I do like Rep. Ron Paul. He is one of my favorite politicians. Living in Chicago, IL. That means a lot to me. The first time I noticed him, was back in college(Northwood University). The head of the Econ. department, Tim Nash. Had a Libertarian Ron Paul for President bumper sticker on the door of his office.
Change in Tone at the CME? There is a source that says that Corzine knew of the improper loan. Commodity Customer Coalition" Mr. Duffy approached us during lunch and told me that he was going to support customers and our priority over MF Global Holdings assets
Let's see, if she steps forward. This harresment case is benfetial to President Obama. Involving court settlements. That reminds me of the Jack Ryan case. Jack Ryan withdrew his senate run due to unsealed court documents. This helped Obama to win the Senate seat.

Yikes, he lead his fellow shareholders to a very long and large Slip and Slide of red.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings was having a nice journey with Netflix. Now, he screwed it up. Losing 800,000 subsribers. He should be one of 2011's top smucks CEO. Excluding the bankers, he should be highly ranked. imo
Rest in Peace Steve Jobs. He will be remembered as one of the greatest innovators of this century.
IL. Sen Dick Durbin put that debit card provision on the Dodd/Frank bill. I wonder if he will tell Citicard debitcard holders to cancel their accounts? Like he said to BAC debitcard holders.
Thanks for the extra info on the ciruit breakers. SSS posts should be included in a buried time capsule. This what makes the SSS board a great board.

I just wokeup. I would never thought of a closing drop like this. Well, I look at the bright side, the sooner for it to reach bottom? The better. However, sad that there are people getting real hurt financially.

IL Senator Dick Durbin is proposing a bill. To tax internet sales in the national scale. Here in IL, Amazon dropped all the affiliates, when Il did this locally. Imagine, if that bill passes? Would Amazon move operations overseas?

Being happy is what really matters. One example, look at several of these Hollywood celebrities. Rich and famous. However, we could probably name so many that ruined/killed themselves.
I am so glad that I am out of debt. Today at work, it was very busy at times. UPS comes in, logging them in. Then Fed Exp shows up. Finish logging, calling for notices. Then check in the laundry. If there is no NFL season. I should get a NFL cheerleader as an intern. lol
