Winston,

I like your daily hot sheet and the links too! You've provided great information, short and sweet with in depth information for those who want to know more.

I love your efficiency. It's very effective! I think it's what drives people to succeed and I know you're very successful at what you do.

Winston - I like that you added the links to the stories. I'm going to the Fannie/Freddie link as soon as I leave this comment. Great job.

Okay, I just had to stop back - WHAT? I couldn't believe the comments on the link for the FNMA/FHLMC refusing to do a principal reduction. KEEP PEOPLE IN THEIR HOMES!!! That's NUTS. Sorry, I just had to rant.
