Mark, since I bought Seattle based SBUX when it was in its first private placement. I figure my average cost is 5c ps. I love to invest in legal addictive drugs. To be honest I drink too much tea in the morning. Btw Buy Guatemalas coffee beans. >Top-grade specialty beans of the caliber likely to win prizes and buyers in Guatemala City next week are deemed good enough to "stand alone." Such beans have successfully beaten the world price glut, still commanding high premiums in increasingly origin-conscious markets in the United States, Europe and Asia.

Mark, In Homs at 16 and no regrets. This is a .com that's going to survive. >Homestore.com (HOMS:Nasdaq - news) came in with strong top- and bottom-line numbers after the close of trading Wednesday. The company reported pro forma revenues of $118 million and pro forma cash earnings per share of 4 cents vs. estimates of $110 and break-even, respectively. Not a bad performance at all. In addition, the company actually raised its guidance for the next quarter and the rest of the year. In response to the strong results, Homestore.com was up almost $5 Thursday, accompanied by all the customary reiterations and raising of top- and bottom-line estimates by sell-side analysts. The company reported strong growth in its core subscription business, which now accounts for approximately 64% of total revenues, with the balance coming from advertising. Furthermore, the company saw an increase across all Internet metrics, including page views per day, number of homes viewed on the site and average stay per visit.
