That's alright..when women are depressed b/c of hard economic times..they buy more makeup. That's why I recommend stock in cosmetics. I'm not kidding on this one. If women stop buying lipstick then we seriously are headed for a depression....

Dunken Donuts, Campbell's, Budweiser, & the American Movie Company might be some other buys despite the stock market officially reaching bear market territory the other day.

Quote:
"Throughout most of the Depression, Americans went assiduously, devotedly, almost compulsively, to the movies…the movies offered a chance to escape the cold, the heat, and loneliness; they brought strangers together, rubbing elbows in the dark of movie palaces and fleapits, sharing in the one social event available to everyone."
