Neat! I recognized some of those pieces, and I actually took a bunch of pictures at that chick's booth at the MLP convention in June. I like the Halloween ones. The ghosts are funny.

Collectors have serious issues with Pinkie Pie.
 
That is my favorite one! And, Prof's favorite one too!



But, more importantly, I think they have issues all around, not just with Pinkie Pie.

What History Tells Us About the Market

The breathtakingly volatile week has left investors numb. A close study of the Great Crash, and the decades that followed, offers some unnerving context, and some reasons for optimism.

Quote about the Great Depression in the 1930's:

"Banks had become so illiquid, and depositors so terrified of losing their money, that check-writing ground to a halt. Most transactions that did occur were carried out in cash. Alexander Dana Noyes, financial columnist at the New York Times, had invested in a pool of residential mortgages. He was repeatedly accosted by the ringing of his doorbell; those homeowners who could still keep their mortgages current came to Mr. Noyes to service their debts with payments of cold hard cash."

Did you know that the moon rotates and revolves at the same rate? Every Earth-based picture, drawing, painting, etc from Galileo's day until the present is of the exact same image. Earth-bound eyes can never see the dark side of the moon, which isn't always dark, just hidden from Earth.
