Breaking News - Bewildered Armchair Traders

Ha! DOW is up 153 points. Even though we opened down 1%, it didn't matter, the credit markets were indicating bullishness. The fixed income market has been telling you all sorts of things. Hedgefunds want to buy toxic assets. The government will do anything and everything it can to prevent the Great Depression 2. It's important to remember to not focus on this quarter (it's going to shit the bed), the market is looking out six months from now.

I think there are too many regular folks out there listening to the doom-wishing, coffin-humping, bear-loving fools. Don't let yourself get too negative. It's way too late for that. The horse left the barn. Or should I say bull?

Folks, this is Johnny Newsmaker signing off. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming… "Rags to Riches to Rockets" only on Ranting-TV…

Guest Columnist - Heaven with Dr. Mike

I'm a believer! I believe that mice and men come from the same place. Mice and men have the same genes, but they are turned on and off in different sequences. For example, a fish develops fins instead of arms because of inherited time-frames for gene activities. The same gene that develops fins for fish is the same gene that develops arms for humans. All creatures are unique, but they come from the same source.

If you are lucky enough to be human, then you will go to heaven. Upon research of various interweb sites, I have determined that mice, rats, and Tasmanian devils go to hell! Actually I think that all animals, that aren't human, just rot away after death.

To form this drastic opinion, I have tuned in to many cable channels that prove the existence of dead people communicating with the living. I have never, ever witnessed a ghostly tape-worm attempting to burrow into the lower bowels of an unsuspecting human. Therefore, because of no proof of the existence of tape-worm ghosts, I am convinced that humans are the only living creatures that exist beyond death.

Or, maybe cute puppies and, perhaps, chimpanzees go to heaven or hell or whatever! Hey, as long as a human relates to you (as an inferior living being) as a reasonably close to human specimen, then you will probably have an afterlife. If an animal is intelligent, then I believe he may have heaven in his future.

I have developed a cut-off line for the intelligence-to-heaven formula. Luckily for some salamanders, they have taken the place of many human-kind in heaven!
