the huge increase in vol over the past 3 days
was pretty obviously not brought brought about
by the PR's message ...
the spam fax that was sent out(and I have not seen it)
to as far away as the WEST Coast(a friend said he got
one at his business) brought an enormous cache of
fresh meat (I mean new investors) to the grasslands
of the Serengetti for the Lions and Cheetahs ...
if you look at the candlestick chart Link below it displays
3 gap up days (gaps are most often retraced to and filled)
with Fridays mkt activity (dark candle) closing lower .23
than the open .2375 ...
http://www.candlestickchart.com/cgi/chart.cgi?symbol=erug&Submit=Analyze
so I would expect some very normal profit taking next
week to fill the gaps (.17-.20) & (.21-.23) and short
timers taking their nickels to Mickey D's and Burger King
but you never know with the craziness of the mkt
the trades were hundreds of small bets 1-20K instead of
larger blocks (50-100K's) placed by bigger players
or institutional traders ... have a great weekend !
wholeheartedly agree Tina ... TAMPA center
was actually opened in response to a request
by the insurance providers that work with
ERUG ... financials due by end of JUNE
followed by S-B-2 filing to OTCBB ...
that will open an entirely new and
IMHO stronger list of investors ... GLTA

U.S. Emergency Rooms in Crisis ER Urgent Care Centers to the Rescue
America's Emergency Room crisis has reached epidemic proportions. In a recent report published by the Institute of Medicine it has become apparent that the crisis is far greater than first estimated.
With a population growth of 12% emergency rooms are experiencing 27 percent increase in visits, from 90 million to 114 million. What is worse 425 emergency rooms nationwide have closed, 700 hospitals have closed and 200,000 beds are no more. In addition 50% of all hospitals are losing money. Wait times in some major cities are as high as nine hours. The report also suggested that 22% of accident victim deaths in the emergency rooms were preventable. ER Urgent Care Center is now poised with its national exposure growing to help in the easing of this crisis. With no immediate solution to the problem ER Urgent Care Center is sitting with numerous municipalities and major hospital organizations as part of a think tank to alleviate the problem. Jerry Miller, Founder and Director, said, "We are honored to have been selected to be part of this elite group of organizations within the health industry. Once again ER Urgent Care Center is setting the trend in health care."

news ... ER Urgent Care Centers April Update
MIAMI, FL, Apr 03, 2006 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- During the month of April, ER Urgent Care (OTC: ERUG) will be conducting a massive direct mail campaign. Reaching over 40,000 potential patients we feel that this will add more name recognition to the recent TV ad blitz. The ad entitled "The Coach" was widely viewed in the South Florida area and became a topic of conversation. Patient ID cards will also go into effect this month. Each patient that is treated will receive their very own ER Urgent Care ID card. Upon their next visit with a simple swipe of the card the patient's history will appear on our screens. In addition the patient now has in their wallet or purse a constant personalized reminder of ER Urgent Care Centers. Kansas City is now setting records for patient visits. Even prior to major ad campaigns going into effect we have seen significant increases. Word of mouth as well as the location all has had influence. The major portion of the ad campaigns will go into effect this month. We hope you will come by and visit our clinics and enjoy the tour.

the marketing company was paid with shares ...
by their own disclaimer at the bottom of the

" WSCF has sold approximately Two Hundred and Eighty Thousand shares of ERUG stock as of this press release. WSCF intends to continue selling its shares as this release is being circulated. In 2005, WSCF was compensated for previous services performed for ER Urgent Care Holdings Inc.; for information on that compensation, contact us at info@wallstreetnewsalert.com. "
as of this morning they had sold 280k of them ...
I'm sure they sold more today ... that is what has kept a lid on the share price going up ... by using shares to pay for marketing/press releases ... ERUG doesn't use
their available cash and will post better profit
numbers when they complete financials for 2005 ...
I believe ERUG is using their available shares carefully
and not turning on the printing press whenever they
want cash ... I have traded many pinks that flooded the mkt with paper ... they continue to GROW / open additional centers and improve their profits .. that is why I'm here ... they are keeping to their business plan ...
