Re: The gorilla is hungry again

 

It has come to my attention that many of you are feeling good about yourselves and our recent string of record profits.  

Well, knock it off!

You people obviously do not understand our pact with the devil (i.e., Wall Street) 

When we went public, the 500-pound gorilla of expectations moved into my office.

Fine. We expected it. And we weren’t surprised when he was hungry. 

So we worked hard to feed that gorilla and make him happy. 

What did he do? He grew into the 550-pound gorilla. And he was hungrier than ever. So we fed him even more, 

and he became the 605-pound gorilla. Get it?  

The gorilla now takes up most of my office. He puts his giant head on my shoulder,

drooling, grunting "More....More".
