Hehehe.<BR/><BR/>I just drank more as I watched the tickers scroll by without me... It was like a drinking game. One shot for every $1 crude fell... One shot for every 100 points the DOW moved in any one direction.Ben Bittrolffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12465978905157927856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1258979445050968882.post-25899576027428999042008-07-22T14:49:00.000-04:002008-07-22T14:49:00.000-04:00Any (free) internet on the cruise?

There are going to be more bailouts and political manuevres that might breathe some temporary life into things... kinda like how the rate cuts spiked the S&P 500 from 'lock limit down' @ 1255 to 1440 before this last shit.<BR/><BR/>Expect bounces.
