DOW Jones to reach record high?
It looks like the Dow Jones Industrial Average is about to surpass the record levels it was reaching prior to September 11 2001. The Dow reached a high in May 2001, at 11,301. The highest closing figure of the Dow Jones was 11,722 in January 2000, right before the bursting of the dot com bubble.
Right after September 11 it plummeted to 8235, returning to an average of about 10,000 in the last few years. At close yesterday it reached 11,268.
Aine Chambers on Podge and Rodge
It finally happened, much to the delight of Damien no doubt.
Whoah
Someone loses the head…
Who’s going to pay for the air?
Bush breaks the law?
Not only did George Bush get a gift of an iPod from Bono, he apparently illegally rips CDs (or has someone do it for him)

Suspect blogged about cannibalism
If he is guilty of what he is alleged to have done, his blog might be useful to those interested in the mind of a very very sick individual.
I guess his first entry in September 2002 might betray a certain fondness for violence.
They say there’s a good chance of another attack of some kind tomorrow, (or today if you want to be really anal about it). Now I’m not hoping they attack, I’m not going that far, but if they do, let’s just say I’ll be watching the news coverage of it for the entertainment value.
Red FM blogs
It went below my ‘blogdar’ as it were, but Red FM here in Cork seems to have an inordinate amount of staff blogging. Not alone that but it appears they are being actively encouraged to do so by management. Just a shame almost none of them have blogrolls to let the rest of us know they exist!
Philip Bourke, Martina, Viv Crowley, Victor Barry, Steven Cooper , KC, Stevie G– welcome to the blogosphere…and there’s a whole lot more bloggers here in Cork now! 🙂
Happy Easter!
To celebrate Easter have a listen to Bill Hicks’ take on Easter and Gideons…
Not work safe either!
Some Bill Hicks (not work safe)
Oh they called back
As happens with radio shows, they called back because of a cancellation. So I was on for a good 10 minutes. Good questions, I hope I sounded ok.
