DNR actually recommends that Brown Lake Trout from Lake Michigan consumption be limited to two a year. I don't think pregant women should eat any. At 10 to 12 pounds they're a heck of a fight. Even Chuck would ignor the mercury for that stuff.
Give a man a fish and he's probably ask for tartar sauce.
Remind me. Was there a new date set for the competition?
Enlighten the uninformed on what a christmas tree is?

So you're "west" of the Mississippi, but went to Kirkwood? Where at? I'm in New Melle.

Was Lowman suspended from this board? While there is an ethical question as pertains to moderators being involed in the competiton, (in the same way as employees and family members are not eligible in certain contests. Conflict of interest) I would argue on his behalf that it was done for fun and saw nothing wrong with his silly posts. Whoever set up the contest should have laid some ground rules beforehand. I for one have found his posts invaluable to following EDEX. Lowman is this board.

It was stated many months ago that a well costs apprx $720,000. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Such as, we heard how deep Hardeman was this morning. What about Mesa? Do we have to depend on VYEY for information? Thanksgiving is not very far away. Growing in anticipation.
Today I considered Hardeman and the incredible potential of 100 wells. Add to this Mesa, its potential, and the mysterious Colorado project that "will make Mesa look like peanuts" and the other projects. Its awesome, all that's going on with this little company. With all this they have to hit something.
(FWIW When it comes to oil Tom could kick Chucks butt blind folded) ;)

I agree with wtctexas. This is getting old. Lets get back to oil men.

But Enitowok has to have a post office to be official? Right?
The random initials after the bid just identify you from another in case there's a tie. A tie will be drawn from a hat.
Two days left? A lot can change between then and Dec 1st.
Just pay me in edex stock please.
I'm sticking by my original .25 I think its reasonable and doable. (Of course I'll go for 10 times that if it happens) I'm looking long term and not planning on bailing to make a quick buck. I think the long term rewards are to great.

Gas already detected at 2000ft? Cool!
It will be interesting to see if this loosens any wallets today. (The updates on drilling depths have me hooked. Keep up the good work)
WC2
Lowman! Just scrolled down and read the rest of the message that was off my screen. Had me going there for a moment. CIMB
In all honesty, whip me, beat me, hate me for what I'm about to say, "Why would Daddy Deep Pockets care that the bit is spinning in the ground?" Dry wells are spudded every day. PIP must prove itself. Then the deep pockets will engage. We whip ourselves into a frenzy on this board, but what about the unknowns outside this board? There's a danger to becoming emtionally involved in a stock. I think that there will still be more buying opportunities after the PR excitement, probably at cheaper prices than now, then leading to higher prices as the time gets nearer to hit. Then if we hit... watch out! I get scared when I hear that people are putting all their eggs in one basket. What if it doesn't work? You need to protect yourself. From one who's learned the hard way. Now launch your spears.

6:39 a.m. 50*F Everyone must be sleeping in. Anticipating some good news today.
WC2
Does it really matter? The well gets done when it gets done. The cost is what it costs. When it comes to frugality, Tom could squeeze milk out of a buffalo nickle. Look at the video presentation. No overhead. My goodness, he brought his stuff in a brown paper bag. I've been told that Tom's office is 1000 square feet. Bare bones. He's not even getting paid. How many of us believe that much in our cause? If you ever wanted someone minding your store, he is the man.
What matters is when that sweet black gold and that high power gas springs to the surface.
My strategy is long term. I don't worry about anything, especially timing. Sit back and wait. Let Tom do the worrying. Be happy. ;)
WC2
Do tell.
If I had to guess, from watching the video and my knowledge of Colorado I would guess we're talking horizontal drilling? Oil shale??
What's the deal?
Another monring in paradise. 34 degrees. The sun will be coming up soon. Hardeman keeps drilling, drilling, drilling. Mesa is coming too, and with people loading up on just maybe a few more shares. Go EDEX!
You mentioned the "Colorado" drilling? Did you mean Eldorado, or New Mexico, or is this something I have not heard about?
WC2
Came across this today: Does Big Oil have to Get Bigger to Survive?
A genuinely interesting article as to why Eldorado's holdings could be so valuable:

And some complain about giving tax breaks to big oil!
5:42 A.M. CST The grass is green the flow'rs is ris', I wonder where my oil rig is?
Good news to hear about Thursday. That's the way things work. We've had a lot of patience so far. God grant me the grace to stretch that patience just a little farther.
WC2
Here's a neat little web-site where this know-nothing learned something about drilling oil. Do most of us really understand what incredible effort it takes to get that black gold out of the ground? Nice schematic of a rig.

If you watch Tom's video, he says that "a dry hole will be a tax write off." Then they can drill another. At $720,000 a hole, you don't want too many of those. My grandfather struck on his first; the next two were dry. He quit after that.
WC2
Nice close at 15. Liked how the volume shot up today. We'll see what the momentum looks like Monday when the announcement comes out. I think we'll be going into interesting territory this coming week.
WC2
Sorry, I just read the old posts and saw the correct format. Put me in at .3500MP
This is only the second time I've posted. I've been lurking here for months, enjoying the discussion, and rooting Tom on. I've watched the video 3 times now, each time wanting to increase my portfolio. At the same time, I know enough not to put all my eggs in one basket. Once the excitement wears off, there will be a chilling out period. My prediction is .35 by December.

Two days ago I heard that the "clutch" went out on the rig. Rather than repair it they decided to replace the whole assembly. FWIT
