Agreed. Over the last week especially, I've heard so many talking heads saying that Warren has lost it, he's too old, etc. They're harping on KO, AXP and the stock positions.

I haven't eaten there since the outbreak, but it's not due to the ecoli outbreak. At least in Cincy there are local burrito chains taking market share. One such place is Curritos. They are a block away from the downtown Chipotle location. And yes the Chipotle has a primo location on Fountain Square and most of the time there's a line to the door. However, part of that long line is due to demand, the other part of it is slow service. The Currito location has four registers and two assembly lines. They will move 4 to 5 times the amount of people that Chipotle does during lunch hour easily. Another item is product control. I can go to this Chipotle on several different times, order the same burrito with same ingredients and none will be the same. For consistency and quick service I go to Curritos. I wonder how many other local areas have seen an increase in local burrito joints opening up. Have you seen the same?

welcome to the club :) Congratulations! (it's an easy stock to own, a real armchair ride) Welcome and enjoy! http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMjAw/z/rQIAAOSwrklVTsmE/$_35.JPG

Got my print in today. Very nice, and larger than I was expecting. Can't wait to frame it and get it on the wall. Thanks again!

Definitely interested in a couple as well.

Dexter shoes, lol!

No offense to anyone involved, but this topic has to be one of the most ridiculous discussions on this board in awhile.

Thanks for the link. Got the 2013 credential I needed, and picked up a Buffett baseball jersey just for ####'s and giggles.

If anyone has an extra 2013 pass available, I need one. My custodian messed up my registration and I didn't receive mine last year. I'm going to frame all the passes and hang them in my office and need to get the 2013. Thanks, Steve

Thanks for posting. I could barely sit through some of those ridiculous questions. Surprised WEB has as much patience as he has.

Interesting to start seeing more and more of WEB looking back on his life and teaching aspect of his speeches. More focused on relationships, time spent with others, etc. A glimpse into a man that's accomplished many a things in life, but has realized that money can't buy time back.

Was going to come here and post my disappointment as well. Absolutely nothing to gain by withholding his vote and not voting against it.

Got mine as well. Finally.

A Charlie Munger one would be better for that. I would totally buy a Munger FatHead. Even better! Great idea.

When they do start coming in will somebody update this thread. I had a problem with this last year with my custodian and am hoping it's fixed for this year. TIA.

I bought one as well. I wish the FatHead would have Warren with a scowl on his face though. I could hang it over my desk in my home office and look at him every time I'm getting ready to place a trade, lol.

Blue Ash Kmart in Cincinnati, Ohio closing This store has been a shell for at least a decade now. Should have been shuttered a long time ago. http://www.wlwt.com/news/local-news/hamilton-county/kmart-to-close-hunt-road-location-in-blue-ash/24582348

Liberty, thanks for posting that. Nice read.

Agree. Not much of a precedent set to use as a deterrent. No jail time, and keep your money.

Layeth the smacketh down!

I've been kicking around this idea lately as well. I have a bundled package thru Time Warner for cable/internet/phone. And have cell phones thru Verizon for the family as well. The amount I'm paying for these two services makes me cringe. For the phones, I've been kicking around the idea of getting pay as you go cricket phones for emergency calling, then buying a couple if iPod Touches for the family to use for their internet and texting. That would save a lot of money each month on the phone plan. Not sure what I'm gonna do about the cable plan though.

At first glance reading thru this quickly, I thought that said "Dunder Mifflin"! ;D

My family gets a kick out of that commercial as well. I text my wife the youtube link this morning, lol.
