Market Rally!

* Market is up again. Funny how that works. TV gurus are saying folks will want to step aside to avoid the election uncertainties. The exact opposite happens. Am I glad to be long? You bet! These strong market moves happen very quickly and are usually almost over by the time the crowd tries to get a little piece of the pie.

* Kerry is up in the electoral count, according to polls. The polls keep swinging, because we're within the statistical margin of error of 2-3%. So, call a 1000 people one day, call 1000 people the next day, and you could get flipping and flopping of who's in front. It's close!

* Are you watching Lost? I like it.

* Red Sox in an anti-climatic World Series. Congratulations!

* Life at the Fun Factory is kind of boring the past week. In between projects. Good time for that, so I can follow stocks and blogs! And election stuffs.

* I'm so tired of veggie sandwiches. I'm walking tons. Eating healthy. Feeling fit and all. But geez, I think I want a fish burrito or something for a change.

* Red Sox Curt Shilling endorsed Bush. So you know, cookie!

* Remember to set the clock back an hour saturday night before you go to sleep. Change your air filter, fire alarm batteries, and the cat box, too.

* Ralph Nader says the reason Bush and Kerry are basically tied in the polls and the race is so close, is because they basically have the same views on everything and there's not enough difference between them.

* So, importing drugs from Canada. Canada imports them from the US based on some price agreements with the drug companies. Drug companies raise prices to US customers to subsidize lower rates to foreign customers. What happens when US customers start buying from foreign sources? You got it. Drug prices go up for those folks. And then there won't be much advantage to buying from Canada anymore. Why doesn't Bush say that instead of the gobbly-gook about "safety?"

* I'm out walking around in the Fun Factory, evesdropping on conversations as I pass folks. Mostly women out walking, talking about this and that, nothing too interesting. Shoes or something. Then I pass a couple of guys, and one is giving directions to the other on where the strip clubs are. Just a different perspective.

* Yeah, a grilled fish burrito.

* Election fiascos underway. Lost absentee ballots, dead people voting, etc. Predictable. You just hope that if there is cheating, both sides are cheating equally enough to cancel out the effect. C'mon, lets get an accurate vote, okay?
