...Maybe it would have been easier if I had religiously followed all that advice I got last summer and neatly mapped out a plan. But I feel like I packed more into a year that many of my classmates did, just because I figured out my path as I went along. I survived, and this fall I'm blustering right back in through the gates and looking for new rocks to overturn...
...Francisco's W. R. Hambrecht. But here's the more important part. The mechanics are complicated, but common sense says that iVillage's offering price was set too cheap if it immediately quadrupled. Even though iVillage's first-day run-up was spectacular, most of that money went to the investment bank's big customers who were allocated apparently underpriced shares.

That meeting went poorly, only partly because I was distracted by the UPN office, which is bright, cheerful and contains a life-size bronze statue of Sherman Hemsley in a bell-bottom suit holding a piece of pie. Let me repeat that: bright, cheerful and contains a life-size bronze statue of Sherman Hemsley...
...only is this an incredibly embarrassing situation for young teens, possibly on their first date, but it might not even be allowed. When Scream came out, I was eager to see it; and my dad drove me, a couple of friends and my younger brother to the theater and went in to buy us tickets. They informed him that he would have to go into the movie with us; his permission was not sufficient to let us in. Since my dad couldn't stay to see the movie, we all went back home, where he instead had to spend...
