Okay folks, let's get some chatter going here. I bought a piece of the Saudi Prince's new pick and would like to share with others any thoughts and ideas as they might occur.

I'll start. About six months ago (when PHL was $22 or so) David Hasslehoff (sp?) from Bay Watch fame, came through my work place and was wearing a Planet Hollywood leather bomber jacket. I asked him about some cosmetic company that he was going to represent and he spoke about it briefly before pointing down to the Planet Hollywood logo on his jacket and exclaimed, pointedly, "this is the company I'd buy stock in!"

I rode it down to 18 and bailed. But I'm hoping the worst is over and am back in at $9. The Prince has been wrong a few times (EuroDisney, etc.), but David Hazzlehoff was very convincing. And the Prince has been real right a couple of times, CitiBank and AAPL for two.
