Okay, now that I got that off my chest, let us talk about where to go from here. Mr. Conway!!!!! Since you think Joe Taxpayer should bail out the financial industry (or at least some of the big players in that industry), what are YOU going to do to protect our investment???

Will let the day go by.

When he has new visitors
Or upon receiving food

With this furry instrument
you can gage his mood

I think the frequency of the wag
