Got hooked on that "How Do They Do That?" show. Very cool. The beer one was cool. Which reminds me of an investment story going around:

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, you would have received $214.00.

And then of course there is the punch line:

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.
