Wow, monday wasn’t great after fridays’ slide. Down most of the day and up at the end to barely finish even. Then the crash this morning.
I sold back on the first as I figured it would get ugly 13000 is the month and a half low, so he’s still got a ways to go, about 150 points.
Bwahahahahahahahah!
The year Bush the Younger was elected, I ventured one day on my "roots" tour into a small hotel in Kells. The proprietress, an older woman who obviously felt she was one of the most important people in the town, if not the entire Republic of Ireland, took me to task over Bush. She angrily raked me over about how he was like Hitler and would plunge the entire world into war, etc etc blah blah blah.
When she finally let up, I said, "Ma'am, as soon as I return to America, I will go right over to the White House and tell him your opinion." Then I turned and left, savoring the memory of the befuddled expression on her face all the way to Galway. Europeans, and leftists in general, lack any understanding of scale.
Boy,ain't *that* the truth.The greatest gift that the British ever gave *me* is having driven my grandparents and great-grandparents out of Ireland.
