facebook. i think google after this quarter can write its own ticket. if it wants to be the fifth tv network after nbc, cbs, abc, fox, it can be there in a moment's notice. if it wants to buy the entire nfl package it can. if it wants to charge you a nice chunk of chain for watching youtube it will. if it wants to raise rates it can. if it wants to become the stock exchange wiping out the others like the nyse and others it can. after that, i don't know what google could don't if they set their niepds to it. most restaurants struggled to show positive comps. many of the same store sales went over year over year. and i think we'll cheer for buffalo wild wings tonight and then chipotle reported 9.3% comparable sales growth. i thought it was a typo. 1.9%, something inverted? accelerating same store sales growth. particularly october, november, december, going up like that. not only that, chipotle got there largely thanks to more people coming to the stores. this is at a time when its own real marketing is the farm and dangerous youtube programming featuring
