Reading Time: < 1 minute (Update June 6) The bumper is on the way now. It’s from: USAUTOPARTS NETWORK, 17150 S. MARGAY AVE, CARSON CA90746, as shown from agsystems. Not UPS or Fedex.   (Original June 5) No I have not involved in car accident or anything.

Reading Time: < 1 minute On Dec 15, 2006 I bought 46 shares of CROX at $42.40. I bought and sold (traded) more CROX afterwards, but I kept those 46 shares all the time. This morning it reached as high as $85.10.

Reading Time: < 1 minute Went to Chesterfield mall yesterday. Something new (at least new to me): 1) Journeys is expanding there. The regular Journeys got a new place (first floor, at the intersection), the old Journeys store is “Journeys Kids”. Journeys is a subsidiary of Genesco (GCO).

Reading Time: < 1 minute I thought Chinese colleges like to change their names, such as my undergraduate alma mater, Huazhong Institute of Technology (HIT), changes its name to Huazhong University in Science and Technology (HUST) during 1987-1988, it changed its Chinese name again in 1990s (From 理工Li Gong to 科技Ke Ji).  It seems some US schools like name changes too. My

Reading Time: < 1 minute But I don’t regret it. I noticed J. Crew (JCG) IPO last summer, and started pay attention to its stock.

Reading Time: < 1 minute It’s a business broadcast done in a new way. Here is the link. I heard about this site and watched a clip of “Crocs” a while ago.

Reading Time: < 1 minute I stopped by the Ted Drewes today, the best Ice Cream place in St. Louis. Surprisingly, it only has two stores in St. Louis, and the owners intentionly kept it that way.
