If I didn't know u personally .. I'd. Ban u for life..lol..
What I'm not kidding about is that I got Banned (completely, not even 1 post/day) from ENZC Board by his/her/its friendly Mod friend- Mods actually have the power to issue bans, LOL
Everything must be taken in context. Excellent Art. Thank you for this gem.
You got to be fimg kidding me. LOL

I'm pretty well loaded, dual meaning applicable afterhours. I have no interest whatsoever in extreme sports, but I do love the extreme gains.

She moves quickly indeed. If looking to add, I would look to do so Friday before the long weekend- often bargains to be had before a long weekend, plus I think we run nice tomorrow on MOMO/FOMO, so even more likely that folks flip out a bit on Friday- but who knows anything anymore in Pennyland, LOL
Beginning to think you're right. I've been on a short business trip that happened to tangentially involved an old friend of mine who has been working on the launch of a something similar to what Eline Entertainment, Inc. is doing except in the music industry. He produces (and records) live concerts and for several years produced some popular TNN programs with rights to a treasure trove of outtakes (the last interview of Johnny Cash as just one jaw dropping example). He plans to do his version of what Eline Entertainment is doing out of his home basement studio.
In short, it can be done on a shoestring, but the profit margins can be enormous..., for hits. About the only thing I know about EEGI's history except that it was carrying a lot of toxic debt. Assuming the stock price is taking care of that, it might really have some legs fundamentally. I might still adjust my position here or there, but I'm sure not going to get in the way of these high volume price spikes.
I think it's gonna be a runner but many will wait or official PR/filing before jumping in, so it may bounce around a bit until that happens, particularly of nothing official before the long weekend- I'm in at a very low basis (.0019/.0021) so I can ride out short term roller coaster, and if it dips deep towards end of week, happy to add more
The rest of the whale is just blubber. Thoughts on EEGI today? I got a little bearish on that early spike and let others risk being led to the steering pen. Really suspicious of those premarket surges on thin volume. I would like to see it pick up a little more support before (if) I weigh back in, and of course, anything about the fundamentals of the company.
A wonderful story and it is true. You will be glad that you read it, and I hope you will pass it on.
It happened every Friday evening, almost without fail, when the sun resembled a giant orange and was starting to dip into the blue ocean.
Old Ed came strolling along the beach to his favorite pier.
Clutched in his bony hand was a bucket of shrimp. Ed walks out to the end of the pier, where it seems he almost has the world to himself. The glow of the sun is a golden bronze now.
Everybody's gone, except for a few joggers on the beach. Standing out on the end of the pier, Ed is alone with his thoughts..and his bucket of shrimp.
Before long, however, he is no longer alone. Up in the sky a thousand white dots come screeching and squawking, winging their way toward that lanky frame standing there on the end of the pier.
Before long, dozens of seagulls have enveloped him, their wings fluttering and flapping wildly. Ed stands there tossing shrimp to the hungry birds. As he does, if you listen closely, you can hear him say with a smile, 'Thank you. Thank you.'
In a few short minutes the bucket is empty. But Ed doesn't leave. He stands there lost in thought, as though transported to another time and place .
When he finally turns around and begins to walk back toward the beach, a few of the birds hop along the pier with him until he gets to the stairs, and then they, too, fly away. And old Ed quietly makes his way down to the end of the beach and on home.
If you were sitting there on the pier with your fishing line in the water, Ed might seem like 'a funny old duck,' as my dad used to say. Or, to onlookers, he's just another old codger, lost in his own weird world, feeding the seagulls with a bucket full of shrimp.
To the onlooker, rituals can look either very strange or very empty. They can seem altogether unimportant, maybe even a lot of nonsense.
Old folks often do strange things, at least in the eyes of Boomers and Busters.
Most of them would probably write Old Ed off, down there in Florida . That's too bad. They'd do well to know him better.
His full name: Eddie Rickenbacker. He was a famous hero in World War I, and then he was in WWII. On one of his flying missions across the Pacific, he and his seven-member crew went down. Miraculously, all of the men survived, crawled out of their plane, and climbed into a life raft.
Captain Rickenbacker and his crew floated for days on the rough waters of the Pacific. They fought the sun. They fought sharks. Most of all, they fought hunger and thirst. By the eighth day their rations ran out. No food. No water. They were hundreds of miles from land and no one knew where they were or even if they were alive.
Every day across America millions wondered and prayed that Eddie Rickenbacker might somehow be found alive.
The men adrift needed a miracle. That afternoon they had a simple devotional service and prayed for a miracle.
They tried to nap. Eddie leaned back and pulled his military cap over his nose. Time dragged on. All he could hear was the slap of the waves against the raft. Suddenly Eddie felt something land on the top of his cap. It was a seagull!
Old Ed would later describe how he sat perfectly still, planning his next move. With a flash of his hand and a squawk from the gull, he managed to grab it and wring its neck. He tore the feathers off, and he and his starving crew made a meal of it - a very slight meal for eight men. Then they used the intestines for bait. With it, they caught fish, which gave them food and more bait...and the cycle continued. With that simple survival technique, they were able to endure the rigors of the sea until they were found and rescued after 24 days at sea.
Eddie Rickenbacker lived many years beyond that ordeal, but he never forgot the sacrifice of that first life-saving seagull... And he never stopped saying, 'Thank you.' That's why almost every Friday night he would walk to the end of the pier with a bucket full of shrimp and a heart full of gratitude.
Reference: (Max Lucado, "In The Eye of the Storm", pp...221, 225-226)
PS: Eddie Rickenbacker was the founder of Eastern Airlines. Before WWI he was race car driver. In WWI he was a pilot and became America 's first ace. In WWII he was an instructor and military adviser, and he flew missions with the combat pilots. Eddie Rickenbacker is a true American hero. And now you know another story about the trials and sacrifices that brave men have endured for your freedom
It is a great story that many don't know. You've got to be careful with old guys, you just never know what they have done during their lifetime.
Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

KCL is a wholly owned subsidiary of RGBP- WHOLLY OWNED means 100% of the stock is owned by RGBP, so what goes to KCL flows up 100% to RGBP and to nobody else
Does no one care about the issue raised in my note below appear incorrect as to who owned the shares that the 8k discloses were sold by Regen? And theoretically, KCL made the sale and GOT THE MONEY. So Regen only got 55k, not $305k Or are these some other 10,000 shares and where did they come from? Strange happenings in OTC Lands!
And David has not confirmed as yet that the transaction actually closed as proposed on April 20.
Does anyone else have concerns or, as shareholders, do we just bury out pretty heads in the sand and go along with vague, misleading filings to the SEC?

Post # of 56942
I keep asking if the CEO issued a press release confirming that the transaction mentioned on the April 7 8K had been finalized.
No knowledgeable responses.
And the 8K I was issued this week in Regen Biopharma’s name yet the shares were issued to KCL, a separate Limited Company, as per the April 8K notice as filed with the SEC.
So who really sold the shares?
Did KCI get the monies and not REGEN?
And yes I know that KCL is a wholly owned subsidiary, but David Koss should be bright enough to state the truth, especially when he reports to the SEC!!
Interesting Article on Pump and Dump in Canada
Burned investor’s ‘pump and dump’ experience raises questions about IIROC
NIALL MCGEE MINING REPORTER PUBLISHED APRIL 22, 2021 UPDATED 9 HOURS AGO
FOR SUBSCRIBERS
102 COMMENTS SHARE TEXT SIZE BOOKMARK
About three weeks ago, Robert Edington saw a post on the internet about Graycliff Exploration Ltd. GRAY-CN (/investing/markets/stocks/GRAY-CN/) +15.38% ? and thought
it sounded promising. The Financial News website claimed the small mining exploration company was sitting on $500-million in gold reserves and that its shares were set to jump by 500 per cent. After watching the price of Graycliff shares run from 80 cents to $2.50 over about 10 trading sessions, Mr. Edington jumped in. “I decided to make a play on April 12,” he said. “It dropped like a rock only hours later.”
Mr. Edington, a semi-retired physician who lives in Peterborough, Ont., now realizes he was likely the victim of a “pump and dump.” In such schemes, con artists acquire shares in a thinly traded stock, and then spread false information that “pumps” up the price and volume. Taking advantage of artificially high stock prices, scammers then “dump” their stocks, leaving honest investors holding near-worthless securities.
Over the past few months, apparent pump and dumps originating from The Financial News have caused huge volatility in the shares of four small mining companies, three of which trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE).
Last week, Graycliff Exploration in one session raced up by 50 per cent, and then plummeted by 29 per cent. The same day, the shares of another Canadian exploration company, Valorem Resources Inc. VALU-CN (/investing/markets/stocks/VALU-CN/) +2.27% ? , which was promoted in The Financial News in a near-identically misleading fashion, jumped by 48 per cent. Three days later, the company lost a quarter of its value. All of the companies targeted this year by The Financial News, which include Chilean Metals Inc.
CMX-X (/investing/markets/stocks/CMX-X/) -5.88% ? , and Crestview Exploration Inc. CRS-CN (/investing/markets/stocks/CRS-CN/) +8.54% ? , said there was nothing to explain
the sizable swings in the price of their shares, and that company insiders had nothing to do with the promotions.
The Globe and Mail was unable to reach anyone at The Financial News. The news and financial advice website is registered to an individual called Carl Smith, who has a street address in London with a Ukrainian postal code. A listed phone number was not in service.
While Mr. Edington said he takes full responsibility for his “gaffe” in getting caught up in an apparent pump and dump, he wonders why Canadian regulators didn’t spot the problematic promotion on The Financial News weeks earlier – as he did, and act sooner before the damage was done.
The Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), is the regulator in Canada that is the first line of defence against chicanery. It monitors in real time the trading of thousands of Canadian stocks. Part of its mandate is to scan the internet for sketchy promotions, such as the ones on The Financial News, that cause wild swings in share prices. The regulator also looks for any unusual moves in volume or prices of stocks that aren’t due to material news, and is supposed to contact the company promptly to seek an explanation.
But as the recent apparent stock scams have been playing out, IIROC has been slow to react, issuing temporary trading halts on affected stocks days or even weeks after the promotions began – far too late to prevent investors like Mr. Edington from getting burned.
When asked why its surveillance efforts around Valorem and Graycliff appear to be so sluggish, IIROC spokesperson Sean Hamilton wrote in an e-mail to The Globe and Mail that the regulator can’t comment on individual stocks or any investigations that may be going on.
IIROC’s efforts to contain the recent escalation in apparent pump and dumps comes not long after it cut loose one of its most senior experts at detecting mining stock scams.
Eight months ago, the regulator dismissed Darcy Krohman. He had been employed at IIROC for six and a half years as a surveillance expert and geologist, and had four decades of experience, including stints in enforcement at the British Columbia Securities Commission. Mr. Krohman, who was terminated without cause, is suing IIROC for breach of contract. Employees are generally dismissed “without cause” as a cost-cutting exercise, as opposed to “for cause” when an employer alleges misconduct.
Mr. Krohman declined to comment for this story.
When asked about Mr. Krohman’s departure, Mr. Hamilton said IIROC doesn’t comment on HR matters, but denied his departure led to an “expertise gap” at the regulator. IIROC’s surveillance team is fully staffed, and it employs a full-time geologist, he added.
Reactions have been swifter in the United States to recent damaging promotions on small companies in The Financial News, and investors there have been largely spared as a result.
On Friday, the Financial News started trumpeting shares in Charlestowne Premium Beverages Inc., claiming the stock, which is listed on OTC Markets, a U.S. trading platform, was poised to explode more than 700 per cent.
Cromwell Coulson, the chief executive officer of OTC Markets, said that hours after the promotion was live on the internet, his staff took action, tagging the ticker symbol of Charlestowne with a red megaphone to inform investors a problematic promotion was under way. On Monday, OTC went one step further, tagging the stock with a black skull and crossbones “caveat emptor” warning.
In Canada, junior exchanges, such as The TSX Venture and the CSE, don’t flag stocks for problematic promotions. While IIROC can ask companies targeted by scammers to put out clarifying statements about suspect promotions, management of the companies sometimes wait days before acting. All of this can leave investors with little or no information after their investment has blow up.
Graycliff issued a release three days after the worst of its stock gyrations had occurred, saying it was unaware of any material change that explained what was going on. It didn’t address the Financial News promotion, and the main focus of the release was the closing of a $2.4-million financing.
James MacIntosh, the chief executive officer of Graycliff, declined to comment for this story.

Also have contacts within the cannabis industry here that may be of interest.
Let me know.

So I used a "0" (zero) instead of an "O" somewhere, LOL?
Omg. That may be the most random spattering of words that sorta make sense I've ever read and loving it.
Good to know. Lol. Plus I get better burger suggestions here anyways
I ll start posting links to messages here cause at least we can be honest here instead of dealing with the crazies.
Jeff- That was eloquently composed, yet I have no fucking clue what it means! Pure Perfection! Welcome to the Board!!
Thanks veloyt. Appreciate the thoughts- may try and get this board actually humming in coming weeks- purely as an after hours place- I think we can have some fun, share thoughts/ideas, and bash the bashers, LOL
I enjoy the humor here and when someone thinks they are above the law they need to come off their high horse and be horse whipped for awhile till they understand that they feel pain just like we do when we have no understanding of why our posts are taken off or why we got in jail
I THINK WE NEED TO GET THIS BOARD GOING ON A REGULAR BASIS-AFTER HOURS AND WEEKEND- I'M NOT "ALLOWED" TP POST LINKS TO IT, SO LET YOUR FRIENDS KNOW AND LET'S SEE IF WE CAN GET SOME CRITICAL MASS HERE
THERE'S NO JAIL IN THE LAW'S PART OF TIME- WE SETTLE THINGS THE OLD FASHIONED WAY- WITH 2X4S
I just wanted to come here for the sole purpose of letting you "The Law" know that it is indeed a fact that somewhere in the above statement there appears to be an unintentional, but perhaps meaningful, accumulation of letters that correctly includes several characters of the English alphabet attempting to form a concise term; however, it incorrectly includes a letter that is commonly mistaken for a number, or integer, digit, or concept of nothing.
The letters in question, henceforth referred to as the word (The Word) are comprised of a string of eleven characters which happen to begin and end with the correct character for the accurate, or intended spelling of the term that is typically used to describe something significant, or relevant, important, or consequential.
The proper composition of characters, or letters for the conventional spelling of The Word typically contains a string of letters divisible by two, when counted on a one for one basis with each character representing a singular unit.
It is my duty to present to you this meaningful collection of words that represent a written red-line for the statement mentioned earlier.
Cheers,
P.S. Congratulations on this wonderful board. It appears to be a nice reprieve from the abundance of whale poo on other boards (not to be specific or anything).
i appreciate all that you post and look forward to your facts to bad it goes on ears that do not want to hear that
I was put in ihub restriction"jail" for responding to posters that were just being obnoxious. So was down to one post a day. Not real jail. Lol. But no biggy thought I was restricted from every board but guess it's just the one. After a lot of lies I just started posting rebuttal and links. Nothing mean or crazy. But guess I did something wrong. Anywho I'll be out soon.

thanks for the smile and laugh
In 1976, a professor of economic history at the University of California, Berkeley published an essay outlining the fundamental laws of a force he perceived as humanity’s greatest existential threat: Stupidity.
Stupid people, Carlo M. Cipolla explained, share several identifying traits: they are abundant, they are irrational, and they cause problems for others without apparent benefit to themselves, thereby lowering society’s total well-being. There are no defenses against stupidity, argued the Italian-born professor, who died in 2000. The only way a society can avoid being crushed by the burden of its idiots is if the non-stupid work even harder to offset the losses of their stupid brethren.
Let’s take a look at Cipolla’s five basic laws of human stupidity:
Law 1: Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
No matter how many idiots you suspect yourself surrounded by, Cipolla wrote, you are invariably lowballing the total. This problem is compounded by biased assumptions that certain people are intelligent based on superficial factors like their job, education level, or other traits we believe to be exclusive of stupidity. They aren’t. Which takes us to:
Law 2: The probability that a certain person be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
Cipolla posits stupidity is a variable that remains constant across all populations. Every category one can imagine—gender, race, nationality, education level, income—possesses a fixed percentage of stupid people. There are stupid college professors. There are stupid people at Davos and at the UN General Assembly. There are stupid people in every nation on earth. How numerous are the stupid amongst us? It’s impossible to say. And any guess would almost certainly violate the first law, anyway.
Law 3. A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
Cipolla called this one the Golden Law of stupidity. A stupid person, according to the economist, is one who causes problems for others without any clear benefit to himself.
The uncle unable to stop himself from posting fake news articles to Facebook? Stupid. The customer service representative who keeps you on the phone for an hour, hangs up on you twice, and somehow still manages to screw up your account? Stupid.
This law also introduces three other phenotypes that Cipolla says co-exist alongside stupidity. First there is the intelligent person, whose actions benefit both himself and others. Then there is the bandit, who benefits himself at others’ expense. And lastly there is the helpless person, whose actions enrich others at his own expense. Cipolla imagined the four types along a graph, like this:
a chart of ineffectual people from helpless people to bandits
Stupidity, graphed. Photo by Vincedevries on Wikimedia, licensed under CC-BY-SA 4.0
The non-stupid are a flawed and inconsistent bunch. Sometimes we act intelligently, sometimes we are selfish bandits, sometimes we act helplessly and are taken advantage of by others, and sometimes we’re a bit of both. The stupid, in comparison, are paragons of consistency, acting at all times with unyielding idiocy.
However, consistent stupidity is the only consistent thing about the stupid. This is what makes stupid people so dangerous. Cipolla explains:
Essentially stupid people are dangerous and damaging because reasonable people find it difficult to imagine and understand unreasonable behavior. An intelligent person may understand the logic of a bandit. The bandit’s actions follow a pattern of rationality: nasty rationality, if you like, but still rationality. The bandit wants a plus on his account. Since he is not intelligent enough to devise ways of obtaining the plus as well as providing you with a plus, he will produce his plus by causing a minus to appear on your account. All this is bad, but it is rational and if you are rational you can predict it. You can foresee a bandit’s actions, his nasty maneuvres and ugly aspirations and often can build up your defenses.
With a stupid person all this is absolutely impossible as explained by the Third Basic Law. A stupid creature will harass you for no reason, for no advantage, without any plan or scheme and at the most improbable times and places. You have no rational way of telling if and when and how and why the stupid creature attacks. When confronted with a stupid individual you are completely at his mercy.
All of which leads us to:
Law 4: Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places and under any circumstances to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
We underestimate the stupid, and we do so at our own peril. This brings us to the fifth and final law:
Law 5: A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.
And its corollary:
A stupid person is more dangerous than a bandit.
We can do nothing about the stupid. The difference between societies that collapse under the weight of their stupid citizens and those who transcend them are the makeup of the non-stupid. Those progressing in spite of their stupid possess a high proportion of people acting intelligently, those who counterbalance the stupid’s losses by bringing about gains for themselves and their fellows.
Declining societies have the same percentage of stupid people as successful ones. But they also have high percentages of helpless people and, Cipolla writes, “an alarming proliferation of the bandits with overtones of stupidity.”
“Such change in the composition of the non-stupid population inevitably strengthens the destructive power of the [stupid] fraction and makes decline a certainty,” Cipolla concludes. “And the country goes to Hell.”
