11. I'm losing my bet with hubby today. I didn't think we'd close below 7800

before the end of the year.

Can I be the eternal optimist and predict that we'll see a recovery now to stay above 9000 before the end the of the year? Or does that make me the eternal dummie?

:shrug:

[Liberal_in_LA]

37. Thank God It Passed!

Assholes.

Not hearing much from the professional touts anymore. Banks got the dough, Treasury declares derivatives all smoke and mirrors with no actual value of any kind so they won't buy them, banks eliminate competition with our money.

Everyone rushing to become a bank just to line up for the looting.

And, oh yeah, fuck you John Q. Taxpayer, while we sit on those funds instead of lending them out like we said we would.

We got ours and we're gonna keep it, suckers. Thanks for the dough.

Let everyone else fail on their own.

I wish I had business ties to Paulson. Bet I could get a good deal on a gently used private jet.

[sarcasmo]

38. Hey where is operationmindcrime to collect his royalty for that phrase, LMFAO.

[Ikonoklast]

Just give it time to work.

Yeah, right. It only takes a mouse click to steal billions.



Clueless.
