[FWDLK] Happy Days are here AGAIN!!!!



Many of us have probably heard the WORD, yesterday, but I just found
out, today, that as of Friday August 3, 2007 , (to quote the L.A. Times
Business section, today) : " Chrysler, once home to Lee Iacocca and the
populizer 
of the minivan, is an AMERICAN COMPANY AGAIN."

Cerberus Capital Management on Friday closed its $7.4 billion  deal to
buy a controlling
sharein the 82-year-old automaker from DEADlerChrysler, the german
parent of mercedes bends.

With the closing, Aunurn Hills , MI-based CHRYSLER [ no Deadler,
anymore!!! ] becomes the first  U.S. automaker in private hands since
Ford went public, in 1956 

NOW GET THIS: [editorial comment] :

Chrysler, which plans a companywide celebration Monday when it will
REVIVE 
its five-pointed Pentastar logo, will be free  of the quarterly earnings
pressures that public firms face.

HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(too bad Plymouth's not here, to see this day, but, maybe sometime in
the not-far-future, there will be a PLY,  to sell entry-level/family
cars, again)
