Cell Phones -
>JUST A REMINDER....31 days from today, all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sales calls. ...YOU WILL BE CHARGED THE MINUTES USED FOR THESE CALLS...
>To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone: 888-382-1222. This number is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your time. Your registry blocks your number for five (5) years.
donotcall.gov will work as well.
note: if you are into conspiracy theories, don't do it!
how does one get on the "don't listen in on my calls list, cause I ain't no terrorist" LOL
The stock hype website most likely sold already. They sure don't seem to carry much buying power. Stock barely traded on yesterdays news release/pump.
Real earnings are what is needed to move this higher or a really effective PR campaign, not some bs website pump. I can't understand why they are wasting $2500.00 a month for that.
OT: Beer in Plastic? Ballparks have them. Bud in plastic. The most awful thing in the world.
otc: "The real effort here is to undermine the efforts of the administration and if you can not see that then you are blind!"
You keep forgetting who is in charge. Who runs the justice department (Bush). If they are anti administration, then he is stupid beyond description.
Who made the deal with Abramoff? The republican controlled justice department. They could have stretched this out longer if they wanted. They could have dropped it. Do you think they are closet democrats running the show?
Blind, don't think so. You are not seeing clearly!
otc: "Have you heard the media rail against the NSA leaker yet? Have they launched investigations to get to the bottom of it. Have spent hour after hour speculating on who is behind it and why?"
Yes, actually I have heard quite a bit about that subject. An interesting discussion regarding the Whistleblower law and if it applies. Don't think so. Also the fact that it could take a long time to uncover that person.
You are not listening/watching or reading a wide enough array of sources.
You seem to be ok with lobbyists paying off your elected officials. I am not. Old law or new law, anything over $50.00 for a meal is bribe/graft/scum sucking political bullsht. If it turned out to be mostly democrats on the take, you would be in line jumping for joy. I hope they roast all of them, dems/repub/indep, whomever.
otc: You (not really you, but all that watch)are the culprit. If people would stop watching 24/7 coverage of these stories and tell the media you don't want that non stop crap, they would eventually move on. I caught 5 minutes of Rita Cosby (crosby?), she is the worst thing on TV. I would rather be tortured than listen to her.
I bet the congress was mighty happy that this story overshadowed the storm that is brewing on the bribe scandal unfolding. One night delay (pun intended). Hang em High!
This should help slow the political process down for awhile! That should be good for the market!
It's not a happy new year for anyone who had anything to do with Jack Abramoff.
The plea agreement he struck yesterday means he's now expected to sing like a canary to minimize his jail time. And that means a number of members of Congress, and some of their top aides, should be sweating bullets. Their onetime ally is now, for prosecutorial purposes, their enemy.
This is hardly good news for such Republicans as Tom DeLay and Bob Ney, and Abramoff was a major Bush fundraiser. But he also did business with a few Democrats such as North Dakota's Byron Dorgan, some of whom have been rushing to return the campaign cash he gave them.
len, no i did not vote at all. Kudlow is crack or was it coke that he was into. I don't watch him at all. It is all I can do to keep from barfing when he fills in for Brinker on the radio show.
I need a diet coke, can you recommend a good restaurant for me? LOL
I have seen worse, happens at restaurants of all nationalities. Don't eat Salsa, Chips, bread on the table, the soup, etc.
I hate eating at restaurants, I just go to keep the family happy. On my own, I would cook all the time.
OT: Ads, the Maxthon built in ad blocker eliminates all the ads.
timhyma:
because the general public does not know or understand the full picture.
Since 9/11 it has become obvious that the Federal Government knows less than nothing. They still can't coordinate the various databases to know where the terrorists are who enter this country. Immigration does not know what Homeland Security thinks it knows and vice-versa.
simply amazing the energy you folks spew
All in good fun, blowing off steam after a tough trading day.
then let folks do there job and enjoy the liberties you still have.
Did you really mean "the liberties you still have"? Because they are being eroded?
but my hope is that this political conversation finds its way to more suitable board.
That is exactly what this board was set up for!
len: I voted 52 times! LOL ... Impeaching Bush would leave Cheney with no buffer. Right out in the open doing his evil crap. Now he is just the puppet master.
Would love to see the results of an impeach the entire administration and install the democrats.
Eddie Murphy?
len: Since we pretty much agree and nobody cares, education topic is closed! LOL
Two beggars are sitting side by side on a street in Rome. One has a cross in front of him; the other one the Star of David. Many people go by and look at both beggars, but only put money into the hat of the beggar sitting behind the cross.
A priest comes by, stops and watches throngs of people giving money to the beggar behind the cross, but none give to the beggar behind the Star of David.
Finally, the priest goes over to the beggar behind the Star of David and says: "My poor fellow, don't you understand? This is a Catholic country, this city is the seat of Catholicism. People aren't going to give you money if you sit there with a 'Star of David' in front of you, especially when you're sitting beside a beggar who has a cross. In fact, they would probably give to him just out of spite."
The beggar behind the 'Star of David' listened to the priest, turned to the other beggar with the cross, saying "Moishe, look who's trying to teach the Goldstein brothers about marketing."
flem: good purchase. i bought some @ .90... I was expecting a dip into the 60's as it had done a few years ago when someone wanted out in a hurry. when it bounced off .85 i made the .90 buy and was actually surprised to get filled as Schwab usually stiffs me on those kind of trades. obviously more interested shareholders this time. that is a good thing.
nuts: Posting Images/Charts

Note: You need the image url, NOT the webpage URL. Make sure you cut off http://. See #board-107 for hints and practice.
If you need somewhere to upload images to, we recommend Image Shack.
flemsnopes: from past tax selling and capitulation I was actually expecting it to go lower. obviously several buyers such as yourself kept it from doing so. thanks for spoiling the party <g>.
Selling over today and a real move up or just painting the tape for year end? We shall find out soon enough.
Happy New Year!
len: The message index is all screwed up. None of the posts seem to register with the list.
len, looked at the surveys, nothing new to discuss from my point of view.
Government cuts student loans! How are we going to compete with the rest of the world considering that the cost of higher education goes up faster than inflation? The major Universities have endowments that are into the billions, why are they raising prices so fast? To keep out the poor from getting educated? I don't know, but it is a national disgrace. We will eventually become a third world nation if this keeps up. We may wind up with the best video gamers in the world, but I fear that China & India will rule the world. At least I like the cusine of those countries.
Maybe our president got a free ride and drank his way through one of the elite schools, so he could care less. Maybe we don't need smart kids, they would never go to IRAQ and get shot up, so keep them dumb.
Does anyone have an answer as to why the cost of education is rising so fast?
len: see my post#1376... nobody picked up on any of those. never got around to your list, i will look at them but why not be open to recent topics?
bbotcs: No PM, but to answer your ???
My states of residences have been: OR FL CA NY, so you can see I have paid high taxes mostly.
OT ROTFLMAO... Sheriff
lentinman, Happy New Year!
lentinman, did you really post this? not an imposter?
bbotcs: As Bush supporters love to tell everyone, we have not been attacked since 9/11. Therefore he is doing a Heckuvjob!
scary
A good portion of the undervalued homes are in Texas. I wonder why?

OT: GM, remember the Chrysler bailout? Doubt Uncle Sam would let GM go down, give in to the Japanese auto industry. No way.
Ewido, I use it frequently, although I did not purchase it. I just do the manual update. At first use it found and removed alot of bad guys. Now it seems to get the same things that Ad-aware does.
EKCS capitulation & tax selling today. Buying under a buck, company is in the middle of its highest revenue year since inception. Announced another 500K plus government project today. Still low float company.
Big time tax selling today... Picked up a few more @ $.90, hope to sell them higher next year. More good news today.
Remember to most directed order firms,, Arb orders are gifts,, sometimes these gifts cause other gifts to be given to the one that looks the otherway,, any one for dinner at 4 seasons or a bar tab at the finest watering hole.. thats as far as i will go om that subject.. hank
What was her name? LOL
Arbs: Hank/10bagger, seriously to much work involved, who needs the conflict. I stay in the US and have enough troubles with BB executions.
I guess if you have the energy for the fight, so be it. I get exhuasted having dinner with the kids, wife and dog.
Happy Whatever!
swan: That was ROTFLMAO funny. Who is the actor/comedian who did that.
He did a Heckuvajob! Brownie.
WSJ Personal Journal headlines today:
1. Congrees Cuts Funding for Student Loans
2. Housing Affordability Hits 14-Year Low
oh, and the most important
3. Cheaper Options for Last-Minute Shipping
len The board was, and is, the issue.
My comment was not meant to address the issue. It was more to comment on the growing problem of apathy in the USA. If over time less and less people care about our Country, then what we discuss will no longer matter.
I think that we are a Nation in decline.
len "But, a war and a President and politics matter to everyone "
You would be surprised how many people are completely in the dark on this and most important issues. It sure amazes me. They are running around, on the go, working so many hours, never reading the paper, not watching the news.
I get blank stares if I mention any current event. They don't care or don't have the time. If only half the country votes the other half are brain dead.
Alas Dear Len, for the moment it is the same news cycle that has been running on for some time.
However on a lighter note, I have loathed the Boston Red Sox since I was a child, and for the past 4 years have hated Johnny Damon. Now I am to do an about face and love the guy.
How about some Yankee bashing, the bloated payroll, the A**hole owner, etc.
LOL
researcher: Schwab has aftermarket trading on BB. In the old days prior to BB, if we were around and someone called to do an OTC or Pinksheet trade, we DID it if it favored us. I assume the same would happen today. MM's most likely have someone at the desk to snap up any loose bargains that come in after hours.
Maybe those who frequent this board are starting to realize that "roguedolphin" is a true patriot who wants the best for his country and freedom and liberty FOR ALL!
Maybe all those who frequent this board are "patriots" but have different ideas on what is good for America. Maybe the constant name calling and ridicule of someones ideas, no matter how far fetched, is counter productive to the stated goal " Freedom and Liberty for all!"
Maybe, like myself, some get tired on the rehash of the same themes day in and day out.
