On NPR this morning there was a report of how some mutual fund traders were able to buy stocks at the previous day's low price after knowing the price had risen after the close of market. One more black eye for U.S. business.

A cheer for Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri. Once the next in line to succed the Ayatollah Khomeini, Montazeri has recalled that the late Khomeini once said that people should make their own decisions. He believes that the matter of Iran's government should be put to a popular vote. Hopefuly such thinking could help Iran move forward with no need for outside intervention or violent political upheaval.

Good Luck, Son
My son's wedding is Saturday. M is my oldest. I have less in common with him than I do with some of my other children, but I love him the same and wish him the best. I'm also getting a great daughter in law.
