A group I once worked with had a little motto.

The motto was "The wrong thing to do is nothing."

When one is feeling helpless or confused about what to do, the easiest thing to do is NOTHING.

Even knowing this to be true from half a lifetime of experience, my life right now is a classic example of this. I am not all that happy in my job and even in the city I am living in. And yet I am at a stage in my life where I am afraid of going backwards so I don't do anything about it. At least I have a job and a place to live which is more than can be said for a growing number of Americans (the vast majority of whom are willing to work if given the opportunity). People, myself included, are AFRAID. Unless you have real money these days you are afraid to make any big changes or big purchases. This can be seen across every economic indicator. People do not want to buy or sell a house or even a car. Small businesses do not want to take on new people. Banks do not want to give loans. Etc. Fear makes people do stupid things, like TRY to make a QUICK buck in the penny market.

This little saying of "The wrong thing to do is nothing" has a corollary. And that is "Something CAN be done about it." In other words, doing nothing is always the wrong choice AND we do nothing because we feel like nothing CAN be done about it.

Take Washington. It would take 1000 seasoned police officers 1000 years of investigations and arrests to clean up that mess. Our government is practically Thomas Jefferson's worst nightmare. We have something that is so owned by special interests it has forgotten that it exists by and for THE PEOPLE. THE REAL PROBLEM: We (Americans) talk about it and DO NOTHING.

The wrong thing to do is nothing.

Let's bring this back to TELVUE because it does apply here.

For existing shareholders and people that have been watching this thing but not getting into it, THE WRONG THING TO DO IS NOTHING. You should know by now that waiting for the other guy to do something is not working. To beat the market makers at their little game you have to buy from them the shares they just don't have but are pretending to have. You know, like when someone buys 200 shares and the market maker shorts 200 shares. If they really had shares, why not sell them - why short them?

Forget about the short matter for a minute, since some would try to convince you market makers don't short OTC stocks -- hang on I fell out of my chair laughing and have to get back up.

THIS STOCK IS UP FOLKS. Pull up a 5 year graph of this thing and look at it real good.

Bloomberg.com has the most accurate one. Here's the link but you still have to click on the tab for a 5 year graph to pull it up.

NOW LOOKING AT THAT GRAPH CAN ANYONE HONESTLY SAY THIS STOCK DOESN'T HAVE A LOT GOING FOR IT?

You want instant gratification, buy a scratch off. You want a safely expanding stock with a bright future, you've got one here in TELVUE.

In a world full of uncertainties you are looking at a company that has been steadily building and expanding for the future. Add to the mix the fact the market makers have been toying with this one for years and shorting the SNOT out of it and WE'RE STILL UP and you know you have a winner. Add to this that the Chairman of the Board of this company is a self-made BILLIONAIRE that owns 37M shares out of 48M shares and you know you have a winner. And for good measure, add the fact the company has had 4 really good press releases in a month and is on the cutting edge of broadcast technology. Then ask yourself why you are not buying any shares (more if you have some, or a few or many if you don't).

THE WRONG THING TO DO IS NOTHING.

You don't have $5000 to throw at this stock right now?

Fine. Take $50.00 and buy some shares. Who cares what you pay for them - if you can get them cheaper than the Ask, hurrah for you.

Buy shares. Cheaply as you can get them. And hold them for when the fat lady sings.

And when the fat lady hits High C you can tell yourself that YOU DID SOMETHING, something really good.
