Hello Pezz, Today's Report: (a) I am doing mostly nothing in the financial arena, and just waiting, for what I do not know; (b) Figuring enough is enough, I sold my Trinidad Energy Services finance.yahoo.com at CAD 14.60, in the nick of time, and claim a realized gain of 75% from purchase cost of Message 20497221 <<I purchased a tranche of Trinidad Energy Services finance.yahoo.com at CAD 8.325/share. They look for stuff and then dig for it, but as a service provider, not as a principal, sort of like what I do.>> plus exchange rate gain, of course; (c) I am in process of master-planning for an abode in Thailand, and we hope to complete construction and fitout by end of year 2006. On your geewhizbang computer, from experience, I recommend that you run the old and new PCs concurrently for a while, and do not allow your enthusiam to drive you to let go of one hold before you grab hold of another hold, as in mid-air acrobatics. May the Force be with you. Chugs, J

Hello Pezz, Tonight's Report: Sold off 63% of my Canadian Oil Sand shares at CAD 106+ (cost basis from 2003 averages to CAD 38ish), claiming a fair return. I will buy back at some point, after the big downward slam. I would characterize my present frame of mind as "dial 1.800.get.me.out" or "dial 1.900.go.to.cash" Chugs, J

Hello again Pezz, Another Report: Off-loaded 1/3 of precious Vermilion Energy Trust finance.yahoo.com at CAD 24.3+, claiming on LIFO accounting basis a 40+% gain from Message 20238938 . If I unload more, I would be doing so to earlier tranches (May 5th, 2003) and the cost basis would be less than CAD 13. The beast has also been gushing dividends every month at a healthy pace, oh, yes, and do not forget the currency gains. Consider this a panic sell practice. Did I forget to mention, "Forget everything, get cash" Chugs, J
