I want to thank ALL of you for the very kind notes and emails. This is my youngest sons last summer before going away to college and I plan on spending the extra time with him. Dadd and Dougc...CHCR finally sent me my first $20K check :o)

You know, this is a very cool group of investors. Some very wise.....some with industry knowledge.....some jacks of all trades.....some that don't write well but have alot to say.

I sincerely expect to meet some of you one day. We haven't sat here for years for nuttin.....it WILL happen.

Keep your eyes peeled for the ole' co headfake. What better way to get them to meet your price. Don't believe everything they tell you!

Keep the faith.....and your eye on the prize.

Most Sincerely,
BB

P.S. "R" I pray for your speedy recovery. Listen to your caregiver as she probably does know best :o)

Only for those that listen to the Oily route. Those that don't care to listen should probably disregard the rest of this post:

"Alea lacta est"

means:

"The die has been cast". This post came nearly a month after oily's previous "2 * pi" or not "2 * pi" post which sure sounds as if a deal had been placed on the table. What exactly does "the die has been cast" mean?


"The phrase is still used today to mean that events have passed a point of no return, that something inevitable will happen, i.e., he cannot take back what he has done, much like the gambler who has already thrown the die."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alea_iacta_est


or......


"The die is cast."
by Mark Israel

does NOT mean "The metal template has been molded." It's what Julius Caesar said on crossing the river Rubicon to invade Italy in 49 B.C. The "die" is a gambling die, and "cast" means thrown. The phrase means "An irrevocable decision has been made."

http://alt-usage-english.org/excerpts/fxthedie.html


Since this Oily post directly followed Oily's "2 * pi" post, it would seem a deal was agreed to in some fashion (read: handshake since no 8K has been prepared)? It doesn't cost to listen unless you trade on what you hear. Interesting concept...."an irrevocable decision has been made".

Now, do you listen to the co (I call it a headfake) or does oily's description of events hold water?

Slow start weather wise in MI.....but is now conducive to a power walk. GLTA.
