Don L: RE:< Why can't I get the Justabid.com channel on my cable?>

Your problem is that you don't have the free MyRealBid.com Player. It's a free download at the MyRealBid.com website. You can also pay an extra $30 for the SUPER MyRealBid Player if you choose. It's equipped with a gavel that knocks you on the head (ge-bumpers you) if you win the bidding.

BTW, there will be a MyRealBid.com IPO soon (I'm not allowed to talk about it while the registration statement is being reviewed by the S.E.-SEA. You can make Real Bids for the IPO shares at the website as soon as the registration statement is approved. I assure you the company will not have any earnings for a long time.

Don: "Why can't I get the Justabid.com channel on my cable?"

The demand is so great for our programming that we are unable to provide channel access to everyone at this time. Unfortunately, we cannot provide cable programming to you because you local cable provider has not subscribed to the underwriting of our shares in any meaningful way. In any event, if you can pay your bills, we are not interested in you as a customer. We don't want to show a profit. Heck no, if we did show a profit we would then fall victim to a valuation model and that would mean discussion about our P/E.

It is just as well for you and for us at justabid.com. I am afraid our programming might break your resolve and force you to take up golfing as a full time profession. Therefore, we at justabid.com do not find it in our interest to provide you with our quality programming. But if you want a taste of what we do, lock yourself in a room and watch reruns of the Jerry Favors Comedy Act. We welcomed Jerry Favors (see bogus press release) to our board today and hope he can do for us what he has done for his followers. The active avoidance of profits is the key to our business model and Jerry is our insurance policy in that regard.

Awwww Don,

Why in h&%l would you want to get some of the Justabid.com IPO. That one is like a 1954 Ford, 4-door. That's your father's dot.com. Figure it this way: Justabid.com has an actual chance to make positive earnings; they (Justa and Lars) actually sell beauty aids and other personal appliances by mail.

What you really want to get in on is Bre-X.com. Mr. Felderhoff will return from his current home in the Cayman Islands to kick off the promotion of the IPO. Now, that one is really going to go big. See, the company will sell old mining drill cores over the internet. It will also sell a special helicopter trip over the jungle in Borneo. (Just remember to wear your seat belt.)

Ciao,
