Re: sold BP, looking at retail to short

One youngster I had trained for our firm was a young man named Lenny.
Lenny graduated first in his class in electrical engineering at MIT.
HIs family was extremely poor, thus graduate school was not an
immediate option when he had graduated.

Eventually, he saved enough money to go to law school at night at St.
John's. Today, he is a patent attorney at MA. Everyone in our small
firm is very proud of him and all that he has accomplished. Just on
the basis of MA being able to attract one of the brightest persons I
have ever met is enough proof for me that MasterCard is the real
deal. It is the second largest holding in the self-managed portion of
our firm's pension fund (largest is Endeavour Mining).

On a more analytical note, I regard Master Card as a "lion." The lion
is one of the few predators without any natural enemies, other than
another lion... or man/woman. We'll just need to see how much steam
blows out of this lion when VISA goes public.
