This is truly some excellent detective work. And it got me thinking. I started to feel real bad that you have nothing better to do on your weekends. However, as long as you enjoyed yourself, who am I to criticize. VM

Wow, How long did it take you to put that together? Rather obsessive considering anyone over the internet should be taken without a grain of salt. "Tim" may be a 65 year old women living in Clearwater Florida, smokin' cigs and living in a trailer with a small dog, Sparky. Nice vision, eh? No offense, Tim........I have a much better visual of your life! So, you get what you pay for Ivan. Go with experience. Burn me once, shame on you. Burn me twice, shame on me. Wow...... as Vegas said ..... get a life.

I guess the questions for the thread are: Shouldn't Tim be held to the same standard as us? Don't the words at the start of this thread mean anything? Or is Tim so far above us that they do not apply to him? Would you let your child behave this way? (sure, I know, not like you I wouldn't, that's just too easy)

Thank you for another great, very much on topic post. Amazing how people are willing to turn a blind eye for the sake of a stock pick. The same sorta thing is happening on Daniel Miller's thread, where it's being said his dad makes the picks. Hey who cares, as long as the picks are good, right? WRONG. I for one am always interested in how a person makes their picks, not just their success rate. If some guru is hitting 90% but getting the picks from his Ouija board, or the Magic 8 Ball i'm not going to put as much trust in them as a 60% hitter that does the work. If I see someone that is prone to making up stuff, i'm definitely going to weigh that when it comes to blindly following them and their "sources" on a pick. Attack at will. CMB

Ivan, Personally I could care less whether Tim is really Ozzy Osborne, Madonna, living in Portugal or Siam. I could really care less whether Tim plays golf with Arnold Palmer or flies planes with the Blue Angels. I really dont give a darn whether Tim rides the crazy train or drives a pinto. I think all that needs to be taken care of is whether stocks Tim picks as takeovers are taken over or not and Tim's record up to now is stellar. For all you know, I may really be Matilda the Clown and JakeStraw may be the strawman from Oz. If you dont like what happens on this thread, leave. Jnae
