Good morning Sonny, I am tickled that you finally got those Furbies. I have not even attempted to find one yet. Congratulations to you and Frank and Sonki on your AOL. I know that you all must be in heaven over the great move that it has made. That is really really fabulous. Merry Christmas and Happy holidays to you. As you can see, I am doing the late shift tonight. (or I guess this morning) Best regards, Margaret

Good morning Sonny, Yes! I do know about this year's hottest Christmas toy. the Furby. Last year it was Tickle Me Elmo. My favorite toy this year is Tickle me AOL (ggg) My wife and I went to Toy's R US to see all the toys that are out now and you would not believe the mad house and the lines. There are so many toys with chips that sound off or make music and they are expensive as some of them cost $30 or $40 dollars. When I was a kid I was lucky to get a yo-yo for Christmas and a pair of street skates that mom got from saving up her yellow and green trading stamps. Remember them??? Yes the news on AOL caught me by surprise. One minute I was looking to see how my stocks did and when I went back over it again the figure for AOL changed and I thought I was seeing a major error. I first took on 1000 shares of AOL on margin and got it right after the recent split but sold it a day later and took a $3500 lost. I was not used to being on margin for that amount. I later bought back 250 shares in the low 90's and went the stock crossed over 100 with a 5 point gain on Friday. I thought about it over the weekend. My gut instinct told me after seeing the movie"YOU"VE GOT MAIL to get back into it. You and Sonki kept endorsing it and now I really feel that it is a blue chip internet stock. Yesterday's announcement that it will be added to the S+P index was a great endorsement. Monday Morning at the opening I picked up another 900 shares on margin and so my total is 1150 shares. My recent entry point was just shy of 110. It will be a great deal especially if the stock moves up to 200 before the end of the year and then splits. Markets are closed today in Japan. D'ont those guys ever work???? The S+P futures are down a little but who cares. I am hoping that the news on AOL and the great earnings after the bell on 3com will spark a rally today. Have a great Wednesday and a Merry Merry Christmas to you and your family Frank
