    Exclamation 3M on a roll!

    First I heard that they had purchased The Edge and now I have heard that they are buying Meguiar`s.
    I have no idea if it is true or what effect it may have on any of the companies involved.

    I think the media poll said Turtle Wax and Meguiar`s were in a dead heat to merge with 3M.

    The announcement was posted on MOL so that is an official source. We shall see.

    For real, did they acquire The Edge????

    I guess Barry Meguiar will devote all his time now to the show Car Crazy on Speed. LOL
    It surprises me that in the world of mergers and acquisitions that something like this hasn`t happened yet.

    They wanted Detail City too but I`m not selling.

    What would I do with myself without DC?

    Steve, your will power is amazing. I know that I would have caved in with the last offer of $98,000,000 that you received. It is most admirable that you are holding out for the last $2,000,000 in order to see that Pockets is well taken care of.
