4. I think that the Puts were short-sighted
It is going to pop in the last week of October.

5. It will be at 8pm on a weekday evening Oct 17-21.
Whatever night the TV primetime lineup is the weakest guaranteeing Bush the biggest audience with the Murcan public. I wonder if we'll ever see pictures of him getting into makeup? Watch for lots of flags in the Oval Orafice - I mean Office.

7. I heard there is a legitimate place like a mercantile exchange where
you can buy options toward a world event happening and bet on or against it.
