Well, uhm.  Stranger things have happened.

(What I've Been Doing The Past Weeks Part VI:

I'm working for a stock broker (!), and last week I dEpLoYeD the, uh,
"trading engine".  (That's what other firms call that thing.)  So I
had to spend a week at the stock exchange to see how things went.
(Ok.)  Being a back seat stock broker is kinda fun (Buy!  Buy!  Ooops,
too late.) but really boring.  I just can't seem to work up any
enthusiasm for, eh, (other people's) money.  I tried to view the
experience as an anthropology expedition -- you know, study the
natives and all of that, but they really aren't all that interesting.
Some dull, dull, dull "English" jargon (mainly limited to the word
"yes") and...  Sorry, I couldn't bring myself to pay attention to what
I was thinking, but I did notice something else about them that was
kinda interesting, but I forget.

Anyways.)
