DGIV: the next phase??

Is it given that SEC will by default let DGIV to trade on July 22nd? Does DGIV have to do anything to make it happen?

Also, according to Cheryl, she thinks the questions are related to previous announcements of spring last year. Jimmy supposedly has given enough proof of his statements about Egypt and Taiwan to SEC. Now, if SEC is telling that DGIV is to be punished for that this late, what can DGIV do? Say "My fault" and accept some sort of penalty.

Anyway, Sheldon Jeffray is supposedly an SEC-matters honcho; he better earn his pay. From the look of it, it does not seem that DGIV has done something grotesquely wrong. Let's get out of this SEC mess. Jimmy needs to be here, pushing for it.

Business is still on; equipment is being paid for; revenue is being booked; financials supposedly have been finished by auditors and waiting for SEC attorney's blessing. All these are good signs. To the more experienced, have you seen these signs with other "halted" stocks in past? Or are we looking at this with colored glasses?

Cheers,
Partha

Good Morning Everyone,

Wow, Responding to myself!! I hope I like the story for today?
How many of us are going to be thinking when the DGIV reunion comes around, that maybe they just might not show up because of things that were said here? What a pitiful waste that would be. I hope to see everyone including those I argue with, expecially JJJ........

Class Reunion

I was minding my own business a few weeks ago when I got
“the call” - that dreaded, shrill ringing of my telephone bearing
news just short of a death in the family. It was a former high
school classmate asking my assistance in our 20-year class
reunion.
Could it be 20 years already? I shuddered. Cold chills went
up and down my spine as tiny beads of sweat popped out on my
forehead. What had I done with my life the past 20 years? My
mother told me I'd have to deal with this some day, but I had
laughed it off, just like I laughed off those embarrassing pink
plastic curlers she used to wear in her hair. (I picked up a set
at a garage sale just last week. Got a great deal on them, too!)
It's amazing how a brief phone call can totally turn one's
life upside down. Suddenly, I began hearing those 1970s songs
(now known as “oldies”) in a different arrangement, realizing
that Mick Jagger was over 50, “Smoke on the water” never did make
any sense at all, and my “Seasons in the Sun” had literally faded
into oblivion. Had the sun set on me already?
I glanced in the mirror. (Okay, I stared in the damned
mirror.) I examined every tiny little crevice and pore, starting
with my hairline, down past those patronizing “smile lines” to
the base of my neck. No double chin yet, I thought.
The next few weeks were pure hell. Each day began with a
grueling training program - a 6:30a.m. run in a futile attempt to
bounce off that unsightly baggage that had somehow accumulated on
my thighs overnight. I went shopping for the perfect dress - you
know, the one that would make me look 20 years younger. I found
out that they stopped selling them around 1975. Three dresses
later, I came to my senses. There was only one logical
explanation: I was having a mid-life crisis.
I realized that the funny, crunching noise I heard each
night as I climbed the stairs was really my knees. I had
seriously considered adding potty training to my resume as one of
my greatest accomplishments. Bran flakes had become a part of my
daily routine - and not because they were my favorite cereal. I
held Tupperware parties just so I could count how many friends I
had.
Life just hadn't turned out the way I'd planned. Sure, I was
happy. I had a wonderful husband and two great kids in the center
of my life. But somehow, working part-time as a secretary and mom
hardly fit my definition of someone my classmates had voted as
“most likely to succeed.” Had I really wasted 20 years?
Just about the time I was ready to throw in the towel and my
invitation, my seven-year old tapped me on the shoulder. “I love
you, Mom. Give me a kiss.”
You know, I'm actually looking forward to the next 20 years.

Have a great day all!!
