I Dreamed I Went Public in my Maidenform Bra

After 80 years as a privately held company, Maidenform, in a cleavage from its previous policy, is announcing an IPO. Let's hope this provides a lift to the company's fortunes -- that is, if the odds aren't stacked against it.

Of course, if this doesn't work, the company could go bust.

Mole is keeping MFS62's chair warm for him while he's out of town.

I'm recommending a STRONG BUY on this stock, with the caveat that you must sell after 18 hours.

Ms. Dickshot pointed out a bra is the VS catalog the other day that costs 45 US dollars.

Now, I can see some of that fancy Italian designer stuff going for that $$ (or at least, I've seen it priced that way) but ... what can a 45 dollar bra do for you that a 25 one cannot?

Mounds of interest in this stock. My broker says it's a firm buy.

More than you can imagine.

Trust me, there isn't much I haven't imagined while thumbing through the VS catalog, so I ain;t talking about THAT.

Yes, thank you Mole.

Back from vacation last night.
I never caught that story while I was away.
You carried on a great tradition.

Thanks again,
Later

It is a subject that must be handled delicately.

An old Johnny Carson line:
"The number 1 question you should never ask in a Victoria's Secret - does that come in children's sizes?"
