So mon ami, Monsieur SlideurSurLeNoire, ecoute, En Garde! Calling the Bull out of retirement, are you? Well then, you should know that top calling when the Bull still owns stock is tantamount to "Fightin Words"! I came this close || to throwing down the gauntlet and demanding satisfaction with sabres! <VBG> I however, remembered, my sacred covenant with the Right Reverend Grand Pooooche and decided to retire from the field, still a gentleman, and with my reputation and composure intact. As General Gustave Touton Beauregarde Bull reconoitres the field, this is what he sees. The heavy artillery and cavalry (SLB, SII, HAL, DO, etc.) have ripped massive holes in the enemy lines and have rolled up the flanks. They are tired from their headlong assault. They need to regroup, refit, rest and get a hot meal. At the center of the field stands Pork Chop Hill (in honor of the redoubtable and ever bearish Stonewall Razorbak). This hill must be taken to secure the field, and it is here that the battle still rages. Pork Chop Hill is currently under assault by the laggards. The bears, nervous nellies, top callers, get me out evens, and profit takers are putting up a good fight, but they are surrounded now and rapidly running out of ammo. Their days on the summit are numbered, as 1st Corp. ,The Black Hats, are now advancing on the field at all possible speed. At the very latest, they will arrive on the field in May, n'est pas? Their cannon will be loaded with cannister and they will be itching for a brawl. What will be their calling card? FLC up 2 bucks on 10 million shares, takin' out all the stops above 10 and 3/8s. Tomorrow, the next day, next week, it does not matter, the laggards will take that BLOODY DAMNED HILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And yours truly, Gen. GTB Bull (semi retired) will be there to plant the colors.
