Glenn: As always thanks for your work -- if and when this stock ever gets below $10, let alone bankrupt, and I'm still not convinced that that will ever occur, but in case it does -- I propose a bear weekend barbaque at glenn or zax's (we'll probably have an east coast -- west coast debate, but we can settle it, should we ever be that lucky) and glenn and zax do not pay for any drinks or food, artwork and persistent sluethery should be rewarded!!! Now on to the business of pummeling this stock into hoped for submission. 1. ordered a gift of books for a friend through bks.com, stupidly put in my own address rather than the gift recipient for delivery -- bks returns my email with a phone call, as i requested, and says hey -- no problem, just return the books to ANY physical store and we can send them out again from our main shipping facility, or the store can send them out for you, or just leave them and we'll do a pick up -- whatever is easiest!!! 2. H&Quist -- no offense but is reknowned through out the investment banking world for taking sh-t companies public when no one else will ... shocker that the co. dude would tout the stock, just shocking 3. William, baby, life is too short to be a fair weather fan, I have fun with this stock going both up and down -- my response was prompted only by your sanctimonious tone and pretensions to understanding the market better than everyone else, as for your claims of amzn going up .... see #4 4. Please read the below excerpt about what an insanely good week this was for the stock market, and then tell me that amzn's anemic performance relative to the market and to its previous manic weeks actually gives you any comfort about its future. search.nytimes.com Capping its best week in 14 years, the Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 8.93 points, or nine-tenths of 1 percent to 1,056.42. For the week, the index gained 7.31 percent, its best showing since the week of Sept. 3, 1984, according to Birinyi & Associates. And the Nasdaq composite index concluded its best week in 24 years, rising 9.94 points, or six-tenths of 1 percent, to 1,620.95. For the week, the Nasdaq, home of many fast-growing technology companies, soared 8.6 percent.
