My dear friend Pizzabuster 1 passed away early this morning. Words can not express the feeling of loss that his friends and family are experiencing due to the loss of this kind man.
Pizza like all of us had his faults. But underneath it all, he was one of the most sincere and generous and kind-hearted people I have ever had the pleasure to know.
His passing as left a hole in many lives. I look forward to the day when we meet again on the other side of this life.
Rest in Peace my dear friend, you will always be in my thoughts and prayers.

$FRTD rewards shareholders Fortitude with a special share issuance. S1 to be filed ....
No R/M BS to content with, FRTD shareholders getting a gift.
fed up with all the bullshit! Just trying to keep it real ;)
Board of directors needs to find someone to step up and take this over, throw out all of Karen's bogus crap, sell anything of value and Reverse merge an entity into this company and go forward.
Once new ceo is in place current board needs to be removed as they were complacent during this whole ordeal.
New CEO and New direction is the only chance this has. Anyone know of anyone who would like to be the new CEO, all they need is a real company to place here.
This company is listed as being inactive according to the state of florida, hmmm...
Is this another company Norman Birmingham is looking to snatch up so he can load it with debt from his buddy Rick Papaleo, put a front man in as CEO move the price up a bit and then dilute the hell out of it, while the two hide from the world and use some stooge who will probably deserve the rep he gets for going along with the plan.

FRTD- crazy day of trading today... MM'S shook the tree down to 0054 bypassing bids to fill 1 million shares. Closed 0074 on over 3M traded.
I think the company needs to give shareholders some updates on what they have going on, they have been silent, which is not always a bad thing. But peeps need to hear something to keep them motivated..
Peeps need to step up and get off the bid and start hitting the ask on FRTD, otherwise she will never move, liquidity dryin up fast
FRTD- sunrise once again playing games on the ask.. showing 10K took 35K. and he never moved, criminal IMO
Mine as well ! FRTD going to take the 82's, let's see what the MM's are hiding on that ask...
my Favorite stock right now
FRTD - looks like peeps are playing this one just right, accumlating all they can under a penny, locking down the float. Hearing rumors of big things coming...

During his career with Pfizer, Chris was a consistent high achiever while earning several top specialty and hospital sales performance awards, including a number one ranking as national sales representative of the year. Cuzzola has extensive training in various disease states including infectious diseases. In addition to family and professional passions, Chris remains dedicated to causes associated with advancing education and research.
Dr. Anthony J Colantonio - Chief Technology Officer - Dr. Colantonio completed fellowship training in Interventional Pain Medicine at the Oregon Health and Science University, residency training at Duke University in Anesthesiology, and medical and undergraduate education at Georgetown University and is a Diplomat of the American Board of Anesthesiology and the American Academy of Pain Management. Dr. Colantonio is the Director of the Clinic for Specialty Pain Services at Meadville Medical Center, with a clinical focus upon neuromodulation therapy and geriatric care. Dr. Colantonio is a regional key opinion leader for numerous pharmaceutical and medical device companies and a national speaker for Pfizer Pharmaceuticals.
As a clinician-inventor, Colantonio is a tireless advocate for patients and medical providers and has dedicated his entrepreneurial career to identifying critical healthcare problems and solving them with innovative products and services. Anthony holds two utility patents through the USPTO and six patents pending. As the Chief Medical Officer of the Life Science Division, Dr. Colantonio leads the research and development efforts from initial product design to bench-top testing, clinical trials, and final product validation through the company’s regulatory and quality efforts. Dr. Colantonio plays a critical role in the development of professional partnerships with leading healthcare institutions, and key opinion leaders in the fields of anesthesia, interventional pain management, and infection prevention services with specific emphasis upon the reduction of healthcare acquired conditions (HACs). "
Given the sad history of this shell prior to the new management and the new field of endeavor undertaken, it is understandable that some may be hesitant to take a position. But while some sit on the sidelines, others are accumulating all they can of this dynamic company, while the PPS is still cheap.
It is true that the new CEO has his work cut out for him, giving the past mismanagement and uncaring displayed towards shareholders, as one convertible after another has pounded this stock under the old management. That has all changed, the printing press has stopped. And as new investors step up it is plain to see that the flow of stock being sold into the market has slowed. Once this company starts releasing expected news, the PPS will rise.
Now would be a good time for you to take one more good look at FRTD.
Thank you chazaq...
Why I think FRTD should be part of your investment strategy.
Fortitude Group Inc. is now under the direction of Thomas Parilla. This once beaten and battered shell finally has a CEO and management team that is up to the task of building a real viable company. FRTD recently acquired Legacy Life Science (L2S).
The L2S premium product portfolio contains the Comprehensive Airway Management System consisting of five, patented FDA approved products ready for worldwide distribution and sales. The Comprehensive Airway Management System is engineered to significantly reduce and prevent respiratory distress in the perioperative procedural sedation environment (anesthesia). A common scenario in peri-operative procedural sedation involves degradation of patient airway monitoring and management; and therefore, constitutes the designation as a Hospital Acquired Condition or (HAC) for respiratory related distress.
The company is best described as:
Fortitude Group Inc. develops practical solutions for healthcare with direct holdings, subsidiaries and or joint ventures. The Company’s service-product portfolio includes premium FDA approved medical devices and advanced technologies engineered to prevent the risk associated healthcare acquired conditions and improve clinical outcomes.

Thanks LB, I have been hovering around the board waiting until I thought I had something of substance to post.
GLTY - GLTA !!
Wishing you a happy easter as well z...
Holy CRAPOLA
Afternoon z...
FRTD cycling, still not enough volume to break her out. I guess we are eating through the remainder of whatever convertible was put into place by past management. I would also guess that trades who bought down in the 002 to 004 range are getting out as well,
All we have to do is keep soaking up shares, when inventory dries up watch out....
Thanks for the reply, good to know . FRTD is really getting primed, won't be to much longer before she goes IMO.
GLTY - GO FRTD !!!
a little bit of a shake today = FRTD clearing out weaker hands and locking the float down..
Besides the ask slapping going on, could use better bid support !!
FRTD - Golden Cross !
