Miss Cleo Should Have Seen It Coming...
Federal fraud fighters say Miss Cleo's psychic hot line should have seen it coming: a lawsuit accusing the service of rampant deception.

Describing the hot line as "permeated with fraud," the Federal Trade Commission said Thursday it wants to shut down Access Resource Services Inc. and Psychic Readers Network. The two companies in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., are behind the telephone psychic reading service that on television and the Internet promises insights into love and money. [IWon]

...one of of those laugh or cry situations. "Rampant deception"!! Dah!, but that's the whole point of this line of work. More proof that a fool and his money are too easily seperated...mj

continued...'Stock Stupidity'
...a friend emailed a comment about my "Tech Stock Stupidity" blog. It presents the rational perspective [as if rational can ever include the word jackass...]

"I can't even imagine sueing my stock broker! Sure, it would have been nice if he had said to sell it all, but that really wasn't his call, was it?

Jackasses, all of them."

I couldn't agree more...mj

...I wonder how this will look when they get to Paradise? I am sure that Allah [blessed is his name] will forgive them for this little transgression...mj
