Pay a scalper for State AA tix. I'll probably have to resort to it even if my favorite uncle isn't that charitable this year...

I'm not sure what the conflict is - the choice is obvious.

At $10 below its 52 week high probably not a bad idea! In fact, the whole market is on sale right now

I think you're misunderstanding. He inadvertantly said
a ring. What he meant to say was
The Ring.... He's going to buy it on DVD to watch on his new LCD tv.

This is more of a comment about the economy as a whole, but given the cafe readership this is just as good of a thread as starting a new one. I read an article yesterday that said the World economy and specifically the U.S. could be positioned to experience one of the five worst financial crisis in modern history. How do you feel about this? Is the government and Federal Reserve taking the appropriate steps to prevent this or is the sub-prime mess to wide reaching and destined to have very damaging effects to our economy no matter what the Fiscal and Monetary response is?
