Rockie Stockie, There was a small error in my last post which is corrected here. Don't want you to miss the point. <<Rocky Tock, Had a strange dream about you last nite. You were scratching your butt, it appeared, with a CD disk, and I asked you what you were doing. Rock replied: "I have decided that all these removable storage systems are too expensive - especially the Zip since you only get 100 MB for $15 and you have to buy a drive for about $129. I really think the recordable CD disks are the best value since you get about 700 MB for 50 cents, but it busts my buns to pay about $400 for the drive/recorder so I came up with this new invention. What you see is a CD-R disk, not a CD disk sticking out of MY ass. I am training my polyps to read the dye bumps on the disk by shining a laser pointer down my throat, letting forth some wind to spin the disk, and rubbing my cheeks together to create static current that allows me to connect to my computer. Its a beautiful thing. So far I have been able to play part of a classical aria, a Nintendo game - Mario Brothers, and have recorded some sounds for a new movie." .."But Rokky", I said, aren't you a bit embarrassed by this strange display, after all Vaudeville and Ed Sullivan are over." ..Rocky Tock laughed heartily, giving the gold disk a quick spin and I became concerned that the gray smoke rising up his back meant he was getting toasted. However, a quick wiff jolted me into realizing that he actually had a well lubricated machine going back there. ..Anyway, Rock the Crock was hardly dismayed by my concerns. "You know I have been invited to do a stage gig with my invention at the Roxy this weekend.", he said, "those wild guys are absolutely gassed about the 3D sound mixing I can do on this fantastic butt machine. I believe that the Sony HiFD doesn't have a chance against me when it comes to lightning fast, ass-kicking performance. Fifty cents for the disks, a hefty bean burrito, and you are cruising." ..You gotta hand it to him, this bum is a real cad. Regards, David S. Long on Intel, Iomega and WorldCom>>

Re: Dream sequence I'm impressed, pretty funny stuff there, can't stop laughing. You seem, to me at least, talented enough to be a writer for one of those corney CNBC shows, Squawk Box, may be? I love how they qoute the show in the afternoon when talking about a specific stock that had a big move that day. As if Squawk Box is the god of the stock market, just like Herb G., is the righteous leader of uncovering the truth regarding IOM. Zead
