* I took a long weekend and came in this morning to a firestorm of questions. Twelve balls in the air, and I was a little foggy on the specifics. Took most of the day to remember who was working on what and to catch up on the goings-on. Geez. I need more than a string around my finger. 12 strings. With notes.
* Summer always feels like it's winding down when the fresh strawberries are gone.
* Greenspan jacked 'em up another .25%. Looks like the economy is chugging along, and he's trying to keep it from overheating. Where will he stop? That's the guessing game du jour.
* The market did well, but almost yonked into the close. If I had to guess for an SP500 correction level? That's a tough game to play. I prefer to wait for a correction, a rally and then a retest of the correction lows. That is somewhat easier. Uh, somewhat.
* I'm not quite that excited by the battle of the reality titans in Donald Trump vs. Martha Stewart. I'll probably watch them both.
* Looks like Europe is trying to appease Iran. Iran seems to be laughing it off.
* See this Korean guy who died after playing video games for 50 hours?
* Vegetarians need more B12, study says. According to the study, "Vegetarians are advised to eat more meat." (It doesn't really say that.)
* I'm not a fan of the Black Eyed Peas. I don't get it.
* A rare night time post. Stayin' up late on the West Coast! (I'll pay the price early.)
