Bought Shares of MDT

Dear Diary,

I read that I bought shares of Medtronic (MDT) at $49.85 plus a minimal commission this morning. This stock should reasonably hit $60.00 this year and has a bright future.

What I'm doing is getting diversified into at least 5 stocks that show serious promise of price appreciation in 2008 and 2009. That I've been only able to invest in three companies, as of now, shows how overpriced the market is right now. Diversification is not that big of a deal for us Buffett folks, but King Solomon promoted the idea in the book of Proverbs, so I interject just a bit into my work out of respect for my upbringing.
