Hi,

I've found out that Zumiez (a clothier that offers punk wears) is putting
itself up for IPO, so what do you guys think about it? Do you guys like
Zumiez? Do you guys think they'll pull it off with this IPO? Just need
some inputs.

Sorry, it's not 1979 anymore. I don't care about fashion now.

Never heard of it. The fashion industry is volatile. You'd
probably be better off with safe long term investments.

Yeah, just blame it on 80's trashy trend.

Anyways, it's not a fashion place. It's really more about punk/goth
alternative lifestyle (and I think Hot Topic is more goth, but Zumiez is
more skateboard people's thingy I think). You don't need to care about
fashion to make an investment. I think it's more important to know about
the prospective profitability of the business.

Huh? 1979 is the last time I paid any attention to fashion.

And how am I supposed to glean that if I am unaware of fashion trends?

Stock market is irrational. For short-term investment, it's about
outguessing other investors' sentiment. And thanks for the advice.
Everyone should have some mixture of both short-term and long-term
investments.

Did you have any stock in LEXR? Man, it went from a bit over $3 to $6 a
couple days ago. Cha-ching! That's almost as much fun as a split.

Please, don't boast over something like that, Poly. You're smarter than
that.

Since when is punk wear 80's?

Besides, you make your own clothes.

I love the people at concerts begging me for cigarettes since they are
so broke while wearing fully styled sets which each cost at least
500€.

No..., I meant that Poly stopped paying attention to the fashion since
1979, which is the end of the 70's, so that probably suggests that Poly
thinks there is something wrong with 1980's..., you see.

> Besides, you make your own clothes.

I don't.... Though I would love to. I think I have outgrown most clothing
stores now, and their offerrings are not trendy enough for me.

LOL! I'm getting there, btw.... Except I don't go to a concert and I
don't smoke cigerettes....
