Jim , thanks for the report of your conversation with Hicks. I can not say that I feel particularly better because it seems to be Idcc's position to generally say nothing.
I wonder what the board members do to earn all of their "perks" since the pr department and the hired public relations firm have so little to say as to what the company is really doing. Also, if the matter was so "weighty" that time was spent talking to outside counsel as well as in house counsel and various other people, then why should the stockholders be ignored
I would have like to have heard Hicks' explanation about "there will be an announcement" and then nothing. It is my observation that when the street is told to expect something it and it is not forthcoming then the anxiety grows. It appears that if nothing were to be said then we need an explanation why investors were left "hanging" while everybody else was being consulted.tucker
Jim, I am getting tired of the Double talk that Idcc puts out;
therefore , I will be watching for your post after you talk to Hicks.I feel that the company will shoot square with you. Management in not responding to the accounting information release, in my opinion , was a total lack of regard for the stockholders. Add to that the 50,000 share sale and it has made a trader out of me.I have tried hard to understand the management,but have come to the conclusion that it is looking out mostly for its members. Would not every one of us like to buy only 2000 shares and then coupled with stock picked up through options make million dollar sales?! tucker
rookie, OT Bull needed that. We can not let him get down on himself. As an old coach use to tell me "Hang in there" even when my behind was dragging the ground and there was not enough oxygen on the planet to make breathing easier!! So hang in there Bull! tucker
Corp_Buyer, I normally agree with Lurgio and Bulldzr, but I think that you should continue to work the voters until the last minute and until the polls close.Tucker
Loop, your posts explain it so that even "LIL ABNER" can understand. Remember his "saying" : "Any fool can plainly sees, ah sees"!!tucker
Broken80, I agree that Idcc should respond and the sooner the better. In law it is said "confess and avoid". In accounting the principle " keep it staight"should apply.tucker
Ot to Bulldzr in reply to ge_jim's post. Bull I would not have gotten into this fray except the gentleman wanted to bring the "Cabal" into the debate. I will be glad to hold your coat!
tucker
Loophole, OT Oh come on Bull just ate too much yesterday! I warned that he should be kept away from the food! tucker
Ot john and loop, the AGGIES really do stick together!!!!!!!
tucker
Danny, I would gladly let Bulldzr handled the money, but not the food. He is the size of his signature's Bulldzr.tucker
Chartex, your reasons for voting no as to the options in your post to Bulldzr are good enough for me to vote no. tucker
Joel, what you just posted as to why you vote makes good sense to me and I agreed with most of what you said.tucker
Learning2vest, all that talk about pies in your post to Mickey reminds one who is from the country not to step into cowpies!
tucker
chartex, Ot , the people on this board might think that the members of the "Cabal not to be too bright", but they know that we are honest. Just want to play with a "straight deck" and to only need a pistol in my boot if the other players do!!tucker
Have a great weekend yourself. That goes for the rest of the Board also
chartex, my friend that could be poor advice. Have you ever been through a compliance audit? Believe me , if it is your business that is being audited , it is a long,expensive and time consuming affair. In fact, you have to remind yourself that the IRS agent is not a member of the firm !tucker
jmspaesq', I intend to vote , but it has been my experience that it really is a waste of my time if it is thought that it will change the outcome from what management wants;however, I do think that it does send a message that there is a group out there watching it perform. If the message is strong enough, it can help management avoid a lawsuit by reminding it that it is best to run the company to benefit all!! tucker
Rand, yes money sitting in the pocket makes one no money;however, it can make one feel good. I have no problem with margin or leverage in capital buiding , but it can also haunt one. Be conservative- take care of today and you will have money to invest tomorrow; therefore, I would pay the building indebtness.tucker
Randomwalk, yes the interest is deductible, but dollars saved can help the bottom line! For years I used the loan value of my insurance policies to an advantage, but now, no. The difference in the rate of interest that I now receive on cd's is such that I have repaid the insurance loans. I see no real advantage for Idcc to have such a small loan and to not pay it off. Just my opinion! tucker
Spree, ot , the "Houston Cabal" is a great group of successful,professional and business men and you need to come to Houston and meet with us.We have no special agenda and do not always agree ,but we do want Idcc to succeed! tucker
I agree with you . Enough said.
Spree, in defence of the "Houston Cabal" I can assure you that it is composed of men who are independent and not afraid to be counted. Remember when a Texan does something , he announces it to the world.tucker
Cls, ot Rtd will feed that dog ,3g, pep pills and he will start him on steroids soon. That dog will take off like a "moonshot" and the Idcc group will bankrupt the track with its winnings. I can't wait for the Houston 100 to meet!tucker '' I can't wait to meet teecee ,econ and spree.
Ot cls, I can assure you that rtd is more generous than you know. He is in charge of the tip and he is extremely happy to have that duty as it gives him a chance to do a little pinching!!!! tucker (of the waitress)
Rtd, our meeting at Bonnie's was such a success that the Cabal should keep up the good work. Of course too much success will cause too big an influx of new members and that might be hard to control. We must keep most of our meetings secret and it should be remembered that what is discussed should not become public or the Cabal will lose its effectiveness. We must keep the enemy confused!tucker
Ot Bulldzr, you are confusing me . One more post like the last one and we will be buying you a beanie with a propeller!!!
However, if you can forgive Spree then I can too!! He-ll , who knows!He might be a good addition to the "CABAL"!!tucker
Ot Bulldozer, do not ever call yourself a "ditto head" again or I will have Rtd take your decoder ring and give it to Spree!tucker
Data Rox, I agree that it is possible that we would be further along! tucker
ST1640,OT you are very kind! Thanks. Do you want to be my agent? I have my own Script-writer Tucker
Jim, OT I am the handsome one in the blue shirt next to the wall and 2nd in line from the camera. The first one is Rockett.tucker
Bulldzr Ot You are posting a bit late this morning! Did the celebration last night put you down this morning?tuxker
chartex, I agree with you. If management would state its intentions as to the options , I might think it a good idea and support the authorization of more options in the "Kitty"!
tucker
Spree, OT rtd gave you a report, but he neglected to tell you the secret part! You can verify this by asking Data Rox!!!tucker
Jim, Ot We will have to go to two tracks! Rtd likes the dogs and I like the ponies! tucker
rtd, I will be at Bonnie's tomorrow! Paul
Bulldzr, O T while rtd smokes the cornsilks,I will hold your coat while you straighten things out with your posting friend and loop can referee.Of course, Rockett might show the opposition a few "rasslin" holds! tucker
Stinvestor, I once lost a battle with a skunk and had to bury my clothes!!!!Tucker
Mark, OT thanks I have now read the post!tucker
Scooby5, I too was unable to bring the attached report up on my screen! Tucker
Bulldzr, O. T. I have known many judges and the statement "Sober as a judge" in my mind as a result of my experiences,is a total misstatement!tucker
Ot Chartex, we are looking forward to seeing you again on the 6th at Bonnie's,but please stay out of my parking space!!!tucker
OT RTD, May 6th is a good date for me!! Do you want me to put out any disinformation for consumption by non-members. tucker
