Since you are a fan of fancy corporate accounting, perhaps you will enjoy the 9 quarters in a row of one-time restructuring changes Alcoa has posted.

Mr Slippery,

Thanks to this summer's heat, I plan to run naked through the streets screaming, "OMG! I swear I'll never pay this water bill again!"

Heck, some pf my neighbors might even believe me. Such is the power of the recurring one-time charge, lol. Sigh.

In all seriousness, I cringe at the thought of what my next water bill will be almost as much as I cringe at the thought of investing in companies with fancy accounting.
