Hallowed Eve Eve

We have very few children in our neighborhood. Add to that our hectic schedule, and I find myself wondering if we should "do" Halloween. The vote was 2-1 for (I was the one against), so I bought Halloween candy for the trick or treaters. The problem is that we end up eating most of it! Large-caps had the trick today, as Wal Mart's numbers looked tepid. This didn't slow down technology, though. The NASDAQ gained over 1/2%. For a look at some of the scary things being brewed in the tech world, try this link http://money.cnn.com/popups/2006/fortune/scary_tech/index.html. The newspaper business is looking scary these days. Their numbers continue to drop, as more readers turn to the internet. Maybe, bloggers are the ghouls in this story!
