You're a 711 owner, and tw comes in. Wearing an overcoat and a stetson hat, no doubt. He purchases a coffee, and says "how bout that stock market". Unsuspecting, and unaware of what you are about to do, you say, " yeah, my mutual fund is doing great."

I think you all know what happens next ....~shudder~

45 minutes later, as you dab the blood from your ears, he finally leaves, and gets into his 95 Ford Taurus, and drives off into the rainy Monday morning. It's not going to be a good week.
