Yaacov. My wife is wondering about this EU also. And she also used to fume about the traffic on the highways in Germany when we went over there because the other EU countries would come through there in order not to have to pay the higher toll fees elsewhere. gg. I am really wondering myself how all this will be working. BTW. I saw this guy on TV yesterday, I think he was an Eastern German and not a Western German, and he said he wished the Wall was up again. Can you believe that? Maybe the good life doesn't look so interesting to him anymore. Remember when we were discussing that you had to work in the former West Germany? gg. Those guys in the former East Germany may not be used to that yet. You are right, not only may it take another 50 years for the new generation in Germany to grow up and that may hold true for the EU also. It takes more than 1 horse to pull a heavy carriage. The UPS deal is coming out tomorrow. Sheesh. They talked so much about it that I thought it was today. I finally got into an IPO in the beginning on my own. CHRT, a Paul Allen IPO, was around 21 when I got in this morning. I guess it was easier to get this IPO at a reasonable price. There was no Dot com attached to it and they did come out with lots of shares. Hm. But, what I liked is that Paul Allen bought around 700 mill. shares in the open market himself. So, I thought I would try. Nice quick 4 bucks on Msft. I am pl. with my purchase of QCOM the other day. Sure hope it holds up. Some kind of business this company has. Haven't heard a thing bad about Csco. They put some mulah out today to buy a company. Maybe that's holding it up. But we will not have to wait much longer. gg. Another 1 hour or so. And then there will be another important data coming out over here. This Mary Meeker talk may have upset the internets a bit today. AOL is mentioned favorably. There is also a tidbit about Italy. gg. cbs.marketwatch.com Sonny
