Pat, I hope this was released to all the news services.... It really gets to the bottom line.

This is a mouthful of a story, maybe you should talk to Monica about it, seems Valueless and Monica are in the same business.

Pat, I see this as a development with far reaching implications in the world of finance. When someone with the knowledge and acumen of the character in question, is finally given the freedom to utilize the 2 and a half years of active trading experience in which he has learned so much, well the investment community better look out. I mean how many new comers with the background of running a failed landscaping business and taking horticulture classes in college have reshaped the terrain of the Market? Didn't Warren Buffet start off trimming hedgerows? Didn't Alan Greenspan begin his career raking leaves?

What an exalted group to become a member of, we can only hope that with our years of investing to someday approach what can only be spoken of as greatness! What an honor to receive the wisdom of a such a 'man'.

Pat,
I gotta admit, for a while I thought this was a follow on to the
news from awhile back about "Franklin expands - again" LOL

YOU are in the wrong profession (whatever you are getting paid for, you should be writing SS and fiction novels)!

Finally got off the floor from LMAO.

Pat, that was a well written, and even funny story. Coming from an FTEL bull, I'm impressed :o)

I'm also impressed with your research, but I am disappointed in Frank. He said he would never humiliate me by telling everyone the true story of my disgruntled FTEL past !

It wasn't fair ! Why did they cover the grass with a parking lot ! I told them I could sod the grass after the meeting was over !

That's it. Now I'm madder than ever. Did I tell you about . . .

On a serious note (the above was ficticious, of course), FTEL is doing very well today on high volume. I'm impressed. I wonder if news is coming out soon.

FTEL: $ 4.43b $ 4.56a vol 304,700

As a little background for THE PARKING LOT ENLARGEMENT decision. A friend and I were at Franklin's headquarters a couple of weeks ago, the parking lot filled, except for Frank's space. So WE TOOK FRANK'S SPACE. Frank, the experienced and decisive executive that he is, realizing that this was unseemly, and in fact unprecedented, then made that fateful decision.

Sorry VS. I'm sure you'll find something else. Maybe you can try to be an investment advisor. (Sorry Seth)

Marvin

P.S. Great post Pat
