Bass fishermen make "Love List" for Bloomberg in the morning---FICTION

Well it was a hung over morning this Monday at Betty Lou's coffee shop in Normal Minnesota---where the baby boomer bass fishermen meet each morning to swap fish stories, drink extra strong coffee with free whipped cream, and listen to Bloomberg in the morning. One by one the guys were nostalgic about the classic morning broadcast and made a list they pinned on the bulletin board of the things they liked best. Here is that Love List: *. I love you bloomberg the way you allways start off each broadcast whether in war or peace, boom or crash with the latest 1/32 movement in the 10 year treasury. I also love the tinge of excitement when you hint that the current uptick might be the move that crashes the market and makes millionaires of short sellers. *. I love you bloomberg the way you always intervierw a lone disgruntled Fed member that has had his ego destroyed when his advice to raise the fed funds rate by 50 basis points was disregarded. * I love you Bloomberg the way when there is a Federal Reserve announcement you already have a long list of experts in the "dot plot" who can dissect where the statement of the Chairman could have been more effective---maybe by making it a bit shorter and making the pronouncements bolder to provoke more press action. *. I love you Bloomberg the way you always find some female investment professional that professes her alarm over the uptick in ten year rate---its like after a night of action in New York pubs with all the Jersey guys she now is afraid of a treasury rate bounce. Funny. *. I love you Bloomberg the way when the listener is just itching for a tradable stock idea you get chatty with guests about baseball. Nice.
