Wait....a 1,000 ct discount for condoms!?!


That, my friends, is true optimism.


I remember my single days when I'd buy packs of multi-colored condoms thinking that what was left at the end of the year could be used as Christmas decorations.


sadly, some years were particularly festive....

Well technically loss in market capitalization is not really loss of money it just means the future value of their issued stock is that much less valuable to the holders.

And were those trips to space for the Senators round-trip? I bet you could send the entire Congress if you didn't need to worry about reentry.
