Mike, and don't bring in any dope. The USofA gave 'em so much grief on smuggling that they made dope a hanging offence. I tried to get a copy of the print in the jetway entry of the airport - some white stuff, a leaf, a few red Xs, and a guy strung off a scaffold by a rope around his neck. Unfortunately, it was out of print or they figured I was some lefty reporter.

They also had an interesting approach to guns and crime. Beyond the punishment for whatever you did, they tacked on 10 or 15 years for using a gun. Then they counted the bullets you had - 5 years more for each! -g-

Regards, Ice

To All, Portfolio notes. In the 90/10 portfolio, I bought a third of CDWC May 65s this morning to go with my May 60s. I previously rolled April 70s down to April 65s then to May 60s. I have no idea why this jive turkey has popped up from the mid 60s, but I know it is a lousy value in the mid 70s. The market has already recognized that fact before I could get this to you.

Dang, what happened to EWM whilst I was gone? And why didn't you make me buy more below 3? :-)
