Default Fed slashes interest rates 3/4% to 2.25

Pretty soon the dollars will be so worthless THEY will be paying YOU
interest to borrow it!

Gold was below $980/oz, too, off from $1050, but don't expect that new
yacht to drop at the dealer...(c;

We're in very serious trouble. They can't keep plugging the holes in the
dam for ever.....

Diesel rose further above $4/gallon making you a genius to buy a sailboat,
not the Azimut.

"Diesel rose 1.3 cents to a new record national average of $4.015 a gallon
Tuesday. Delta Air Lines on Tuesday offered buyouts to 30,000 employees,
about half its work force, and said it will cut domestic capacity 5 percent
this year to cope with soaring fuel prices."

Of course, this is NOT at the MARINA!
