very fair post, IMO

I received the email about him trying to buy ICTY also. I am not an investor in ICTY...but was curious if the Pastor or someone can clear up why those emails are being sent with "MNTY ICTY" as the subject...also I remember receiving an email from the Pastor for ICTY indicating he was already the CEO of ICTY (it was signed that way at the end of the email)...but again I have not kept up with ICTY that much since I am not an investor in ICTY...only looked at the ICTY site when Invogue mysteriously become a part of ICTY.

Thanks for sharing your honest feelings, and I respect them absolutely.
It is correct, I don't have the $200k in my pocket or bank to buy the shell outright, but then, neither does Jason or James. It's not paid for even now. It's all on credit. That's it in a nut shell. The owner stated a willingness to give it to me on terms that I won't discuss here. Please understand.

Thanks for the kind words balance!

In all my time as moderator on this board, I have tried to be as neutral as possible, trying to see both sides of a clearly questionable investment.

In defense of Phil, I will say this...

I do not think that Phil has attempted anything clandestine in all this time. I remember the time that Phil had driven to Dallas to give us a first hand view of what was going on there. I remember that I called him on his cell phone while he was there taking pictures of the store location next door to Terry's Market. I remember that he was trying to be a diligent person in trying to share the news of what he saw while there. He even posted pictures of the BLUEPRINTS for the store laid out on a drafting table in a storefront that at that time was clearly in need of very much work.

Back at that time, we were all excited about MNTY'S upcoming prospects. I even remember RedRain's periodic visits to the same storefront to update on progress. I remember the BAD TRANSFORMER ordeal. And I also remember when that ordeal was over, and that Jason Brola had finally had the keys to the building turned over to him.

And, I remember the pics that MNTY posted showing the fixtures being installed at that storefront.

If Phil is 'guilty' of anything at all, it might be only in his overexuberance in his hopes that MNTY might possibly succeed. I cannot fault him for overexuberance.

I still believe in the Business Plan of Market 99. I just don't believe that the Brola's are the ones capable of achieving the plan.

A while back, I tossed out the idea on this board about investors getting together to move forward with a "Market99 Plan" of our own.

I know that I have the retail experience to make this a reality for us all.
