I think the decibel level of them, even if several of them are running at the same time in your block, are not likely to cause ear damage.
Phil
You need to wear ear protection when they are running.
No biggie.
Phil
To who ever can, get that stuff out of the iBox please.
I think it would be better to stick to what is true and support that.
Who gets to choose what's true and what isn't?
With a pink sheet stock all posts are simply opinions. There are no verifiable facts.
Phil
It's more like mortar than cement.
But you can pour it on dry out of the bag and it will sink down between the loose gravel and firm it up.
I had a boat shed beside my garage with about 6" of small gravel near the back and the boat wheels would sink in it.
I just poured sand mix on the gravel and raked it in a little and left it.
The moisture in the air caused it to set up.
Phil
I like the back pack blowers.
They make the most noise.
You can hear them for blocks.
LOL

Jackie,
I just got back from my doctors appointment, and although everything seems fine, I still don't know the results of all of the tests they took in the hospital.
The doctor said to come back in four months for a visit, so everything must be going OK.
Now, as to re-seasoning cast iron pots and pans, I never have to because I don't use soap to wash them.
If I don't clean them immediately after using, I put water in them and heat them up and scrape off any food particles and then scrub them with a stainless steel pad and then rinse them out and spread a little oil in them.
I should mention that I don't cook in any kind of pan except cast iron, except I have one stainless steel sauce pan with a glass lid.
That said, I wouldn't hesitate to re-season them if you think they need it.
The fire at camp is fine as long as it's good and hot, but I just use a gas grill out on the deck.
You are right about the smoke if you do it in the house. I only did that once.
Put the pan or pot in the grill or on the fire and get it as hot as you can get it, (with the heat on the bottom) and then throw a scoop or two of lard in it and swoosh it around with a rag tied to the end of a stick. If it catches on fire, cover the pot/pan to put the fire out and wait until it cools enough where it won't catch fire and grease it again. You want it to be hot enough to smoke, but not so hot it catches on fire.
Phil
Kind of like Jared pretended to be an honest Christian, eh?
I wouldn't put it past him to hire a fake lawyer.
Phil
Esq. or Esquire is a title lawyers earn when they graduate from law school and pass the exam they have to pass to practice law.
GOOGle it.
Phil
Try a product available at Lowe's and Home Depot called "sand mix".
It's got some mortar in it and will tighten up the small stones.
It comes dry and you can pour it out, sweep it in, and then either water it to get it to set up or wait until it gets rained on.
Try a few bags first and see if it does what you want it to do.
Phil
My ex-inlaws used to live close by and used to take my wife and kids there when they went to visit.
My youngest daughter, who is the littlest of my kids, was a gymnast, and was tiny and strong, but could eat like a man.
She loves lobsters.
She ate two three pound lobsters there when she was about 12 YO.
Everyone around was amazed she could eat that much.
Phil
The claws are the most tender, and the sweetest part of the lobster.
I'll take the claws over the tails anytime, which is why I'm sure you want them.
You're not going to get lobster claws for anywhere near what you'd pay for blue crabs, so you might as well plan to pay a hefty premium for them.
That said, check out Custy's:
http://www.custys.com/
I don't know if they ship, but they might be able to hook you up with someone that does.
Phil
I stop by every now and then when I have a worthy e-mail to share.
I liked that one too.
Phil
THERE WAS A FIRE IN A HOUSE IN LA.
A Nigerian family of six con artists lived on the first floor, and all six died in the fire.
An Islamic group of seven welfare cheats,
all illegally in the country from Kenya,
lived on the second floor, and they, too, all perished in the fire.
6 LA, Hispanic, Gang Banger, ex-cons,
lived on the 3rd floor and they too, died.
A lone, white couple lived on the top floor.
The couple survived the fire,
Jesse Jackson, John Burris and Al Sharpton were furious.
They flew into LA, met with the fire chief, on camera. They loudly demanded to know why the Blacks, Black Muslims and
Hispanics all died in the fire and only the white couple survived..?
The fire chief said, "They were at work."
Not too much Carlos.
You know I was in the hospital for about a week, right?
Phil
Hello
My statement was my opinion of the stock.
Nothing more, nothing less.
EESO has been proven, IMO, to be a scam and I have suspected it for a long time.
Phil
Certainly we are here to discuss stocks, among other things, but if you are looking at the posts on Ihub as investment advice, you are almost sure to lose money.
Phil
I'm just throwing ideas out there...
And wasting your time too, I might add.
Ihub is a message board.
Not an investment advice website.
Why is that so hard to understand?
Phil
Did you TOS the post?
Looks like they didn't have time to shut down the website so they unplugged the phones:
# The phone system is temporarily down as we make some important updates. It will be up later today. Thank you. wowgreen corp. 37 minutes ago
I think the rules about more than one account from the same residence are:
You can't post on the same board.
You can't post to each other,
And most important, you need to advise admin first.
Phil
I'm pretty sure the person that posed the question wants a board that no one could read without an invitation.
Phil
Exactly what purpose would someone have for admitting publicly he lied to the board participants, and then be lying about lying?
This is getting way too deep for me.
Phil
SOAPY WITH HIS FLOCK OF SHEEP?
It's one thing to lie, but when a well respected member of the Ihub community with over 600 peoplemarks, and the head moderator of one of the most active boards on Ihub, openly admitted he lied to his board members about the stock after it crashed and burned, I agree with Reddog.
The MF needs to be fried.
Phil
Regarding boards where he is an assistant, the mods can remove him if they so choose. Several have done so already.
Great news.
Phil
After publicly admitting he lied to his board participants, what more of an event do you need to remove him from all of his boards?
Phil
I wonder if they freeze dry them?
LOL
Phil
I'm pretty sure the rule is 90 days.
If Soapy comes back, after the SPNG fiasco, I suspect he will have a new account.
Phil
Evidently they don't care for the volatility retail traders would cause.

Update: Grem USA - Just Strummin' Along
Investigative Reports
April 21 2006
Some things never change. Take, for example Grem USA (OTCBB: GRMU), the latest incarnation of a struggling public company that, in the past five years has been known as Premier Axium ASP, Core Solutions, Sunshine Ventures, Christine's Precious Petals and Global Business Markets. By any name, and in the pursuit of a succession of disparate ventures, the Company has been singularly unsuccessful. Ambitious plans to develop an outsourcing business, "smoothies" bars, real estate operations and some sort of floral venture, all failed miserably – except, of course, for the impact that overblown promises, vague press releases and promotional hype may have had on the volume and price of the Company's shares. See Premier Axium ASP, Inc. — 25 Million Reasons; Update: Core Solutions, Inc (f/k/a Premier Axium ASP Inc.) — Only The Name Has Changed; Update: Core Solutions, Inc — Where's The Sunshine?; Update: Global Business Markets - While Investors Gently Weep; and Update: Global Business Markets, Inc. - Baking Up A Storm.
During this time, the Company has had notable associations with several key individuals, including Christine Favara (who has been named in criminal and SEC complaints for her alleged role in stock fraud schemes involving shares of the Company); Stephen Carnes (who has been involved with another pair of over-hyped, non-performing companies, Signature Leisure and Renovo Holdings); and Edward Miers. Miers relationship with the Company has been particularly bumpy. In August 2002, the Company, then called Core Solutions, filed a Form 8-K stating that "[m]anagement has terminated consulting agreements and has discontinued transacting any and all business with Suburban Capital Corporation" and a number of individuals, including Miers. Despite this mandate, Miers later acquired control of the Company from Favara and assumed the position of CEO. See Christine Favara Charged By SEC; Three's Company; Valde Connections, Inc., Part I - Just Styling; Part II - The Time Machine; Part III - In Search of Spa-ing Partners; Fortis Enterprises, Inc. - California Dreamin'; and Update: Global Business Markets, Inc. - Baking Up A Storm.
Most recently, with Miers at the helm, the Company declared plans to manufacture and distribute electric guitars and amplifiers. So far, however, there has been no sweet music for public shareholders, who continue to await the arrival of Grem's first fret board. The Company has yet to produce its first marketable guitar – although it claims that the past three years have been devoted to "the acquisition of design talent, equipment, and a building where Grem could design, manufacture, and ship custom handmade and mass-produced electronic guitars, amplifiers, and accessories".
The Company has no full-time employees, although it does have offices. Grem says it has purchased and moved into a new facility in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. The Company bought the building in late 2005 from Taylor Ventures, LLC in exchange for 273 million restricted shares of Grem common stock. Taylor will receive additional shares if the stock already issued to that entity is not worth at least $300,000 when it becomes eligible for sale.
According to Grem's most recent financial statement, a Form 10-K Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company still has no revenues. Grem has five guitar designs on its drawing board, but nothing set to strum. So what has the Company been doing? It has been retaining consultants – 15 in recent months – and handing them shares of registered stock. What role do these various consultants play in a Company with no operations or revenues? Well, one of them, penny stock pro Stephen Carnes, entered into an oral agreement with the Company in September 2003 that was still in effect in December 2005.
Under that deal – which evidently is worth more than the paper it is not written on - Grem agreed to give Carnes free trading common stock, at the rate of $50,000 a month, in exchange for vague management and consulting services. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had handed Carnes 104 million share of free trading stock, registered on various Forms S-8.
Another 24.5 million shares of stock were registered on Form S-8 for an individual named Gregory M. Reszel, a musician and maker of musical instruments who purportedly has consulted with the Company since February 24, 2004.
The following list of shares issued by the Company and registered for immediate sale on Forms S-8 underscores the Company's generosity to its bevy of consultants:
On August 9, 2005, the Company issued a Form S-8 registering shares that were issued to the following consultants and employees:
Share Recipient Number of Shares
Dennis Nartker 8,000,000
Bernard Woods 30,000,000
Nathan Weides 5,000,000
Gregory Reszel 3,000,000
Steve Carnes 20,000,000
Evan Weybright 20,000,000
Catherine Konkle 5,000,000
A Form S-8 Registration Statement filed on November 18, 2005, registered shares which were issued to the following consultants/employees (including each of the individuals who received stock registered under the August 9, 2005 Form S-8:
Share Recipient Number of Shares
Gregory Reszel 9,000,000
Stephen Carnes 27,000,000
Evan Weybright 20,000,000
Catherine Konkle 31,000,000
Dennis Nartker 70,000,000
Nathan Weides 3,000,000
Joshua Harris 4,000,000
Bernard Woods 3,000,000
Samuel Crickard 4,000,000
Charles Crickard 4,000,000
Dwayne Bruick 5,000,000
Matthew Lettau 20,000,000
A Form S-8 filed on February 3, 2006, registered shares that were issued to the following consultants – including, once again, a list of familiar names:
Share Recipient Number of Shares Issued
Catherine Konkle 35,000,000
Gregory Reszel 20,000,000
Matthew Lettau 10,000,000
Joshua Harris 6,000,000
Dennis Nartker 70,000,000
Steven Carnes 300,000,000
James Taylor 30,000,000
Nathan Weides 6,000,000
David Peters 3,000,000
In addition to the shares given to this bevy of consultants, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares to an entity called Northern Hills, Inc. in October 2005 – again in consideration for "consulting services."
What services do these consultants provide? The Company offers modest information on that score. According to Grem's recent Form 10-K, Nartker, Woods and Weybright provide manufacturing and production services; Konkle provides "general business services," and Carnes assists with management and acquisitions. James Taylor appears to be associated with Taylor Ventures, the entity that sold Grem the building where it now houses its nascent operations.
With all of this high-priced talent, the Company has yet to manufacture or produce products or complete any meaningful acquisition to further its musical ambitions. Investors must be hoping that Grem will not strike the sort of discordant note that doomed its predecessors.

i WONDER HOW LONG HIS TROPHY WIFE WILL STAY WITH HIM WITH HIS ASSETS FROZEN AND WITH HIM IN JAIL?
pHIL
P.S Sorry about the caps.
Yep.
Why?
Phil
None of the items you listed asserted that any of the directives were posted on Ihub.
If you can find those, get back to me.
Phil
But, Ihub was involved in the pump and dump.
It appears that Ihub was used in the pump and dump.
It does not prove that Ihub was "involved" in it.
No more than it proves that the company that made the car stopped in Texas with the money in it proves that the people that made the car was "involved" in it.
Phil
That does not prove that Matt was using Ihub, only that others were.
To what extent, we don't know.
One important point is that Matt has not been charged with using Ihub.
Also, for some reason I remember that Matt told some of the others to keep it off of Ihub.
Phil
Matt is an Ihub admin.
Exactly what table was he supposed to bring something to?
Phil
IHUB and ADVFN, however, are guilty of not adequately supervising Matt as he used IHUB to manipulate penny stocks.
That's simply it.
Matt has been accused of manipulating penny stocks, but he has not been accused of using Ihub to further the penny sock scams.
If you have evidence to the contrary, please present it.
Phil
Matt used I-Hub, and his position as Mod, to manipulate the pps to his and his buddies' advantage.
Where is your proof of that statement?
Phil
Then what would Matt have brought to the table?
I don't understand the question.
What table?
I'm sure KKD donuts were served at every meal.
Phil
