Bash, bash, bash -that's all you ever do. You post all the time on these threads, so
therefore you must not be tall. Additionally, you don't post with a real name, so you
certainly aren't a tall credible investor. Can't you just be "Bob" or "Hermi¤a" or
somebody with a real name-somebody who is tall? It doesn't have to be true, ya
know.

All kidding aside, though, I really love it when the shills go for the sympathy play
(usually by PM):

>>"Does it make you feel good knowing that my kids can't go to college now that
you've said something bad about this stock?" (is that really possible?)

Uh, gee-do you feel good risking your kid's education (if you're really telling the
truth) on a shipshod mining company where the only hole with gold in it is the CEO's
wife?

>>"My 80-year-old in-laws are in this and now you've wrecked their retirement by
not liking this stock." (is that really possible?)

Uh, yeah. People who actually lived through the Great Depression eagerly throw their
money, in 1998, into a two-bit Y2K/kitty litter venture, with a CEO whose previous
experience was being Campbell Soups' MeatPuppet?

And of course, the ubiqitious "So what's your penny stock pick?"

Well, shucks. My picks might be good or they might be totally naff. But Mrs. Ulrich
didn't raise any kids with the crappy moral fibre it takes to suck people into
something just to make a good exit. So it doesn't really matter what my picks are.
Following PiedPipers was never a family-encouraged attribute, any more than
being one.

THINK! It give you something to do whilst the computer is re-booting.

Inspired by the above, this thread is for all the folks that lost it all, but it was someone else's fault. Tell us all about it here.
