What you are talking about is not investing. It is gambling. I am a gambler, but..... Mike, speaking of gambling, do you see a contrarian play in this beaten-down sector ? I think you like SLOT and maybe a couple of others but what about the big operators like MIR and MGG ? They have been smacked pretty good on worries about over-capacity in Vegas and new competition. Interesting article in Forbes about Kerkorian cashing in his chips on DCX to buy back more MGG. The old boy has a long record of right move at right time. forbes.com John

MB>>> What you are talking about is not investing. It is gambling. I am a gambler, but, to use another of your terms, not with serious money. My gambling money does much better on the ponies. Yes, the trainers, owners and jockeys may be bent now and then, but, on a whole, they are much more honest than corporate honchos. <G><<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< It's good to see you know the difference between bullst and horsest. The trick is to see both before you step in it<G>
