You never know. The fed may announce an unplanned 3/4 percent drop in
the prime with a promise of more next week in an attempt to prop up
the stock markets.

Is it a sign of panic on the part of the Fed? Will the consumers view
it that way?

The 'consumers' are idiots. You need to get out there among them. It
will make your skin crawl.

Kind of reminds me of a friend of mine who told me one time that his
business would be so much easier if he didn't have all those
customers.

That MUST be it. My francs might finally be valuable enough that I can
REALLY clean up! But overall, these foreign exchange rates have ben
killing me. Those euros especially! I tried to pay the phone bill with
euros, but the damn euros are so STRONG now compared to the worthless
dollar that it was unaffordable! I had to cancel my account.




I paid for a 99 cent burger from Wendi's with a Euro, and I got so much
change back that my pockets were more stuffed than my belly.
