We are anticipating news and don't want to jynx it.
I talked to John today, thought I'd wait a day after the million share day. He is surprised at what kinda crap goes on over there at stockhouse. Me too.

He has no idea who is buying up the stock.
I hope those people selling are kicking themsleves in a couple of months.

Here's one I like.


This guy goes up to a bar located at the top of the Empire State building
in
New York. It looks like a nice place and he takes a seat at the bar next
to
another guy. "This is a nice place, I've never been here," the first guy
says.

"Oh really?" the other replies, "it's also a very special bar.". "Why is
that?" the first guy asks. "Well, you see that painting on the far wall?
That's an original Van Gogh, and this stool I'm sitting on was on the
Titanic."

"Gee, that's amazing!" the first guy says. "Not only that, but you see that
window over there, fourth from the right? Well, the wind does strange
things outside that window. If you jump out you fall about 50 feet before
the wind catches you and you're pushed back up."

"No way, that's impossible," the first guy replies. "Not at all, take a
look," the other man replies and walks over to the window, followed closely
by the first man. He opens the window, climbs over the sill and falls out
He drops 10...20...30...40...50 feet, comes to a stop, and whoosh! He
comes
right back up and sails through the window. "See, it's fun. You should
try
it," he says. "Try it? I don't even believe I saw it!" the first man
shouts. "It's easy. Watch, I'll do it again." With that, he falls out the
window again. He drops 10...20...30...40...50 feet, comes to a stop, and
whoosh! he comes right back up and sails back through the window.

"Go ahead, give it a try, it's a blast," he says. "Well, what the heck.
OK,
I'll give it a try," the first man says and proceeds to fall out the
window.
He falls 10....20...30...40...50...100...200...300...500 ...1000 feet and
SPLAT!, ends up as road pizza on the sidewalk below.

After calmly watching the first man fall to his death, the other guy
casually closes the window and heads back to the bar and orders another
drink. The bartender arrives with the drink and says, "You know Superman,
you're a real asshole when you're drunk."
