Today saw the third consecutive higher close for the market. For this to continue support needs to hold at 1 of 2 places, either at/around 1351 or at today’s low. If one of these levels holds a continuation up towards the 1398-1400 area is likely.

OK, I'm not a big baseball fan these days, but being a former OSU student this is even bigger than my "whoohoo" I gave them last year... Only three teams have repeated since the 60's. Congrats. I do feel sorry for UNC though, they lost the series twice in a row now, it's an accomplishment just getting there, not to mention twice.So I gotta admit, I knew the Beavs were to at least the quarterfinals and didn't realize they'd made it to the finals, but yesterday Pat and I ran errands, heard a radio commercial for Don the Beachcombers restaurant and Mai Tai Tiki Bar... and being the Tiki fans that we are we had to go check it out. Anyway, the first game of the series was on at the time so we got to watch it and had to watch the last innings of tonight's game. BTW... Beachcombers... big thumbs up for the visual improvements in the bar and diner. We'll have to do dinner there (I've heard lots of positive on the forums at Konaweb) but the bar was opened up, it used to be sort of scree

Although Jarda has been Daddy Warbucks to our little group - me, Miro and his bf Honza, sometimes Radine, another station balcony-dweller - paying for 3 nights of beer-drenched revelry (but, oh goddess, the bad Czech pop on the jukebox!) with his biznis money, last night it was my turn to treat, thanks to some money sent by Craig. And since Lee, the wonderful theatre queen from Manchester who introduced me recently to my newest hero, Elaine Stritch (I dunno, maybe it's because she's a talented drunk?) is in town, he's been partying with us as well; and partying privately with Jarda, too. "Nice sexy boy." Yup, that's Jarda. Generous and kind, too: he found out a couple days ago that I hadn't eaten for almost 36 hours (Chris and Mike are both out of the city and there are simply no tourists; so there's little income) and immediately marched down to the Pont and bought some rohliku and spreadable cheese. Then Techno Honza bought me a hot tea and brought it to me while I was eating.
