Would you be buying or selling at these prices?

I'm not a stock analyst. I bought some of both on the way down and sold
some of the RCL at a good profit when it hit $27 back in January. I
plan on holding what I have left and have no plans to buy more.

Since I usually take 3 or 4 cruises a year, I also get $100 each cruise
in OBC as a shareholder benefit.

Well, I bought Southwest Airlines shares this time last year and I also made
a handsome profit.

It is nice to see you back, Andy. One of these days we will have to

In general, I've been buying since about December. I bought some
stuff in late 2008 and I'm in the process of selling the winners and
buying good but well priced stocks.

HINT: China is experiencing what some are warning is a real esate
bubble AND a stock market bubble AND a foreign investment bubble that
may all pop at once. I'm currently staying away from BIC.

A group of us are cruising on the Triumph in May, during Mother's Day
week. We will leave some of the fun for you and the Chee-Weez fans. 8-)
