Brian - thanks for putting on the contest - it spurred some good blogs - and also for your links to the other articles. Since I have a subscription to Forbes through December, I'd like to pass it on to another of the entrants - whichever one contacts you first asking for it. I'll keep the kudos, though!

Renee and Kaushik - thanks for the congratulations.

I think the NEW/FMT news will be drivers on Monday, the FDIC just sent a rather large warning shot across the bow of any FDIC institution (CFC, WAMU, etc) that it isn't going to let them risk federally insured deposits on risky loans.

Brian, I am so impressed that you got Greg Swann to submit a post here! I do notice he posted it only to the group, so as not to take any points for it. And I figure that's because in Greg's universe, receiving points would take away from the perfection and purity of the thing. <s>

Ya gotta admire the guy! He has elevated being an "insufferable bastard" (his own words at times) to an art form. And just so's anyone is confused as to where I stand: Greg is one of my favorite bloggers.

PS Yes, I know this post is from 6 months or so ago. For some reason, when I clicked Brian's face this morning, this post displayed at the top. Wierd! So I figured I'd comment, anyway. No one else will probably see it!

A carnival is an apropos theme sometimes! Sometimes I'm the monkey in tights, sometimes the barker and sometimes I clean up the cages.
