A lotta decades back, phone lists included names of a directory, like ‘Pennsylvania 6- 5000’ in the song. When folks asked for our number, Dad would reply Adam 8-1 apple 2. Usually got a pause, then a laugh.
“Eve said to Adam, ‘Get away from that tree – you’ll pick the fruit and they’ll blame it one me.’” (I’ver never known the name of the songwriter who wrote those lines. It may have been Bryan Bowers. I used to hear him sing it, and it has stuck in my head for years.)
If an IPO is available to retail investors, stay away. The successful startups gate keep initial purchases so the important people are sure to get their share.

You can’t go wrong with this first share of Apple™️ going public.

everyone knows it wasn’t the snake or the apple that tempted adam….
First we state that women require time and money : Women = Time X Money And as we all know “time is money” Time = Money
Therefore by substituting Money for Time we get: Women = Money X Money Women = (Money)2
And because “money is the root of all evil” we therefore can state: Money = (Evil)1/2 And Since (Money)2 = Women Then (Money)2 = Evil
And we are forced to conclude by substituting “women” for “(money)2” from above that: Women = Evil

It’s Bill and Melinda before they got married, and that’s “Microsoft Bob,” which she helped design and market. That was sure a green apple.

always wait 2-3 months on IPOs they tend to drop in price before they take back off again (assuming they take off again).

“Follow the money.” The more history I read, the truer this turns out to be.

….but Adam was apprehensive, so Eve, it was, that dove right into the stock market.

This all goes back to the time when Adam and Eve were first around
Some people blame the apple in the tree
But I blame the pear on the ground
When Adam saw Eve’s soft eyes and pretty curls
He yelled—“O Lord!! I’ve got more ribs! Have you got more girls?”

And Eve said – “Go on, do it .. go on! Pick the fruit, go on!” and Adam said "No .. you can do it … I’ll leave it up to you. "

Of course, the Bible doesn’t say it’s an apple – just a ‘fruit’.
