Don,

>>>
Is there any truth to the rumor that Reuters is reporting
that a three-way merger is being discussed involving
Microsoft, Justabid.com and bobbrinker.com?
>>>
Justabid.com has no comment at this time; although, I will try to answer your questions. Ha!

>>>
According to the rumor on Fleet Street in London,
Microsoft will issue ten shares of common stock
for each Justabid.com share, and ten shares for
each bobbrinker.com share to form the new behemoth.
>>>
We, I mean Justabid.com..., have no comment at this time...other than we think this offer is slightly below our expectation of twenty-five shares.

Justa refuses to comment at this time.

I think it is fair to say he feels insulted by the offer.

>>>
According to the news service rumor, the new firm
will be renamed Microsoft-Justabob.com and the
new shares will trade on the Big Board under the symbol
MJ. According to the reports, Justabid.com and bobbrinker.com
shareholders will divide about $120 billion in the deal.
>>>
We have no comment at this time.....other than Justa says the deal will NOT be done unless the new symbol is: PAR.

>>>
One fly in the ointment is a report that Justabid.com
CEO Justawerkinstiff wants additional shares in order to
pay for a non compete agreement.
>>>
We have no comment....other than to say we expect these shares would be in excess of the 25.

>>>
Bill Gates says the deal is off if he has to continue to compete with Justabid.com & bobbrinker.com. Any news on this one?
>>>
Yes, money talks. Justa will only do this deal if he thinks it is fair. He doesn't want his creative abilities limited. Justa doesn't care if he rules the world. It is more important that his creative talents not be limited in any way.
