You blokes are hopeless. When I get drunk I don't type-slur my words and hang out at BYOAC, I just force myself onto the missus in a drunken stupor while mumbling stuff about Jessica Simpson.

That's the real Australian way.

See, now that's the difference: The American way, for me at least, is to force myself onto Jessica Simpson. Hell, I don't even need to be drunk!

INVESTING FOR YOUR RETIREMENT

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be
worth $49.


With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original$1,000.00.


With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.


But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of Beer one year ago, drank all
the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you
would have had $214.00.


Based on the above, current investment advice is to drink heavily and
recycle.


It's called the 401-Keg Plan

Speaking of tracks, we have a horse race on today for which we get a public holiday. (Bones still has to work cause he's in NSW.  ;D
Unfortunately, I'm broke so I'm not going to the track today.
