Maybe the new location in Nevada will offer slot machines in addition to showing off Extreme Sandbuggies. Anyone know if that would be legal?
After a thrilling - exhilarating day on the dunes, and a few cold ones ... ABSOLUTELY ... it's "Sandspeak."
Word has it this company dilutes BIG into any run. Thoughts TODAY about doing so - anyone?
SMTR: Wow! Gonna fly this afternoon!
KLUSS - From the recent 11/2 filing ... looks like this boat is about to take on water faster than what it can be pumped out.
Just grinning per the PR...
Makes: Well thought out - well written posts, you have written. Thanks for giving of your time and insights.
Technically, yep ... you are probably correct, Aware. I might be wrong, but now that you mention it, I think it wasn't until AFTER the resurrection of Christ, and 50 days after that, that they officially became known as "Christians." Maybe someone could help out here if I'm wrong.
TEK: In case The Berm doesn't respond to your email in kind ... remember, Judas was a "Christian" too, until 30 pieces of silver helped qualify him to be a CEO of a Pinksheet company.
What do you make of that Kluss? Those are too many numbers for me to understand. I can't count any higher than 10. I started investing in pennystocks the day my teacher tried to teach me beyond 10, and I've suffered severe brain trauma every since (learning disability).
VANT: Thanks; I don't have PM service. ETMO didn't pan out for me and now I'm living under a bridge trying to catch a carp now and then for something to eat.
I'm with Makes and a few others regarding what is going to most likely happen with RSDS. The CEO took a course of action he most likely NOW chooses not to make a course change with, and is getting every dime he can out of selling shares before his door closes.
His continued silence on so many important matters addressed on this board speaks GREAT VOLUMES to me.
For those of you who yet are sitting on a ton of most likely, essentially worthless shares (in my opinion, of course), as I've said before and I'll say again, I'm truly very, very sorry for you. (If you think I've not suffered through the same with other stocks, you're assuming wrong. My loss in RSDS is peanuts compared to some other stocks I've allowed myself to get suckered into).
The PRIMARY reason I keep reading this board, and posting now and then, is to hopefully see posters and readers of this board become MUCH WISER than ever before.
I suspect the Berm is knowledgeable enough about securities laws and wise enough to dodge the "legal bullet" if push comes to shove. And if he's like other crooks, he'll privately gloat how he so successfully pulled of his "RSDS huist," just like most crooks invariably do.
He'll lie low for a season, and then will surface again. When and if he DOES ... people who have been taken to the cleaners in RSDS can DO SOMETHING about that - if that time comes.
So the question I HAVE -- WILL WE?!
Or ... will we just sort of blend in with the other pumpers and hypsters ... trying to bring enough newbies to the trough to drink from the "pool" ... and as more and more innocent virgins drink of the trough ... we can unload just like "everyone else does" before the stock get's crucified?
I've pretty much come to this conclusion about the sad state of Pinks and OTC's/BB's ... as Makes has so elequently exposed it for what it REALLY is ... a freaking LEGAL cesspool of sharks sanctioned by our wonderful FED to rape innocent victims of their hard-earned dollars. (My words, not Makes).
Is the SEC going to be our "hero." Wouldn't bet a nickle they will! Will Congress go to bat for our cause? Why SHOULD they? The fewer dollars spent on pennystocks, the MORE dollars can go into Big Board stocks, lassies. Congress is for Big Board companies, ladies and gentlemen ... because that is where lobby dollars come from: not pennystock companies.
The power of "the pen" should never be underestimate however. (In this case, the power of the "key board.") When posters on stock message boards start exposing CEO's and pennystock scams for what they are ... readers will eventually begin to sort out WHO is just pumping and bashing, for what REASON/S. People are smarter than what they are often times given credit for (except ME: I'm getting stupiderrrrrr. I should be outside in the sunshine breathing clearn, fall air instead of writing on a stupid stock message board. See's - there's your proof!)
A truthful pennystock CEO who is trying to do things the morally RIGHT way -- the ethical way: he or she will get rewarded for it, and rightly so. So will all the patient shareholders who had the wisdom and the means to buy early and cheap.
Having said all that nonsense: "Hey Bermy ... want to go deer hunting with me?"
And to all of this I conclude ... this is strictly my opinion. If it were fact, no one would believe it.
Afterall ... who in the whole wide world ever tells the TRUTH on a stock message board, right?!
Be prepared for the Berm to announce in his next PR that they found pure gold and extremely high grade diamonds in his pile of rocks ... and ... and ... buried directly below the pile of rocks was a small metal container that contained a detailed map of where the Holy Grail has been hidden! (In one of Berm's mines, maybe?)
Strictly opinionated, of course, by me.
UP: Thanks for posting. I truly hope things work out for all concerned. Bedtime here ...
UP: I'll give you and Alan the benefit of the doubt on your last post and wish him the best. He has every right to expand his business and make all the money he can.
But it had better NOT be at the expense of retail investors, like 99.999% of the rest of the Pinko CEO's are doing, and have been doing.
Sure I know they can't get conventional loans, most of them. But I have a REALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL difficult time believing a bank in Calipornya wouldn't lend him $3.5 million if they were firmly convinced he had an order for over 40 of his security rigs to an oversees buyer. If Alan will give me concrete proof, I'll get him a loan from MY banker. It's not that hard to do, if you can convince the banker you can pay him back plus his interest.
Man ... 100 Billion Authorized? That so strongly hints to me that his oversea's contract is a whole lot more "iffy" than what his flimsy PR's on the topic suggested.
I simply have to be honest: I think Alan is not as honest as he would like to project he his. If he's honest, then I go back to a prior post. He needs to hire someone to write his PR's so the NEXT PR and the NEXT PR lines up with the one he started out with.
Lord have mercy ...
UPND: Your last post trigger me to remember that this is ANOTHER "issue" I have with Alan. If he is bringing in revenue ... why the crap stay silent about it? That's the biggest positive ANY company has going for them, especially a Pinko company.
Lord, Alan, are you TOO BUSY or WHAT to report some revenue figures?
And man oh man, if you are logging profits beyond expenses, you can blow these shorts right out of the water, dude, with ammunition like THAT? Doesn't one of those lawyers you hired have enough brains to tell you THAT?!
Oh, and yes ... least some haven't followed my posts on this stock for very long, I TOO am a bagholder, but by choice. I took what little remained and decided to gamble it in another Pinko company that is probably a bigger gamble than I thought ETMO is.
And, I posted that I would jump back in this stock in a second if I thought it might get some sustained momentum in a reasonable about of time. Alan is the only one who can convince me that is going to happen. Certainly no posting on a stock message board will do it for me.
The stock DOES have so much potential, if Alan will just do a few simple things any other CEO would do. Give revenue figures; give sales figures, clarify his nebulus offshore sales "hints," and put in a PR that he will pay off his restricted shareholders of the $3.whatever million loan if he wants to in the 2-year waiting period.
Uhh - the 100 billion authorized????? This is NOT a personal slam, Alan, but have you visited an eye doctor lately? Maybe you meant to say 10 billion new authorized, do you suppose, and one more zero accidently got placed there that you couldn't quite detect properly? Please tell us that is what happened.
Or maybe you need to go see a shrink who sells eye glasses on the side. Man - 100 Billion?????? You playing with a full deck, my man?
I sincerely appologize if I come across as overly bitter toward Alan. My REAL anger is in fact against the "Naked Short Cartel" who is gutting these pennystocks, and as each year passes, it certainly appears to me it is getting worse.
Now, I'm not cutting Alan any slack here, because I believe had he been a lot MORE up to speed on some credible followup of his PR's ... it would have gone a long way in slowing the shorting problem down.
Alan is going to pay dividends. I bought shares on that PR.
Alan is going to sic his lawers on the shorts, and by trademarketing ETMO shares, he would kill the shorts.
So ... what happened to the dividends? What happened to the trademark issue? Silence, silence, or more silence. I don't operate by email, Alan. I operate by PR's. So I sold most of those shares.
Uhh ... "I offered to pay my helpmates with restricted shares, but they refused cold hard cash and wanted shares."
Man did that sound good to me. I bought MORE shares. Then I find out shares were being dumped like a pigeon with diarrea. That is about all it took for me.
Well ... The Made In America PR and the order for Sandcars from someone, somewhere overseas ... yet silence since.
I can keep going, but SURELY I'll be taken by some as a basher. Give me a break. What is there to BASH with this company NOW? Alan does a fantastic job of bashing his own company without MY help.
Sure, when XTMS got nailed by the shorts as it was flying near $.06 ... that had to drive a nail through Alan's heart. It would have mine. Tell ME why the "cartel" wouldn't let the stock keep climbing when it had that momentum? It could easily have hit $.20 or $.50 or higher. Yet someone took it down so fast it made my head spin. I wasn't in the stock then, but it was obvious to me watching it what was REALLY happening.
Now .. if Alan and Clan was selling shares like mad bandits at the time - sure; then I can see why it got shorted so hard.
But I still go back to my original theory, which of course I'll never be able to prove. Alan torked off the "cartel", and evidently felt that if he sounded like a tough enough guy, maybe they would fold. My gut feeling was that he was only asking for the bullies to get stronger and MORE of them.
Correct me if I'm blowing in the breeze, folks, but when the FED simply turns their eyes from this naked shorting gone absolutely insane, and NOT in your and my favor, that tells me the "cartel" can do any damned thing they well please and they KNOW it, and do NOT have to worry at all about the FED's punishing them.
The whole thing makes me mad as all get out, as I'm sure it makes Alan much more so. It would make ANY CEO in Alan's shoes raging mad, no doubt. BUT ... if these pennystock CEO's don't STOP issuing bazillions of shares as extra pocket money -- or simply as their ONLY "business" ... what should we expect I guess.
Sometimes I get really weird in the head and think maybe, just maybe, this IS the FED's way -- it IS the SEC's way of letting this thing play out and ultimately solve itself. Let these pennystock companies keep playing their dilution casino game, and the "bigboys" will make profit from their scamming until enough retail investors simply stop investing money in them.
Maybe, I wonder or think ... that is the end game plan in all this thievery and cover-up going on.
So ... I go back to my last post. ALAN ... the ONLY hope you have that I see is that you're going to have to get sqeaky clean, and do some friggin credible followup when you issue a PR.
It appears you might be wising up with today's PR. You didn't promise ANYTHING, or even throw out any false hope. Now that's a great start IMO. Keep up the great course change. It certainly can't hurt anything at this point IMO.
The only "negative" I could find in Alan's very well written PR today was his silence regarding aliens from outer space are the REAL culprits behind the naked shorting.
Had he included that ... the brokerages and the MM's and the DTCE and probably the hedge funds might cut him a little slack.
Today's PR sent the battle cry to ATTACK the "short cartel," and let's see who wins the battle: Mighty Alan, or the "Cartel."
Let me also say ... no; a R/S will NOT help any issue of shorting, but it WILL enable Alan to sell some shares shortly after the split and make some pocket change he can't make right now unloading shares.
Of course, once the "cartel" place more short orders on the the higher share price after the split ... they will be smiling brighter than EVER before with this company.
I'm not trying to plant any seeds that Alan is about to do a surprise R/S, in case anyone is wondering, not soon anyway. I'm just saying that he only told HALF the truth about a R/S. A reverse split would be WONDERFUL, for Alan. Just not retail investors; that is VERY true.
If anyone here thinks that ordering certs is worth their time ... do yourself a HUGE favor and go to the Ragingbull board on PBLS. Go back and read the posts from about a year back to present. See how far it helped THEM solve the "naked shorting problem on PBLS."
You can name other penny companies just like PBLS. It does NOT work; sorry Alan. You've got to do BETTER, lad, than today's PR. Like TBIRD clearly articulates:
Be bluntly honest, dude; make good your word; release some credible facts ... the shorting problem will go bye-bye. Shorts only attack LYING CEO's ... Alan. Lying CEO's who like to dillute and put the sole blame on you "Nasty Naked Shorts."
Savy, Alan?
Anyone mind if I pump SWVC here today?
Thanks, Bada. Just wondering MORE about today? Reassurance that a person can sell PERIOD I think is going to need to be assured before new buyers will come into the stock.
If the Berm will have some of his family ("credited investors?") start BUYING with all that money they made last year off us ... maybe we can get a reversal going here before the sun sets - suppose?
Maninnepa: NAWWWW ... J.S. doesn't play penny stocks -- she ASSURED me sometime back!
Not ME. I just bought earlier.
Amazing that I keep getting DELETED on the SWVC board for bringing up the name of Janice Shell.
No pumpers YET here on this board for SWVC ...???? Hmmmmmmm ....
Suppose someone is FREAKING???????
I exited RSDS several weeks ago so I can't answer my question ... BUT ... wondering if retail can sell shares at $.0001 yet if they've tried? Very curious ...
Anyone?
Janice Shell recommends STRONG BUY for SWVC!!! (Rumored, anyway).
Maybe Rick is going to EXPAND his bidness into Precious Mineral Transporting Services as well?????
Mr. Berman: Thou shall NOT dump today!
The ONE thing I'm counting on is that Alan does NOT do a R/S split on this stock.
I would rather see him do an A/S to 100 TRILLION shares ... than do a R/S.
"Why would THAT be - Lucky?"
"Credibility, Lucky ... credibility."
"Not good enough for an answer, Lucky. Credibility is relative."
"Okay - try THIS. If Alan does a surprise R/S ... it simply sets the share price HIGHER so it brings even MORE hedge fund sharks to the blood to short it even MORE. A wounded dog is a wounded dog is a wounded dog that we must put out of its misery."
Pathetic answer ... Lucky
You agree, or disagree, Alan?
Wonderful posts this evening. Thanks, BLUE -- MAKES.
This is ADVANCED pennystock investing insight at its BEST!
Learn WELL ... beginners.
(P.S. -- What you learn here in pennystocks will GREATLY help you in the future, if you continue to play in the most sophisticated and ruthless "casino" in the world).
P.S. "Shut UP Lucky! You lost TOO in this stock!"
P.S.S. "YEP - and Berman taught me some VALUABLE lessons in the process!"
Enimus: You have MUCH wisdom for your age. Learn to listen to it MUCH. A week from now, a lot more will appreciate your post.
Though no one will tell you, of course.
I put in a GTC order to sell my KSWJ shares at $5.00 a share.
I figure chances are as good to sell them at THAT price as they are to sell them at $.0001.
Thanks DAK: Will seriously consider it.
That's what my full service broker kept telling me before I fired him.
DAK: I concur with your last post. THUS ... I'm here to help guys like Berman Hood make money off ME.
I'm here to help MM's make money off ME.
I'm here to help my broker make money off ME.
Only problem with all my generous GIVING to these noble kings and kingdoms ... I'm running OUT of $$$ seed to keep sowing to them!
Am I doing something WRONG here in all my generosity? Have I misunderstood and therefore misapplied that quirky Proverbs in Chapter 11: Verse 25 ...
"The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself."
Maybe this Proverb could also be translated to mean: The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters to fools will surely get pissed on by them? - Suppose?
UW: Try this out for a Monday. Let's say you and I decide to start up our OWN discount brokerage firm. We offer the same services that the other's offer, with ONE exception. We PROMISE that we will never participate in Naked Shorting, in any way, shape or form. We put it in writing PROUDLY for the world to see.
Wanna' bet our company never gets off the ground?
You bring up a very INTERESTING point, UW. Something obviously is UP with discount brokers and pennystocks, and it ISN'T IMO to help retail investors.
WHY will the major discount brokerage firms not allow you to buy a pennystock at times that has just released wazoo news, other than over the phone? Afterall ... I ask myself the question: Do they REALLY want me to make money on my money, or are they MORE concerned about someone ELSE making more money than me,myself, and I?
I think the answer is obvious, yet when you ask THEM over the phone ... they'll give you gobbly-gook jibber-jabber that sort of "implies" that they are only to "protect" their customers in certain situations, but they aren't allowed to reveal what it all entails.
Uhh-huh.
Oh YEAH ... I think you're RIGHT ON with your take on the PR news issue. The discounters have worked very much in cooperation with the "naked short cartel" ... and they simply don't want to give up a "good thing."
Who IS the "naked short cartel?" Getting answers to that is like trying to get an answer about who is the Mafia, in every city around the world, and who isn't?
The only way you can REALLY find out is when you start threatening to take money away from them. They find YOU; you don't have to try to find them! And when they find YOU ... you won't really be thrilled about it.
Maybe this is a little better analogy. Don't go to Vegas in any popular casino and waste your time asking to talk to the head kahuna about:
"How are your games rigged?" You'll quickly get shown the door, with no free drink in hand most likely.
Veritas: Don't know if this has ever been spoken of on the board, but I like to think of the popular translations of the Bible likened unto a covered wagon wheel.
The center hub of the wheel is TRUTH. All spokes of the wheel spiral inward to the center -- to TRUTH.
What holds ALL the spokes together to keep the wagon wheel intact is humanities' desire to know TRUTH.
Each spoke attempts to give a little better understanding to those seeking to know TRUTH. Their purpose is not intended to confuse nor contradict other spokes. Their only purpose is to look at TRUTH from a little different perspective, so that if words of another spoke don't quite correlate to the reader, perhaps another spoke will.
Jesus Christ is recorded in EVERY popular translation of the Bible as TRUTH, right? He Himself said He IS TRUTH.
People can say that "truth" is relative, yet they can't prove it.
People can say that Jesus Christ was a total imposter to the real Messiah, yet they can't prove it.
People can say that all the popular translations are in fact true ... that Jesus Christ IS TRUTH ... yet no one can prove it but HIM.
What has always amazed me is that He doesn't go out of His way at all to try to PROVE He is right.
To me, that is stunning!
I can't PROVE He is TRUTH, of course ... but in all honesty, no one can PROVE He isn't, either.
Some say He's truth; some say He isn't.
I figure -- what is there to lose by believing He IS TRUTH, like He claims in all the major translations of the Bible, and letting Him convince me He ISN'T if I wrong.
Afterall ... if He's REALLY Truth, He should be able to somehow impart peace to me about it, I would think, if I REALLY want to know.
What do you think? Am I blowing in the wind, or what?
Told Ya! 3 outs, and the Series! It's all in the SPITTING!
It's so gross how much those guys spit!
Yep: 3 outs; series over.
