...that's possible...
...but I'd be MORE concerned, as a shareholder that every positive PR / NR in the past six months was soon met by selling and a SP near all-time lows...Duke...
...now THAT's the way to "expose" and present your product!...
...sexy, with a sinful touch of class...
...nice bottle also...
...have never found TV Grape to try...
...I hope Topless will be available for those who wish to purchase it...Duke...
...more apparent good news today...
...still searching for a "bottom"...
...little doubt that a player's unloading IMO...Duke...
...I'm going to return to my original premise...
...that I stated a couple of weeks ago that I believe that one of the large holders here is unwinding his position...
...I was fooled Friday...
...-11% on 173.6K as I write this...Duke...
...sometimes "good news" is news...
...which did not become "bad news"...Duke...
...caution...FINALLY an UP week with GOOD news...
...how's about I wire you a coupla bucks to go and have a little fun before the weekend's over?...love ya, Duke...
...skill, Kid Rock Beer will be a BIG hit...
...initially, I predict...
...I've also predicted that it will not approach "premium beer" status, but WILL approach "premium beer" price...
...you cannot out-manufacture the "big boys"...
...KR's target demographic is neither "yuppies" nor "baby boomers" ; not X,Y or Z'rs for that matter...
...it's American Joe Sixpack's sons and daughters who drink cheap beer at a cheap price...
...I suspect that once the "good ol' kids" realize that they're paying an 18-pack price for a 12-pack product, and when the "fad" is over, KR Beer will join the ranks of the many "niche" beers that never quite "niched"...
...all MY opinion...Duke...
...***Contest Update***...Contest closed...
.........***Predict the closing price of DKAM on Friday September 4, 2009 (Friday of Labor Day weekend)***...
...a mulligan (do-over) is allowed prior to 0001 hours PST on Monday morning August 3, 2009...however, you must have made an initial forecast by the May 30 deadline to be a valid participant...as of that time, the contest will become closed...I will post both the initial prediction as well as the "mulligan", should there be one...

...I somehow missed fg375202 last week ; he is now included...
...no "mulligans" taken this week...
...there are currently eight (8) players "under par"...
...thanks everyone for playing...
...Good luck and find a charity near and dear to you...Duke...
...p.s. congrats to you shareholders on some decent news this week (finally)...
...lotsa "noise" here tonight...
...wassup, peeps?...Duke...
...that being said...I don't believe you can overlook...
...some of the significance in today's news and reaction...
...the realistic potential of a respectable and steady revenue stream for many years from a single source , with the assumption (there's that word again), maybe hope, that this is the beginning of additional forward progress for the company...
...this was no "pie in the sky" Asian-Pacific venture / reverse merger that never had the appearance of occurring...
...this appears to be an initial byproduct of building brick-by-brick...establishing their existing and possibly future brands through standard means...sticking to an established and practical game plan...
...no late day selloff either...and while the volume was not earth-shattering, the appearance that the "little or no change in price on heavier than average volume" that we've seen the past two weeks was possibly a large holder "unloading" was left in the dust today as the buyers ruled...
...I enjoy being critical of this company and some of the regulars here every once in awhile...
...but today was THEIR day...most of them deserved it...Duke...
...7. Overreaction is the operative word...
...Duke...
...nice to see that all of the "good news"...
...is apparently NOT already "baked in" as I have recently mused...
...I wonder what slammin' KR Beer sales will do for this stock?...should find out within the next few months...
...congrats on a long-awaited and overdue UP day on large volume...Duke...
...some substantive news!...
...FINALLY!!!...Duke...
...my inside source tells me that Drinks' has opened up...
...SCOTTRADE accounts for KID Rock and Dre and Snooper...
...no need to approach the company to buy shares directly and have to pay a premium when they can EACH get them "on the cheap" @ $7 / trade...
...just think : 1,000 shares @ $0.137 = $137.00...
...add the respectable $7 commission, and waddya got?...an instant $0.144 average...
...now if THAT doesn't resemble the type of "investing" that has been witnessed here the past two years, then I don't know what does...Duke...
...Well take a look at that
I made a castle in the sand
Saying this is where its at you know
Couldnt understand now
If I realised that the chances were slim
How come Im so surprised when the tide rolled in
I wanna live on solid rock
Im gonna live on solid rock
I wanna give I dont wanna be blocked
Im gonna live on solid rock
Well Im sick of potential
Im sick of vanity now
Im sticking to essential reality now
I dont know whats worse
Try to make a silk purse
Living an illusion living in confusion
Well a house of cards
Was never built for shock
You could blow it down in any kind of weather
Now two solid rocks two solid blocks
You know theyre gonna stick
Yeah theyre gonna stick together
Because the heart you break
Thats the one that you rely on
The bed that you make
Thats the one you gotta lie on
When you point, your finger cos your plan fell through
You got three more fingers pointing back at you
I wanna live on solid rock
Im gonna live on solid rock
I wanna give I dont wanna be blocked
Im gonna live on solid rock
Im solid rock now
...love me some Mark Knopfler...
...you know me...always a little late to the party...
...so the days of "Wine and Roses" are over for Drinks Americas...
...wholesome home-grown products such as Trump Vodka (did someone ask for a "glass of class"?), Rheingold (New York Beer with no rap music or violent content), Newman's Own (Oh!, I'm sorry...he's dead!...no need to ever have to worry about HIS input), and good ol' American Willie Nelson...not to mention one of my all-time favorite folks, and "brother-in-arms", Bo Dietl...all on the "back burner" now...Drinks has taken a turn for the better!......
...now it's Dre Time...yes, the former NWA member...***Note : Look up what NWA stands for...even today***...
...Dr. Dre, a true American-bred racist "Straight Outta Compton"...just pull up a few of his old lyrics...the man does not like you, peeps...but he DOES like money and liberal enablers...
...and, more recently, only because Dre cannot adhere to ANY deadline, two more upstanding citizens have taken Drinks' Center Stage...
...Kid Rock and Snoop Dogg...
...of particular unsatiable note is the above-listed "Blazed and Confused" poster, listed here by you Doggy-lovers...
....YES!..."Olifant Vodka Presents"..."Mickey Avalon" (he's no Frankie Avalon, I'd be willing to wager)...Mickey will be playing ALL his faves, including "Fu** N Em All"...
...YES!...that's the ticket to our new sought success!...raunchy inner-city lyrics and the accompanying behavior...
...I'm looking forward to the first photo of Kid Rock peeing into a KR Beer bottle...an instant classic, to say the least....
...OH, well!...at least there has been no noticeable change of market sentiment to the company since the strategic change, has there?...
...this once highly anticipated journey to greatness has LONG taken an unfortunate and uncivilized turn, IMO...
...good luck to all who bought in playing and betting on the success of TV and other anticipated quality partners that Drinks COULD have brought aboard...Duke...
...my oversight...
...had you down on paper but failed to transcribe it to the post...
...will be done tonight...Duke...

...***Contest deadline dwindling down, folks...***
...I hope that everyone saw my offer of a $100 donation of the winner's choice...multiple donations gladly made in the event of a tie...
...please, if for no other reason, take a stab and help out charities such as St. Jude's Children's Hospital, or The American Cancer Society or The Ronald McDonald House, or even two of my favorites, The Center for the Study of Huntington's Disease, which works toward treatment and a cure for a devastating and terminal disease which has robbed me of several of my siblings, and The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Center which has helped my wife to treat and beat her cancer...
...I know that there are many decent people here who have yet to "pull the trigger"...
...let's get a few last-minute entries...Thanks, Duke...
...boston, I like and respect you more...
...each day...
...you are not the only one to "buy in" in the $2.60 range, but the only one to humbly admit it here..
...and it was understandable...you see a stock meandering in the .50'-.60's, it gets a shot of well-promoted TV, then it's of to the races...buy high and sell higher...a trap we ALL fall into one time or another...
...unfortunately for you it did not go much higher...
...many others here, even in the face of their posting history won't admit to such, but WE know better...
...my question to you...and I ask as a friend : "Why did you continue to ride this down to $0.14, regardless of your ability to "average down"?...
...one more question : "Conventional wisdom says not to ply more than 10% of your investing income into a speculative stock"...did you in fact do this, and why?...
...still hoping to get a prediction from you by 0301 hours May 30...I would LOVE to make a donation to your dearest charity...Duke...
...p.s. if you are going to shower sneaky with roses for his DD, then please equally undress him for his wild and unsubstantiated speculation...Duke...
...****9 hours left to qualify for your PARTICIPATION****...CHARITY INCENTIVE...
...in the "Predict DKAM's Closing Price on Friday September 4, 2009" (the Friday before Labor Day weekend)...
...there is no truth to the rumor that Tirunesh is standing by as the contest's sergeant-at-arms...
...as an extra incentive to lure all of the posters who may be hesitant to participate in this contest because you have a distaste for me...
...I offer a $100 cash donation to the charity of the winner's choice...
...please join us in having a little fun and in helping someone raise a few bucks for their favorite charity...
...ties each get a $100 donation...please join us...
...Thanks all for participating...Duke...

..shareholders better pray that Kid Rock "shooting for Labor Day" is not akin to Dr. Dre shooting for a August 2008 CD release...
...more humility ahead, IMO...much more...Duke...
...the "smoke and mirrors" issue you refer to...
...has been in progress since the initial downturn in April 2007, IMO...
...keep holding onto that "Wild Oats" scenario...
...before long, relying on this one-in-million shot or some other speculative dream, you'll either be rich beyond your "Wild"est imagination, or basically where you stand today - minus a few dollars...Duke...
...acquisition is the LAST thing that will occur with Drinks', IMHO...Duke...
...sounds wonderful, gink...
...but to simply discard the opinions stated of so-called "bashers" only feeds into the PUMPER frenzy that has little, if any documented success...
...I have often stated that Drinks has an original yet questionable read on today's market, especially when it comes to the alleged icons...
...as I have stated before, I believe that the inital reaction to KR Beer will be beyond the wildest drems of even sneaky_peaky...
...but this poularity will soon wane, IMO due to the product's price, quality and availability...Duke...
...we're NOT giving away one of carl's yachts, bigdaddy...
...winner gets to pat himself on the back, remember?...
...in a REAL contest with a REAL prize, matching predictions would probably not be allowed...
...good morning, boston...we miss ya...Duke...

...the 0001 hours deadlines for May 30 and August 3 will be as of Pacific Standard Time, for you leftcoasters...eh wcdaddy?...
...c'mon, all...I know that there are alot others out there who read here...Good luck to everyone...Duke...
..."some serious debate" is seriously unlikely to occur...
...when one side of the argument of a $0.14 stock attempts to "debate" the merits of that stock being a $10 (yes, that ten DOLLARS!!!)stock in the near term...
...I didn't even believe that $0.70 was doable...Duke...
...three things :...
...wrong, wrong and wrong...
...please mark this post so you can prove that I was correct AGAIN...Duke...
...I LOVE it, goatman!!!...
...even sneaky is making me laugh today...and not AT him!...
...duly noted...I hope I have enough room...Duke...
...boston, I believe that I've come up with a fair compromise...
...I'll post it with the recap...with you STILL aboard...
...if that does not make you happy, I will certainly honor your request to exit...
...don't forget : No one person's words or actions can change what is inside you unless you allow it. I agree that certain words can be extremely hurtful, but that is mainly due to the fact that we, when we react angrily or emotionally, relinquish our power to the offender...this gives him his strength...
...several years ago when my son was 6 weeks old he stopped breathing at 5:30 in the morning...I resuscitated him and we all moved on...I posted this story at some later point on the old Globetel MB...
...some wacko im"post"er who despised me began to wish that my son would die a painful death from a brain tumor...he also wished the same on me and my wife...he would make up ID's such as "stu_must_die", "cancer_kills_babies", etc...("stu" was a reference to my old ID "stuartlittle"...
...other posters were outraged and posted they would inform Yahoo...I asked them not to, and not to feed into him, since my belief is that he would simply reinvent himself...
...this went on for a few weeks...I would bait him and belittle him...finally, because he derived no "power" from "taunting" me, he disappeared...
...in my law enforcement career I held dead children in my arms, saved children from dangerous and life-threatening circumstances, pulled people out of burning buildings and car wrecks, prevented people from committing suicide, was faced with multiple deadly force confrontations AND performed CPR on perps who just tried to kill ME and / or fellow officers...I know EXACTLY what is inside myself...
...that can only be changed by outside influences if I allow it...see you at tonight's recap...Duke...
p.s. boston, this post was being written as you were posting your last message...please stand by at least until tonight's recap...thanks, bud...Duke...
...p.p.s. in an ironic twist, go to the "bans" section, click on the most recently banned poster and check out the number of total posts he has here at IHUB...you cannot make this stuff up...Duke...
...now THAT's the best way to handle it, IMO...
...'tho I don't believe the "majority" is offended...
...the best way to "get even" is by holding his prediction up for scorn, for all the world to see...assuming the price goes nowhere near that number...Duke...
...don't recall the "Nolets'" offer...
...wasn't here then, but I HAVE done extensive DD on posting histories here...
...my read on THAT particular run was that it was primarily created by the TV promos and accompanying sales, along with the usual wild speculation seen in places such as this...
...regardless, no recovery has occurred in spite of a "mountain" of promise and links to very prominent names...
...one might "speculate" that the "names" brought aboard have done more harm TO the company due to their apparent inability to "create" and "deliver" FOR the company...Duke...

...c'mon, all...I know that there are alot others out there who read here...Good luck to everyone...Duke...
...your power to deduce is clouded by what you have at stake here, IMO...
...<<Those that ridicule with no stated position or stake in any future event are far less likely to make any kind of future observation with accuracy.>>...
...unfortunately, for you AND DKAM, posters such as kezzek and I have had FAR better accuracy with our predictions regarding Drinks' future accomplishments / successes to date than you and most other regulars here...YOU PARTICULARLY...
...please spend a few minutes scrolling through my posts and let me know if you can find one where I've been off-track...
...I predicted "Dre's delays" ; urged caution with regard to the "Asian deal", noting that due to the agreement being "non-binding" that the only thing Drinks would get, should the deal fall through, was a declining share price ; predicted continued declines in TV sales, etal...
...predicted that Drinks would NOT be buying LaBatt or Rolling Rock ( I believe you predicted BOTH potential acquisitions would occur)...
...in addition, I've urged longs to consider "taking something off of the table" during the past two or three price spikes, each of which has been promptly followed by selloffs continuing the downtrend which began in February 2007...
...along the way I recognized a tremendous trading opportunity (late February) and loaded up beneath $0.155, selling ALL @ $0.19 and above...
...there's not much you can say to me...or kezzek...Duke...
...fair enough, Ohio...
...always open to sensible suggestions...
...but I think it's fairly simple...:
...get in a pick by May 30...that deadline pretty much ensures that there will be immediate interest...I think that fact has been fairly well established...
...and because the initial prediction is being established two months before the contest deadline, let's have a little extra fun by allowing the "mulligan"...
...I think it will be interesting, if not humorous, to see the "bashers" recalculate upward or the "pumpers" downward...
...of course, the August deadline will probably see a flurry of posting activity...so be it...
...I'm hoping that other regulars here such as RILO will participate, and, of course hoping that no other regulars boycott the contest due to their contempt for me...
...maybe we should also include a secondary "prize" for greatest price differential...since I intend to post both initial and final predictions...
...I intend to update the predictions daily through May 30, then, absent a "mulligan" will post contest updates once a week...Duke...
...westcoastdaddy...I know that it may appear...
...that I'm changing the rules along the way...actually I have "fine-tuned" a couple, such as changing the deadlines to PST...
...however, I clearly posted that you must make an initial pick by the May 30 deadline...thereafter you may change that pick to your final choice by the August 3rd deadline, if so desired...you only get one "mulligan"...
...may I recommend that you leave your initial pick as is, then closer to the August deadline update it if so desired...
...otherwise your prediction today of $0.95 will be your "mulligan" and, ergo your final decision...Thanks, Duke..
...you simply do not get it, kezz...
...every OTHER manipulated OTC stock is "Pump & Dump"...
...only DKAM is a target of hedge funds and MM's and nakedshort sellers conspiring to bring the price down so someone can buy 50 million shares @$0.1378 instead of $0.142...
...it's an elaborate scheme far beyond the scope of your comprehension...Duke...
...come again?...
...too strict?...please elaborate...Duke...
...God bless those who have given their lives...
...in defense of our nation...Duke...
