My stock broker just called me .......
Advertisements [?]
.... now we all know that in good times and bad, stock brokers love to blow sunshine up your ass. Mine is no different. He's got this megawatt sunshine thing that he uses. When he shines it up my ass, my head lights up and all my insides are revealed (mmmm ... the stents are holding pretty well, there ...... )

Anyway, Little Mister Sunshine asks how I'm doing.

"As well as can be expected given the fucked up economy, fucked up banking system, fucked up government and fucked up financial markets. How about you?"

He's been better. Wants to know if there's anything he can "do" for me.

"Yeah, buy my old rental at my old asking price and I'll buy some stocks from ya."

"Ha ha ha."

"No, really, Kevin. Buy it. I'll make ya a real deal."

He did the verbal equivalent of rubbing his toe in an arc in the dirt while I did the verbal equivalent of chewing on a twig of straw. We both did the verbal equivalent of shoving our hands in the back pockets of our boot cut jeans.

"Welp .... call me if there's anything I can do for ya."

"Thanks Kevin. I will."

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Kevin thinks that when we got down to 7800 a week or three ago, that was it. We'll test that bottom a few more times, but that was it.

Right.

Yup.

Uhuh.

So .... wanna go down to the Grange Hall for a beer, Kevin?
