yup... still got my Apple stock from the LAST bubble-- glad I didn't dump it like my other tech stocks. Watching it go up and gettin' nervous-- I'm afraid it's going to tank when they find out that iPhones cause cancer.
Actually, after you watch this video, check out the next one in line-- Water bubble in space. Best special effect ever, and all it took was some water! And a space station.

lol. i'm easily bought by beer and pizza too. loved that they used the Maltese Falcon as an example of a yacht. how appropriate.
One thing to keep in mind about the $15 billion facebook "valuation" is that Microsoft is receiving a contract to provide ads on the network's international operations. As such, you apply the payment to the percentage of the company it received to get to a total facebook valuation. For instance: if Ze sold an ad for $100 on this page and gave the advertiser (because he's feeling nice) one one trillionth of the site's equity, that doesn't make the page worth $100 trillion.
Sorry, pet peeve.
