Sorry, But READ THIS! I really hate posting all of this, but I feel the BAAT investors should know about things I find in doing research (along with my buddy--J.S.) Here we go again....

You tickle me. According to my watch, I'm thinking about dinner and you are just getting up cheap and shallow in the morning. Must have been some Saturday night. My mama always told me, marry the girl who fixes her hair for Sunday morning church, not Saturday night and you'll always be happy. You better start thinking of getting to bed or else you'll miss tomorrow's open. Since you don't have a question, I have one... Q: Have you ever wondered why Ole Joe has a U-shaped desk? A: Because he sleeps in the fetal position. Now that was a good one. If you can't take a joke, you better get off the thread and take your fowl mouth with you. BTW, did you catch Fatt Matt's post -- our large investor. That's what I want to see with BAAT. Not news of another picnic with Ole Joe some where. Got It!
