If you hear from the companies, mike, i say most of the ceos are concerned about what is coming. Generally, that is true. If you get a slowdown, it doesnt usually happen precipitously.

Economist john silvia will be joining us to kick things off. First, lets get to the guys in new york. Joe, my heart is breaking. I was traveling yesterday and out last night. I missed all of the masters disaster, been reading about it this morning, checking this stuff out. 11 inches . Missing . Ernie ells. Becky, im telling you yes, not you. Right.

Someones going to go in from the mets and well see, but i thought it was a good idea to suspend his. You thought it was absolutely purposeful. It was. Everybody does that. It was important to break that double. It was a key time because
