Sounds that her ears will get rather warm from the workout. <gg>

Just wondering why she will feel so terribly anxious to please down in Kiwiland? Aside form general global neighborliness, rapport, and camaraderie, of course. <gg> And that annoying instinct of Americans to try to please everyone, at least when face to face.

Nosy lot those Kiwis, I hear. And had the cheek to steal the America's cup from us, to boot. <g>

Oooops. Just remembered. It's the strategic alliance!!! All those port visiting privileges for the fleet. (You know, the late 20th century nuclear one.) <g>

Well, maybe it is the sherry after all.<gg>

Maurice,

Craig Schilling has not posted for a long time. Ranger Mike disappeared into the woods. qdog then signed off. Caxton and Tom only post occassionally now. Of the old timers, I think there is only you and I.

So I feel responsible to disclose the strange virus that attacks brain cells on this thread and forwarn any lurkers who are considering participating. The reaction is unpredictable. Sometimes it make you babble endless hours about college football, or how a bunch of high school drop outs can make an insane amount of money hitting a white ball with a stick. Other times, the virus turns an average dork into geo politicians, debatting the impact of the elections in Haiti over the sheep prices in NZ.

Unfortunately, a new symptom has now surfaced. It makes every poster mention my name, regardless of how it is totally irrelevant to what they have to say.

As for Dell, it is rather difficult not to take a look at this company for trading purposes. In most cases, the SI forum is a great place to start. The 54000 posts are actually very easy to read. It is the only thread you can read by taken a sample size of two. The first one will say "DELL for President". The second one says "Why would God want to be President". Then it repeats itself indefinitely, alternating between one and two.

By the way, Jon, if you can't lick them, join them. QCOM closed at 63 on Friday, bid 63, ask 63 1/8.
