Nancy Lee is getting "aroused"

. . . . She wants Qualcomm!

cbs.marketwatch.com

Nancy Lee, a 32-year-old international business development manager at Dr. Koop.com, is planning a wedding in September. She and her fianc‚ registered for shares of telecom-equipment provider Qualcomm (QCOM: news, msgs), pharmaceutical company Andrx (ADRX: news, msgs) and Chinese-language Web portal Sina.com (SINA: news, msgs).

"My fianc‚ and I were the poor starving students where the toaster works, but only occasionally, so we don't have everything," she said. "But my wedding is actually going to be very small and I don't expect to get the toasters and blenders anyhow."

In fact, Lee and her fianc‚ have elected not to register anywhere else.

"I am not a real strong registry person," Lee said. "I will probably use this registration more as an online brokerage account, than actually getting a lot of gifts from friends and relatives."

For Lee, registering for shares of SINA.com -- a company that maintains four Chinese-language Web portals that serve Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Chinese speakers in North America -- struck a personal chord.

"My fianc‚ and I are both Chinese, so it's actually a way to be very personalized in terms of supporting something that we all believe in," Lee said.

Go Nancy! You can have SINA.com strike a personal chord for you. Qualcomm's recovery will strike a personal chord for me, baby. I have to thank Ruffian for finding this gem.

Just porchin'
