Overall, we're coming in week after week for about five to six weeks of negative news. Everyone is being optimistic about any number that comes out, hoping that will be the catalyst to stem the downside. But that hasn't happened.

We wouldn't expect to get relief for the overall dry conditions for six to eight weeks.

The market is plagued by warnings. There have been over 500 negative preannouncements in the last four to five weeks.

Work - get paid; don't work - don't get paid. Everybody is on commission, ... Try not coming to work for six weeks. Work gets paid; don't work, don't get paid. When they earn those dollars, and when you're 4, and you clean up your room, it really means mom cleaned up the room and you did two toys. When you're 14, it means you cleaned up your room. But still, we got the money caused by work, and then, we have teachable moments on how to handle the money they earn.

He really has been coming along good the last couple weeks. We had that two week stretch off and I felt we had some good training in there.

Negative news travels & also sell ten times faster than positive news because,we live in a world that is negative oriented.
