Blackstone going public??
Anyone watching CNBC talk about this? Seems like a long shot, but if/when one of these big guns does go public, look out, I bet they would open at $200per share, some crazy number. Im sure the IPO of Fortress opened a lot of eyes to private equity guys.

Major pet food recall; check the list if you own a dog or a cat.
Menu foods has announced a huge recall of multiple pet food brands that has killed some pets already.
If you can trade the TSX, the ticker is MEW, do us pet lovers a favor and short them into bankruptcy.

Linux?
Anyone using Linux know where I can find a list of what programs will and won't work, or I guess more appropriately, what Linux needs in order to run them, since last I heard they were making in-roads into making everything work for it... Was thinking about changing over, finally had enough of WinXP trying to steal control of my computer, but wanted to verify all my software is functional first..

Capitol Gains Tax & us
Just my thoughts
Has anyone else thought about the debt we have from this War? Who and how will this Debt be paid? My guess is Capitol gains first and the rest of the Tax breaks we have enjoyed for the past few years will dissapeer! Just my thoughts what are yours? Somebody will have to pay the U.S.A.s debt. Will it be you? Or our children?
Current Tax breaks expire in 2008.

Making Money - This Really Works Keep in mind that everything
stated below is 100% legal as stated by the U.S. Post Office
(1-800-725-2161). A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups,
just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said
you could make thousands of pounds within weeks with only an initial
investment of $6.00! : Anyway it said that you have to send $1.00 to each
of the following names on the list, stated at the end of this article using
Paypal. You don?t have to be preferred or verified to transfer and receive
money, so you lose no money through transfers. Now honestly, what is six
pounds, especially out of a Paypal account. In exchange you will make
thousands in the first few months. You then place your own name and
email address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at
least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands of newsgroups). No catch, that
was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about
trying it.
