BB and MG

were not msft, intc, csco all $1.29 pliers when they first came out.
surely they were not born gorillas, they became gorillas.
our goal is to find the plier that has the potential to turn into the all in one plier(can't think of the name of it ). the gorilla of pliers if you will.
and yes even gorillas have glitches and mr market puts them
on the 25-50% off sale rack. remember intc and it's pentium falw.
there will always be great opportunities to buy a gorilla,
the best being just before maturing into a gorilla, as soon as one becomes one or during a glitch induced sale.

as with everything in life, the timing is the tricky part, but studying the FM and this thread helps getting the timing right.

Bruce, I like your jack-hammer metaphor. But you won't find a jack-hammer mixed in with the $1.29 pliers.
