Boy, Texas A&M and Oklahoma are getting after it!! No. 2 Manziel (sp) is awesome for just a Freshman!!
True shore, it's used inappropriately a lot. No big deal my Northern friend. Gets confusing when someone says one million and writes it as "M".
Vera_lynn, great post! Can I inject a little house cleaning comment here. The correct symbol for one thousand is "M" or "m"; thus, one million is "MM" or "mm". The letter "k" also stands for one thousand but in metric measurements, not in a monetary sense. "k" is used inappropriately often in the wrong way, just as "M" is used in regard to one million. Clear as mud..
Had to leave the sidelines and say, "Hey Vera! We miss you girl!"
Hey Info, good luck in Houston with your new career move. We'll miss you in the deep South as we hide behind our guns and bibles.....You might find a "hot spot" somewhere in Houston to fire-up your laptop and stay in touch with the Fuse gang.
So, jelly, with DROP on the pump & dump list for 10 days what does it mean? Is this info. speculation or a legit. "heads up" for us investors?
Great products, now where's the comparable advertising? Where's all the jocks? People can't buy what they don't know about. Even lowly Warrior Energy is doing spot television ads.
Smitty316, excellent point. Hope the folks at Fuse read your post!
This is probably off topic so sorry for butting in. Warrior Energy has been doing spot ads on Fox News channel about their new trans-dermal energy booster. Fuse needs this type of advertising to get the word out to the public about the drops and Enerjel. Check out this link: http://www.dailymotion.com/WarriorMist#video=xrv2yw
I agree Captain, but only if Fuse starts a major advertising campaign of some form or fashion. John Q. Public has not heard of Fuse, DROP, or Powerfuse/Electrofuse. 5 Hour Energy spends tons of $$$ on advertising. It will be hard for Powerfuse to unseat it in the near term. And, let's not forget that there are a number of successful energy products already on the market for Powerfuse to compete against.
Info, you're a wise man irregardless of what your wife says.
Shore, just read over all the posts for today and this earlier one caught my attention. I'm sure everyone has heard the phrase (or some rendition of it) that, "Before going into battle, know the strength of your enemy". On that note, one would think that Fuse knows (or definitely should know) that "berry blast" is a defined flavor already associated with an existing "energy" product. Why in the world would they use that terminology!? A huge mistake, IMO. And, hey, for months all of us longs have dissected over and over again the words "sublingual" and "transdermal" as they apply to the Fuse products. Here we go again with perhaps an explanation from Hebert. IMHO, all this should be pretty simple and straight forward, either the drop's (Powerfuse & Electrofuse) active components are absorbed in the mouth and under the tongue or they're NOT. If NOT, then Powerfuse & Electrofuse aren't products exhibiting breakthrough technology. Fuse needs to put this topic to rest once and for all. Still clear as mud to me.
<Lane Change> Shore, hope things are starting to return to some form of normalcy in your neck of the woods. Good luck my friend.
Teva may be looking at sublingual administration of the cancer drug. A lot of cancer drugs are tough on the ole belly so sublingual may be the key delivery process being discussed behind closed doors...hmmm..sounds good to me.
Shore, another example that muddies the water even more: Wal-mart sells a B12 supplement that states "sublingual" on the box!! Used the product for about a year. Fuse should be able to do the same thing with the drops, IMO.
Shore, I gave you guys some technical information about DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) a few weeks back. It's readily absorbed through the skin. If you rub some drops onto your palms, you'll get a cucumber taste in your mouth. And, yes, cucumber juice contains DMSO. It's also used in WD40. People used to rub WD40 on their joints for arthritis pain. DMSO is a unique chemical and has many, many uses.
Shore, after Katrina, us Southerners know exactly what your family is going through. It's a tough hand to be dealt. There will be better days ahead. God bless your family and the other people affected by this devastating weather.
Shore, be sure to "hunker down" for this perfect storm! :)
Forget e-mailing IR, HSmith is going to call "Tuffy" directly for answers.
To refer to Fuse's CEO at "Tuffy" or "Fluffy" is both disrespectful and amateurish.
Rick85 & Shore, DMSO is found in cucumber juice as well as WD40. It's highly absorbed through the skin. For years people have been rubbing both of these on joints for arthritic pain- works for some, not for most. Rick is right, should not be any kind of competition for Fuse's products.
Shore, Info, rick85, et al, thanx for the kind words and encouragement. As you guys already know, I'm heavily invested in DROP so at various times I get pretty passionate (pointed comments) when discussing Fuse and related topics. My goal, while on this board, has been to capture as much pertinent information and positive constructive comments as possible in order to make conscious business decisions about buying/selling DROP. Obviously, at times there's going to be negative feedback posted and that's ok, it's expected, but recently there's been a lot of off topic verbal attacks that have gone on uncontested. We don't need this; we need to be discussing Fuse business plans, distribution developments, consumer feedback, potential acquisitions, financing scenarios & options, licensing agreements, and the list goes on and on. Hopefully in the near term our board will get "back on track" and focus on some of the topics listed above. For me personally, it's gonna have to be a wait and see stance at the present time. Not going away, just listening for a while. Thanx again guys. GLTA
Vera_lynn, gonna miss you girl! You always post some good stuff about Fuse and related subjects.
Back at ya Aksys, good luck with your investments.
Rick85, how about loaning me some low interest money to buy more $0.11 stock; certain family members still won't let me raid my grand-children's college fund!
Shore, while you're chasing all the little tidbits of information on Fuse, don't forget how to "hunker down".
Info., your team is looking great. Maybe they're already using the drops?
Question, anyone? Thought that if you signed-up initially on the poweredbyfuse website (before Enerjel samples went out) you would also automatically get the drop samples. Am I wrong here?
Guys (and ladies), we're making all of this news too hard to sort out. It's not rocket science. A company like Fuse is NOT going to put out a detailed PR, prior to a EXTREMELY IMPORTANT announcement, without already knowing the RESULTS and CONTENT of the announcement beforehand. That would definitely be the exception and not the rule if they did so. As I've stated several times before, IMO, I believe Fuse is positioning itself as a major buyout target or they're taking calculated steps to pull off a significant merger. Look, the Fuse products are lining up nicely for sequential release, distribution avenues have been established, social media advertising is becoming more robust every day, and now some of the final pieces of the puzzle have just come aboard. I saw early on a lot of potential with Fuse & DROP; now, I'm very very close to being ecstatic!! The upcoming announcement is going to be HUGE. If I could double my position in DROP at this point, I would execute it today! If this is being overly optimistic so be it. My gut feeling rarely lets me down and right now it's saying hold the course because the firework's show is getting ready to start.
Me too, Shore, me too!
Bay, it is privately owned and not run very efficiently. Found this out after some research. I had a minor panic moment there when my friend used the comment "pulled from the shelf". Isolated event.
Actually, it was a friend that went to the GNC store. I'm checking with another GNC in a larger sister city to get their take on the product availability. This sounds like just a local situation with a private owned GNC. Thanx for responding guys.
UHD, the manager said "pulled off shelf", not just a situation of running out of product. Strange? Must be only something locally going on.
Anyone!! Local GNC has pulled EnerJel off the shelf; what's going on???
bgrass, the way you lambast DROP everyday, it only makes sense that you should be flooding IR with e-mails. Why leave it to someone else to do your dirty work.
make and tac, not surprised at all to see Maj. Dickerson at some event like this promoting Fuse products. A number of posters downplayed the move of Dickerson coming aboard (like, what can he do?). Here's a hint, once again. Fuse= Dickerson= military= drops. Does anyone want to speculate how big an affect it could have on Fuse if the military started making the drop products a std. issue item? Holy cow, here comes $2/share!! Gotta hand it to Fuse management, they absolutely KNOW what they're doing. Patience everyone, this is going to be a fun ride when it gets started.
Griff100, we present you with the "At-a-boy" award for the week! Your question about how a stock goes to sub-zero was priceless. :)
Thanx info., you nailed it!
So ok, HSmith, who did you talk to at the FDA and what did they say exactly? Remember, this is the "no spin zone", facts only....
Bassfishin, just back tracking a little to your post yesterday. You commented on the army general working with Fuse. We (the board) had several discussions a while ago about the use of Fuse products by the military. We felt at the time that the drops would be a perfect fit for soldiers in the field. For example, they battle fatigue and dehydration a lot, especially if they're stationed in the middle east. A hook-up with the military would be HUGE for Fuse!
Malekabal42, not critiquing your post but how can you say the following: "Looks like revenues are not increasing fast enough. (if at all)"? Maybe I can learn something here.
