So with this initial post, a new era begins for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#3366ff;"&gt;B L O G G I N G&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who would have "thunk" I'd be trying my hand at this form of communications only just a few short years ago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So as we begin our journey,  here's todays closing prices:&lt;br /&gt;SP 500         1031&lt;br /&gt;DOW 30       9581&lt;br /&gt;NASDAQ       2028&lt;br /&gt;VIX                24.68&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5161552161590184568-912431210837134173?l=steve-schmidt.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steve-schmidt.blogspot.com/feeds/912431210837134173/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://steve-schmidt.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-first-blog.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5161552161590184568/posts/default/912431210837134173'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5161552161590184568/posts/default/912431210837134173'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steve-schmidt.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-first-blog.html' title='My First Blog'/><author><name>Steve Schmidt</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00948878862329084282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='20' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_gbNmMf0t3Yw/Spci9pwwW8I/AAAAAAAAABg/wiepl-VF0gg/S220/dollar_1427958c.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
