Susan: Hey Jack did you hear the rumor that P&G is thinking about purchasing X?<\/p>\n

Jack: No. Let’s see what we can find about the CEO.<\/p>\n

Susan: Sure. I saw in a picture once that she has an Android. Let’s use maps, calendar, docs, and voice to see whether, she has been talking to X, physically been to X, scheduled to meet with X, or written about X, or searched about X recently.<\/p>\n

Jack: Good idea<\/p>\n

How about this<\/p>\n

Paul: Kerkorian has a meeting with Hilton and certainly been googling, etc. about Hilton a lot recently, and has been going to his lawyers a lot. His activity is similar to what he did before when he tried a hostile take over of Y.<\/p>\n

Jennifer: We should buy some stock just in case.<\/p>\n

Jack: Great idea.<\/p>\n

Hopes this helps.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
