Just a reminder to everyone about ASIC! Robert H. Stone, president and CEO of the Company commented: "We have continued to reduce our operating expenses and are very close to reaching profitability. We have narrowed our operating loss from $154,499 last quarter to only $46,259 this quarter. I expect us to improve upon that again in the quarter ending March 31, 1999."

HouseHold Direct is internally creating a database of investor contacts in order to provide regular notification on Company progress.
