Buffalo, NY | Cash or Stock?
Thats probably $850 Million in restricted AOL stock, which will plummet long before Bebo's execs can exercise their options.
Pure speculation of course, I don't want to spend the time to prove that.... |

30 seconds. But you're busy. |

| Oh geez. Read my OP and you'll see that I SAID that I didn't read it. Thats what speculation means. The consequences of what happens with Bebo or AOL really don't matter to me, so I didn't want to spend the time to check out the article.
Not everyone has all day long to delve into every article and issue that is posted here. And if you're wondering why I'm taking the time to elaborate here, its only because I'm chomping on a couple of tacos at the moment.

And I'm not sure if it was the F in RTFA that made it a smartass comment. Sorry, drop the F. Does that help?
Or maybe it was the "But you're busy." I know a lot of people pop in here, catch up on the news, maybe fire off a comment. Lord knows, I'm in here for a couple of minutes at least 10 times a day. Lots of times I'm pretty busy too.
Hey, I know! You can start a forum called The Busy Club, and see how many join. Easy formula, with a link at the top to a current front page story, and multiple choices for remarks. At the end, just tally the numbers of As, Bs, Cs and Ds.
Never mind, my original comment was merely an expression of one of my peeves: Comments that are not based on anything in the article. They spawn further drivel.... oops, like this nonsense.
And it might be pure speculation, but tacos had nothing to do with replying to Cheese. |

| To answer your question, that particular 30 seconds was profitable. I lost my ass for the rest of the day 
Actually, I thought the "F" stood for fine. Read the Fine article right??
And the taco's were done by the time I replied to Cheese. Cripes, were you watching me?
Have a good one!! No harm no foul. |
