VERY Interesting & Enjoyable DG!

<<A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.>>

that's because a duck actually doesn't quack.. it has no vocal
cords.. it doesn't make a sound at all..

instead, ducks send a telepathic signal out their nostrils to our
brains, in which some hemoglobulanic stuff gets sent to our ears.. and
thus we hear a "perceived" quack...

that's why there is no echo... hey you guys no I'm serious and I
don't waste posts... this is FACT ... so believe it

<<A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why>>

Just thought I'd let you know that I finally told my wife about
this one.. don't know how it came up .. but I said,

"Did you know a duck's quack doesn't echo"..

she said, "What do you mean?"

I said, "Well you know how when you goto a canyon and yell 'HELLO' you hear 'HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO' ... well if a duck quacked in the
canyon you wouldn't hear anything"

She said, "How do you know.. has a duck ever been in a canyon if so
why would he go there? Plus who was there waiting for him to see if
he would quack and if there'd be a echo.. Jim are you sure? "

Funny thing is.. she was serious... I couldn't stop laughing..

Is there anywhere I could go to find more info on duck's quacks?

Don't answer that.. I'm just kidding.. Hey, even at 19years old.. I knew this was the girl for me.. now all I need to do is hope that one of our stocks really makes a move up this week so I can take out just
a small amount to pay off some bills..

anyone have any ideas of a stock that is ready to move on up??

hmmmm ... now where could I find an undervalued stock... say with
$200million in assets.. possibly in the oil/gas business.. and since
I live in Texas.. maybe a local Texas company.. good Christian mgmt
at the top... possibly a company seeking to rapidly expand and doesn't
cost say more than $5.00 share.. one that also looks as though it's
going to make some strong moves upwards in price over the next 30days.
oh and a company that has alot of great investor support.. that way I can discuss the company/stock online and share info with common investors like myself...

wow how the internet has helped people invest in penny stocks.. if it
wasn't for the internet.. how many of us would even know about these
stocks and moreso.. how many of us would be willing to invest in them
if we didn't have what we have here..

anyway, if anyone knows of a company that meets these requirements.. please let me know. smile!
