Saw this on CNN today:

What is naked short selling?



Note the URL. Playful web administrator, or does WTF have some other meaning?

I think it has something to do with being a "grower" and not a "shower".

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

It wasn’t till I’d read the thread, clicked the link, and read the first two thirds of the first paragraph that I realised that it said “naked short selling”. I kept wondering what the hell naked short telling had to do with Wall Street—sounded more like something off-Broadway to me. Puppetry of the Penis II or something.

Dude!
Been inclined to wander... off the beaten track.
That's where there's thunder... and the wind shouts back.
