Wannabe Investors,

I know we're supposed to be non-commercial here, but I just couldn't leave
all of you, my Pinhead friends, out in the financial cold.  SOL.COM has
received hostile takeover offer (I think that's what it's called) from
TS,Eliot.com.  To get in on this never-in-a-lifetime opportunity, send your
investment (cash only, no bills larger than $20) now.

BTW, although the response to this offer from my friends has been less than
overwhelming,  the triplets were thrilled to be able to turn over their
college savings accounts.  Mrs. Ralph has not yet voted, with her feet (and,
yes, she does have hands)

Sorry, no prospectus.

Ralph
