I can't focus today.

[xqqmytude]

It may be from the severe lack of sleep this weekend.

I keep refreshing the DJI ticker. I feel like if I work, I'm missing something monumental.





I'm so gonna get fired. :D

Hey I have days like that all the time.

I'm a bit blah today myself. im taking off pretty quick here for awhile, i have my car absolutely crammed full of all my aluminum cans, trunk and back seat are packed. Im going to recycle them and see how much $$ i get. hahaha.

Sadly, that will be the highlight of this day. My job isnt very inspiring, other than it beats unemployment.

Don't worry the market will still suck tomorrow :P

[Phil513]

Think so? Think the sell off will continue tomorrow too?

[Phil513]

good lord, as of 2:30 pm eastern, it was down 715 points.

*gulp*

It will drop until the panic stops, Euro and asian markets took a beating today. I doubt there will be a turn around until this plays out a bit.

It's a good time to buy...just ask Warren Buffet ;)

Don't they have "speed bumps" in place that will stop trading if they get below a certain level?

Yeah, they take a break if they lose 1,100 points. It doesn't mean it won't continue to fall when trading begins again.

[Aahzz]

I've got about 50% focus today - which is actually not bas for a Monday.

[Denverdave]

Only down 445 pts right now..... only ::)

I've been running between my cubicle and the basement (when the phone PBX is - one of my side jobs) all day. I'm about to make trip #15 or so. There is my exercise for the day....

[Phil513]

WOW

I just got $64.80 for my aluminum.


Yay me. I can counteract the plunging economy by drinking more.


;D

Ha. My dad is a pack rat. My parents took in a bunch of old junk a couple of months ago. It included a big ol' metal freezer from the 1950's that worked like a champ until it died in March. They got $600!

[Phil513]

Thats amazing.

Mine was all cans. 1149 of them, if i counted correctly.


*burp*

[Mark Wein]

Good god....we have a ton of recyling in our garage...I know what I'm doing tomorrow...

[Chihlidog]

OK, that does it, I am going to hang out outside steeler games and collect all the beer cans. I think this city probably generates more beer waste than the entire country of Germany.
