Boatman,
You'd better believe it! This weather is amazing! Yesterday I was able to sit out by the pool, which is beside the ocean, and trade stocks. Had a club sandwich, great fries...geez, it just doesn't get much better than this!
If anyone out there is thinking about getting Verizon or ATT Broadband....DO IT! You can have Internet Access ANYWHERE! What a hoot!
The market sure has been crazy lately.
Hey! Thanks Boatman & Screamer,
For both places. I will definitely have to check them out! I've already been told to be sure & go to Blue Heaven as well.
I'll be wandering around the Keys before much longer. Going to the Everglades tomorrow.
Now then, my recos to add to the list....In Ft Lauderdale...
Tom Jenkins Barbecue!!! 10 Star Rating....Listen, I live in the South....I know Barbecue...this had to be among the best I've ever tasted!
15th St Fisheries-GREAT Seafood...Right on the Intracoastal Waterway....Casual & Great Service! Watching all the yachts go by is fun.
Started out there....am slowly working my way farther South.
Was in South Beach yesterday....wasn't invited to any celebrity parties though :(
LOL!!
Yes they do!
Greetings from Southern Florida!
Hey! I leave town and a promising PR comes out...I should leave town more often!
I'm looking forward to the conference call....I don't care if the company gets my information...got nothing to hide. I know what I am curious about....the gold mine!
And I guess it's pins and needles time to see if production of biofuel really does begin this this month.
Card,
Well who wouldn't be upset with the decline in the PPS?
Do you think that I'm exactly jumping up and down with joy?
It gets very tiresome....and the price might go lower..there's absolutely nothing to hold it up until some type of good news comes out....and that news has to deal with revenues.
So.....the biofuel plant needs to begin production soon.
Update: My plane leaves in 4 1/2 hours. Hey! Gold's up!
Silver's up! hahaha! The shorts keep trying to knock down silver...but that sucker just keeps on going. I remember when gold was $300 and silver was about $5 and the expert idiots kept saying that they would never go up again. Heck, all I was using was common sense and history and I knew those "experts" were wrong. Same with PHGI....as long as there is progress being made in producing revenue, it'll go up again. Won't that be sweet? Ok, back to my cave now.
Hi card!
Nope....I learned a long time ago that it's pretty useless to talk with CEO's or IR people. I don't listen to what people say....I watch what they do. And what I watch is whether or not progress is being made on the business plans. I'm pretty convinced that the biofuel plant is progressing....I don't know much about the mine, other than the road has been built..
and right now I'm waiting to see if the biofuel plant begins production and thereby produces revenues.
That's what I care about. The shares can take care of themselves. This thing about making such a big deal out of the share count is nuts, IMO. Yeah, yeah....I know...the more shares out...the smaller the piece of the pie...but without revenues...there IS no pie. Revenues and profits are the ONLY thing that really count.
UPDATE: Yeah, I know I'm up late. I confess...I don't like to fly. I really don't. So...if I don't get much sleep the night before a flight...then I sleep on the plane. Have a good week all. For the first time ever I'm taking along a laptop, so maybe I'll still get to post sometimes. Otherwise, I'll be back on March 23rd.
Thank you boatman!
I plan to enjoy myself a lot! I'm already psyched! I got a call from the concierge today, asking if there was anything I wanted to know about the area, or anything that I needed.
WOW! That was good PR. When I hung up the phone, I felt like royalty! :)
Hi BC!
Well, you know what? I've seen companies that were in far worse shape, and had every bit as many shares as PHGI and they eventually did just fine.
I thought that seemoremore had some very interesting things to say. I get so tired of the same ole same ole on the share count. It's not the shares that truly matter...it's the REVENUES. And authorized shares are not the same as outstanding shares.
You know what? I said a month or so ago that I would soon know if I'd be able to make a quick trip to Opp in April and see for myself...and talk to the Mayor myself...and talk to people myself.....and see if doggone is telling the truth or not.
Well, I'm still waiting on one thing to happen...it might happen this week...and if it does, I will put in a call to PHGI and see about getting a tour in April. Hopefully some good news will have come out by then...but whether it has or hasn't won't change my mind about wanting to go there. I just hope that the thing I'm waiting for comes in this week.
So, we'll see. And if it does, no PM's are going to run me off the board.
Well doesn't that just suck! Nothing in your previous posts ever led me to believe that you were a coward.
I would NEVER let PM's run me off of a board. And I was really enjoying your posts too. Oh well.
I'm off tomorrow anyway for a vacation. I do appreciate the insights that you have given. The radio stuff especially was very interesting. Thanks!
bearclaw,
Speaking of appreciation....I always appreciated stockjock's posts because I could tell that they were sincere. I really miss the ole guy. I also appreciate you. Thanks!
No matter how this plays out....I will never regret getting to know the myriad personalities played out upon this board.
I don't know babydoll.....I don't know.
I guess we'll just all have to wait and watch and see what pans out.
bikerider,
No, I said that if he does a 3 for 1 reverse split, it would then accomodate the extra shares.
Remember, that is only my THEORY! I have no way of knowing how the game plan is going to be played out. But it was the only theory that made sense to me.
Boatman,
If something good doesn't happen by the end of May, I'll have to make some of my famous steak and kidney pies to throw at him.
Those pies are famous, because I made them one time, and not even the DOGS would eat them! LOL!
I mean, those dogs have dug up 4 day old dead rabbits and eaten them....they eat cat poop with relish.....they LOVE it when the farrier leaves horse hooves for them to munch on...
BUT....they would NOT eat those pies!
Kuan,
I agree with boatman....it's ALWAYS good to see you! No matter what the circumstances.
But you said you could think of no justification. I can but it would involve a reverse split if my theory is correct.
Those shares they gave us had to come from somewhere. When the A/S and the O/S were maxed out....what else could happen in order to hand out those divvies?
If my thinking is right, then everything WILL end up ok..it's just very nerve-wracking. Heck, it was nerve-wracking everywhere today. One company I own came out with GREAT news, and the share price ended up 4 cents lower. Sucky sucky day all around today. I think that next week will be better. I think that the job market report freaked a lot of people out.
And if my thinking is wrong, then it won't be the first time.
But you can knock me down, but you'll never be able to knock me out! One can't always control what happens to them, but they can ALWAYS control their reaction to it. Which is a good thing. Otherwise I'd be a bitter old dried-up b*tch!
Instead, I'm a sweet, delightful, charming, sexy, helluva woman. Just ask anyone who knows me! ahahaha!
dumb,
No, I'm not going to post what a good thing billions of shares are for us, but I am going to give my take on what might be happening.....my guess is as good as anyones.
I think now that shorts might be right and that maybe we will be seeing a 3 for 1 reverse split. The reason that I am thinking that it will be a 3 for 1 is because the preferred shares that we received will be worth 3 common shares in a year.
If that happens, then, once again, as long as the company keeps progressing in their goals, the share price will end up ok. I remember a stock known as FTEL, which was in the pennies....they did a reverse split (I think that it was a 10 for 1). Everybody howled....ranted...raved....and yet a year later, FTEL was at $10 per share. Those who had the foresight to see that FTEL was still going about progressing, became very rich.
Now then, to me, the true mark of a person is whether they are man enough to admit whether they are wrong or not. I am going to give PHGI a deadline....end of May, 2008. SOMETHING good has to have happened by then....either biofuel production revenue or gold mining commencement...something. That is just two months away. If by then, nothing has happened, I am going to pony up that I was fooled. BUT, DI...if by then something good has happened, will you be willing to pony up too?
Well, in case anyone from Perihelion still reads this thread, I just want to take a moment to say that I really appreciate the extra shares.
Since I'm still of the opinion that this company is going to make it, those extra shares will eventually mean a lot of money to me and I ALWAYS appreciate money!
OH NO!
I hadn't heard about stockjock! I was wondering where he was.
Dadgum crumbsnatchers! How dare they keep stockjock away! Does this mean he goes back to selling men's underwear? However, he's not on the banned list....yep, I'm definitely wondering. He's a cool cat!
UPDATE: Never mind.....I just went to one of his prior posts and looked on his profile....and you are correct....stockjock definitely has gotten the "BOOT". :(
Now then, who'll be next?
Bearclaw!
Nice to see you here again! I hope that the wardens treated you well at the IHUB facilities. <g>
And thanks for the compliment....just trying to help a newcomer make sense of it all.
Tex,
Actually I think that you're beginning to watch at a pretty good time. The past few months have been interesting, but the share price has been hell. But through it all, PHGI has just kept accomplishing things....slowly but surely...that's why I don't believe it's a fraud...that...and as I'm sure people are getting sick of me saying...the fact that a former member of the U.S Treasury Strike Force is involved with the stock.
Now dumb Indian (another poster)can make fun of government workers all that he wants, but I could write a dissertation on what happened to make him feel that way. I'm betting that he had a couple of run-ins with some of the agents...maybe a levy or two? Who knows?
So, Tex, we're getting pretty close to "put up or shut up" time. When the plant that is being built is completed (and you can go to the company website to access webcams set up at the building site), the question is...."How soon will revenues come in and what kind/how much revenues? Some of the recent PR's sound very promising.
And # 2-----The gold mine. Snows will be melting in the Utah mountains soon. The road has been built. What happens next?
Who will be joining us in getting out the gold? Will there be any gold brought out? The mine is located pretty close to the Nevada line, so I hear. Rough country out that way.
We'll see.
Libra,
I did! Mine was 1 share short as well. Maybe they're doing the new math. I liked the new math that I tried to do better. With the extra 270,000 shares! LOL! That still cracks me up!
Oh well, what's a share or two amongst friends?
LOL! I have a few of those useless divvies as well! Medinah Gold is what comes first to mind.
And speaking of divvies, I know accounting...and so I figured that with the preferred shares I would be receiving about 300,000 more shares.
I was telling a friend about it, and I was asked, "How many shares do you own anyway?" I said, "Just over a million".
So.....I was informed that I would only be getting about 30,000 more shares with the preferred. Oops! My bad. Yep, I know accounting all right! LOL!!!!
Anyway, until that point it had been a good day...until I "lost" over 270,000 shares in one fell swoop! hahaha!
investtowin,
Yippee! That IS good news! I, of course, have my PHGI in tdameritrade (sigh) so I guess I'll keep checking as well.
Mebbe this will be the start of better things!
Why sure, honeychile......I LOVE fish! Of course, all depends upon what kind.
Now you have shorts.....he's kind of like a blowfish! Blows wind and rain upon stocks.
And then you have boatman.....he's kind of like a prayerfish.
He says a prayer over shareholders before he swallows them whole.
And of course, avdave.....he's a businessman's lunch special.
And worm06.....oops! That's a fish whose name we shall not speak.
And then of course, there is me.....the dolphinfish. Sweet and sassy and lots of fun!
And you must be a texasranger fish! hi-ho silver to the rescue!
Actually, what is going on is that the shareprice of this stock has gone to the devil.....too many sharkfish in the waters....and now we're waiting to see some preferred shares in our accounts....
As for me, I don't give too much credence on shares and all that stuff.....just show me some old-fashioned PROGRESS! By May will there be more activity going on in the mine? By May will the biodiesel fuel plant be showing reveneues? According to the latest PR's there are contracts waiting out there. Will shorts ever get the sand out of his breeches?
Will boatman ever sail his boat? Will the early bird ever get the worm? So many questions.....someone has the answers!
LOLOL!
$1.25 by afternoon tomorrow?
I hereby christen thee PUMPO SUPREMO!!!!!
You can pick up your prize later! :)
Well, it just figures that it could go to .01 tomorrow because at 8 AM tomorrow I'll be in the dentist's chair for about 5 hours so if it does, I'll be missing most of it!
Welcome aboard you new ones. I don't care where you're from or what you're in the stock for....it's just so nice to finally see a price rise and positive comments for a change!
Well shoot....if it goes to .01, then why couldn't it also go to .10? What can I say right now that could label me a pumper? PHGI.....$1.00 by May!!!! Will that do it? :) Oh! And that's May, 2008, thank you very much.
Hi all!
I'm way behind on reading the board.....my horse got sick, my dog got sick, I had some dental work done today, tax returns have been backing up, out of town company coming this weekend...whew! It's been hectic!
First of all, I've got a few pm's that I need to answer. Might not get to them until Sunday afternoon when the company leaves.
Anyway, I've got stuff I'd like to say, just have no time to say it in. Maybe that's a blessing. LOL!
I just received the following information concerning PHGI from a source whom I consider to be reliable.
There was a new filing on 2/12/2008. The AS now is 920,000,000.
I figured that the bashers would discover that themselves sooner rather than later, so I'd rather be the one to put that out here.
Five bagger,
You are again correct. I was talking about shorting in general....both legal and illegal. With what I was told in Manhattan, there was no need to see if shares were available to short.
I remember that once only in my life I tried to short a stock...SNAPPLE...it was at some ridiculously high price and I wasn't able to do it because I was told that there were no shares available. I mentioned that experience to the bigwig in Manhattan and he just laughed and said, "With the kind of shorting that I'm telling you about, you don't need shares."
So once again, to all who doubt that it can be done...it CAN be done and for what other reason would the bashers be on here 24/7? Because they care about the stockholder? BULL HOCKEY!!! Because they have nothing better to do with their time? BULL HOCKEY again! There is one and ONLY one reason for the attention they are paying to this stock and that one reason is MONEY!!! We all know it. And what is sad is that many times they succeed. But not this time. Not..this..time.
True, they have helped to bring the price way down, but they will not bankrupt or destroy this company. The price will come back up because progress is being made and dreams do come true.
sand,
You can believe that all you want, but the fact is that I have personally been in the back office of a MAJOR investment firm in New York City (Manhattan) and was informed step by step how ANYONE with the right foreign account can short ANY stock.
Why was I in the back office? Because I had gone to Long Island to do some on-site DD and decided to pay a visit in Manhattan....and yes I have to admit, I so charmed the bigwig that he told me lots. Now that has been over 10 years ago, and since I was not interested in shorting, I didn't write it down, but I remember VIVIDLY the main point....It can be done and it is being done.....so don't try to tell me that it's not. That won't work with me.
Pennimon,
THANK YOU! You stated EXACTLY what I was thinking. You just stated it so much better! Yes, I was thinking JV as well...I just didn't state it as such.
As long as this company is making progress, (and it is), there
is absolutely no reason to count it out.
I'm not predicting this, not at all, and wouldn't expect it to happen, but there was a stock called TMMI that went subpenny and then within a few weeks went to over a $1 a few years back. Then it went to subpenny again and last time I looked it had risen to about 10 cents....and TMMI has far more shares than PHGI and as not accomplished nearly as much as PHGI....TMMI has just been around a whole lot longer.
avdave,
Good reposting of PART of my thoughts. But I notice that you didn't say anything about the other part of my thoughts...and that's the part that stated that those authorized shares are not too many if PHGI begins gold mining. Not too many at all.
Of course, if the bashers are right, and mining never commences, then my thoughts will change. But why build a road if you're never going to use it?
five bagger,
Why thank you! Yep, you are right!
haha...ok mr. smartie, <g>
ya got me. I forgot a zero. I meant to say .0005
What's a zero (or two or three) amongst friends?
Thank you Screamer.
I wouldn't know for sure, but it is my opinion that if an explanation were to be given, it would tip the company's hand on possible plans that they have.
That's one nice thing about knowing nothing....I can guess all that I want. My GUESS is that the mining operations are somehow involved....but I sure don't know if that's correct or not.
And if I'm wrong, it sure wouldn't be the first time in my life.
Double E,
No shareholder likes additional shares, but I hope that you realize that the new count is the authorized shares, not the issued and outstanding ones. Big difference.
Mining companies normally have a great deal of authorized shares, and if PHGI wants to ever begin mining, I, for one, already knew that they would have to increase their authorized. The new authorized count is still very, very low for mining operations.
And yes, I can hear it now....the jeers and catcalls that will make fun of the thought that PHGI will ever begin mining operations. Let them jeer and catcall all they want...it will not change the truth.
Meanwhile, I still have my extra order in to pick up more shares at .005. Let the games begin!
greedfl,
Hi! You and Sarah will definitely be in my prayers on March 6th! Please keep us posted on the outcome.
I bet that Sarah IS going to be excited! I got real excited too when I heard those bells clang and saw that she had reached her goal! Bless her heart. We argue on here about things that don't really matter....and meanwhile your brave little girl has to take 4 shots a day. Many an adult would not be able to handle that.
Anyway, picture me jumping up and down and wanting to give her a hug when I saw that her goal had been reached! I agree! We have some great people on here!
Boatman,
I remember when you posted about Sarah's website a month or so ago on a different board.....and therein lies my quandry. Your post on that board about Sarah was very caring and sincere.
And now on this board you state that you did not write the destroy post. BUT of the people who saw that post, there is one whom I trust implicitly and I know it is not being made up.
SO......I can only conclude that somebody else used your ID to make that post....realized his/her mistake and quickly erased it. If I were you I would check into it.
stock,
I always heard that one could tell how big "IT" was by looking at the size of the hands.
Oh.....you're talking about the refinery? Then nevermind.
Since this is OT, I hope that it doesn't get deleted....BUT..
THIS IS VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!!
And to show that each and everyone of you has a heart, please click on the link that greedfl's daughter, Sarah, asked him to put up, and READ her letter and see the courage that this very special little girl and her family have....and then find it in your hearts to help her meet her goal. She's reached 68% of it....only $140 more to go. Come on guys...each of you can spare at least $5....yes?
Thanks!
boatman,
If you feel for anyone who loses money, then WHY would you post that you intend to destroy this company? Why? How is that showing feeling or concern for ANYONE? And what difference would it make to you if PHGI makes it or not?
