Okay, it's a product of the BIC Corporation, so you can't really buy shares of Wite-Out. But I predict that sales will be skyrocketing, due to things like this:

Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday that the Trump administration "never trusted to Taliban" despite its efforts to negotiate its own withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.
On "Fox News Sunday," host Chris Wallace asked Pompeo if there were any regrets about giving the Taliban legitimacy and agreeing to release prisoners believed to be back fighting with the Taliban. The group has overtaken a bulk of Afghanistan over the past few days, culminating in the near collapse of the capital of Kabul on Sunday and the evacuation of the U.S. Embassy.

(64,852 posts)He learned in grade school. He wasn't great at it, or anything close, but they didn't cast him as the drummer because they wanted the cute one out front.
Mike was actually an OK guitar player, but didn't play any of the famous licks.
Louie Shelton played the guitar on Valerie & Last Train To Clarksville. He was a well respected session dude.
Tommy Tedesco played some of their guitar parts, too. Tommy became Mike's "intermediate guitar" mentor.
His guitar is actually on many of the songs, but the famous licks aren't him.
