Franq, JMHO but I don't see any real need for a pissing match with Gordon. I mean, so he's not a fan of the game--big whoop. The guy seems to be a knowledgeable but mildly dissenting voice on Cree, and that can and should stimulate good discussion rather than querulousness. Curmudgeons shouldn't be so sensitive! :0)

And isn't the LoF thing getting a bit old?

Now, the real thing to be curmudgeonly about is Merlin's lukewarm review of our little Gem's earnings report. Don't really know what to think here--long-term story still looks very good, clearly, but the short-term might be less than pretty.

harrumph.

Why did we have to have such a good December? all it did was spoil us and set us up for a hangover in January, leading to crotchety curmudgeonliness all around... :0(

Hi FranQ!

but I saw a Mercedes SUV today, and it's a chick's car.

ROFLMAO!

My Wife has one. She decked it out with running boards, grill guard, fog lights, The Works. It actually makes it look meaner. A couple of weeks ago I asked my son (15 years old) to go to the store for me. His car was blocked in the garage so I told him to take his mom's. He Hemmed and Hawed (sp?) about it for a while and finally said he didn't want to be seen driving a ladies car! (He agrees with your assesment) <g>

PS - I hope you enjoy your new 4X4. I drive it's big brother the Lincoln Navigator and really like it. Now thats a MAN's 4X4! <gg>

PPS - Don't let LOF get on your nerves. He has been on quite a few nerves as of late from the sounds of it.

I'll bet Sandy drives that Mercedes SUV and lusts for an BMW X3. What a pussy!
