I've noticed some little feathers growing on my upper arms... Boy, this is great! I'll be able to fly by the end of the year.

uh, what about the stock? What a bunch of douchebags... The internet has become the CB radio of the 21st century - every two-bit babbling imbecile has a public forum. How on earth does anyone as stupid acting as Munday, etc., get together enough money to pay the rent, let alone invest in stock? Tell me these guys inherited.

Well, there's another tax deduction

I'm not a business analyst, and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn last night. But when I read this company's PRs, what I see is a bunch of suits around a shiny boardroom table making meaningless little arrangements that are akin to kids with paper and scissors, cutting out paper tigers.

In stock now! Special formula Vaseline - manufactured right here in the USA, no FCC approval required. A soothing balm for all those poor saps who invested their trust and money in iBIZ and Future Felon of America Ken Schilling.

Okay, someone remind me: why are we holding this loser? The CEO, a Future Felon of America, continues to flood the market with paper while his chief minion dumps prodigious quantities of shares at an alarming rate. This sucker's fixing to wander out into the desert and die, isn't it?

well, so much for the wild run-up on the PR... looks like I'm back to my dinghy. dragon, what are you going to do with your .0002/share?

Is that those nice big Alaska King Crab? mmm-mmm. Okay, well, this run-up is gonna buy me a Hinckley 52. I'll need 8 feet clear at low tide for anchorage - is this a problem? I don't know what dragon will be arriving in.

Hey Jim, me'n'dragon plan to retire on the inevitable flood of profits from this stock... When I get my check, I'll buy a nice yacht in Anacortez and tie it up on your island. Want me to bring some lobster and a nice wine, or are you well stocked?

HOT UPDATE! The ocean front property in Kansas City that I've had on the market for a year sold today at the top of the market! Drinks are on me! Someone call me a cab, I'm heading to the pub!

u pump, I dump

Load me up with Becks, thank you.

hasta la vista, investment. I'm thinking the value of this stock is like a revenue agent going into the woods looking for a whiskey still: he ain't coming back.

HI, my name is Ellissa, I work for "Ibiz." I'm wearing a short leather skirt and a tight little top. Wouldn't you like to play with me? Do you want me to be your "Virtual Keyboard"? You can have your hands all over me baby oooh thats goooood yeah baby

eh?

Jim, them Wooly Boogers are good eating, too. mmm mmmmm

Isn't that a coincidence? I plan to start shipping my Easy Home Teleporter on that very same date! Look! Monkeys are flying past my 12th floor window again! Tarzan? Is that you, Tarzan?

Whatever. I bet I could get a feature story in the Billings Gazette lol... "Mable Smith of Pine Grove Road called police from the new Telephone at the General Store to report that she had found a dead chipmunk in her yard Tuesday morning. Sheriff Harry Leggs has assigned his entire staff to the investigation and vows to bring the murderer to justice."

Uh, ship date for VKB has been bumped out to 4/15 now. Meanwhile, monkeys are flying past my 12th floor window and I'm selling Kansas City ocean-front property like crazy.

Let's go to the phones on this one...

Stock trading ain't doing it for me. Think I'll try haiku:

Canyon sightseer
New digital camera
Failed grip, misfortune

or one H2, an Escalade, a couple of jet skis, and a five year old Hinckley 52 Southwester.

That's about the price of a loaded H2. A guy NEEDS an H2. How can you hold this against him?

Jim, when you make your runs to "Cuber" (per JFK), do you lock through the Canal or round the Cape? ;-p

I'm gonna be in Idaho in July, maybe I'll come score some goods off'n you...

Ha, figured it out Jim, I thought 48N sounded familiar. Love your neck of the woods. I chartered out of Bellingham in '96 and sailed up into your waters chasing a pod of Orcas. Splendid just splendid. I may have anchored off your island for all we know, we were there four days/nights.

*cough* bullsh*t

Who is Enterprise?

a little unsolicited advice: Those of you who spent eight hours Sunday afternoon arguing with that illiterate Rocketred character aren't doing much to support the credibility of this board. I'm sorry you didn't have anything more constructive to do with a Sunday afternoon - maybe you could get a hobby?

criminy, almost a billion shares Friday. Anyone make any decent bank?

Fasten your seatbelts kids

I'm long on it, holding it all.

One of you wizards must have a name for today's price increase. Come on, impress me.

that's gross receipts too, which is troubling. We're investing in a company with lower revenues that I had when I was building spec houses one at a time, with one employee. Maybe I should go public.

So, Jim, you're suggesting the stuff Yahoo publishes actually impacts the corporate world? I always thought of that sort of stuff as the equivalent of a dog barking in a fenced backyard two blocks down the street. Maybe you hear it but it really doesn't have any significance. You know, would a conscientious investor lend any credence to a medium which also is a major host of porn chat rooms?

oh. hmmm. I thought it had something to do with Martha Stewart.

bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahaha *cough*

;-p I do what I can...

"Pritty sad if you think Reagis is you only hope for this to some how go up. Investing in hope is how you loose money"

Let's try that again: "PRETTY sad if you think REGIS is YOUR only hope for this to SOMEHOW go up. Investing in hope is how you LOSE money."

So, that would be -5 for spelling in a sentence that appears to have been constructed by a 6-year-old; I'm not even going to address the grammar. But I am going to ignore your stock trading opinions. Run along now mikey, go have some cereal.

ADOT: Not much news. Any notions?

thanks for the pump Jess

*cough*
