I can think of two right off the bat.
TMMI and GSPG-----Talk about sagas!!
TMMI......mafia, suicide (remember the Iron Butterfly...Taylor Kramer, one of the members of that group, was working on some type of futuristic energy and ran his truck off a cliff. Was missing for MONTHS before the truck was found. Rumors were mafia hits...it just went on and on and on) and then a former officer from MCI (the guy who set up Prodigy) began dealing with all sorts of I guess you'd call it occult matters.
GSPG.....infighting galore, bankruptcy, power wrestling.
Those two make PHGI look like a walk in the park.
Yes, you certainly have been bad because I see that some of your posts have been deleted. Into the alligator pen with you!
But then I also see where the one where I gave my true identity....you know....JS...was also deleted. Oh well.
I agree with the underpromise, overperform statement that you made, but truthfully that could also be applied to PHGI as well. (I figured that I'd better say it before the bashers did).
But it's true. We were promised a Canadian dividend....we were given an implied promise that the bb listing would be complete by now....we were told that the refinery would be bigger than the one they are building now...we were told that revenues from the gold mine would begin in 2007. We were told a lot that hasn't come true.
So now then....WHY am I still Pro-PHGI? Because I'm stupid?
No, but because I know that almost all new enterprises undergo unexpected obstacles. (such as the deterioration of the bond market). I also know that when we were told those things that is what the principals of the company believed to be true.
So I look at their actions when faced with unexpected obstacles. For example, I'm sure that it didn't enter Beebe's mind that the stock price would ever get so low. And when I see their actions, I salute them. They kept on trucking....one step at a time.
We all know what is being (and has been)accomplished. They have never stopped. They have never quit....even with people bashing the stock, day in and day out. I also judge the quality of the people surrounding the company. And there is only one other stock that I own that even comes close to the credentials of the people in this one.
So, because they have not quit....neither shall I. And I really, really love the fact that they have a few of those former Feds on their side. I keep telling people....there is NO WAY that this company is not on the up and up..no way!
But for now, I guess I'd better quit writing.
Eddiecat!
Aye Aye Capitan! League of gators standing on red alert!
Edwina's got the whip...the black leather high-heeled boots..
and the leashes. I got them critters under control.
What is needed in the coming days ahead is fortitude. To a man (and woman), visualize yourselves as being a grey stonewall. They can attack, they can scream, they can holler, but they can never penetrate that wall.
The gators are here to give us strength...the wall is here to protect us. The energies are uncoiling....ready to lash out with all their furies...but they will be tired and spent by that grey stonewall. And then the sun will come in all it's glory....and the light will shine.
Clothes? You mentioned clothes? Oo...you're talking my kind of talk now.
How in the world could you choose to buy more shares of stock in PHGI when you could buy CLOTHES instead? Dang EE! What are you thinking? Get a grip boy!
And thanks for worrying about me back there with the gator. Aw, that ole gator tweren't so bad. I just looked into his eyes, and gave him a smile...and he melted plumb away. Now you want to talk mean critters....you talkin' boars...wild boars, that is....Texas B.
hiya blackcat!
Durn! I plumb forgot about that other alias of mine. Yep, Edwina's a tough ole biddy....compared to her, Jeff (the one who I really am) is a softie.
But yer right! Them gators sure left hungry. But I won't let them get boatman. He's gotten to seem kinda like our pet basher. Yep, ole Jeff here got a soft spot for boatie, but Edwina would just as soon p.iss on him as look at him! hahaha
Man, blackcat, I gotta tell ya...it's hard keeping all the different personalities that I have in line. I think that Edwina b.itchslapped Jeff the other day.
Double E (or should I say Eddie)
LOL! That was good....I like that....
FACTS AND COMMON SENSE WILL IN NO WAY INTERFERE WITH THE PURSUIT OF THEIR INVESTMENT.
Gee, that kind of chokes me all up inside...sniff
Sounds almost like part of the Declaration of Independence.
I think that I'll just get all patriotic...
But, but Eddie....you forgot one thing. THE share price is DOWN...DOWN....DOWN. Who cares about all the other stuff?
Who cares about the progress and the growth and the courage in keeping on keeping on? Who cares?
Shoot....I guess I'm just going to have to put in a new order to pick up some shares at .0005. I mean, if that's the target, then that's the target! Who am I to argue? I'll just play! Good luck, bud!
Your comrade in arms,
JS
But Pennimon,
It's just so much more fun to nitpick at all the little things.
Hire 100 people? ok, uh-huh..not gonna do it yet? I see.
Do it later maybe? Who knows? Which comes first? Pre or post opening? I SEE. yep, gotcha!
That's why it's just so FUNNY to me! It's like watching two little ole women a-sittin' in their rocking chairs talking day in and day out about the weather.
Gonna rain today Mabel? Yep
Be sunny tomorra though....I see
It cracks me up!
THIS BOARD CRACKS ME UP!!! God it's funny!
If anything, this board is even crazier than my own private life right now....and that is really saying something!
Thank you one and all for bringing me such comic relief!
You guys are a RIOT!!!
Boatman,
I don't remember Wallace making a speech in Silver Spring, but by then I was living in Virginia so it probably escaped me.
But I do remember him being shot in Laurel and then he was taken to Holy Cross Hospital in Silver Spring. I remember that because I had been a patient at Holy Cross a few years before.
Also, I was re-reading your prior post where you mentioned the towns....I think you meant to type MD towns, not VA towns around DC. Easy mistake to make....but Wheaton, Olney, Silver Spring, are all part of Montgomery County, and they're in Maryland.
I see where the guess on the wormblog is that Jeffrey Swain is either EE or stockjock40.
But, but....EE is Eddie!
And I think that stockjock40 probably sells men's underwear or something.
Ok, ok......I'm going to hafta admit....
I AM THE REAL JEFFREY SWAIN! ROFLMAO
Any others who try to say that they are the real Jeffrey Swain are imposters!
Oh wow! Yep....thems are some very familiar town names to me. EXCEPT....it is Silver SPRING....not Silver Springs..
Everybody always gets Silver Spring confused with the tourist attraction, Silver Springs, which is in Florida.
Yep, you were definitely in my neighborhood. I remember Columbia Maryland when it was still farmland....and Olney was on the way to the King Farm.
Ok, back to work now! Honest!
Well, everyone,
Today has been fun! I don't know what PHGI closed at today, but I don't care....what matters is what it will be closing at very soon.
And I agree with Capt Hook, trade wizard and anyone else who sees an imminent upmove coming.
And why do I agree with them? BECAUSE I WANT TO!!!! LOL!!!
Like I said, today has been fun! Back to work! Enjoy your evenings!
Good for you Capt! I loaded up a wee bit too soon...but that's ok. I'll still enjoy the explosion.
I'm hoping to go to the plant too....but I'm still waiting on the one thing that would allow me to go.
If you get there before I can, I will really be looking forward to reading your reports.
I think that everyone should listen to Trade Wizard.
He sounds like quite a smart chap to me! :)
Bottoms up! Load her up boys! Spring that chicken!!!!!
blackcat,
LOL! Hey, can I be Edwina Eddie?
Shorts,
Read my answer to whistles,
"No I have never worked with Frank....I've never even met the man." But I know teasing when I see it, just as I know when someone is not teasing.
kuan,
He's supposed to say....SUUUUUU-EEEEEE! LOL
whistles,
No, I have never met Frank....but it would not surprise me if he had at least not heard the names of some of the people in the Dept where I used to work.
But the really higher ups that I used to know I met through my Dad over 40 years ago. For example, Lucie Baines Johnson and I were in a piano recital together...and she flubbed up. I felt sorry for her. Her Dad, of course, was, at the time, the second highest higher up in the country. He was Vice-President at the time....so that was a long time ago.
Scovanner,
It wasn't your post.
Doggone,
What in the heck do you think I've been saying to you guys ever since last summer when I first bought PHGI.
I bought PHGI because I grew up with, and have worked with guys like Frank. When I kept saying they were the creme de la creme....the top of the pack.....I knew what I was talking about.
I have to admit...that it was very, very gratifying indeed for me to read that you were impressed. Thank you. You should be. These guys are AWESOME, both on and off the field.
avdave,
In my opinion, that post went far, far, far beyond a mere TOS violation....and I'm not going to stand for it.
A person wants to make veiled threats behind the comfort of their computer, then they need to be called out on it publicly.
MODERATORS,
I perceive the prior post (#20474) as a threat to John H Beebe, and I think that the proper authorities should be notified.
Thank you!
Hi skt,
Yeah, I know. It's a real b*tch, ain't it? Shoot, don't feel too bad....every single gol darn stock I own has been losing money....oh well. They gotta turn around someday.
Yeah, when gold goes up, my gold stocks go down. When energy goes up, my energy stocks go down. And they're good, solid companies too!
Good thing I stay relaxed about it.
Anyway, good luck to you! I hope the European winter is mild this year.
I just have one thing to say....
Everybody is nuckin' futs! This is better than a TV show.
I'm glad that I'm getting swamped with taxes and don't have much time for here anymore.
From the pr today.....PHGI is still heading in the right direction....slowly...step by step.
The share price will follow...and if those who want to remain crybabies over it, be my guest. The smart people who are long aren't bothered by the thought of a short-term decrease at all. They're licking their chops to buy more at as low as it can be taken. And why? Because I think that it's obvious to see that revenues are just around the corner.
And to Sweetpea....you're a riot! I don't know whose posts I have enjoyed more....yours or blackcat's. I wish I had the gift of barb that you two do. Totally cracks me up! Anyway, thanks!
Double E,
I know. This is where I am really serious. I don't know if you remember, but that "cream" is what persuaded me to first buy PHGI.
I KNEW what kind of person he was. And since I knew that he was part of that elite team, I knew that he was the best of the best...the creme de la creme....I've seen these guys in action...there's no one any better, IMO.
bearclaw,
My uncle has been retired for many years...but who knows? Perhaps my cousin has already joined the party!
EE,
I think that probably most of the "spokes" just do it for the money.
Did you notice from the article that the SEC has been going after these guys for 4 years?
I wonder if many people realize that when it concerns money laundering, not only the SEC, but the IRS, Secret Service, and FBI also get involved. I used to read the confidential IRS reports on how they go about catching some of the money crooks. Really interesting! I'll tell you this....people lots of times make fun of govt employees....but growing up in DC, I knew a lot of them...and depending on their field, they can be some of the smartest people one would ever meet. I had an uncle who was the head of the Western Field Office of the FBI...and the stories that he used to tell...were amazing!
And then there is my cousin, the Secret Service agent..Yes, I have heard many stories. But once again, they are GREAT people....the absolute cream of the crop!
And then there is good ole Willard Scott (one of the kindest men....but that's another story! lol
Double E,
The last time that I mentioned that name my post got deleted.
So now I just call him you-know-who. But I know his initials!
Boatman,
So what do you think that John will be tied up with the first of next week?
Never mind....he'll be at that biofuel expo/conference! I hope that good things come from that. I wish that I could be there. It should be a very interesting conference.
lol....I just posted asking about that and then I read your post. That's great! I hope that you make a ton of money!
Aha!
What? Did you think that I'd not notice that last sentence?
You said, "I am a shareholder."
So....does this mean that you picked up some shares today?
If so, then, "Welcome aboard, grasshopper!" :)
kuan,
I am going to tell you what I have observed about you since I've been in PHGI.
For all these past months, you have always been a gentleman.
You don't post a whole lot, but when you do, it has usually been some type of observation or serious comment.
If you say that you have contacted all parties, I would believe you without hesitation. Besides, the energy that I pick up from you when you post is good. I trust good.
boatman,
Like the Nike ad says....JUST DO IT!
Jump in! Come on....you'll feel better! The water's fine.
GET THOSE SHARES MAN!
Hey blackcat,
Ah....I see that I was being too smug too soon. It appears that I am NOT the oldest one here. Both you and Boatman were born before me.
We're veterans of some mighty famous wars. Anyone on here remember TMMI? I was there from almost the beginning. On Prodigy, no less. Anybody on here remember the Prodigy days? Not in it anymore however, but I'm still familiar with many of the names-Larry Panik, Peter Olsen..etc. I see where Janice Schell started a TMMI board recently on RB. Talk about going full circle.
haha!
I think that my alias is older than almost everybody's here.
I checked, because I couldn't remember when I was born...and I see that Ihub gave birth to me on Oct 21, 2003!!! My goodness....that's been over 4 years ago!
I remember that day well....sitting in my office...looking out at the horse pasture....watching Sunshine & Chapos gallop in the fields....what stock was I in then? Heck if I know...there have been so many over the years. But we never forget our first, do we? Parker Drilling...
Well...goolleeee, I'm just gittin myself all kinds of an education here. Here's the definition for a roni.
Referred to in Vanilla Ice's beatbox song, "Havin' a Roni," is a virgin, according to Ice himself. However, the term is used often in hip hop, and is short for "tenderoni," which is defined as a "sweet girl."
The second definition of it describes me to a "T". hahaha
Hey ma! Didja know? I'm a tenderoni! Now that's not macaroni! That's tenderoni! That'sa me!
Hi shorts!
I didn't know what the word havic meant, so I looked it up in the dictionary. Cracked up when I saw all of the definitions.
HAVIC. Havilande · Havin a beast · havin a mare · havin it · HAVIN THANGS · havin' a roni · Havin' a Tuesday · Havin' It Large · havin-ass bitch · having ...
www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=HAVIC
Now then....what's a roni? It's after HAVIN THANGS. Guess I'll have to go look that up as well.
ROFLMAO!!!
Ok....that one took me by surprise. Gotta give one to ya on that one. Cracked me up!
And with that....now I really DO have to go!
Everyone have a great day, ya hear?
wormwood,
Thanks...glad to oblige. (It's so nice to be appreciated as a writer). :) hahaha
Hey bearclaw...
The thing that I find most interesting about today's announcement is where PHGI has, in some cases, been having ongoing discussions with some companies for several weeks and that they will be in active negotiations with the companies involved.
Also, did you notice that the other company that bb recently bought has some new out today as well? Looks as though things might finally be coming together.
Ok, gotta run soon....everyone have a nice day!
