Hey Jed, what are you gonna do? Is it "then one day he was shootin' at some food"..or is it "when out from the ground came a-bubblin' crude"????!!!! Here's my Appalachian Holler on it - "Best take the food home for supper but chip a mark by that oil patch first before covering it with some brush".
Reading the Go2net thread, there's many opinions - what do you think? So Paul Allen offers execs and investors $90 a share for gnet and on that day it goes to $102! Do you think "Tie Me Kangaroo Down" time is about to come, if a Big like this wants the shares? Yeah it sure is good news about the go2net/cable/broadband alliance with the co-founder of Microsoft who now does his own thing paulallen.com but Great Caesar's Ghost is that tender offer for a Majority good news or bad? If the execs were to give it to him for $90 a share today and make it fully worthwhile for themselves there's gonna have to be either a devaluation for bear options and/or yet another 909 announcement coming up soon, correctamundo? Think we'll maybe see the whole 9 yards? Only thing I'm worried about is, if this deal is perceived by wall street as another lcos-type offer... which is what I am sure the bears will be sure to say.... 'twill be fizzle time for the share price no matter what The Truth Is Out There Yet To Come really is.
What I might oughta do...
Another 909er on the way is what might be coming, along with a pack running to "Take 'em down", means that as of now I'm either holding
a few too many shares for comfort
shares at such a high price - this is almost doubler in less than a month since the split. I think I'll watch it close for a high, and sell some, just in case. Now Paul Allen from what I hear has a very good reputation of letting the present management continue running a good operation, that's good news. Also good news is one posters take on the gnet tread that what this means is that $90 is now the bottom acceptable price for the stock according to a big majority owner, in view of the tender offer. I guess I'll wait and see for a small spell. How about you? If this thing is on the block, well let's face it, we've seen what usually happens when chum's in the water.
Could This Be The 1 after 909 play right on the Senate Steps, our gnet and the co-founder of microsoft. And Who's Who Onstage?!!
