Barry:
ROFLMAO.
Thanks for the url on this one, which should be saved as a "classic".
Looks like some of the more exuberant types have great expectations for IBM's numbers tonight. I wonder if Louis will deliver anything more than the normal "flat revenues, lower tax rates, marginally higher earnings, big stock buy-backs, bloated add-on debt and much lower shareholder equity"? If he does, it will be interesting to see where it is coming from. More "service" contracts to replace that higher margin software, hardware, maintenance revenues of old? (g)

Can't find any direct cause for today's run-up. Will spend some more time looking. Trigger finger is quivering, but patience is a virtue (g)
Best, Earlie
