Haiku for Investors

[OldAIMGuy]

April, 2004...............

Stress levels will peak
for one who has stopped smoking
causing trading hell!

Stress levels will peak
watching Financial news shows
like they have meaning!

Staring at the chart
hoping to unlock secrets
for healthy profits

Late snow overnight
Tulips with frozen petals
No time to notice.

"Code of DaVinci"
Made me totally wincy
So badly written!

Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.

Today it is not working.
Windows is like that.

Your file was so big.
It might be very useful.
But now it is gone.

Stay the patient course.
Of little worth is your ire.
The network is down.

Your expensive computer
To a simple stone.

Death, taxes and lost data.
Guess which has occurred.

But the water has moved on.

Out of memory.
We wish to hold the whole sky,
