MrB: Thank you so much for the picture of the new FBNA headquarters building. You can be sure it will be the focal point of my annual Christmas message to our loyal stockholders. Who'da thunk that the term "onward and upward" could have such meaning? We were indeed fortunate to acquire the 35 acres so close to downtown Sedona at such a reasonable cost. I'm sure the city took the additional tax revenue into account when they all voted to override the 14' maximum heigth restriction. What's a few extra 200' anyway? And, easy access to the municipal airport was an added incentive for us to locate in that particular site. We will, of course, have to get the flight restrictions amended so that we can fly something a little larger than twin engine Cessnas. The B52's will have a heck of a time landing on the 300' runway, so they'll have to extend the airport a few thousand feet. That will present a major challenge, since the airport is on a mesa just barely long enough to fit the airport onto. Do you know anyplace we can get a few million yards of fill dirt real cheap? Incidentally, we still haven't received the go ahead to put in a traffic light at the entry to our building. City fathers are a bit reluctant to allow more than the existing 4 lights in town. As to the "Mac" comments ... we settled on the non-Mac environment for the express purpose of increasing our non-productivity rates while we install, configure, test, find problems, reconfigure, retest, find more problems, disinstall, reinstall, .... etc. Obviously a well thought out plan, don't you think?

Humbly report, Bill, my master and I are truly moved! Not to Sedona mind you, but truly moved none-the-less! I certainly hope none of the associates will object if I remain an FBN commuter via ether on d'Apple, humbly dreaming by the mail slot of the mail room, near the first arch of the Mala Strana side of Charles Bridge, where they serve great hot rum, gratis for me, yours truly, Svejk

MrB, What can I say? You are a genius! I adore the new location of our office building - it is a very spiritual place (and my hair never frizzes). I hope our building doesn't block the view of that new house being built nearby - oh well, that house is so fancy they'll probably never look outside anyway! Thanks again, Norm

Re: got plenty of space for Janice to store 'traveling trinkets' Bill, Love the new building! Will the next FBNA shareholder meeting be in Sodona? I hope you don't over allocate space for Janice's 'traveling trinkets'. After reading the following, I suspect that the space will be needed for other things: exchange2000.com Kinda scary huh? . BTW photocopy paper (or pre-IPO shares) is not an acceptable substitute. Regards Tom Shareholder ps: What does: "You should stock enough for the rest of your natural life (or longer, depending on your religious persuasion)" mean exactly?
