So I have a bunch of accounts with Etrade and some $(#$&% retarded ANALyst gave some crystal ball prediction that Etrade might declare bankruptcy over some write downs in it’s mortgage business. So their stock dropped by 2/3s and now people are talking about someone buying them. I moved most of my money to Etrade… Read more »

Alanna was at her studio most of the weekend for Open Studios, while I was trying to get my motorcycle back up and running. After charging the battery and putting some gas in, the bike just didn’t want to kick over. I guess I will keep trying.
