    The critics have been having a hallelujah good time the last few months as they have watched Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) stock price drop around 30%.  That's troubling.  So, what can be our hope for the future?

    Well, did you ever wonder why cartoon characters are always...like...wearing gloves?  Surely the animators couldn't possibly think it to be a good reflection of reality.  Really, who wears gloves at all?  Besides a butler and perhaps the Queen, no one wears white gloves.  Yet Mickey Mouse, Bugs Bunny, and even the Super more »
