Sheez....I was shocked to see you turn so bearish. Then even more shocked to see you hyping atml, a stock I am in and love......but damn Jim, I have always admired your TA and am very glad to see you crosss back over from the dark side. You and I are very much alike in that, we would do wonderfully if we just used and went by our own TA. But we never listen to what our TA tells us, and therfor we get killed. Anyway, glad to have you back....what are ya buying besides atml.....jdsu still looks very nice and cheap....should do very well especially with sdli deal closing.........rmbs looks interesting with hopeful good earnings and upcoming agreements........love the flash sector....atml, ssti and sndk........

happy new year....hope today is the start of better things to come.....

My Dog Sex

For protection, my father bought me a German Shepherd dog. Everyone gives a dog some normal name like Rover or Sammy. I call mine Sex. Now Sex is a very embarrassing name for me to deal with.

One day I took Sex for a walk, and he ran away from me. I spent hours looking for him. A cop came over to me and asked “What are you doing in this alley at 4:00 in the morning?” I said “I am looking for Sex.” My case goes to court on Thursday.

One day I went to City Hall to get a dog license and told the clerk, “I would like to have a license for Sex.” He replied “I would like to have one also.” To which I said “But this is a dog.” And he said he didn’t care how she looked. Then I attempted to explain “You don’t understand, I had Sex since I was two years old.” He shot back “You must have been a remarkable little boy.”

I told the clerk that my wife and I have separated, we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I pleaded “Your Honor, I had Sex before I was married.” The judge said “Me too.” Then I told him I once had Sex on television. He called me “Showoff.” I told him it was a contest and he said that I should have sold tickets. I also mentioned to the judge about the time when my wife and I were on our honeymoon and we took the dog, Sex. When I checked into the hotel, I told the clerk that I wanted a room for my wife and me, but a special room for Sex. The hotel attendant tried to make it clear to me that every room in the hotel was for Sex. Then I urged “You don’t understand. Sex keeps me up at night.” The man said “Me too.”

I give up.

JW - W had all the boys down in Texas today. I beleive Michael Dell was there and he is significant because he is firstly a local boy and secondly his business has been whacked more than most by the irrational obsession.

My guess is that W listened to what the business leaders told him, then picked up the phone in front of them and called Mr G and told him Texas style that there was a new team in town and would he please cut the rate and do it now and lastly that he wouldn't be asked twice as thats not the way people do things in Texas.

My guess is that the tone in W's voice was enough to convince Mr G to jump and immediately.

Best regards,

L
