Good News!


Each Friday, my broker gives us a little "weekend quote" and if pertinent, some market information. As we remember 9/11, I thought it was appropriate to share his weekly quote with all of you. Heroes are among us and good news is out there. Enjoy Dan's comments, and in his familiar words..."Make it a great weekend!!"

"Heroes may not be braver than the average person, they're just braver five minutes longer than the average person."

Biztimes: Wisconsin unemployment claims fall again. Consumer Confidence Jumps

Consumer confidence jumped to a reading of 70.2 in September, the highest since June, from 65.7 in August. This was above the economists expectation of 67.3.

Make it a great weekend!

Pro Health Nurse on Line Calls it Quits

The Biz Journal reports on Oconomowoc's Pro Health service.
Sorry to see the nurse on line service leave. As a mother, I have used it many times over the years. I'm assured that local health care is still on the cutting edge, and that new improved services will continue to come our way.
