OTOH-- When i went back to actually read the page [I posted as soon as it loaded-- but hadn't read it yet]-- it wants me to log in. It said I could log in through Facebook-- but after a minute of churning, dire messages about security certificates- having to bypass my popup blocker- and then getting a 'nobody home' message- I figured it wasn't worth it.

Yes, Simply Heinz is delicious.
If I recall, John Kerry's wife was a Heinz heir-wonder how much stock he/she own/owned in the company? I figure for him to run for President again. Hopefully someone explains the facts of life to Biden before then. I dabbled in the online stock market in a very small way for awhile till I realized I simply didnt have enough time (or money) to do it properly. When I read Buffet bought Heinz I thought of the excellent Simply Heinz ketchup (and John Kerry back in the political inner circle) and realized I should have seen it coming. Getting ready to do taxes today and was checking my account. Years ago my first stock purchase was VMI at $17 a share. I could barely afford just a few shares. I sold for a tiny profit and it was a fun learning experience. While checking my account for kicks I looked up current price of VMI. Gulp $158 a share. Makes me wish I had hocked everything to buy a large amount of shares. |

As stated, the Heinz BB's and Sp, are bland and boring. Watties are the best for both products..... ven though they are Kiwi. -- Peter Brisbane Australia Success isn't so difficult.
