AAPL target just raised to $500 by Hudson Square Research. Eerily similar to the Qualcomm call back during the tech wreck when its target was raised from $700 to $1,000. It marked the top.

today's selection comes courtesy of my little sister's itunes. she has impeccable taste in music and it is certainly worth sharing. however, this is not the EDM you are looking for. rather an eclectic collection of bump. i did not include her favorite country songs. as far afield as this playlist is i thought that would be a bridge too far.

be as flamboyant and off color as suits your moores. i'd just like to impress upon you that this lil community of ours can only thrive if we live by the very basic and reasonable rules set forth by the founders, with anonymity as the central tennant. i haven't tried at all to track down who you are because it is utterly inconsequential to me. i only care that you and anyone else do not actively try to undermine the community we have here.

Bernanke Sees Case for `Further Action' With Too-Low Inflation

Would it be wrong of me to wish Benron would contract some horrible, free-of-pain-and-suffering yet totally and completely debillitating disease so that he can be stopped before he does even more damage to what little is left of this former free-market republic?
