machinehead Posted August 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 CSCO down 8% from close!!!!! Ridiculous! Pathetic! Why can't we decide to just wind up the Nasdaq stock market at an agreed-upon final index price of say, 500? Then we all just quit, go home, and do something socially useful for a change ...

The brown one Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Times must be approaching the status of 'hard' in Germany with inflation on the horizon. Gheez! Speed Limit? In Germany?! 8/10/2004 5:25:27 PM by Vadim Pokhlebkin Yes, you heard right. The world famous, bullet-fast, no-speed-limit German Autobahns may soon become just like every other highway -- boring. According to a recent poll, "the majority of German citizens would welcome the introduction of a sweeping speed limit on Germany's notoriously fast highways," reports the Deutsche Welle. The proposed new speed limit is 130 kmh. This may seem "fast enough" for most people, but come on... For every speed fanatic, or even for your average, law-abiding car enthusiast who's ever dreamed of someday "opening it up" on the German Autobahn, this is the end of an era. (And dare I say, an abomination.) http://www.elliottwave.com/features/defaul...id=1165&time=pm Well,I guess that settles it.No point in buying that new Porsche I've been promising myself JOKE! There are quite a few people in the Netherlands with fast cars that regularly go East just to be able to open them up! Just to see if the manufacturer's quoted top speed is accurate!

zensmoke Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 You're Fired..... Update 11: Trump Casinos Filing for Bankruptcy 08.10.2004, 05:32 PM He made millions in real estate, built a casino empire and conquered television with a reality show that turned "You're fired" into a national catchphrase. But Donald Trump's glitzy, neon-trimmed casinos have busted. Now, they're headed for bankruptcy court, a $400 million bailout and a new corporate structure in which he surrenders much of his control. The roulette wheels will keep spinning and the nickel slots will keep eating coins at Trump Taj Mahal, Trump Plaza and Trump Marina, but parent corporation Trump Hotels & Casino Resorts Inc. may soon have new bosses calling the shots. http://www.forbes.com/home/feeds/ap/2004/0.../ap1499378.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregFokker Posted August 10, 2004 Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Rich just dodge tax, says BushUS President George W. Bush today said there was no point in taxing the rich because they just dodged their tax bill anyway. "Real rich people figure out how to dodge taxes," he said during a campaign stop in suburban Washington. If I had known that a guy like Dubya could ever support himself, I wouldn't have bothered working in school. His rise to power is a living refutation of the work ethic that underlies the American Dream. Brains and hard work are no longer necessary, apparently.

machinehead Posted August 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2004 Cisco Systems Inc. Chief Executive John Chambers said on Tuesday that he expects revenue in the network equipment maker's current, first fiscal quarter to be flat to up 2 percent from the prior period. Hey, tech investors! You're paying thirty-one times earnings for a cyclical, stagnant P.O.S. whose top line may not even grow next quarter ??? What are you, nuts?
