It's interesting, but I want to know what Wally is doing with his investments. He is the real wizard.

Every time I read and re-read that one, I laugh again! There are some real gems in there.

I wonder how many of these lines go over the heads of the readers? How many people would equate a 'squirrel sitting on a clown's shoulder' with the 'head and shoulder' pattern that the Elliot Wave Theory people talk about?
