Greg,

You seemed to be a little down on the Q today.

You should have known better. Numbers looked great. Future guidance looks strong.

I dont know where we go short term, but Q never looked betterlong term to me then it does right now.

From the RICK board on Yahoo:

A true story
by: thahangmanscoming 4/18/00 1:23 pm
Msg: 26798 of 26811
A Dad walks into a market followed by his ten-year-old son. The kid is
spinning a 25-cent piece in the air and catching it between his teeth.

As they walk through the market, someone bumps into the boy at just the
wrong moment, and the coin goes straight into his mouth and lodges in
his throat.

He immediately starts choking and going blue in the face, and Dad starts

panicking, shouting and screaming for help.

A middle-aged, non-descript man in a gray suit is sitting at a coffee
bar in the market reading his newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At
the
sound of the commotion, he looks up, puts his coffee cut down on the
saucer,
neatly folds his newspaper and places it on the counter. Then he gets
up from his seat and makes his unhurried way across the market.

Reaching the boy, the man carefully takes hold of the kid's testicles
and squeezes gently but firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses
violently and coughs up the 25-cent piece, which the man catches in his
free hand.

Releasing the boy, the man hands the coin to the father and walks back
to his seat in the coffee bar without saying a word.

As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no lasting ill-effects,
the father rushes over to the man and starts effusively thanking him
saying,
"I've never seen anybody do anything like that before--it was fantastic.

Are you a doctor?"

"Oh, good heavens, no," the man replies, "I am a NASDAQ Market Maker."
