I sure miss Craig. Remember when he posted every 15 minutes for about 36 straight hours?

Well, it looks like I'm the only one who lost money by owning this stock: Craig and Barb made money shorting, and all you longs have infinite bank accounts, so by doubling up every time the stock dropped 1/16th, and accumulating 100 trillion shares, you finally made money.

Unfortunately, as I lost most of my money by first investing in Sankar's shill for Cityscape (still trading at 6/10 of a cent), I wasn't able to double up on Osicom every time Par Chadha did something incredibly stupid. (Par's incompetence included things like talk about NMS listings that didn't happen until a year later, hype significant sales of IQX's that never happened, hype significant sales of Gigamuxi that haven't happened, do a reverse split, promise significant sales of Net+ARMs, announce a sale of a gidget to some top-secret unnamed company in Asia, etc.) So when the margin calls started, and the guys named Bruno came to my door with the brass knuckles and baseball bats, I had to sell Osicom stock for a loss.

Now I'm just hanging out here under this freeway overpass, fighting the stray cats for tuna fish set out for them by kindly old ladies. (I don't know what happened to ChinaBoy; I haven't seen him in a while.)

But don't worry about me...
