More Quick Hits

  • Folks can get in a big argument about The Laffer Curve and supply-side economics.  But without taking sides, I thought Andrew Tobias made an interesting comment today:  the interest we paid this past year on the National Debt was equivalent to about 40% of all the money we paid in personal income tax. 

  • Lindsay Lohan?  Drug use and bulimia?  I thought she looked a little washed out the last time I saw her.

  • Jason at The Trend on the possibility of new market highs this week! 

  • This is a good one from Ticker Sense, on Bear Stearns' history of Google recommendations.   Is it their fault?  Does everyone get caught up in the emotion of it all?

  • The American Bar Association (ABA) gave a thumbs up to Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito today.  Aren't those hearings coming up?

  • Well, the big money comes in near the end of the trading session.  We've had two strong closes in a row.  Better than the first two days of 2005!
