Wow, well it was a bloody day in the market. But hey, the VO made money so everyone here is happy!

I have to say that being removed from the market, even if during the slower holiday season, kind of sucks. You may have noticed I'm posting less. It's just hard for me to sit and watch stocks and actively monitor the market if I'm not involved.

I watched the news about Bhutto this morning with some unrest. The world doesn't need to get more "extreme." When the moderates are targeted and killed though, extremists fill the vacuum. The assassination of Bhutto is bad news for the world.

Anyway, volume is still very light. We traded under a billion shares again. At least the VIX saw a little pop, up over 20 again.

See you tomorrow. Oh, and don't forget to go give me a nice vote over at the Peanut Gallery.
