Can only laugh at this:

"Management continues to assess its ongoing business plan with a view to providing all shareholders with the best opportunity to maximize shareholder value".

Btw, do update the board on your happy water experience.

I don't want to be biased and draw conclusions before trying but I'm pretty sure it's gonna taste like water. :-)

I think I had a couple of cases shipped to the office. I use all my office mates as guinea pigs in my beverage investing forays. Ginger shot testing day was NOT a hit.

Got a 12-pack of Happy Water delivered today, from the back of an unheated truck, cold on arrival. Me and 6 office mates gave it a try. Everyone liked it. The packaging is sleek, professional, and yellow (happy). Not sure if this is a placebo effect but I actually felt a bit "smiley" while drinking. Couple other people got a bit goofy, too.

The water business is complex and crowded, and Happy Water probably doesn't have a chance to gain any significant traction. But after trying it, I think it's chances have doubled from "none" to "slim". It really is a worthwhile try.

I served Happy Water to my kids at dinner tonight. Didn't tell wife or kids of its "function".

Me: Kids, drink your water.
Kids: Why are you being weird, dad?
<Kids drink water.>

Ten minutes of silly giggles ensue. Wife gets annoyed at kids who can't stop laughing. Wife gets annoyed at husband who can't stop laughing, causing kids to laugh even more. Dad declines to inform wife of why kids are laughing. <Kids fall on the sword.>

This stuff might actually work. Ordering 2 more cases tomorrow.
