[06:06] {Threei} oh ese, I am quite happy with it
[06:06] {esemde} in the 18 years that i've been here Vad...my grass has never been this green in August
[06:07] {esemde} it is a beautiful place though....for sure
[06:07] {Threei} I know... but I have my previous living spot for comparizon still very fresh in my mind
[06:07] {Threei} and it's truly and totally miserble vs what we have here
[06:08] {esemde} definately lots more mosquitoes in manitoba
[06:08] {Threei} for one thing
[06:08] {dino} gm ese

[06:10] {dino} lend getting spanked, aquirer trying to void deal
[06:21] {cosmo} hmmm ... a green monday
[06:21] {cosmo} so far
[06:22] {Threei} with recent volatility it can change on a dime... but so far so good
[06:23] {esemde} can someone explain this subprime mortgage thing in a couple o sentences
[06:23] {DaveG} lenders giving loans to people who can't afford them
[06:24] {cosmo} subprime = the 'buzz word' for this time
[06:24] {Threei} and a lot of defaults looming
[06:24] {esemde} why is that creating such volitility in the market Dave?
[06:24] {esemde} just speculation re defaults
[06:24] {BillyD} actual defaults
[06:25] {cosmo} cheer leaders like cramer also
[06:25] {DaveG} because housing is an important econimic factor
[06:25] {DaveG} economic
[06:26] {cosmo} econemic?
[06:26] {DaveG} :)
[06:26] {esemde} and thats it.....just more market..speculation
[06:26] {esemde} is it for real down there?
[06:26] {BillyD} yes
[06:27] {BillyD} actual defaults taht are real losses for these lenders
[06:27] {cosmo} eck-amenic
[06:27] {esemde} things seem to be fine up here in Canada
[06:27] {dino} florida, california and nevada getting hit hard from what i read
[06:28] {BillyD} even AZ
[06:28] {esemde} then you guys should be able to pick up some realestate cheap
[06:28] {cosmo} in AZ?
[06:28] {dino} eventually
[06:28] {esemde} fire sale and all that
[06:28] {BillyD} yes

[06:34] {cosmo} k
[06:36] {Threei} 12.11 aggressive entry with 11.99 stop
[06:36] {cosmo} agree
[06:36] {Threei} big offer at .10 serves as indication
[06:37] {Threei} lost 12... no read for now
[06:37] {cosmo} needed to hold 12
[06:38] {Threei} GIGM aggressive entry here with tight stop under .10
