So.

Does anybody wanna discuss unemployment?

Oh, in a bit. I just want to tweak Unwrapped and his 'booming economy' claim. Looks like the DOW is going down and about to cross the 11,000 mark, yet again.

08/09/06

The Dow Jones industrial average (down 104.45 to 11,069.14, Charts) tumbled 0.9 percent and the broader Standard & Poor's 500 (down 6.01 to 1,265.47, Charts) index lost 0.4 percent, according to early tallies.

The tech-fueled Nasdaq composite (down 1.77 to 2,059.08, Charts), which had surged as much as 1.8 percent earlier, finished the session flat.
