Yeah but OPEC is going to apologize on Monday for overcharging everyone and issue rebates for charges over $50 a barrel and promise to cap prices at that level. :) Also you forgot to mention the wars have nothing to do with how the economy is doing. GW, one of the world's great all time...

Agree. They are hysterical. :D Maybe some are real. There are some real morons involved in the market and Yahoo message boards is a magnet for these people. Poor babies. :) The guy that said he just shot his dog though isn't funny. But the guy that said he should have shot his cat maybe is. :D...

Thanks for sharing that. They maybe would want to wait a few days for a better price but if they wait too long maybe they get taken down too much themselves along with a market selloff. If this does happen it would maybe temporarily, with an emphasis on that word, stabilize the market. But then...

:D

Perhaps you didn't read my post which said, "I didn't say I had a problem with them." I was just commenting on the fact they're maybe handling withdrawal requests differently maybe due to market conditions and especially due to what happened to BSC. Seems to fit right into the discussion here.

I was thinking last night, it terms of the second shoe to drop analogy, that maybe this will be more like a shoe store in an earthquake with shoes tumbling down off the shelves.

Nicely put. My exact sentiments. This has all been building up for years and now the shit's going to hit the fan. The Fed's going to run out of bullets here shortly. Then what?

I didn't say I had a problem with them. If you don't care just ignore the post.

Thanks. :)

BTW, FWIW I just put in a request to withdraw $1,000 from my IB account. No big deal right? Well usually it says under status, "Pending". But today it says "Request Under Review". Ha. :) Maybe IB is worried about a run on their accounts too. Hmmm. Not sure how our money is backed up there. I...

Nothing personal, but you're just a permabull boss. My take. And you're living in Delusion Land. You're way too complacent. Seems like you've never seen a real crash before or even a near crash. There are some really serious problems that have been created and GW telling us to be patient until...

They're not going to do that. That would bring more panic not less. Problem with the Fed is they waited too long to deal with all this, although it's not a problem the new guys created, and now they're maybe going to run out of bullets to fire to stop this. Look what happened in Japan, although...

Thanks for sharing this. I was wondering about GS as they have performed really well through all this. But was wondering about their own exposure too. Thanks.

BTW here's a link to the Frontline show called "The Crash" circa 1999 about the Thailand meltdown/LTCM debacle. Including this timeline. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/crash/etc/cron.html Frontline has some great shows. Used to be able to watch the whole show online, but maybe...

Those things only work for so long. Look what happened in Japan, although there were differences. They're going to run out of bullets maybe as they waited too long to take action. I was wondering why there weren't any Black Monday threads too. Things seem very shaky to me. It wouldn't surprise...

Actually I was going to put XP on one and Vista on the other. But I think you may be right. One thing though is Vista has a different booting order and mode than XP so it's not that easy. And right now I may just install XP Pro SP3 on the empty one and remove the other for now. I just need to be...

Think I saw this one before too. :D Ha. Thanks for all the links. :)

Yeah it's great. :) http://www.bensbargains.net is the best place to look for this coupon and many others. You need to keep looking and when you see it go for it immediately as they sometimes only last a few days. Good luck. Also http://www.notebookreview.com is a great site to learn more about...
