Hey Robbie !! Jimbo has recently been loading his boat with BEAR shares !!!! The Vermont Teddy Bear company....check 'em out at vtbear.com ( or vermontteddybear.com if you prefer ) ... Their Yahoo shopping deal drove the stock from 1 to 5 back in November...they haven't released any news since, but with Valentines Day coming up soon, that should change... My favorite part of the story from an Internet play is their FREE on-line greeting cards at virtualbeargram.com This is similar to bluemountainarts.com which was recently measured to be the MOST POPULAR site on the Internet (at least over December time frame) judged by the number of unique visitors...They should get some publicity out of their FREE virtual bear-grams around Valentines....not to mention their earnings release coming up in a few weeks should show good numbers for the Nov/Dec holiday time-frame (which was also the time during which they got a lot of free publicity from the Yahoo deal)... It's a bit speculative, but selling at less than 1x earnings...closed their retail stores recently to concentrate on Internet sales (in addition to telephone and catalog sales)... GO BEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jimbo.
