Fooled by what?!
Good nite and good luck to all! Tomorrow should be very interesting.
I respect what you have to say, and I do get it. I just think that there will be newbies that get caught up. We've all been newbs at one time or another. I sincerely hope it works out for all, INCLUDING ME. I'd be very happy for Parilla to show everyone and stick .12 on all my shares. Take care Byker...I really am not callous!
Let me see if I have this right. You want to recover some of your losses? From who? Parilla?
Seriously? I'm not a big holder, but I'm damn tired of what appears to be criminal activity in this companies long lineage. If what is being said is true, then I want the SEC to know my feelings and perhaps the end of this run will save the next guy. I did not offer anything out of emotion, meanness or any other reason. I simply sent a PR that was misleading from the past. You are really that wrapped up in your self recovery than having all the facts on the table?
Rip,
I sent a couple of PM's to you. I'd like to know if you got them, and if you can reply. I believe that I may be able to authenticate the authenticity of any email.
DONE. Forwarded directly to her what I feel is pertinent information to establish a pattern of conduct. Thank you.
Do you have direct email to Elisha Frank? I'll send her what I sent to the general email.
Someone gave the solution earlier. If you have pertinent information on FRTD/Tom Parilla or any predecessor, I suggest you email Miami@Sec.Gov . I have put my two cents in today.
No need to worry, hell he guaranteed you .12 on the podcast. You are golden!
here here!
I have communicated with TP in the past, and I can assure you that the account that it comes from is NOT labeled TP. My guess is he has one or several aliases. T-Do, can you confirm the same?
God that is funny. I have told my wife about all my wins in penny land, and she must wonder why I haven't retired yet! My guess is our wives are probably on to us, and those like us!
THAT is a very very interesting comment. Scroll back to the days before the suspension. I have a feeling of a few that I suspect as insiders and they are mysteriously missing now. Big posters became non posters.
HA! How many spouses actually know of the husband/wife penny addictions?
I sure hope nothing happens to him!~ Damn, each of you would be questioned for sure pulling up addresses. It all looks very bleak and I wish it didn't. I'm a shareholder.
Valid point.
OUCH!!! 2's just got moved!
Maybe he and Stanton can be cellies! I have a few other names I'll keep to myself that I bet are shredding like a wild man right now. Trouble is these days, everyone emails.....good luck getting that to disappear.
How are you so certain? Boy I sure hope so as I have some skin in the game.
From Parilla? Man, that would be sooooo dangerous for him to open his mouth anymore. Every word at this point will be scrutinised, and even a slip up could be a recipe for striped clothing.
I'm not so sure. His attorney may have him under a strict gag order at this point. Updates vs. Avoiding Prison. I think that the latter will win every time.
I hate to say this, but PLEASE don't run until Monday! Lots of powder available Monday....
Has anyone mentioned this below about EAST COAST NATIVE AMERICAN NATION? Note that this PR was hours before the SEC suspension:

How ya like them apples? Quite creative isn't it?
Let's see if this looks somewhat familiar to what is going on today. They just happened to forget to mention something in a PR like the dividends would be restricted. It appears that the pattern continues.
12/12/10
CEO Norman Birmingham along with President Thomas Parilla, are pleased to take this opportunity to thank RNDR shareholders, by providing them with this 10% dividend. Mr. Birmingham was quoted as saying, “We are thankful as a company that we are in a position to be able to show our appreciation to our shareholders. Mr. Parilla and I further agree that it would be in the best interest of our shareholders to provide them with this dividend sooner rather than later. As the uncertainty of the US tax code and the subsequent increase of taxation pertaining to dividend income appears to be inevitable in 2013.“

Do you really think jail? What is the SEC history on this if fraud is proven?
I hope a miracle comes of this for the sake of the shareholders. I'm fine but I'm sure some are sweating it.
IF there is fraud involved here, would past conduct be relevant like the restricted shares? Also, it sounds like you have a great deal of experience. If the SEC shuts this down, would the shareholders only recourse be litigation? Do you think Parilla should be concerned about jail time IF foul play is proven?
I am balls deep in here with you. Hope you are right!
Not so sure. It would appear that NITE is happy turning 3's to 4's every day. That huge ask on 4 has to disappear.
2 from the 3, carry the 1, divide by 2/3 and funny math = that number.
HAHAHHAHHAHA
That would be great! Would this apply to restricted shares as well held by Parilla and others?
I guess I'm going to have to call the US Attorneys and see if I can confirm. Next couple of days will be interesting. Parilla has to put something out to stop the bleeding, and at the same time every single word will be scrutinised by SEC. It would make sense like someone suggested this morning that the acquiring company make a statement. This would prevent further exposure by Parilla. Can't wait. If you were Parilla's counsel what would you advise? Cooperate and keep your mouth shut, or save your company and share value?
It would appear that you have a valid argument. Perhaps you should represent Parilla and educate the SEC on this?
Thanks but all I see is your interpretation. You are obviously schooled in this but please provide me the exact language of the law that says you are right. This is very interesting and I want to fully understand it. Thanks for the education. I intend on relying upon your research since you are certain when I decide whether to continue investing in this company.
Does anyone know if Tom Parilla is related to Todd Parilla? Or Lyndon Parilla?
The federal Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2510 et seq., prohibits the willful interception of telephone communication by means of any electronic, mechanical, or other device without an applicable exemption. There are two principal exceptions:
Federal Exceptions
Consent: In the absence of more restrictive state law, it is permissible to intercept and record a telephone conversation if one or both of the parties to the call consents. Consent means authorization by only one participant in the call; single-party consent is provided for by specific statutory exemption under federal law. 18 U.S.C. Sec. 2511(2)(d).
"Business telephone" exception
The "business telephone" exception, which generally allows monitoring of calls and taping over an extension phone which is both provided to a subscriber in the ordinary course of a telephone company's business and is being used by that subscriber in the ordinary course of its business. This provision generally permits businesses to monitor the conversations of their employees, including personal conversations.
Penalties: The federal statutes provide criminal penalties for unlawful interception of telephone conversations, including up to five years' imprisonment or a maximum of $10,000 in fines. They also allow for civil remedies, by which private parties are entitled to recover actual and punitive damages, together with fees and costs.
