I'm on my phone on the way to dinner. I'll respond tomorrow.
The sad story was, the clues were in front of us.. Why weren't we getting the bumps with good news. Then when I found out about the conversion situation. I started looking, a lead led to FIMA, then it all came together. I believe too many people were concentrating on the past and Mr. Pierce directly, whereas, it's underneath the covers is where all the action is.
I was told just this morning and given permission to repeat this. Mr. Pierce didn't set this up to be a scam. He has not used any money for personal use. He knows the liquor business better than anyone else. But, he's a terrible manager and doesn't take advice very well. And that the merger taken place will rectify the situation.
ISBG shares. Conversion rate. I don't know. We shareholders need to continue to press the point of the value of BESADO. I sure you saw the pumping of ISBG and of course the push down of DKTS.. The value of the deal is in BESADO..
Thank you for the kind words about my daughter.
Thank you. There will be a merger between DKTS & ISBG.
Thank you SCM:
First, after this morning's briefing, it was requested of me to keep all information that's not currently in the public domain to myself until filings are completed.
I can still post that there will be a DKTS-ISBG merger.
I've reviewed my notes, and yes there are still questions outstanding on the LLC. My notes don't show anything on the set up date, but it was on Sonfield's advice.
I was not briefed by Mr. Pierce. I was briefed by the lead person on the merger.
To CEO 1:
I've done what you have asked me to do.
Sincerely,
The Frenchman
Good day Sir: Since you have made exhaustive research of ISBG.
Can you give me your feelings on the ISBG-DKTS merger?
Where the share swap should be at?
Your opinion for the reason why ISBG was put together?
The Value of DKTS "BESADO" product?
Thank you.
GANG THE PRICE IS GOING UP.. WE COULD SEE 3 ISBG TO 1 DKTS. YOU REALLY NEED TO GET TO WORK MONDAY MORNING. CHECK PETTY CASH
BESADO! BESADO! BESADO! BESADO!
Oh yeah. ISBG doesn't own BESADO. DKTS does!
GOOD JOB GANG! WE SHOWED THEM WE'LL PAY FOR BESADO! BRING IT ON 2 ISBG FOR 1 DKTS!
We got six minutes to go: MAKE SOME TRADES: REMEMBER. BESADO! BESADO! BESADO!
Come on guys. Make some trades.. $200.00 there $200.00 here.. Need to keep the pps up.. BESADO is going to cost us.. You know those greedy stockholders and debt holders at DKTS.
BESADO won't be stolen if the stockholders and debt holders of DKTS stick together!
Okay, that's a little better, a trade for $378.00. I didn't know this stock was in so much demand due to the potential merger with DKTS for BESADO.. But, you need to go higher.. BESADO is a premium..
Wow! Did you just see that big trade of $214.00. Come on guys you can do better. Just believe in how much money BESADO will make! Maybe DTKS should go for a premium.. 2 ISBG for 1 DKTS.. Let's keep it up.. But, please be more discreet.
I didn't realize all this upward movement of ISBG is being based on the acquisition of BESADO from DKTS (Top Shelf Brands). Mr. Pierce controls both DKTS and ISBG. Since there's such a value being put on BESADO, which belongs to DKTS. I will now work on a smaller share amount of DKTS to ISBG. Please keep up the pump, we could get to 1 to 1. Please continue to publish the great due diligence you are doing on BESADO. It will be a great product and money maker!
Hello Carini,
Just got into my office, caught up on my reading. Great posts on insider information. I was wondering the same.
Have I've done enough to satisfy the public need to know about the merger?
Reverse split won't solve the DKTS problem and other problems. That's why the ISBG solution was sought.
Are they disciplined on that ISBG Board, but with all the wash trading, from what I can see. No really new money is coming in, just driving up the pps. I wonder why.
Al and your guys. Can you contact me.
You were brought up in discussions this morning.
Come on guys.
Do a better job disguising the "wash trades" to drive up pps. It needs to hold for the DKTS-ISBG stock swap.
I'm glad the board is buying into the ISBG takeover of DKTS.. at 10 DKTS for 1 ISBG. Good move..
Are you watching the wash trading at ISBG. New 52 week high.
I need DKTS shareholder opinions of the 1 to 10, ISBG-DKTS stock swap.
Will Al and his guys please contact me.
You were brought up to me during discussions this morning. You have struck a nerve.
Below is the email exchange covering the 1 for 10 stock swap. You will see "I agree with you on that and told by him he was going to make it right."

Spoke to ap yesterday, he said I was guilt tripping him. I agree with you on that and was told by him he was going to make it right.
I am somewhat doubtful he will ever get his act together but remain hopeful.

Good Lou,
Due to the kindness and courtesy you have shown me. I want to let you know I'm going to post that ISBG should offer 1 ISBG for 10 DKTS.
Please, is you have an objection to that post, let me know in 30 minutes or call me at
I'm surprised by the ISBG Board.
I had posted the same DKTS 1 for 10 post on the ISBG Board. Nothing, not one response. Could that board be totally fabricated?
Actually, Lou likes your posts. He wrote me he finds you to be entertaining.. I could've post what he wrote me, but I didn't find it to pertain to points I was attempting to make.
It proves they read IHUB. That's one reason I've taken the buyout subject to IHUB. I was hoping the other shareholders would post their opinion. I assure you, it would have an effect.
I'm not a she, Lou is not a she. His public stance doesn't bother me
I read it. I have the email(s). I will not criticize any public stance they take. The Chargers don't want to trade Philip Rivers and my New Orleans Saints would never trade Jimmy Graham.
I just want fairness for the DKTS Shareholders.
I was holding this. This doesn't reflect my opinion. I'm just attempting to do the best I can for DKTS Shareholders.
From Lou:
It's not a rumor.
The Shareholders of DKTS demand 1 ISBG for 10 DKTS.
The Share Holders of DKTS should demand 1 ISBG for 10 DKTS.
I'm going to now verify what I've been saying.

Hows it going, just had a quick ques? what is your connection, brother in dkts or isbg?
Subject: Re: from lou
First, can I ask why?
Second, I'm a stockholder in DKTS, not ISBG.
My brother is researching going into the liquor distribution business. He was in Kentucky this past weekend meeting with a distillery.
Any insight from you would be appreciated

Hello Carina:
I've been studying the trading pattern at ISBG.. Looking at today only, both buy and sell will equal a 50,000 share pattern. If could be 50K one time, then 35K, then 15K, but the average will always be close to 50K at the same dollar average.. Check the 43 trades from yesterday, throw out the 4 high trades (chances are legitimate traders) review the share average of the others and the dollar average.
Target: 1 ISBG for 30 DKTS..
I'm now, attempting to always be polite.
But, I'm also stressing doing the right thing and/or taking advantage of an avenue that could hopefully correct the situation.
Oh, I like your picture on the ISBG board. Will you please post it on this board.
Mr. Pierce has TEXX baggage. What's going to happen if he adds DKTS baggage.
Who's going to lend him money? Who's going to trust him? When someone reviews Dunn & Bradstreet, how many lawsuit lines are going to appear. He will have more suits associated with him than a laundry.
Mr. Pierce is in a tough position with DKTS, but he has a way out with the ISBG purchase. Why don't you call and ask him. I didn't have to call, they contacted me.
Good day SCM,
I wish you had the opportunity to read my original post about the sale of DKTS to ISBG. It had laid out all the reasons for the sale. For some reason, it was deleted after only a few minutes. From my understanding, only Carina had a chance to read it.
I have nothing negative to say about Mr. Pierce, you or anyone else. I've read your somewhat positive postings on the ISBG Board and haven't any quarrels.
I'm saying, ISBG is preparing to buy DKTS. We can quote any past pr with want, including the part about difficulty raising cash and the potential of seeking a partner.
I know how the ISBG deal was put together. I was told directly from the person who initiated the transaction. I know why it was put together. I also believe Mr. Pierce is attempting to do the right thing in his effort to have success in the liquor business.
It's called.
"I don't want to spend another year in court and all the expenses involved." So, just buy DKTS..
What's Mr. Pierce's capacity at ISBG?
Opinion?
I've read your post on the ISBG board.
Is it your belief Mr. Pierce has a financial interest in ISBG?
I believe it's past speculation for the person in control.
