Thanks Lance,
LOL, that stuffy professor image is perfect! I got out of BRCM ages ago. I just couldn't handle the incessant dilution that Nicholas was foisting on the dufus investor. This one was always the weak sister among AMCC, JDSU, Q*, SDLI and the other usual suspects. Nicholas never ever considered aligning the companies interests with those of the damn fools who "invested" in it. In that regard I have tremendously more respect for Dave Rickey that for the Henrys.
Welcome to the sour grapes thread!
Forbes magazine this week is featuring '99 Zinfandels. According to sommeliers in the know, this is the best vintage in 10 years. Put some away for day when we decide to get back into BRCM at 8 and clean up when the next 'greater fool' wave falls off the turnip truck and discovers the market. We know they were all born at night, and we hope it was last night. <w>
Mahogany, yup... did I tell you about the time I rebuilt the Governor's mansion library in Juneau, AK fitted with Honduras Mahogany? No? Well, maybe next time.....
Cheers, and don't accept any sour grapa, wooden nickels or Nicholas shares, Ray :) |
