The GFC

1. The US has made a new weapon that destroys people, but keeps
the building standing. It's called the stock market.

2. Do you have any idea how cheap stocks are? Wall Street is now
being called Wal-Mart Street.

3. The difference between a pigeon and an investment banker: the
pigeon can still make a deposit on a BMW.

4. What's the difference between a guy who lost everything in Las
Vegas and an investment banker? A tie!

5. The problem with an investment bank balance sheet is that on
the left side nothing's right and on the right side nothing's left.

6. I want to warn people from Nigeria - if you get any emails from
Washington asking for money, it's a scam. Don't fall for it.

7. What worries me most about the credit crunch is that if one of
my checks is returned stamped 'insufficient funds' I won't know
whether that refers to mine or the bank's.

Ern, love #6.

All good ones Ern.

I liked No. 3. Reminds me of one pigeon who said
to another, "Have you seen the latest Holden".
The second pigeon replied, "Yeah, I spotted one this morning".
