Agenda
When a lot of money is lost, like in IPM(CF), peoples tempers run very high. Often a nickname, graciously bestowed, can alleviate posters tensions and give everyone a good chuckle. Some nicknames are cruel and often undeserved as I am sure you know, in my book you are, will be, and always have been Zeev Hed, thanks for some informative posts and honest opinions on a wide variety of companies. I don't think your value calculations always agree with mine, but one mans opinion may differ from anothers, without detracting from the worth of either.

Last week when I began posting on the 14 November I found this message in my mailbox.

Gaystroke: When you post to yourself, you are supposed to remember to use your other name.

I responded in kind :

Boob acher, waiting for the axe are you

I completed reading/responding and began to read the thread. At that time it became apparent that the axe had indeed fallen. If my post offended any women using mens monikers or vice versa, I offer my apologies.

Reread what I said in Paper on the IPM(CF). It was all about agendas and outlines, very simple really, what you see is what you get. One of the topics that I have seen come up many times on the IPMCF thread is "who are you". It is actually the main game that is played here on this thread. The whole point of the game is "the small investor", they are the catch. It doesn't matter what another person's agenda may be if you stick to your own.

I will provide a link here that is sure to work.
I think it's there. My "numbers" may be a little off, as you have probably noticed, put your own spin on it.


Paper
I posted it it here.

It should be obvious that I am scissors, thanks Roger.
It might have worked if you had chosen Hehegdeclipper.

Best "modified nickname".
Allan Doyle (previously known by the common name "fearless leader".)
Slick Oily Doyle, or as he is otherwise known "Oily Slick".
This "modified nickname" has some of properties of an original "derived nickname" but it has not been "verified" yet. Imagine that. The original "derived nickname" was unreliable.

Best Try by the "Three ??? " to Make a Nickname
See if you can figure it out, heheheh
???-This denotes whatever you want it to, I can't decide for you.

Nicknames I will Acknowledge as Legitimate
Grace Tone (Not bad, thanks boys)

Sometimes a nickname is introduced which is very appropriate for someone, I will let you readers decide ? If I refer to a participant and unintentionally "manipulate" what they are saying, the best recourse they have would be to simply restate what they said in another fashion and point out to the readers how I manipulated the facts. This is not the most attractive option when trying to net a catch. Any decent person would simply "clarify" the situation. Many times the actions of a poster are as important as the agenda. A "likely" lad on SI was the subject of an interview by yours truly, it really was a fishing trip more than anything, somebody panicked. Sure, you owners have questions, I am not an owner of this stock, obviously.

Whenever you see a post on the topic of IPMCF, just follow the poster around a bit. If you are unsure of what I am actually saying, I didn't say it, I pointed it out in a previous post on the IPMCF thread. I don't know if this post was interesting to any of you little fish or not. I know some of the big fish saw it.

I have provided the OED definition of vivsection for clarity.
vivisection : The action of cutting some part of a living organism; spec. the action or practice of performing dissection, or other painful experiment, upon living animals.

Funniest Thing Said to me Lately on the IPM(CF) thread.

The proper snicker would be:
Hehhehheh
Which would divide into:
Heh heh heh
Please, in the future, try to stay within the snicker guidelines.

Thanks Wildcat, it is really good some times when pressures mount and tensions are building to introduce a little humour onto the IPM(CF) thread.

Cheap Shots on the IPM(CF) thread.
Even I could "likely" do better than this.
OK Greystone, here's a test for you. Who was the moron who said:
I "likely" complained to Jill, heheheh.
If I did it was "likely" about some other post entirely.

I told you all, you only had one hope, and that was that this company is as slick with the yadda yadda yadda as they appear to be.
That hope was of course dashed. It was as I expected.
