Good Bye Jack!,

There was a movie long ago, "The Good Bye Girl"
i think was the title. Comedy/Drama w/ Happy Ending.

A very old Chinese saying, as follows:

"It ain't over until its over"

gpgi not yet determined
using cash only as a measurement
as either a
good bye
or a
good buy

(to B continued)

Jack - you are correct again. doug & thor have yapped long enough to kill what was once an active informative thread.

They both are too shallow to actually call the company and ask questions, just content to sit back and throw crap. I don't care if their crap is correct or not.

I enjoyed learning different things from Chucka (no not spelling or decimals), technical stuff from zeev, even your musings were often entertaining or fattening. But alas, all those people have gone on to other places where the scurrilous dialog is less boring. The badmouth brothers have succeeded in killing the dialog here . Do you think these 2 rascals are out buying these cheap shares they helped drive down? Just a thought?

See ya around,
jack parker

The End is the End, by Good Bye Jack!

Reminds me of a short & true story.

... the lady asked for 1/2 pound of salami, sliced thin.

The young kid behind the display case reached in and placed
what was about 1 inch in length left of what started out
as about a foot long and hard as a ****on any woman wishes
to dream about pointing in her "welcomed" direction.

Maybe that was the reason the lady shouted at the young man,
being reminded that being told "I Love You" never resulted
in those words being displayed.

No Walk to match the Talk.
Talk a foot, walk an inch.
Need a foot, get an inch.
No wonder that she will "Walk a mile for a Camel."

So the lady shouted "I don't want to pay full price
for what the store sells at a discount, those end pieces
gathered together into a package, or used to make those
in store made subs."

The young boy was at that age where twice a day is easy
and desired, and up to five possible. But need a place
of privacy, and living at home with Mom & Dad while still
in highschool. Something like a retired man at age 68
saying that now I have the free time and money, but not
no more my youth to do those things I wanted to do when
I was young but low on cash and working full time.

ok.

The young boy heard the lady snap at him, but was not
frazzled at all. Still wet behind the ears, yes,
but he also had that quick mind, uncluttered with what
Life is waiting to dump onto him, the good bad and ugly.

ok ok.

The young boy had a reply to her anger,
and yes it was not a nice one,
but reflects this boys ability to deal
with truth and honestly in a NOT manner.

Yes yes. Prime Global material for management.

Yes yes yes. Boys name was jenSin A. twiTurd III.

The boy replied "Lady this what I hold in my hand,
this 1 inch length of meat that once was a 12 incher,
yes I agree what you see is what you see,
but what I have is not the "end", but the "beginning",
as 2 days ago I sold the wrong end of this salami first,
I sold the "end" by mistake first, so what I have here
is the "beginning" not the "end" as you think.

ok lady???

Ya, really ok, like jenSin selling to shareholders
the "metal on the table" before being able to sell it
to the bank.

twiTurd tells of an ending without first doing a beginning.

But lets end this story, as it is not a short one,
but started long before I joined this thread,
infact years before this thread started.

Nothing to smile about Jack,
so I ask you Jack to first stand on your head
before saying Cheese.

As Chuca is in Location Location Location
I have another good location next to Spag's
being occupied by a Trader Joe's of Pasadena, CA.

Kind of upscale and too sophisticated for ChucaCheeseWiz.

Got from Italy a Zerto Parmigiano Reggiano cheap at $10/lb.

a good tasting off topic post once the twiTurd smell is ignored

tonight, Boston 9 p.m. A&E t.v. The Competition

Barbecue contests are observed in Memphis, Arkansas.

Might jenSin do a similiar and have others submit in a contest
to better-up the twiTurd extraction method?

We think less than we see,
after seeing less than we think,
when folks grind their personal axes in public,
sometimes making asses of themselves
with some blaming their mother or their priest, but never ever
the image they project of themselves onto others,
... but the end is the end,
and it is foolish to call it by another name!
Good Bye to all!
Nice Guy JACK jr.
until we meet again

off topic - Blacksmith discovered why frogs drive Hawaii residents batty.

sciam.com - Scientific American's website

The Mystery of Damascus Blades by John D. Verhoeven

Centuries ago craftsmen forged peerless steel blades.
But how did they do it?
The author and a blacksmith have found an answer.

Frogs Driving Hawaii Residents Batty
By JAYMES SONG The Associated Press

HONOLULU (Dec. 28) -

... noisy tree frogs have invaded the Hawaiian Islands

The cute green frogs, the size of a dime to a quarter...

Instead of croaking, they chirp - loud and often.

Individual males have piercing chirps that reach as high
as 90 to 100 decibels from a foot and a half away.

That's comparable to a lawn mower, table saw or helicopter

... with an exponential reproduction rate and no enemies
other than angry humans, the frog population in Hawaii
has exploded.

In some areas, there are more than 8,000 frogs per acre.

... the frogs can consume as many as 46,000 insects
per acre every night.

... the state to experiment with a pure caffeine spray
to control the frog population... the pure caffeine
causes the frogs to go into cardiac failure..
