y: Alyce Reply To: 56011 by rhill72 Thursday, 2 Mar 2000 at 11:19 PM EST Post # of 56096 Alyce is angry that the name of the banker wasn?t posted with the PR. I made a prediction for 100,000,000 share days based on outrageous news. Hasn?t anyone linked the dots and understood what would happen with the coupling of TSIG?s name and some of those mentioned here the past 2 days. JP Morgan, Lehmann or Merrill would gain the attention of serious investors that wouldn?t think twice about buying a start up internet stock trading at $0.50 if it was associated with one of those companies. (Remember many of these companies are also publicly traded and their symbols would go out over the wires for the whole investing world to see.) Name one penny stock, reverse split, dilutive disaster that was ever associated with any of those companies. You can't. These companies don't do one trick ponies. They also bring along a big bag of other 1st class associations and merger candidates. Acquisitions etc. Get the picture? TSIG doesn't need $40,000,000 for operations. Remember a recent PR outlining $1,000,000 per quarter in overhead. That's real. What's the other $36,000,000 for? Hello hello... Anybody home? As the price began to move up more and more investors would get on in fear of missing the next Amazon. Where it would come to rest is anyone?s guess. It would be a lot more than $0.50. Probably up in the mid single to close to double digit area. 100,000,000 shares a day are just around the corner. I?ve been busy, been traveling but buying all the shares I can. Al, and still your best friend

................"A GREAT STORY"................ One day when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, "why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He really must be a nerd". I had quite a weekend planned ( parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon) so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running towards him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying and landed on the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes. My heart went out to him, so I jogged over to him and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I saw a tear in his eye. I handed him his glasses and said "those guys are really jerks. They should get lives". He looked at me, said "Hey, thanks". There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude. I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never see him before. He said he had gone to private schools before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before. We talked all the way home, and I carried his books. He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He said yes. We hung out all weekend and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him. And my friends thought the same of him. Monday morning came and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again. I stopped him and said, "Damn boy, you are really gonna build some serious muscles with this pile of books every day." He just laughed and handed me half the books. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were Seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown and I was going to Duke. I knew that we would always be friends, and the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a doctor and I was going for a business degree, on a football scholarship. Kyle was Valedictorian of our class. I teased him about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. I was so glad it wasn't me having to get up and speak. Graduation day, I saw Kyle, he looked great. He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school, filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than me and all the girls love him. Boy, sometimes I was jealous. Today was one of those days. I could see that he was nervous about his speech, so I went back and said "Hey big guy, you'll be great, you always are". He looked at me with one of those looks (a really grateful one) and smiled. "Thanks" he said. As he started his speech, he cleared his throat and began. "Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach, but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story about a friend". I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his Mom wouldn't have to do it later and was carrying all his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. "Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable." I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and Dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize it's depth. I could barely control my tears. Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture, you can change a person's life for better or for worse. God puts us all in each other's lives to impact one another in some way. Look for God in others. You now have two choices. You can 1) pass this on to your friends or 2) delete it and act like it didn't touch your heart. As you can see, I took choice number 1. "Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly"
