HowDee Bill, missed my win-doe for my Yes Vote sorry Blue, but the last time I tried to speak into the monitor it was to test out that FunFone and the static was so uncomfortable with my hair stuck to the screen and all. Glad to see you around Techride, have been enjoying your writings for awhile. Good to know you like the style of Taking The Edge Off whether we make or lose our money around here - & more often than not we seem to make it - but hey no one wins 'em all, that's life. Laughing yakking whether Our Pet Stocks are rock and rolling to a Techstock '99 Rally or if they're Goin' Under That Limbo Bar like lately - yep that would be us. Blue, I think Bill's "take the edge off some of the stock picks" deserves addition to the Classics and the Jedisms. I was out on the water today, enjoying a Mothers Day dinner cruise around NY Harbor with my Daughter and Godmother and the orchid-wearing generationals aboard. Afterward, we took a long drive north along the Hudson with the windows open, in the opposite direction to Wall Street, enjoying the warm spring day. Real nice. Got nothing much to add to what's been said about Monica - missed SNL last night but typical of Our Tabloid Culture she was even on there anyway. Pondering her appearance could be a harbinger of some browserly feud epidemic on the horizon again... what with Netscape's customizing itself for New Wave mini-web-gizmos along with last week's fuss about who's in & who's out of the T/UMG/MSFT/AOL/CMCSK deal, mebbe. Watchin' that one close-like, holding shares. 909, Joan |
