I’m a guy. I don’t have time to waste waggling my butt into a pair of jeans to check the fit. The IPADs are really cool. I don’t have to try to guess what I look like from the back side. It’s like something from the space age. The only thing missing from the denim bar is a candy jar filled with free samples of Cialis. After all, I’m a guy.

Haven't heard any more about Ron's monthly menu serving hot dogs one month , a popcorn wagon popping popcorn all day long throughout another month, and the ice cream social was supposed to be in July. Another program where the walk never matched the talk. Probably have just a paper plate of Vanilla Wafers ("poor man's cookie") and some cheap juice drink on TV trays at center store. What a disaster this has turned out to be. Store morale lower than a snake. dead stores, core customers fled in droves, etc. "Fair and Square" pricing which really isn't. Great idea for a "case study" in a business management course.

Nobody cares what some fashion editor says. But it only takes a tiny spark to cause the computers to trigger orders on 25% short interest. Simple short squeeze and nothing more. Too many shorts late to the party on this one.

Think back...when Ron Johnson came out with the Apple stores they were very risky/different/contro... the final result was a transformation that lead to a great success. JCP is paving the way to something big, something dramatic.
