First time I've ever gotten a letter in the mail that started "Dear Mets Fan:"

by **Bill McNeal** » Mon Mar 17, 2008 21:11:50

have you received letters under the door that start "dear mets fan"?

Now that you mention it, that qualifier was unnecessary.

The first paragraph:

Thank you for your support among the record 3.85 million Mets fans who came out to Shea Stadium in 2007. With the addition of two-time Cy Young Award Winner, Johan Santana, to the front of our pitching rotation that already features Pedro, El Duque, John Maine and Oliver Perez, an all-star lineup led by Carlos Beltran, Jose Reyes and David Wright, and a bullpen anchored by Billy Wagner, we look forward to a return to championship caliber excitement in 2008.

I really hate the word "among." It's on pretty nice paper though.

I'm on my way to 30th St. station to meet my boss, who is taking Amtrak down from NYC, for my annual performance evaluation. Should I be concerned that he chose to do this in a public place :?:

I don't think you want to use a glock for that type of job. A wheel gun is more reliable and you don't want to be in a position of trying to explain to a guy how you were just kidding if your weapon jams.

If you had 100,000 shares of Bears Stearns stock in February 2007, it was worth $17 million.

If you still had it today, it's worth $600,000.

Ouch

monday morning open... market cap was roughly 9.5 billion
by friday close... mkt cap = roughly 4 billion.

I wonder what it feels like to lose 5.5 billion dollars in 5 days

Was trading at $170 per share in February 2007. Opened around $5 this morning. 98% loss give or take.
