denversteve has a reputation beyond repute

I would rather find good deals away from the store. I just picked up this Porsche Design jacket (retail $229 at the PD store) for $40 like new - & no blisters.

Yeah, I guess I shouldn't have expected a $900 phone to work well. But I must say I am very impressed with your jacket story. I wish I was that smart.

Lucky, timely, fortunate maybe but not smart. My smart is buy Johnson Controls and hold it until you retire. Oh, and stay away from Facebook until it tanks. Free today only.

JCI's been around hovering around 30-40 for the past 5 years. Not sure what you're hoping to hit. Had you really been smart you would have bought TRW at it's low. Agree with FB, I do valuations and couldn't get that thing higher than 25/share and that was pushing their profit beyond what I think they're capable of achieving. 42 was nuts!
