Dennis, my favorite was the 180 Bob did on his previous projections.
>> In an August Business Journal interview, Gruder addressed the
criticism, saying he's been misquoted on his predictions. "I was quoted as saying we'd make a profit by fourth quarter(1996) and what I said is that I would hope we'd make a profit by fourth quarter. Well, we are making a profit now. Two quarters late isn't bad." <<
so you see Dennis, it was all a big mistake <gg>
He didn't really say ALYD would make a profit, he said he HOPED they would make a profit. Oh, that explains everything.......
Do you know if he plans to run for public office anytime soon? <gg>
Btw - "slick" Bob says that " Well, we are making a profit now. Two quarters late isn't bad."
hmmm, I may be mistaken, but I don't think ALYD has made a profit in Q1, Q2 or Q3 of 1997.
If he first said they would be ...oh sorry.. if he first said that he "hoped" they would be profitable by Q4 of 1996, then wouldn't two Q's later be Q2 of 1997 ?
Oh, that's right he really didn't mean to say 2Q's later, he really meant to say 4Q's later.
those damn reporters, they just keep misquoting good old Bob. |
