OT -- Some even funnier stuff than the Elbee debacle:
http://www.jibjab.com/thisland.html
I have a piece of cheese on my tongue and am waiting with "baited" breath for the new Prez to share his insight with us. What's the Over/Under on the "Insight" speech?
Elbee Smackdown! lol
Talk about agendas -- the Horned One talking about agendas? That will be the chuckle of the day.
Was perusing the RB board and came across the following by "oregonluvr". This particular post bears posting here.

How one of the scams works:
Balak sends ten million plus shares of Power to off-shore accounts which he, or a straw man controls.
After a cooling off period of time, the offshore account registers the stock for sale with the SEC (ie Global Alliance Partners - Switzerland. May 7,2004 SEC Filing).
July 2, 2004 Power issues press release about "Win" in court. "Defendant (AS) ordered to sign patent". Press release comes out in early a.m.
July 2, 2004 Power trades over 2 million shares (when the normal volume is an average below 10 thousand). Balak feeds the market. Although only at 3 to 4 cents, not to worry he has millions more already and could always print more, at least until his "resignation" of July 1, 2004. This is a re-hash of the Wolf Meyerfeld fiasco (for the stockholders)when Balak voted him out and returned to the helm 3 months later. Unfortunately for Balak Meyerfeld is an honest man. If the new president B. Walter is an honest man he may not stay too long. If Walter turns out to be a Balak clone, expect to see him embroiled in the courts.
July 2, 2004. Power issues a retraction of its a.m. press release in its entirety. Evidently a very angry judge saw the light and not only did not force AS to sign the disputed patent application but dismissed in its entirety all the other Power claims for injunctions, etc. AS is free to do anything until the matter is resolved in the October trial. Incidentally, the October trial will probably be heard by the same judge. SCORE: AS 1 : LB Minus 0.
Unfortunately, during the 6 hours between the first press release and the retraction of same enabled Global (Balak) to pocket some bucks. It is curious that the broker handling the deal, Golden Capital Securities in Vancouver, has a number of Balak accounts under different names. It is somewhat unusual for a Swiss shareholder company to sell its shareholdings in Power at a very small brokerage that Balak deals with and is located in the same building in Vancouver where Balak had an office up until the time he moved the Power corporate offices into his basement at home. The money he charged to Power for rent helps with the mortgage payments.
An axiom in law enforcement is "Follow the Money".
Just gave a call to the author of the PR(?) regarding the new CEO. Told them I wished to get in touch with him. Mr. King is out of state, I am told, but they would get back to me with the information. Once I have it, you can be sure I'll share it. I'm sure Mr. Walter would be pleased as punch to speak with some of the people propping up his "company".
Sure do wish our new CEO would put something out that "shares his vision" as to the massive sell-off going on.
In the words of Frank Barone -- Holy Crap. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water, along comes another mountebank -- full of wind and no substance. Maybe you don't want to "X" him out, Hasher, but I could make it my life's work.
It's tough enough living in the People's Republic of Massachusetts, now I gotta find out that Hasher's NOT a Republican? Sheesh. Well, he loves cats, so he can't be all bad.
Serially, let's all hope that the run on our stock friday was Elbee's swan song and that he's caught at the airport while boarding a plane for Bolivia.
The punk!
Holy crap! Shoulda looked at the end-of-day-volume before posting. This sell-off has got to cease! We are sitting on the sideline, watching the rape of what should have been a perfectly good company!
lol -- I'm an excellent driver, buy my underwear at K-Mart and never miss Wapner.
I understand the Korean Patent application time limit has expired. Onward and upward.
Wonder where all the volume went. He can't be finished already?
Big Tex in the slammer! That is funny. What's funnier is that he says he doesn't know why he's there. His post #5399 is probably what did him in.
Yes, e-Y was the bearer of that info.
rooster: That last trade was a double-print. I'm told that signifies trading between MM's.
I agree, rooster. From you side of the fence, it would make no sense. From my side of the fence, it makes absolutely perfect sense. One thing for absolutely certain -- somethin's gonna happen -- and real soon, I'll betcha.
rooster, actually, the broker doing just about all of the selling just happens to be (gasp) Elbee's, I am told. Thank God there's somebody doing some buying or we'd be in the ditch so far you'd have to feed us with a slingshot.
rooster, I've tried to come up with Mr. Walter's phone number. You wouldn't happen to have it, would you? I've read and re-read that News Release which promotes him as our new CEO and find it maybe a little ambiguous insofar as his still being a lawyer is concerned. If he is no longer a lawyer, the red flags should start shooting up. If he IS still a lawyer, he'll be able to clear up the books situation fairly quickly, I would assume.
Anyway, he says he wants to share his vision with us. I'm ready to partake in that seance.
rooster: You said: "the result does bring damage to the progress and name
of this Company."
All it would take would be one miniscule step forward by the new CEO, and all the sarcasm and pessimism goes away. But, thus far, all that's going on is dumping and diluting.
As far as someone wanting to invest in this outfit, what worthy information is out there to make them wish to do something that foolish? What PR's have been disseminated to prod the masses into a feeding frenzy of Elbee's shares? AND, if there WAS a parcel of good news on the horizon, why would the great one be dumping?
Sure do wish the new CEO would trickle out something for us to get our teeth into.
Sure do wish he would get his hands on those books.
Sure do wish the microdry certificates get mailed soon.
Sure hope Pipelink lives up to its "cash cow" hype.
Greek -- he's here because, basically, this is HIS board. Started by him, ruled by him. It is, by no means, a democracy here -- although democracy and decency is still the word of the day.
Old friend (and I DO mean that), you are 100% correct when you assert that I've taken part in the hate here. Myself and just about everyone else here are pretty gutteral when it comes to losing a pile of dough at the hands of an incompetent. If you'll recall, it was I who raised the red flag maybe 4 years ago when I bailed out of the OBC, a friendly little group of (at the time) happy investors. It was I who formed that group but could not stand by it once the cardinal rule (thou shalt not bad-mouth the company) couldn't be kept and the reason it couldn't be kept was then and is now -- Elbee.
We came so verrryyy close to having something finally going for us when Wolf took over the reins but that was queered by you-know-who.
All Elbee had to do was produce one -- just ONE -- verifiable deal in the past 6 years and this site would be nothing but happy campers. ONE!
Now we've got ourselves a new CEO and I wish him all the luck in the world. If this dude is as sharp as his press clippings suggest, he simply ain't gonna last. If he gets his hands on the books, he ain't gonna stick. If he checks into the placement of the monies sent to the company, he'll either get to the bottom of the apparent inconsistencies, bail out or go along with them. AND, if he goes along with any of it without doing some damned deep digging, he won't be a bit better than old leather breeches.
Hasher simply ain't the problem, rooster. Snaper might be holding things up as best he can but I'll wager anybody here in the same circumstance would do the same. Snaper finally had the light turn on in his gourd and saw the lunacy going on around him.
I wish to hell he had seen what I saw 4 years ago.
Gotta tell you, rooster, your rantings are worse than Hoggboy, Paybar and e-Yiorgos rolled into one. I've defended you and your son many times over the years from punk attacks, but you're really inviting them to happen -- wholesale -- these days. If you'd clam up for a while, I'll bet half the traffic here would go away -- including that which "libels" panty-boy.
Best regards
Does anybodt happen to know if the new HMFIC, President of a publicly owned company, has a company telephone number?
Hasher, that's probably the way they do things in his country. He's a PROUD horse, you know.
An open suggestion to our new Pres/CEO:
Sir:
Welcome aboard. Hope you are able to pull this once much anticipated company from the depths it has fallen. As Pres/CEO, you should be entitled to all the books and records of the past 6+ years. Further, as a lawyer, you should be able to recognize a misdeed when you see it. If Balak hasn't relinquished those records yet, I would respectfully ask that you obtain and peruse them at your leisure. There is anecdotal evidence to suggest that several payments made to the company won't be found in the official books. As our President, I would think you would want to get to the bottom of any potentially litigious situation as soon as possible.
Very Truly Yours,
Robert Lamb
Thanks much, Edfrank -- much apprreciated.
mlf: Another two bits says that as soon as the lawsuit "unpleasantness" ceases to exist, if there's any company to head, the lawyer steps down to get back to his practice full time and LB (L for Lazarus) is reinstated.
I'm tickled pink that the ship ----errrrr .. BOAT has another rudder, but this guy's background might be impressive within the legal arena, but as far as industry is concerned? Ran a Google and found nothing. I suspect that if there's anything to find, Edfrank'll find it, though.
Yeah, rooster, today's news really put Hasher in his place, huh? How, I might ask?
Smart move having an Atty. as CEO to litigate the lawsuits against the Co. That way, Elbee won't have to show up in Nevada where the law is awaiting him. The civil suit is something else again, however.
Maybe the "News" release stating that Lying Bastard has resigned as pres. is the next one to be rescinded in its entirety.
Maybe this whole freaking week is just another dream sequence ala Bobby Ewing.
Maybe my hair will stop hurting when I read Peep/Catchet's posts. Lol.
Maybe by the time the kilts come out, there won't be anybody alive to wear them.
Anybody suppose Elbee wears leather kilts?
Maybe the Red Sox will beat New York to get into the World Series.
Wonder whose "hockey stick" is limp today. Two or three days until that release comes out again? I'll bet not, but I'll further bet that is what was out of Elbee's mouth so, therefore, it is revered as gospel by some.
Where's the new president?
One would normally figure that a stock that normally trades between 50 and 100k a day would have at least gone up a flippin' PENNY on over 1.5 mil traded today. Couldn't be a case of dump/dilute/dump/dilute by our friend and maybe some of HIS friends, could it? Hmmmmmmmmmm.
Patent app. in Korea -- hell we don't even have a freaking president!
Anybody suppose ol' lace breeches resigned in anticipation of a negative ruling by the court? Didn't do so without printing up a whole crapload of paper first, though.
You can BET that whoever the new "pres" is, he'll have more strings than flub-a-dub.
mlf: Some people are SO excited that one might wonder if, perhaps, there might be some remuneration in the form of shares available to them by a party in whose interest their excitement might aid???
I can't remember having seen so much flip-flopping since the last time John Kerry opened his yap!
So today is Elbee Independence Day. In this envelope, sealed and placed in a mayonnaise jar and buried in a time capsule until this very day, is the name of the new Pres/CEO. Rip, rip, poof, rustle. And the name of the successor IS -- wait a minute, this paper is BLANK! Oh no! Not ANOTHER Elbee flim-flam!
May the fleas of 1000 camels infest your new leather shorts, Elbee.
Tomorrow being Friday, maybe we can look forward to another of his drunken rants. That'd be icing on the Independence Day cake.
Seems to me that if this "resignation" doesn't produce another CEO very shortly, the stage should be set for AS or WM to return? Hell, that scenario alone would juice the stock up AT LEAST 0.005 cents.
Let the Lying Bastard dump all his shares -- let the price run all the way down to a tenth of a penny. Once he's all the way out, it'll rebound with a flourish is my guess.
Damn, I want to be there when this putz is thrown back into jail so far you have to feed him with a slingshot!
After reading that drunken, ragtime diatribe from our friend, is it any wonder this "company" is in the straights that it is in?
I see the little fella addressed everyone's concerns complete with little backhanded insults to boot. Classy.
Maybe he was under some other kind of duress -- like maybe he pissed himself and his leather pants shrunk -- couldn't get 'em off.
I notice he didn't address the "mikroDri" certificate question.
In the words of Bugs Bunny -- "What a maroon."
How about a walk down memory lane, guys. Remember the MikroDri (sp?) project and the 330 people who ponied up $100 each for "certificates" that were never delivered? Gasp! You don't suppose........nah.....Elbee COULDN'T have pocketed that dough to keep gas in the Ferrari. (I'm told that insurance for that baby was a real bugbear too). He absolutely COULDN'T have showered his girlfriend with some more bling bling with that money -- could he? At some point in time, THAT chicken should come home to roost in a court of law as well. Matter of fact, I happen to know that there's a floppy disk available with the names and addresses of all the contributors to that worthy cause. Most of them probably don't read this or RB any more, but I'll bet they'd LOVE to be part of the lawsuit.
Just a'thinkin'.
I've heard anectdotes to the effect that old Elbee wasn't beneath writing the name of a stock down on a matchbook and then leaving the matches on the bar -- hoping somebody would pick it up and think they fell into a secret stock ready for launch. lol. Again, that is strictly anecdotal, but I can see the punk doing it. (A whole lot like dressing up like a CEO and visiting the local Powertec thread on Ihub) lol
hasher: I want to thank you for answering those questions. I'm sure there is considerably more that could be added but I think we all have the picture.
I find it comical as hell that I got my wrist slapped for inadvertantly doing a "free ride" with my broker recently which is a strict "no-no" with the SEC and yet they (the SEC) will permit scum like this to operate what's left of a company and manipulate it to suit himself -- totally at the expense of the shareholders.
I'm going out this AM to buy me a Slinky -- justto see it fall down the stairs.
Big Tex:
Got to tell you, buckaroo, that I think you're aiming those big shiney pistols of yours at the wrong targets. Personally, I don't feel as if logman, rooster or hasher should, in any way, be criticized for their roles in this debacle. When the day comes that the fat lady sings, logman and rooster will probably lose more than a great deal of us put together. As far as hasher is concerned, he was an employee of sorts with the company and was told what to feed to the masses, which he did. BUT, it was always with the proviso that you had to consider the real source. Now, he's a disgruntled ex-employee and isn't shy in the least about castrating the target you SHOULD be aiming at.
In short, I and probably a lot more people here would appreciate it if you'd quit slamming the wrong folks. They haven't done dick to hurt you and probably hurt themselves fairly egregiously.
TIA

Post 5332: Catchet, right on! (Did you need a bag to "de-hyper-

Post 5333: mlf -- accurate as always.
Post 5339: Hasher, you go, boy. Not so sure Peggy is e-Y, but
decidedly has nothing to add.
to all of labs posts please learn a little common punctuation it makes your bs easier to read and understand capitalization is kewl too it separates sentences usually commas are neat as they give the reader a chance to pause in the middle of the bs periods are optional
Well, hasher, it is certainly a breath of fresh air hearing from you again -- especially without the albatross around your neck in the form of money owed you by Elbee.
"lab" has himself a very distincy "writing" style that is pretty darned hard to miss. Hell, Ray Charles could see who was behind those posts. I doubt seriously if we'll hear from him again, especially with your monitoring his pap and counterbalancing it with what is probably a whole lot more accurate (as well as entertaining).
Word!
