I have sure given up on buying it cheap. You have to advertise a cheap bid, but you end up paying enough in commission on 5000 shares to almost double the price you pay.
I coulldn't imagine getting hit at a penny for 5000 shares, and paying .012 including tranasaction cost, instead of the bid price. The volume is just too thin. None of the holders want to sell, and the small "tax loss" trades keep showing up.
If you take a tax loss, you can buy back after 30 days.
Example: you bought 10000 shares at $1.50 back when.
sold them last mont to me for .004.
You took $15000 in tax loss, and can count on a refund worth about $3000. You saved enough money to buy 300000 shares and hold them.
There are a lot of tricky people, and there seem to be enough blind people and those who will close their eyes to taxk cheating as well within the current administration. You know where that buck stops, or you don't know politics.
Do you use Turbo Tax?
I had an open order at a higher bid which wasn't filled. they can't even call it a late cross. I have a feeling I know what it was for. It doesn't show on the pinksheets feed. If a "takeover artist" attempts to use it in a "lowest bid" conversion; I will sue for fraud.
So the sky is still green? I believe the company still has some insurance licenses, so that actually makes is a very minor insurance play. Theuy might even own insurance, and have to file a claim against someone. A major insurance company holds a "put" claim on them. Looks like insurance, but weak.
It still is a shell play. It still is an NOL play if "Joe Mama's Insurance Co." takes over the company, they will not have to pay US taxes for several years. That is an NOL play.
Then some people think I am bisexual.
What was the price I was buying at? I usually can't resist a bargain.
So lets talk about the weather.
I think I am a transexual. My sex is based on the weather.
Whether she says yes.
They are real tricky. Sometimes the lawyers and the pros don't know what's up. Check out MRDG. Seriously.
Good night, and happy Cinco de Mayo.
Viva la libertad!
I was hoping you might check it out and give some views.
What about bk's? Have you had any luck, or good experiences buying for pennies on the dollar?
It's is better to own the bonds until the stock hits close to zero. That is why I like GM junk bonds.
I am assuming they survived. No need to worry about them unless they cost a bunch, just buy more. You will get to the harvest eventually. I planted radishes in December, and hardly any of them fruited, they just gave me little roots and went to flower, but I have more seeds. My Spinach never sprouted, and my cabbage patch is full of bugs.
So do you really have interest in shells, Mz. Janice?
What do you think of MRDG? Do I have a chance with it?
I am going to edit now, but I will probably have to ask again:
Do you know anything about BK?
I have made some money, lost some, and made some costly mistakes in BK's.
Way too hot for me in Lost Angels, today.
My beefsteaks are already the size of cherry tomatoes. Need some peppas, but they don't really grow well in our soil. I have a few strawberries, some brocolli(sp), onions, carrots, rhubarb, and yellow wax beans, all providing. Corn is eight inches tall, and most of my cilantro just bolted and died of the heat.
It is a liquidation/shell play with an NOL kicker. I am not sure anybody around here knows what color the sky is today. Of course, that can change depending on cloud cover, but it is rarely green or purple.
I am fresh out of matches. Look at the fire I started over at MRDG. The cat is out of the bag. Big players in the house.
Maybe. Where we need to start, is not electing a President who will assign cabinet positions to tax cheats and assorted riff-raff. Maybe in another four years?
It will probably still go to zero!
And suck a couple (tens) of billions from the government to boot.
Finally, I can say that the SEC hounds have their sniffers working properly. Illegal 144 sales are the biggest market plague of the 21st century.
Cure the pestilence and let the sick "honest" ones recover!!
That is funny. Create a web page named "144 opinions" and give advice on 144 filings? Is that what they did?
You already have the important stuff. The company appears to be a shell in need of a business plan. I am working on the legal aspects of that observation. The stock is freely traded.
And as most long traders might say: "Cover now!
Thanks for the private message e-ore, but almost everything has to go on the table now. I had that information, and it is public. I am currently under no obligation to require privacy, and I believe that I can repeat public information without any restriction. If the company has a business, then that would be news to me. As I stated in the 13D, this corporation appears abandoned, and I have within the filing, suggested shareholder participation. I might be required to formulate and publish such a request in major newspapers across the country if the regulators continue to stifle my attempts to gain knowledge of shareholder names and addresses.
If gets to be a bit monotonous. "Buy ______!!!! It is going to the moon." "Up again"
Or the other side. Either way, very little real info, just hype or bash. Maybe a new ticker, maybe a news item rehash, repeat, same old.
It looks a lot like something I was typing last night. I think the cat is out of the bag. My name is Alan. I would like to see a return of shareholder value.
I am an ordained minister.
Do you know why Vincent Van Gogh cut off his ear?
I speculate he did it because he argued with Gauguin, who wouldn't listen to him, and said; "Here, maybe you can listen with my ear!!"
Gauguin would not take the ear, so Van Gogh gave it to a hooker to even further insult his nemesis.
Jesus said; "If your eye causes you to sin; pluck it out."
The artist embellished the philosophical content.
For those who have ears to hear: Look what the artist said.
Surely. Both epidemics and starvation are propagated by overpopulation. The study of cause and effect requires due diligence. If this was the "Traders Hub" website, I wouldn't expect any "DD."
I see that they have proceeded to follow the food path, on my suggestions or inferences. Good move.

And so the warriors begin to strategize the battle plan. Will they square off, and face each other on the field of valor; and will the blood letting begin? Or will they recognize that collaboration means better commerce, and trading with more partners?
Stay tuned for more birds and worms.
You have to get up pretty oily to fool some people and catch the worms.
I have created a new email address for shareholders interested in reviving this dead company.
kruse-investor-relations@live.com
I have developed a strong database of information on the company, and will begin creating the website.
Thank you for your patience and your shares.
My last message was supposed to be a reply to you, to set off the bell in your email.
So Doug,
Have you seen the latest filing on MRDG? My name is Alan. Call me sometime. I have come a long way since buying just a few shares of BK companies like this was.
Is anyone interested in creating a shareholders reorganization committee, or something of that nature? The directors have not filed a single significant development for almost two years. The CEO now works for another company, at least that is what the other companies website says. I would think he should have at least filed an 8K on the way out. Lets hope the door didn't hit him on the tail, and that it wasn't a "hot pursuit." Are there any sedatives involved in MRI? Does this involve a woman? It almost always does.
I am continuing to research and develop the opportunity to restore shareholder value.
Pretty easy. All of the numbers you get from 99-90 are 81. 89-80 is 72,etc. They put the same gift in all of the places, and you look at all the close numbers and don't see the same gift.
There are only 9 possible numbers 9,18,27,36,45,54,63,72,81 because you start with only two digits. Robin guesses that one of the nine numbers will be yours. Amazing!
I have since given up on seeing much of anything real from the market, and mostly play with shells; but I do like the asset valuation of MLDS. Really nice ass-ets. You should check out the website.
I am alos playing ARTA and MRDG as shell plays. Dilution rarely happens to a shell until a merger play is announced. Amy did us well. It would have been better if the software would have sold better, or if the NOLs were carried. They could have pulled that off. They are a travel agency, and Amelia was a reservation system. Then again, NOLs are worthless until a company makes money and nobody is doing that anymore.
That is quite a few shares. I hope you are right.
My name is Alan, BTW.
Whatever you do, if they put a young lady in charge of the armed forces, get out of the way.
Jean d'Arc was one of France's greatest military leaders. The women over there are just ooh'la'la
I think the success of Bonaparte and Joan of Arc are only logical. What soldier would be hiding behind a little girl or a short guy?
I thought ERHE was dead after I read that the oil was to difficult to refine, so I recently took a small loss. Good trading, and congratulations. Was it Lugs who had a wife named Amy? I remember one of the gang was impressed with the name. The wreck is still on the track bound for nowhere. I still keep an eye on it, but dumped it into rallies.
Has France surrendered yet? Presumably the capture of the Pirates is only the beginning. We will have to watch for follow up details. France has a reputation to uphold.
Nature hasn't been holding many punches lately. The UN reported 7 million people died of starvation or malnutrition in 2006 (or was is '05?). I have been t4rying hard to find updates on the numbers since. I found one site that suggested the following years number was 33 million. That is equivalent to one person every second. The geometric progression suggests 2 things:
a) There are many to count
b) A child dies of starvation every second.
It is Mother Nature who supplies the food we depend on.
I think it was R/S at 10 to one, so you got $1.50; and you got to play with the $$ for over a year in between. I sold most in January of 08, for between 25 and 35 cents. Then I sold my last 200 shares at $1.36 after the second reverse. We were buying before the first reverse split, mostly under 2 cents, If I remember it right. The combined R/S was 100 to one. Didn't we get a run to .045 once?
From Bid to Ask is almost 140%, I would trade that all day if I could find the buyers and sellers in any volume. I wouldn't want to even trade that on 5000 shares. I am hoping to get a dime or a quarter, but a flip like that would test my resolve.
I have a few things cooking. I wonder what the clueless gf is going to do when she finds out that the stock almost tripled? I still luv amy, even if she speaks chinese.
I just wish I had been able to buy when it was under a buck.
Anyway, I could tell you more in a private message, but I will probably have to wait until "happy hour" on Friday.
You could just take the spam out of this email address, if Ihub will leave the post up:
alphafourspamdoji@spamlive.com
Spam appears twice. I don't need any spam.
How many do you have?
It is a good company with lots of promise. I actually don't believe in the "Oil for Food" technology, and feel that the "gizmo" would be better used for feeding starving children.
A child dies of starvation every second.
The algae cultivation technique that they have developed would produce a specific product which is beneficial to the rearing of many small fish. There are substantial competing technologies which have addressed that purpose. I don't if anyone is selling units.
It is still a "pending" patent, so nothing is carved in stone yet.
What is what?
China Yida, or my USPTO?
China Yida used to be Amy, or IYSA. The Chinese took it over and made it into a travel agency, and now they are building a resort. I would have been buying it much lower.
I thought you still had a few shares lost in your sock drawer or something.
Anyway, I am not buying this. I am buying MRDG, ARTA, and MLDS. Still waiting on the Patent Office, but the shrimp are having babies.
