GOOD MORNING!!! I had a very interesting week. Last Monday I had laser eye surgery and literally have been blind all week. I guess I chose a great week to be incapacitated! This morning is the first day I have been able to use my eyes for 7 days. Even though I could hear CNBC drivel in the background, there were other concerns on my mind. Yea, I guess I didn't do so good last week in the market (understatement). However, I'm bettin' that I will make money again, will have great days, bad days, hopefully remember to take more profits more often, and eventually leave some prosperity to my future grand kids. I only have two questions. 1) Won't my quality holdings (JDSU, CXCO, HWP, TXN,etc.) be worth far more when I need them in 10 years than they are now? The other high flyers (RFMD, PMCS, MFNX. ZOMX, GMST) will probably recover within 3-6 months. The BDE's LPTHA's and PLCO's of the world will have to wait until the next speculative bubble, but most of us own free shares anyway. 2) Was it Martha & the Vandellas who wrote "No place to run, no place to hide"? Like you, I have a shopping list and am hoping to check it off this week. By the way, it's spring. How's the photography coming? Baton
