Hi Keith, congratulations on your SELL, which is a most excellent way to start off the New Year. Yes, we know a little bit about Tornado's up here...in event of a Tornado, lie low, wear a helmet if possible, and remember to check your insurance coverage :-) Regards, Jack

Hi Keith, I'm a little bit upset. Just as I closed the deal to sell about 5% of my VTSS to an eager buyer for $55-7/8, I log on to brag and see that you've stolen my thunder (no reference to the tornados!)! Well, I also sold about 5% of my CHIR for $43-11/16, SO THERE!!! Yes, nice to have a bit of business on the first trading day of the first month of the first year of the first century of the New Millennium! It's also nice to have Newport working just fine! Thanks to Bob! It was a bit of a grind, but the results are in. My one account that I've not tampered with since 1990 turned in a whopping 84.4% 1999 gain! My IRA coasted home for a 34% improvement in value - not bad for a boring mutual fund account. My grand total return after paying Uncle Sam (for 1998), living expenses, tuition, cars, vet bills, furniture, clothes (from Fleet & Farm), gifts to charities and everything else I can't remember for 1999 turned out to be a 54.3% gain. That makes for a Happy New Year at the Veale's Intl. Equity Warehouse!! Please take a look at the results at execpc.com Some of the individual stock performances for 1999 were really something to see. The individual stocks, etc, fell into four categories; income producing (mostly losses) new investments (small gains or losses), energy related holdings (small gains) and long term holdings (largest gains). All in all AIM's done well by me again in 1999. Best regards, Tom
