FD: How about a joke from a friend...

If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you
would have $49 left.
With Fannie Mae, you would have $2.50 left of the original $1,000.
With AIG, you would have less than $15 left.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all
of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND,
you would have $214 cash.

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

alcohol a year. That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to
the gallon.
