Turn the copywriters loose on a basically sound idea and the sky’s the limit! Thanks for your continuing efforts to sort out what these guys are talking about.

Each of my son’s in turn has gone through a phase where they have figured “it” out. It generally starts with “All you’ve got to do is . . . ”

These come-ons for the newsletters are all playing to that “all-you’ve-got-to-do” part of all of us that never quite seems to be outgrown.

With your sleuthing we can all save a lot of money by going back to detective Joe Friday’s standard line from the old Dragnet tv shows – “Just the facts, Ma’am.”

Again, thanks.

Nice Job, Travis. I agree — I don’t think there has been any talk of spinning off the operation. I think this is a very speculative concept, not founded on any facts to date. Maybe we should suggest that Nike is going to spin off its Golf division to Tiger Wood? Better yet, that Nike is going to buy UnderArmour,,,,(oooops, that idea is already taken —by CNBC’s Cramer!).
Lots of opportunities out there — If only Toyota would buy the little three automakers, we might have a really big story!
Thanks again for your work!

Yum is also opening Eastern Dawn restaurants in China, selling fast food Chinese food to the Chinese. It is supposed to taste authentic. The Eastern Dawn chain is doing well because the Chinese know it is a sister restaurant to KFC.
