Well you stick your fungus up your shell and you blow the seed all over the suckers en regalia. (Julia Childs) Only ten percent can come back to you. That is called the bad seed. Remember the broker's addage. Paper cuts can be fatal so keep it locked up where it cannot hurt you. Paper can be trapped in containers, burnt, stuck on dead bodies and used to decorate washroom walls in howe street speakeasies where you know all the paper's hanger's bad habits that their wives are unaware of. Paper should neve be given to anyone with an IQ in the triple digits. That is called ILL-liquidity.

IPO is short for Idiot's Personal Opinion. The only IPO's that work are started by major companies or, are backed by the 20 richest people in town who think that the president is a complete idiot and who are going the steal this very_good_idea_off him. They suck up all the paper and fire him so they will be in total control. The president gets all his stock stolen off him for ten bucks a share and cries softly as his brainchild is cruelly harboured by the evil magnates. He whimpers away with his tail between his legs and spends his last few million to buy a cheap old 60 foot trawler from some junk dealers on the east coast, Sparkman and Stephens. He has to use wind and kerosene to reach a desolate volcanic island in the middle of the pacific. There on a beach he bargains with local natives to let him live in a large empty iron and glass mausoleum built by some tribesmen 50 years ago. They write his name down in a book they call the "social register" and watch his every move and take his picture everywhere he goes. Rarely is he mentioned favourably. To top his ignominy he is forced to eat the rumps of grazing animals and drink foul fermented beverages served to him by young buxom pliant women who can barely afford clothes at all.

Such is the fate of the overly hopeful who would be rich and control vast empires of technology and progress.
