740 lbs of underpowered uncomfortable art. Harley riders do their low cool wave to each other for the same reason that no one will ever tell you that a Disney vacation sucks... They both got duped.

Got an fj1300 great great bike then a Valkyrie interstate another great bike. A Beamer is in my future.

My sentiments EXACTLY. So far, the 'good' news hasn't amounted to zip- in my W2, my position in my category, or the places and equipment I fly. Wake me up when one of those things happens.

I thought wallstreet "hates" the word "growth". Isn't this what the cheerleaders tell us?

That is just silly. The business world depends on growth. Take my favorite example... AAPL. They have gone from a growth company.. where their earnings going forward were off the charts.. and reflected in their stock price.. to a value company, where the value of the company is the motivating force for investors. Now.. their growth has slowed, and the stock price (multiple really) has dropped.

Grow or die. But that has nothing to do with the topic at hand which is how these RFPs denote growth.
