The Singing Psychic

* Did you see the psychic on American Idol, who "saw" herself in the top 10? After failing miserably, and Simon chiding her for failing at two careers, she recovered by saying she was in the tenth chair on stage or something like that. Who knows.

* The market today was pretty strong. 3rd day in a row. I don't know if we're in some sort of topping process in the market or not. For some reason, it kind of feels like it. It'll be interesting to see some of the market internals if we get back near the rally highs. Microsoft earnings afterhours was pretty good.

* Social Security Choice is following the reform debate.

* Nah, I skipped the debut of the latest Simple Life with Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie.

* "Democrats do nothing", says the Governator.

* The world of psychics is interesting. "I see someone special in your life, but you're having some sort of issue or conflict." Isn't that the usual line? Then the person being analyzed fills in the blanks, and the psychic continues on...

* In a marketing slight of hand, those Fat Free chips with olestra are now being marketed as "Light."

* The 44-yr old trying to pass himself at the American Idol audition as a 28-yr old? Too bad he couldn't sing worth a lick. I wanted to see that back and forth continue a bit. He was kind of funny.

* I've noticed some of the trees are budding. Spring can't be that far away. Isn't that the way it is? You get a little optimistic on some sunshine and some buds.

* More and more companies seem to be blocking web access from work.

* Here's a prediction, if that singing psychic keeps that weight on (she's huge), she's going to have some health problems down the road.

* The Paycheck Guy retired. I've written about him earlier. All he seemed to do, was hand out paychecks once a month. Good news, is that there was some knowledge transfer, and nothing will slip through the cracks now that he's gone. There is a new Paycheck Girl taking over his spot. Probably a very seemless transition as far as us workerbees are concerned.
