If you had purchased $1,000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth
$49.00. With Enron, you would have had $16.50 left of the original $1,000.00.
With WorldCom, you would have had less than $5.00 left.
If you had purchased $1,000 of Delta Air Lines stock, you would have $49.00 left.
But, if you had purchased $1,000.00 worth of wine one year ago, drank all the wine,

Reports have recently been circulating that Vancouver is going to receive the most snow it has seen in 40 years! What that means:

- The city will most likely be in a state of shock for clearing roads (don’t rely on transit)
- People at work marveling at snow falling from the window will be exponentially higher
- More snow days! Hopefully making up for last years whopping number (zero…)
- A white Christmas!
Let it Snow!
