If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.  With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1000.00.  With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.  If you had purchased $1000 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have $49.00 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, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle...

...So it is Beer!

I am gross and perverted
I'm obsessed and deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I am the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can't look away
I make you think I'm delicious
With the stuff that I say
I am the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I am the slime oozin' out
From your TV set

You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that I don't need you
Don't go for help... no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold

That's right, folks...
Don't touch that dial :o :o :o



BEER IS GOOD FOR YOU.  As long as you're not watching the "tool"!
