So you're saying if TW IPOs TWC before TMM IPOs QTV, then QBID's in the WC PDQ?

London couples register for civil partnerships
Gay couples stood in line for up to two hours on Friday to register for the United Kingdom's first official civil union ceremonies. More than 100 couples who entered their names in a register at Brighton Town Hall in southern England will be the first to marry legally under the Civil Partnerships Bill. The bill, which is expected to receive the assent of Queen Elizabeth II--largely a formality--later this year, would give gay and lesbian couples who enter into a civil partnership the same pension and other rights as married couples for the first time. Brighton, which has been called the U.K.'s gay capital, is planning to become a major venue for same-sex weddings when the bill is gets royal assent, with the first ceremonies expected next year.
Roger Lewis, 55, from Brighton, was the first to sign the book with his partner, Keith Willmott-Goodall. "If couples want to marry, then they should be allowed to," Lewis said. "It's not so much the marriage thing, which I think is more important for couples planning to have children, but it is a better way that we can commit to each other in public." Several other European countries, including Belgium, the Netherlands, France, and Germany, already recognize some form of same-sex marriage or civil unions. Under the U.K. bill, gay partners would form a civil partnership by signing a register before an official and two witnesses. There would be a formal, court-based process for dissolution of a partnership.
Petered out.
It must be the trickle down effect.
You guys! :0)
I just stumbled out of bed here in the West, looked at today's chart, and immediately had to go weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
SpillWay,
You don't want to ask me for expert advice. I mean, my understanding of the stock market is "Down - bad.... Up - good". But it seems that things turned around today just about the time that USF11 posted the message below. Then right after that Sublime said "Weeeeeee" and we took off. Well, there's my explanation. Maybe someone who really knows what they're talking about can explain today to us. :0)

Hey everyone I ve been in Qbid since April I want everyone to look into this. http://www.networkteleports.com This is NTI a New Orleans company yes another one. It is a pay to use statelite that offers workers in every US city. Could they be our camera crew in every US city? They broadcast in C-Band and Digital. They also provide the signal for Cox cable in the southeast. Our May 15th Soft Launch on Cox anyone? I'm willing to bet QBID has been there client for months now. I dont know if its good or bad news. Hopefully Denvey can deliver DirecTV.
Did someone just say "Wheeeeeeeeee!!" again?
Well, Sometimes, I'm already over it. Just kidding. I sure hope we're over a penny by Friday.
Off topic
What a great day! Not only is our QBID soaring, the following news just hit the wire:
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - A U.S. Marine who was reported missing in Iraq more than two weeks ago is alive and at the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, where American officials are meeting with him, authorities said Thursday.
Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun is safe and appears to be in good health, said a Pentagon official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Oh my gosh, you guys and gals!!
Fabulous, Casprs1!! Try it with an exclamation point and see what happens.
It worked, Chuck! It worked!
Do you notice that every time someone says "Weeeeeeeeeee!" the stock goes up? (Or is it the other way around?)
Who cares.
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Drinkyerwine,
Thank you!
Still here, QBID$. In my teens I worked at an amusement park and sometimes ran the rollercoaster. It's addictive.
I fought in Viet Nam, you fool. Where were you?
There's enough bile in your posts to break anything down.
Oh, for God's sake, Ray, why don't you go back to posting pompous reviews of movies that you've never seen.
You guys are a HOOT!
You didn't see the movie. I rest my case.
So you saw the movie?
OK guys, we're getting off topic here. This is supposed to be about QBID.
So, what did you think of the Mel Gibson movie?
Lighten up, Ray. Quit taking yourself so seriously!
You're welcome.
P.S. I saw Fahrenheit 9/11 on Monday, and LOVED it.
I think I finally understand. QTV is a SECRET network. When carriers sign on, they sign a don't ask, don't tell clause. That's why we're not hearing anything. It all makes sense now.
In the news Spain next year is to become the third European country to legalize same-gender marriage. Things certainly have come a long way since the Inquisition.
Folks, take it from a gay guy who grew up in rural Pennsylvania in the 50s and 60s. Attitudes have changed. They are going to continue to do so because gay people are simply more visible than ever before. The misconceptions and fears tend to diminish as people get to really know each other. People simply don't like fearing each other. My hat is off to all those straight people in this country who manage to be open and accepting despite the cultural misgivings so many of us inherited.
The time is definitely right for a gay television network in America. I do not blame people in the least for being upset in the last few days over the apparent failure of QTV to deliver on promises. Ray Clarkston had it right when he said that they made sure that their statements were open to interpretation, and allowed us to lie to ourselves. Nevertheless I'm still very hopeful that QTV is going to succeed. I'm no business expert, so take my comments for what they are worth. But the time is definitely right.
Geez. Now that I've gotten that off my chest, I won't need that extra milkshake.
axfm,
Sorry, but I just can't understand why anyone would be interested in a carrot at this time when they could instead have a couple milkshakes. Think of all the calcium!
Hey Foxy,
Don't know if you'll read this in the morning before your great adventure at 6 Flags, but I hope you all have a great time. Those kids are lucky to have an uncle like you.
Uh, maybe I'd better clarify my remark. When I said I took the name Spring Rain because I like the way it sounds in Japanese, I meant I like the way it sounds when spoken in Japanese. Wasn't trying to disparage anyone's accents here. Personally I'm from Swedish ancestry, and LOVE the Muppets. Mork mork mork.
No, I just meant Spring Rain sounds so nice in Japanese. "Haru Same" pronounced "hah doo sah may". They named a noodle after it. Don't laugh. They did! It's those clear little see-through cellophane noodles they serve in soup. When you pick some out of your soup with chopsticks, the broth drips off the end of the noodles just like..... you guessed it..... spring rain.
What does all this have to do with QBID? I'll think of something. Soup stock, maybe?
AXFM,
But I never said anything about Michael Marcovsky. Am I missing something?
And hey, I'm not a "she". I just chose the name Spring Rain because I like the way it sounds in Japanese. (No, I'm not Japanese. Go figure.) I do have a husband though. Been together 20 years. Finally got the chance to marry last February. Could be annulled by the courts at any moment. Don't you just love life?
Got 6 million shares of QBID, and nobody's going to pry them out of my fingers.
Love your posts, by the way.
It was a JOKE dear! I didn't really call Frank at 3 AM.
I just spoke to Frank. He said, "Who the h%## is this? Do you know what time it is?! How the h%## did you get this number?"
Cableguy,
Don't lose sleep over QBID. Just pray that Burger King doesn't join the no-carb craze.
Well, now we hear that there won't be any news until next week. Guess it was a little silly of me to wait up until 3 AM last night to see if there would be a 6 AM news release on the east coast. But am I stressed? Not at all! I feel wonderful! Shall I tell you my secret?
Burger King puts out an absolutely delicious 64 ounce milk shake. It comes in a flexible cup, so you can hold one in your hand as you drive, and jam another one between the passenger seat and the emergency brake. When you tilt it up to your face it is still possible to see the road with one eye if you turn your head slightly. If you pinch the cup a bit you can get the opening to conform to the shape of your mouth. That way when it all comes sloshing forward you don't get it in your eye or down your front. But who cares if you do? It's soooo good and soothing! Stressed? Not me!!
OMG! That chart looks just like my EEG, starting with my first cup of coffee.
Forget the hotline. I've just spoken with Frank! No, not Olsen. Frank Beyonda, the astrostock channeler. According to Frank the Moving Parabolic MACD Oscillator has entered the Bollinger-Kuiper Belt and is forming a Major Triad on the Ascendant with the EMA and Uranus! He says the PPS could change at any time!
That ALWAYS works!! (Except with electrical devices, where you have to back away QUICKLY!)
