El let's not blame Jimbo, hype is one thing, acting on it is another...I take full blame and responsibility for my foolish actions today...I can only hope the internet stock craze still has a few legs left on it or my future will be all but lost.

EL...One of my screens, I have named McCoy, has about 15 of his "recommendations". I have noticed that for the most part they are all low priced and thinly traded. Both spell high risk and say stay away. Like Garcia, my lessons have come with great cost but the cost can become a valuable investment that will pay off over time if the lesson was learned.
