This stock crossed my radar screen recently and just decided today to take the plunge and buy 500 shares. Here's my foolish and simple plan: buy at $5 and sell at $7.375, which is a 47% gain before commissions & taxes.

If it takes over a year to get to $7 3/8's then so much the better(L-term gain status), but I'm setting my sell price now to avoid getting greedy later.

People will die. Better quarters lie (lay?) ahead. Dividends accrue. No worries.

See you all at $7 & 3/8
