Tom, I'm glad to see you noticed the lack of capitalisation I always try to use when referring to life's scum.
I figure that since jeff abbott had decided to steal from someone who had always helped him, the least I could do was to return the favour and show my complete lack of respect [and a lot more besides] ... hence no capitals when I refer to the thief.
exactly, and i normally reserve this for a certain compny.

I assume then because you are referring to him in the present tense, he didn't venture over for a cuppa and a chat at campaign?

Another UK manufacturer will firmly establish their presence in the global market ;)

If 50 cal takes over the world we're all in trouble.
1. I predict/hope it bombs.

2. The MS put their prices up, and everyone squeals, but they still sign-up for Malaga.

3. Eclipse fall off the top. Dye gain ground in the market after picking up Dynasty in the off-season.

4. Procaps and Tippmann merge.

5. KEE buy Kingman.

6. JT have a great year with their new 2010 clothing line, and become somewhat cool again.

7. Chuch Hendsch returns to the industry at the head of a multi-million dollar investment from an out-of-industry source.

8. England win the World Cup.

9. People start getting wise to Obama.

10. Pete's overhaul of P8nt is a success, he is elated and allows Brockdwarf back on in a moment of weakness. 3 days later he's banned again, and Pete goes back and decapitalises his name in all the threads he's ever posted on, just to make a point...

Please expand on this as I'm at a loss as to think of too many negatives regarding 50 Cal hitting the market.

2. The MS put their prices up, and everyone squeals, but they still sign-up for Malaga.
I think this is more a sad indictment of us ballers, sad but true :rolleyes:

3. Eclipse fall off the top. Dye gain ground in the market after picking up Dynasty in the off-season.
I can't see that picking up Dynasty will significantly boost Dye sales Missy, if they do gain ground then it's due more to their brand resilience maybes.
As for Eclipse falling off the top?
I think nothing much is gonna change there Missy, mainly because Planet, much like Dye, have managed to maintain consistency of quality in their product lines.

4. Procaps and Tippmann merge.
Makes sense I suppose which normally means it ain't gonna happen but hey, let's hope so.

5. KEE buy Kingman.
I'm not so sure this makes any sense at all because Kingman sales have been declining for some now and their product line isn't exactly 'cool'.
If Kee buy Kingman, then Kingman are doing a lot better than I previously thought.

6. JT have a great year with their new 2010 clothing line, and become somewhat cool again.
As you know Missy, JT ceased to be cool when two things happened, their original owner sold the company, and then Dye grabbed the 'cool factor' baton and ain't stopped running with it - the only chance JT would seem to have of taking that back from Dye is when Dave Youngblood comes round to lap them [once again] and they hit him over the head with their baton.

7. Chuch Hendsch returns to the industry at the head of a multi-million dollar investment from an out-of-industry source.

8. England win the World Cup.
Actually we have a pretty good chance of that, well maybe not a good chance but certainly the best one for a long time.

9. People start getting wise to Obama.
As a wise man once said, 'no matter who I vote for, the government always seems to get in' ..... it don't matter a sh!t who runs the US, it's the same ole, same ole ... but this time it has a different coloured face, no real change I'm afraid.

10. Pete's overhaul of P8nt is a success, he is elated and allows Brockdwarf back on in a moment of weakness. 3 days later he's banned again, and Pete goes back and decapitalises his name in all the threads he's ever posted on, just to make a point...
LOLOL ....... you will probably be 100% on the money with this :)
