KenW, " CNBC bashing AOL ". We all know they don't like hearing that AOL is ~negotiating? to buy? CBC and eat their lunch. So what they say about AOL does not bother me, TA

Ken, As you clearly stated CNBC has a vested interest in AOL's fortunes. All should note that Insana stated on the CNBC 10th anniversary special that they would be around to document the end of the internet bubble. Obviously his bias shows in his reporting, but that's ok as long as we understand his position. Put yourself in his shoes for a minute -- wouldn't you be envious too if all these little retail investors are getting 5 baggers on their AOL stock in less than a year. Goes against the grain of the long time Wall Street good old boys club. JMHO

Thank you Ken and I agree with your assessment of Mr.Host. By the way yall, my 71 yr old aunt (pronounced ant in southernese, lol) in San Francisco just bought an HP Pavillion and is signing up with AOL so we can email and stay closer in touch. Too cool, she is a very young 71 and is fearless when it comes to learning new things. Also, I have recently talked some of my friends into buying AOL shares. Now yall dont get too excited cause they couldn't afford a whole lot but I told'em, "hey, you aint gotta sell the farm, just get a few and sit on'em...they will incubate and multiply like fleas on a dogs back. LOL. I had one friend that started out with 2 (two) shares and then got braver and braver and now has 62 by workin xtra jobs and buying on dips. Aint that just too neat? Now she is planning on her retirement via AOL in a few years. I be so proud. :-) Yall, have a Super Sunday, I cant wait til earnings come out...ah gets all tingly, hahaha. regards, Dep
