Last week, I took the family to Hawaii. I thought there might be a Fribble in it, but I couldn't relate it to investing. So, I wrote about my trip to Tom Gardner, and he said: "The message I see in your e-mail is: Life is about smelling the roses, about your family, and yes, certainly about long-term savings growth to ensure the potentiality of both. But, the beauties in life are not quick doubles on the market; they're snorkeling in Hanauma Bay and just flat out laughing. That's the Fribble I see. But I'm greedy for sunshine news! :)" So, that's what I'll write.

Thanks, Tom.
