3. The S&P 500 surpassed its August 3 intraday high.
The futures markets are pricing in a 100% probability of a FOMC 25 bps increase at the December meeting, and an 80% probability of an increase at Greenspan's final meeting in January.

This will leave Ben Bernanke with a bit of a conundrum at the March meeting.

8. A small sell-off across the flattening Treasuries curve
Edited on Fri Nov-18-05 10:47 AM by swag
after a pretty bullish week. The yields have really been attracting the international flows, strengthening that proud ol' dollar's stand against the upstart Euro.

Might be time to take a direct flight to Frankfurt, rent a car, beat your chest, give a Tarzan yell, and throw some of those Big American Dollars around ol' Europe, scooping some of those sassy little Euro-Betties along the way.

27. Uhm you didn't miss much
RetroLounge posted some great poetry. Zuni is on a cannabalism kick. Progmom is playing it safe. We are debating whether we should embrace Zombie or burn him at the stake. MissHoneyChurch has a date! (In case you haven't heard.)

In other words... same old, same old.


Khash.
(nice to have you back.....)

29. Khashka is an unhappy camper
four crowns and a root canal.... not nice. All at once. And of course you can't complain - the bastard has both his hands in your mouth and is holding a drill. Time to be nice. (I tried to write a dental sadism porn story but just couldn't make it work.)

However niceness is only temporary... I immediately wanted to hurt someone else. But I'm a nice guy and secluded myself.


Still sore and whatever plastic/resin they use for temps tastes awful. Well, I shall survive. But if I get a little snarky, cut me some slack.

Khash.

31. Khashka , boy have I been there.
I had 6 crowns, and a root canal.

Did your dentist use that purple stuff for the mold, yuk.

All my old childhood fillings gave out at one time.

I am so glad all that work is over.

It does get better.

32. Oh yeah...

They said wait five minutes, but it set so hard they couldn't get the sombitch out!
I've got a lot of work to go. But my dentist is a sweet and gentle man,I like him..


So I got a lot of work to go, but I'm in good hands....

Khash.

33. I used Oil of Oregano to help with the root canal, got rid of the pain.
I just want to say Welcome to the Crown Club, just remember there will be certain foods you can't eat anymore.

I glad you have a gentle dentist, so is mine.

Take care, this dental work will end.

34. Really?
I got two crowns about 6 years ago and no one ever told me I had to stop eating anything. What am I supposed to avoid?

38. My dentist told me to avoid stuff like hard candy, certain kind of chips.
I will have to find the list, it was short but I didn't eat the stuff anyway.

I had a friend who had to have some grounds replaced, so I am following the dentist orders on this.

Popcorn was on the list, hard nuts, things like that.

This may have just been my Dentist, but I am really careful of what I eat now. I just don't want another root canal, didn't hurt but one was enough.
