dear Diary: Friday 14 April 2000

Paine, Webber & and &, brokers to the Great American Dream: Good morning
sir, how can we help you?

Hiram J Peabody IV Junior: oh thank God, thank God, a broker a broker...I
keep hearing these voices
saying Sell Sell! FIRE! and I can't find my valium and the banks just rung
wanting an extra $10 million
margin on my EhologramMassage.com...

Paine, Webber &: EhologramMassage.com sir? I'm sorry I'm not familiar with
that one...

Hiram J Peabody IV Junior: you're not? I've bin eating sleeping and living
them the last 2 weeks
dammit, they're one of the 5,000 new IPO's on the Nasdaq in the last 2
months. Y'know they're
developing these blonde doll holograms that come outta ya PC at home and
lay you on the
floor and give you a personal massage....

Paine, Webber &; would you like to place a limit on that sir?

Hiram J Peabody IV Junior: Limit? Goddammit man, no limit just sell, sell,
a penny'll do....
no cancel that I'll give them anyway - somebody else probably needs them
more than I do.
       
Paine, Webber &: (faintly) very good sir, they're down from $9.00 to fifty
cents this morning...
I'll put them on without limit.

Hiram J Peabody IV Junior: wunnerfull wunnerfull....y'know somethimes I'm
sure I'm George Washington
and other mornings I wake up and know I'm Joe Kennedy......fades away and
line goes dead.
