You, too, my friend, have earned only the highest of praises from me.

You had the courage to suggest a Texas barbeque day for us committed NGL longs. And for a long time it was looking like we should have been committed. lol

But now it's all about redemption and we are literally flying like a coupon on the supermarket shelves during a sellout. But this is no sellout, for sure! It's a buy-in of great magnitude.

You know, a year and a half away from hitting eighty years old, I've experienced some serious ups and downs. You bring up ALDW and that was one of my greatest wins ever. And American Airlines was the greatest as I'd bought it for 35 cents when in bankruptcy and listed as a pink; got to sell most at $58 to $62. Just today, about seven years out of BK I found the AAL courts handed me 21 shares finally resolving some or all of the court proceedings following restoration of the company following court proceedings.

But NGL is the grandest winner of all for me as this time I went all out without holding back. Getting older brings some fine rewards like resolving questions about debt obligations and trusting one's instinctual responses. So it wasn't hard adding a few thousand units of NGL this month on margin, convinced the harvest will be mine (ours) and I'll pay back borrowings (margin) at that time.

Outside of margin I owe no money and am well secured financially outside of the stock market.

So it is no surprise to me that my greatest joy is knowing I've been fortunate enough to have contributed to opportunities changing the lives of others. Nothing could mean more to me!

I thank you so much for your attribution. ALDW may be fading into the background but a man's self-worth is measured by the footprint he leaves behind for the benefit of others.

I may be the luckiest one of all here, ironically!
