Come on down.. I'll take it!
Ok, so I really don't drink beer, but I have gotten to know the Captain pretty well lately! Captain Morgan and Diet Coke or Crown Royal and Mountain Dew will work.
Did anyone notice Arlofsky's sponsor fo rthe night???? CONDOM DEPOT! Too funny!
Oh well. I need another drink.
Yes, I liked his letter back. He could have ignored my email. People mark for the boss man..
Just back up the truck load and we'll be even...
No problem with that right? I share!
I so look forward to that payback... I won't collect till we run! Deal????
SANDY RESPONDS!
This just in... While watching UFC on tape delay (Had to watch NASCAR) I was editing underwater pictures I took this evening and my email alert popped up....
I never expected a response so quickly...
Here it is...

Dear Photog:
Thank you for the email and the information, I really do appreciate all your feedback.
I am sorry that you went though that, but every black cloud has a silver lining.........I will email this gentlemen on Monday and see what we can do.
I will let you know when I have emailed him with the information.
Thank you for your very generous offers to help, I may just take you up on them.
Regards,
Sandy
At least he is listening. That is very reassuring... Will let you know what I hear as I hear it..
Nope. Sent him a letter telling him how disappointed I was that NONE of the programming execs knew anything about TFN. I also game him a name to follow up on if he wants to. The name I gave him will in turn send out the information to the rest at the touney. These guys were excited about the chance to be the first to bring it to the US.
Guess we'll have to wait and see. I'll let you know if I hear anything from either side.
Very Disappointing day today fellas... I shot a charity golf tourney today that was sponsored by one of the bigger cable companies in South Florida. I went to every foursome to take pictures and spoke with several different people that were in charge of programming for differnt cable companies throughout the state of Florida. Several of these guys are huge UFC fans... One out of about 15 of these programming execs had any clue what TFN was or what they do. They know now but it was very disheartening that they had NOT EVEN HEARD of TFN!
Oh well. Such is life I guess.
Gonna drop Sandy a note and pass on some names of guys that requested info on it because they were very interested!
Guess his reaction to it will make or break the day.
That's all South Florida is Rob..
Where's that email????
Whats this crap you have to pay to post on your board???? What a croc! Oh well.. I tried!
Nothing I can do about that.. Guess someday you'll have to email me.... so I can send some pics..
5000 posts??? How many are yours? Bet most are ramblings from Ranzy! :) better there than here I guess! At least his gun will be welcome there!
So my brother, when is this gonna run???
Let me know.. Place your bets!
I don't even know how to respond to that other than to say I'm telling Mom! She always said I was better than you even though Dad said you were a better kisser than Mom!
I don't care about Jerome... sis swears I am bigger than you and that's all that matters! I'll tell you what.. she's gonna be more jealous than I Mom, that's for sure!
With all the money you are gonna make from BKMP you can get some help! :) You sure are gonna need it! :)
Awwww.. You guys gonna kiss or what?? 12, your wife is gonna get jealous!
63 dang! Wow... Hope I live that long! :)
Can tell by this post how boring it is around here these days!
Can't wait to yell May Day!
Just hope its not a let down and that I don't haveto wait till I turn 63 for BKMP to make money!
FYI... I people marked both of you.
pretty big assumption there HG... Probably close to what is going on but to lay it out there like that.... pretty ballsy..
Neal, I do believe, to quote a famous hotchick, "you are dead on balls accurate!" I can live with that scenario! That sure would be nice!
That blond is sooooo hot! I'm going to find her and that girl Lurky use to have after we get filthy rich off BKMP!
It has to be something with the buyback. What other explanation can it be?
Someone owns a ton of this stock and is letting the company buy it back low.
A PR in the next week about the buyback will confirm this. JMO of course..
AMEN Brother!
I'm telling you.. Buy more!!! With all of the news coming out, its only a matter of time! Something big is going to happen! I can't wait!
Hey 12.. You should have mail!
Post of the day Virginian! Thanks.
Just got in and have been catching up on my email. That tax thing was the first I got to and I posted it asap cause I knew you guys would love it.
Yes, now I can put a name and face to the post! I am going to pull up your pictures tomorrow and spend the time on them that that wonderful email deserves.
I have to do a Career Day tomorrow. That should be fun.
Hope this stock surprises me for a change and runs before the 1st.
Cosmo mentioned something about Don King. My buddy (a guy I worked at WPTV with) works for him up the street off 95. I will call him in the am to see if anything is brewing with him.
Expect an email from me tomorrow.
Thanks
Hey Guys and Gals...
Here is something I thought you all would find interesting.. Remember this when we are all rich and famous!
Subject: Fw: Tax system
Tax system
Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100.
If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
So, that's what they decided to do.
The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until on day, the owner threw them a curve.
"Since you are all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20."Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.
The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone! would get his 'fair share?'
They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer.
So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the sa me amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.
And so:
The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings).
The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28%savings).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).
Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings.
"I only got a dollar! out of the $20,"declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man," but he got $10!"
"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got TEN times more than I!"
"That's true!!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!"
"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!"
The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn't have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill!
And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For democrats no explanation is possible.
Thnaks pal. Your words are very kind.
I'm more concerned about your wife. I hope your nursing skills are better than your - or what I assume your photography skills are! LOL Humor cures all doesn't it???
Just shot some underwater pictures for the kids at Pembroke Pines Swim Team.. What a blast! What a beautiful day.. To all of you stuck in that nasty storm, please be safe...
12, I look forward to your pics. I'm sure they will be just fine. When you send me your email I'll send you a great Miami Skyline shot you can blow up for the wall.
Once BKMP takes off, we can travel and I'll teach you anything you wish to learn (as much or little as I know anyway!)
I'll say some prayers for your wife.
Talk to you soon.
Have a great weekend.
Hope she is doing well my friend. It is killing me trying to figure out who you are! I know we have crossed paths before!
Hey, by the way... where are my pictures????
Hope all is well. Interesting riddle.
Thats a mighty big draw for White to lose just to satisfy his hatred for Tito... But if Tito is too big for his britches, it was a great way to nail his coffin shut or at least clip his ears back.... Guess we'll find out in time. It may buy White time so Tito can't fight Randy until Randy's contract is up.
Could get real interesting.
Yes, I agree,,, White is Don King without hair!
wonder what Tito's side of the story is!
Dana's got the NSAC in his back pocket. If he hates Tito as much as he says, he could have set him up and now they may take his lisc. Then Tito can't fight at all! That would be interesting. Can't believe I watched that whole show for no reason... Except to hate Tito even more than I already did.
At least White slimmed his fat ass down! Not a big fan of his either... But he is great at what he does.
Gotta give him credit there...
Only if you are sure you can handle it.. Don't spend it all in one place....
Give me a break... if you can't look at what TFN has accomplished in the past year and realize where it is headed, then you are going to need your $200 so you might want to hold off on that investment!
What a Homer!
Tito vs Dana on Spike right now!
What ever happened to forgive and forget? That team is just as guilty as being a bunch of losers as he is! They could have taken that whole negative situation and turn it into a positive... As popular as Imus was he could have used his powers for good and done plenty of community service to educate people on racism and all that... Those girls could have risen above his dumb ass comments and said, you know what, he was wrong and he's being punished. he could donate to their pocketbooks or get his sponsors to give them discounted cars (that he could pay for) or whatever to make up for his stupidity... and that team could have come out of this on the moral highroad but as it stands they just lived up to his expectations of them! In the end it was just a bunch of words that they listen to everyday on their IPods. Rappers rapping about degrading women a hell of a lot worse than what Imus said! They never bitched about those words did they? What Imus said was wrong.. no question... however, it wasn't bad enough to end his career... or anyone's career...
Give me a break.. People say worse than that here on IHUb and people just blow it off. What is this world coming to???
Maybe we should put them in the ring after Tito and Dana tonight! All of them vs. Imus and his manager in a tag team free for all! The girls get to keep the PPV proceeds! I know,,, its free on Spike! Get it???
Thanks AT.. I'll try that. I'm with them too!
You will b e rewarded Mary. Hang in there! Its gonna happen... Like death and taxes!
I think Sandy and Mike have played this just right. Let the pressure build until they have to make a great deal because of the demand! It will pay off for you and all of us!
I have a standing order in for 10 million at .0002 and it never fills. I think only "special" people get filled at .0002! Good luck!
But you are right... make the money while you can. Load up for the run. It keeps the volume moooooooving (flowing) and the stock from becoming stagnant.
Good luck. Let me know how it turns out for you!
He and I both Bax!
Hey Moo.. Sex sells. We figure that is we keep kissin his ass we can continue to flip ever few bumps and we can keep making money! That way we keep him around! He's made me plenty of money so I don't mind kissin ass to make cash! Keeps the wife kissin my ass!
We're coming America and we know you are ready to Rumble 24/7, so thank you as well for all your interest and support.
Gotta love it! Is he trying to tell us something????
Barnes... That is the funniest thing I have heard on this board in a long time! Thanks for the laugh! You are welcome LI!
I will BOLO for those ads. I can't wait to see TFN programming here! Great work!
Han, I got ya... I watch Spike all of the time... I didn't see that ad but I'm not saying it didn't happen. The board asked that we send an email to DTV so I did. No disrespect to you intended... Just did it because they asked. I didn't expect a reply so fast...
Wish BKMP responded so fast...

Details: Does or will DirecTV have The Fight Network on its lineup? Is it possible to get TFN anytime soon?
LI.. I just don't think that is a possibility.. I don't think anyone else could make that connection either, that's why no one responded. If you lived on this board through that whole ordeal, when AT investigated him and outed his personal info and the whole mess, you would feel different. He is an investor - maybe a day trader who likes to make money - who gets lots of attention on these boards... but I don't think he is working for the mms. He seems to know a lot about where TFN and BKMP before the general public but that may be good DD... I guess anything is possible, but I just can't make that connection. My guess would be closer to him working with Sandy and company and buyback deals before I see him working with MM's. JMO but you asked.
What part of Florida????
Han, what part of Fl are you in?
I have DTV in South Fl but haven't seen the ad. I sure would like to but I don't think DTV will carry TFN without Sandy and company knowing about it. Sure hope I'm wrong about that and that DTV has it in the schedule for May sweeps! That would be awesome!
