll never get a chance like this again; Amzn will now drift quietly to 10 and Roger will be a rich man. A cure for cancer will be distributed for free, aspirin will be de-invented, and everyone will come to their senses. Kailash

hank... >>All I can say, "this whole internet stuff is CRAZY!" << Is this mania or not. I swear to God that the following is true. Today I was listening to a call in finance talk show. The caller asked "is this a good time to buy EBAY, it has come down from 320 and is now only 280! The talk show host said no it is not a good buy. The man kept insisting it was since it was down from 320. The host recommended he buy AT&T. The caller said, and I am not making this up, "Who is AT&T?!!!!!!! It went on from there with the host actually having to spell out American Tel and Tel! Tuplips anyone. The end of this is near. Bob T.
