>We are only in the first inning of a ten inning

You sound like every analyst or pimp i've ever heard talking about internut stocks. It's always a friggin sports analogy, following the pattern of "first section of the smallest time measurement in that sport"

I've heard 1st yard of a marathon, 1st basket of an NBA game, etc etc.. They're making the mistake of using analogies that refer to the INTERNET, not INTERNET STOCKS.

Internet STOCKS are about 3 seconds away from the overtime buzzer ringing.

>>Think top line not bottom line. <<
That's very hard for a guy that's been a bottom line kinda guy, and was able to take a 5 year sabbatical, because of it.
If you and I had worked together, we would surely have had our differences.
You want to build market share @ any cost, and I have to keep the bank from foreclosing. Now if I had $billions of the publics $money I wouldn't worry so much. But sooner or later I'd be concerned, I guess that's a big difference between Bezo, you, and I.

It's golf time.:-)
