If you continue doing what you're doing. It's Put the lights out. The parties over. Put a Fork in it. Who's your daddy. Come to Pappa. It's over Men. If you continue. If you want to survive. You have to risk. Don't risk your cash. But you've gotta risk. You've gotta be innovative. You've gotta do something new. Something different. You've gotta either be a Number 2 somewhere. In some category. Or you've gotta create your own category. You've gotta make sweeping changes in areas that don't cost you anything. That's all there is to it Men. It's a grim story.

From the Transcript of CBS MarketWatch Weekend of Jan. 20th [FWIW] By CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 11:11 AM ET Jan 22, 2001 "... GROVE: They may be here to stay, but where will they go? Many companies have had to downsize, including Silicon Alley's TheGlobe.com (TGLO: news, msgs) , a Web site devoted to community and games. This year, it laid off 42 percent of its workforce. And after a stellar IPO, the stock is now languishing. President and COO Dean Daniels says, their priorities have changed. DEAN DANIELS (president, COO, TheGlobe.com): I think the demands of the business are now different. Before, the idea of getting profitable wasn't on the list of priorities. It wasn't Number One. The idea of getting bigger, the idea of getting market share, the idea of getting out there, that was the highest priority. Now that the priorites have shifted, businesses are focusing on what they need to focus on, which is profitability. . . ." www2.marketwatch.com Looks to me like they're taking your advice. Sounds good. Quahog
