Nothing to do with SHRPQ??? LOL!
$140,000+ of "unsure" money here today. LOL!
"she reversed her sentiment." Their LAWYER changed her mind? Changed her opinion about what is going on? So...she told one person one thing and then changed her story for you?
LOL!!!!
Thank you good sir. You are most welcome.
Got a few things on the shelves...

Gotcha... Here is an interesting paper I found about MM's
http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~sanmay/papers/das-qf-rev3.pdf
I'm not 100% convinced on all that. All I know is this is wound up pretty tight and ready to explode. IMO
Any more news and this thing make rocket to .50 at least IMO. This bugger moves on air!
Good gust of wind comes along and we are gone!
14.5! We gonna run to .20??
Nice. Thanks. eom
Is this NOBL?

"We are sector focused.
We are emerging growth.
We are uncovering value.
We are Noble Financial."
Yes. Holding up VERY well!
She wants to explode I can feel it in my bones.
Here is a really stupid question. Why would a private company put out several press releases detailing what they are up to and how much they are going to make off of the deals? Again...probably a stupid question and maybe I'm just tired but if I was a business owner, I'd be damned if I would spend 1 ounce of my time and resources informing the public of my activities.
I bet we run HARD today.
Sorry about the whole "brother" thing then...lady. LOL! I would think the odds of shrpq and wamuq having the q removed at the very same time is pretty outragous. And if this IS the case...I'm playin' the lotto! : )
Could be a glitch? Dont know brother. eom
Wonder what thats all about?? Interesting!!!! My sucky e-trade account defaults to shrpq. e-trade is pretty slow though.
Hmmm...this business description makes it sound like TSIC is still part of stuff thats going on. I'm buying more tomorrow. All of the PR's, business descriptions, etc, that I've found are similar to this. I have to go with SHRPQ is golden.
This came off of AOL finance...
Sharper Image is busy reshaping its own image. TSIC, the company that owns the Sharper Image brand, once sold its gadgets and gizmos through about 185 US stores, as well as online and through its mail catalog. The product mix, which appealed mostly to upscale shoppers, included electronics, personal care items, recreation and fitness accessories, housewares, toys, travel goods, and gift items. After being sold in 2008 following a bankruptcy filing, TSIC will focus on the branding of Sharper Image while winding down its retail operations. While Sharper Image sold products from other manufacturers (Bose, CASIO), most of its inventory consisted of its own, higher-margin, Sharper Image-branded items.
Please disregard this post. I'm retarded apparently.
Nice...I'll take that too! : )
So TSIC, inc. is not a new entity. They were incorporated on 2/20/1987.
Go here and type in TCIS or the file number "2118135"
https://sos-res.state.de.us/tin/GINameSearch.jsp
Didnt someone here say that "TSIC, inc." was a NEW entity created out of the sale of the business? Maybe I'm reading too much into this? Is my head tilted the wrong way? Did I miss a vital piece of info? : ) LOL!
I dont know what to think... Why in the world would this "BCSI" put the news of the $540 million deal in a bankruptcy report for a company that has nothing to do with it???? Something is going on. I hate like hell to speculate but I wonder if Hilco will use the TSIC "shell" to go public? I guess it's possible.

I know and I agree 100%. I will be trying to get hold of the folks at TSIC on Monday. They should, at the very least, be able to tell me if it is SHRPQ that is getting the money.
Here is a cut and paste from the e-mail I sent to the author of that PR snipit I posted...
"I am writing to you in regards to a Press release that you put out on October 13th titled "Sharper Image To License Brand To Maker Of Massage Products".
In this release, the initial paragraph, stated that SHRPQ (the stock symbol for TSIC, inc.) had exited bankruptcy and that the LISTED company signed a deal to market it products. I was under the impression that the company that is publicly traded (TSIC, inc f/k/a Sharper Image) with the stock symbol SHRPQ, is in no way related to the company that signed this deal. Here is the initial paragraph of the press release for clarity...
"Four months after exiting bankruptcy, Sharper Image Corp. (SHRPQ) has signed a deal that will migrate its brand name to thousands of stores at a variety of chains."
If I am correct about this being 2 different companies, 1 being a publicly traded company(SHRPQ) and the other being a privately held company, then this could be VERY misleading to shareholders of the publicly traded company SHRPQ.
If you could please shed some light on this for me I would greatly appreciate it. I can be reached at this e-mail for your convenience."
Kind of wordy and probably poorly written but I just want to see what they say.
well, if I understand it correctly, some people are saying that the Sharper Image brand is no longer a concern of SHRPQ shareholders, so...any news that we see that states anything to do with Sharper Image and its name, brands, intellectual property, etc... will NOT benefit us as shareholders of SHRPQ.
The more I read this..."Four months after exiting bankruptcy, Sharper Image Corp. (SHRPQ) has signed a deal that will migrate its brand name to thousands of stores at a variety of chains." The more pissed I'm getting. If we (SHRPQ shareholders) dont benefit from this in any way there will be hell to pay. How many people bought SHRPQ based off of the PR's from October 13th?
He could have meant a collage of investments. Maybe he is just artistic? LOL!
Well, here is a snipit from the PR from the 13th.....
"Four months after exiting bankruptcy, Sharper Image Corp. (SHRPQ) has signed a deal that will migrate its brand name to thousands of stores at a variety of chains."
Notice the stock symbol....notice the reference to bankruptcy...
Here is the contact info at the bottom of the PR....
By Andria Cheng, 415-439-6400; AskNewswires@dowjones.com
I have written an email asking for clarification. I will post any response I get.
I've been having one hell of a time getting hold of any of these guys...How in the heck are people getting responses in 15 minutes and I have been waiting days?? This makes no sense.
I sent an e-mail to Hilco on Wednesday asking about the stock with no response as of yet.
I'm willing to bet that we are not going to get any direct responses to e-mails because they are getting ready to PR coming out of bankruptcy...and the only reason I say this is because of the "clues" they have been dropping us through other PR's.
They wouldnt really be able to answer any questions or comment on anything anyways. Just my opinion though.
$38-$40 pps would pay off some of my bills. LOL!
Thanks for your efforts!!! You da man!
So you spoke with him already?
.14 again. : )
alrighty then. Bye.
Thanks. We'll keep that in mind.
