May we take that as an admission that you may have walked into the saloon and shot off your sixshooter..

May I humbly opine that the gentleman's problem may not be that he shot off his sixshooter, but rather that he is in dire need of doing so...

I learned the hard way to steer clear of penny stocks and wish you luck!

It is not the addiction to penny stocks which concerns me. I divested myself of that long ago (in fact, my first stock buy was $2.25 a share, and my broker told me it was a sure bet for $20 two or three years later...it recently soared through $3, some eight years after I'd sold it in wracking, sackcloth-rending despair). Instead, it is the annoying propensity of many of my dollar stocks to undergo a Dorian Grey-like transmutation into penny stocks. I feel occasionally like I'm in a sequel here..."Honey, I Shrunk the Equities!" A vision of my poor, diminutive, wimpy little microscopocap holdings running around screaming and cringing in terror in a forest of gigantic pharmaceutical kahuna-cap leviathans...
