Carl, >>> No Lars, do it like QNET - * CR Newswire *** 1:00AM Eastern..... Justabid announces plan to thwart takeover by Frankie Lane & Co. Justabid.com today announced that in order to thwart a recently received hostile takeover offer they are issuing a 100 to 1 stock dividend, but will not be adjusting the stock price. This will give their shareholders a hundred-fold increase in value. In this brilliant stroke, the market cap of justabid.com has been raised from $60 billion to 6 trillion. The stock dividend shares will be issued to shareholders of record June 2. >>> Great idea! Consider it done. I am sending you a Mary Kay summer color collection kit and Justa says to give you options on 1000 shares of Justabid.com for your assistance. Ha! In a matter of days we have obtained a market cap that is almost half of the total stock market, well what WAS half of total market cap.
