Hello World Do you have any idea what it is like to take a real vacation---to the Swiss Alps, Italy, & France--- and then try to keep up with you guys!!!! Its like following a soap opera transmitted by aliens from the other side of the Galaxy intermittently through the static. A fragment here and a fragment there of insight about.... I spent part of my time using a computer in a casino to catch the earnings posts. Boy did those people think I was nuts. Don't you Americans EVER have any fun. Always business.... (Incidently watch the German mark if you watch the Fed) ==================================== I have tried reading the last 1000 posts. VK appears to have posted an awful lot of noise. One day he's buying this and the next day selling that. One day Novell will go to 15 next day to 8 1/2. I thought he was taking some medication. I'm afraid I agree with Scott that the buyout rumors were also worth skipping. After you've seen a movie a certain number of times..... 200 repeats.....well you understand..... The other big time waster was the endless discussions of insider trading. (Steve Fancy's list is the definitive answer to all questions on the subject.) We know the insiders are not buying the stock and for obvious reasons, so what is there of significance to talk about? Hell it sounds like some liberal fantasy about how you should do good for the poor stockholder bastards and sacrifice your shirt. Last time I checked falling on one's sword hurt!!! =================================== I found 6 posts worth reading of the thousand (and this one you are reading didn't make the list)--- 17311 (Your JAVA post), Steve's list of insider selling, Eric's find of a trader tracker, Earl's 16846, Salah's 16809, and Jim's 16799. The later were about earnings for Q3 and Q4. =================================== Some differences between France and the US for those that care. I went to an American movie in a small town on Lake Geneva. The movie ended after only 1 1/2 hours. They had cut 3/4 of an hour of the movie out. The part they cut consisted of all of the blood and gore and bone crushing violence. I watched a French movie with Jean Moreau and Gerald Depardieu on TV on Sunday in prime time. In this 25 year old movie classic, Dep plays a French hippie thief outlaw. His crime is mostly seducing women of all ages on the spur of the moment and petty theft (especially of autos that he then has to figure out how to make run while the cops are coming). This movie never made any sense to me when I saw it in New York. Why because it features full frontal nudity and simulated sexual intercourse complete with Gerald's commentary on how well his hippie buddy is performing in trying to give their girlfriend an orgasm (which they never succeed in doing...well I better not give the movie away). Naturally in the US all of this was cut out. No wonder the movie didn't make any sense in New York! ===================================== Take that as a commentary on all of us trying to figure out Novell. I no longer own this stock. ===================================== Believe me, there is more to life, especially when you have the money to enjoy it, than anticipating the moves in John Young's boudoir.
