Bear Stearns is an interesting outfit. I wonder if they hung onto that IOM short until it finally came home? They were under water about 300% for awhile.

You left out 16 year old kids with their own helicopters in your ponzi list. -g-

I wonder how PPI was only up .2% with oil going up so much?

another example of the mania---

today, a clerk asked me if they should put some extra money they had into Janus 20 fund....I said I'd wait, but she said, the market keeps going up....I said I'd wait because there surely will be some correction......she said ok....

she said she got into Munder Internet Fund in Feb and is doing great....she wished she had put the money she's been saving in a bank over the past ten years into the market instead.....her sentiment is such that she felt that the money in the bank had been such a waste.....she said everyone is making so much money in the market....only if she would have thought about it or paid more attention to this phenomenon sooner......

the media and the hype will bring mucho pain.....
