Went to $8 or a little short of that and out on the first run. I hung around and bought again and then watched Tim and Tokyo show up and hammer the stock and pump it for all it was worth. I jumped out and into PNLK 5 or 6 different times. I was wet behind the ears but understood enough to see the control that fear and greed had on a stock.

For months I lurked on the FAMH thread and watched Ira Monas manipulate that entire crowd and watched Little Engine pee off everyone that was cheerleading over there. Jane with no shoes on was my favorite and I still take time to hop on the freeway ramp and check her postings.

These were a few of my earliest and most valuable lessons learned. My naivety (sp?) about posters was taught much by seeing how greed manipulated the small bb stocks. I took the time to dig and research and learned the rules of free markets and how easily manipulated bb stocks are.

What I eventually came away with was the understanding that small pink sheets and bb's are great training and only risk throw away money on them and take profits ruthlessly.

Never love the cheatin sombitches they will cheat on you.

Many more lessons since those days but like a first love the memory of those days has a fresh quality about it.

HI JANE!!!!! I still visit your slippers of orchids on the hill behind my house. Hands On, it is wonderful to hear from you also. I still can see your candles burning brightly for all those that you light the way for. I know they helped me to find a way through a very dark period. A personal thank you for your prayers. I Want you all to know that most of everything settled down in my life. The only problem was I had to take a job. Has been a good experience to get my hands dirty again. I am back to my fighting weight and feeling good! Thanks for the howdy.

So like Jimmy Durante used to say, "Goodnight Mr. Patience, wherever you are."

Well it was something like that.
