Ah, now I understand. I've wondered about the ties between the NRA and the KKK since the Ruby Ridge Senate hearings. It's a scary thought that in this day and age, David Duke could be considered as a serious candidate for ANY public office. I don't think we've come nearly as far as we'd like to believe in erasing the color barriers.

flish- I hope for your sake that your investements are in their steel industry. The last report I saw reported their profits up around 60%.
I, on the other hand, am not only spending more for steel, but it is being rationed to North American manufacturers.
Rationed? Yeah, this is a word normally associated with war.
But in this case, the steel is being used to build-up China's infrastructure so that they can build more factories to compete with US manufacturers. To help them along in this venture, Bush has kindly tied the value of the dollar to the yuan.
If this is an economic war, it's pretty hard to make believe that Bush in on our side.

Sorry Thor, didn't mean to derail into Bush and economics. I'm just a bit frustrated right now.

I wish I could say I had, but, no. My best bets have been on domestic consumer retail. My worst have been on tech (despite that being my apparent knowledge-base).
Get hold of a Scientific American on the newsstands and read that article about the addicted brain. That stuff is messing you up, dude! I hate that! Come on and start over again. You have got a lot of important stuff to do in your life. You have your movies to make and a girl to love and the world to save.
It's really great to see you back, though!
The wars on drugs and terror we need to fight differently. We need to approach them both as spiritual strivings within, perhaps. Which is actually (ironically) the true meaning of the word jihad.
