Good evening, Mike, Regarding RNWK, I'll give you three guesses and the first two don't count. <g> You're really trying to make me feel guilty aren't you. :-) I was in something else at the time, VIAN. I got in at 96, but got scared out when it was around 105 and dropped to 101. I watched for a couple of days hoping to jump back in, but was never able to catch it lower than my exit price. So then I came up with the bright idea to buy a stock which was going to split. Damn IR screwed up their news release and pushed the date back a week. To make a long story short, my latest "no brainer" stock play is turning into a "no gainer" and falling daily. I would mention it, but why encourage more short-selling. <gg> :-( Looks like I might be stuck in "investor" mode for awhile. <insert explicative here!!!> I did run across a stock which might appeal to value investors. The stock, FORTY, is selling at 15 earnings. Its had about a 15 point run since I started watching it. I'm not really sure why the run-up and it could fall back just as fast, really don't know. But it may be worth keeping an eye on for those who invest in such types of companies. Didn't surprise me when you spoke of getting the computers for the schools. Seems to me I remember you talking about the time you helped a group of people in some type of passing out of blankets to the homeless or some such thing a couple of years ago. You do something like that again, let me know via PM and I'll send a contribution to help out. Hopeless and Helpless are my personal themes when it comes to such types of charitable work. I would rather send a contribution to someone that I know is going to be using it to help others in a meaningful and concrete way. Whenever next time is.......
