CHEERS!
If you had purchased $1,000. of Delta Air Lines stock one year ago you would have $49.00 left.
With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
But, if you had purchased $1,000. worth of beer one year ago, drank all of the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling REFUND, you would have $214.00 cash.
Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.
Its called the 401-Keg
A recent study found the average American walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study found Americans drink, on the average, 22 gallon s of alcohol a year. That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

900 miles a year???? something sounds wrong with that statistic.
Correct me if I"m wrong, but there are 365 days in a year. 900 divided by 365 is about 2.5. So you're saying that Americans walk, on average, 2.5 miles a day? hmmmm. Someone must be doing one h*ll of a lot of walking, to make up for the people who are getting no exercise whatever.
