Howdy, howdy,

Stocks like KTEL bring back memories or RMBS(mentioned), IOM, CFON, and probably many more I can't remember. I watch them and tell myself they can't go any higher and they do. Then I think of something my broker once told me, "Nobody wants to be the last fool to jump in". Where is the median? You know some people must feel about right now with a stock like KTEL that they're in one of those boxes one can win time in to grab as much cash as they can before the buzzer. I was wondering why some of the other stocks similar to KTEL aren't rocketing or the reverse, will they soon?

Reunion: I went to the last one. They (the officers of the senior class) set up the social hour in a bar. This rather offended me. Some people don't drink and are put in a position where they may feel uncomfortable in that type of setting. Also, there was a fee to cover expenses (food, band, place to meet) and on top of that an additional charge for a booklet which catalogued what the other classmates had been doing. I highly suspect that somebody associated with the class took the opportunity to pocket a little cash for their supposed genius. Then, it was just like in highschool, cliquish. But the thing which offended me most was that others from other classes showed up too and essentially enjoyed everything we did except the dinner. (I've worked in restaurants enough to know that a 3 - 4oz fillet mignot, baked potatoe, and vegatable doesn't cost that much, food cost wise). What do you want to bet the other classes didn't pay nearly what we did to come and socialize and/or party. No, I think I'll pass this one up. Besides, 2 close (mostly) friends will be coming a week later and I'd much rather spend the time with people I want to see.

Sorry for the rant.

So, have you had a good weekend? <ggg>

Not been playing chess. The last game tuckered me out.

TXB closed up a 1/16th. Better than nothing.

Later,

Mike
