Hi all. I've been lurking here all along...also saw the television show that brought them out. Any comments on the following news releases would be great. I think CULE has an excellent business plan and more than likely, this stock will go through the roof like most of the other internet stocks. I am, however, a little suspicious of the whole transaction that took place between Minos Novas Gold Mining Corporation and Cool Ent. Why would this company all of the sudden go from gold, expand to natural gas, and then to the internet(money of course but still strange)? It also says that they terminated all of their prior contracts, business dealings, etc....bad credit..bad business..bad reputation. I am more than likely going buy in soon but just curious as to what others think. In any event, there is definitely some money to be made here <imo>. I lost my butt on VLNT(another penny stock that went bust because of corrupt management) so I am investigating a little this time. Thanks in advance and I will post the couple of releases that I found on MGND. Also, check-out this out: First release says a Nevada corporation, last one says a Colorado corporation--did they move or what? Weird.
