Guess you never had the roast duckling with black cherry sauce at the Old Riverton Inn in Connecticut. Fantastic!

BTW. Wasn't yesterday's ramp job one of the best you've seen lately? From 3:35 to 3:55, the DJIA went from -50 to +10. I was busy shuffling some papers and almost missed it.

Perhaps as an old hand, you can confirm something for me? If you buy shares of a dividend-paying stock before the close on the day before it goes ex-dividend and then sell the shares sometime on the x-div. date, do you get the dividend? I've always thought this was so. I hope I am not missing something?
