Hedged Bets in the Shape of the Seven Dwarfs

I haven't blogged for a little while. I plan to make a more comprehensive post later, but right now I want to lament the fact that (I thought I was being savvy) I dumped 75% of my AMD stock a couple of days ago. Today it shot up 6 percent. Oh well. I'm sure that it can't sustain this meteoric rise much longer, and I'll come out ahead in the long run. Besides, that's why I left 25% of my stock alone. :-)

To clarify, Mr. Isaacson did not write the book to which I've linked. The joke is that Mr. Isaacson was the origin of the whole "Italian Ghetto" thing, and I thought it was kind of funny that somebody had written a book with "Italian Ghetto" in the title. I've searched Amazon.com several times for Mr. Isaacson's "published book" to no avail. I just had a thought...I should check the records at the Copyright Office. They're accessible online and should contain the book, if it does indeed exist.
