Got this in my email today... And IMNSHO, it's food for thought.

Liquid Assets...

If you had purchased $1000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today. If you had purchased $1000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today. If you had purchased $1000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today. But, if you had purchased $1000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for a recycling refund, you would have received $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily and recycle. It's called the 401-Keg.

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year. Another study found that Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. That means that on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

My wine cellar is almost empty. I have been liquidating and have occasionally gotten drunk on my assets..........


Good coffee, good weed, and time on my hands...

I got a serious belly laugh out of that one, BT. Thanks.
