Not a bad return on a $21 million investment.

Can't wait for the days when people are wishing that Tribco still owned them.

Yea great point Sonny

I have no idea how a new owner will be able to top the World Series titles the Tribune Company compiled over 26 years.

A Virtual Piggy Bank?

Al, Can't you put up a virtual piggy bank for the pooled resources of BCB and make a run at this purchase? We've got almost a year to come up with the money. Maybe you could contact some of the old Usenet folks to contribute. FMR could probably purchase it himself, if he really wanted to. :)

Somewhere...

... in one of the other threads, we were taking contributions.

I think we were up to $41 the last I looked. Want to kick in some money?

Need A Better Plan

Let's figure out how to rob Mick Jagger.  Maybe that'll give us enough.

As for me, I guess I'm going to have to just play Powerball more often this year.

¡BLANCO!
