Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Or maybe just the bit bucket was full....

any bets on hitting or beating the 777 drop from last week? The trading floor support guys are going nuts since they used to be on the floor.

A lot of international markets are taking huge hits.
I think by next week all the banks in the world will be owned by mainland China.
