nobear, i know today will not go down in history as anything "historical"...

but imo today was the day that the "rubber hit the road" for the bulls and bears...i saw many stocks meet 1st time resisitance today...and i've been screwing with this market (that i really dont believe in) for a long time...

imo....from today on, we all work for our money......

all of the "zombie stocks" found a new base today...

and although the deficit hit "$1.38tril thru august"......

i have to remember that when bill clinton left office we had a $xtril surplus..

when bush left office we had a $xtril deficit....

when obamamama took office we have a $xtril deficit....

when obama leaves office we will have a .....who the f' knows???

but things never seem to stay on the same path for long....so anyone saying that there will be a $20tril deficit 10 years from now might as well be reading tea leaves...imo

like the man said "you rolls the dice, you takes your chances!" C'MON!
