The best idea he had was to take his pi55 poor brand name off the box.

I thought he was killed by Gandalf.

And what has kept your business afloat Sir?

My innate brilliance. Yours?

[AtW]

And what has kept your business afloat Sir?

[sasguru]

I don't like the git, but actually he's right. If you read the original words and not the "edited highlights". His point, I think, althougfh he's not very articulate, was that too many companies were being kept afloat by easy credit rather than the intrinsic value of the business.

Spot on.

Always happens in a frothy boom.
