Not really related to this thread, but whatever... I saw this and thought I'd pass it along for your consideration/entertainment:
"If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago, you would have $49 left. With Fannie Mae, you would have $2.50 left of the original $1,000. With AIG, you
would have less than $15 left.
But if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drunk all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling refund, you would have $214 cash.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle!" :partyman:

Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
