Some guy on the hub says he email the CEO and got this reply...


"I think this may answer your question, I emailed Dean asking a couple questions about the flight school and James Ray. This was his reply.

We currently have eleven students in training.. However, to become a 141 FAA certified flight school, a prerequisite for being approved by the FAA, State Department, and TSA to train foreign flight students we need a primary trainer (Cessna 172), and twin engine (Piper Seminole), and a high performance single (Piper Archer) in our inventory. We now have all three. I met James Ray through a mutual friend, and Jim bought into our dream, and he and I speak every day. Dean"



I was upset about today's PR and the company buying planes before dealing with the acquisitions, but after reading this, I see how buying the planes is just as important.

Good lord - I just got done submitting the app I was working on... been here for 23 hours straight, working non-stop. So... what happened today? Things go good or bad? I'm taking tomorrow off, lol.

I'm scared to look at the tickers.

[Dr. Dave]

ok, no replies, now I'm really scared...lol.

PS: And Julie, did you expect *US* to be boring? Come on, now, lady --- you're hanging with the creme de la creme --

You should also be aware that we men, here, have a habit of skewing the scales. Few men measure up to us, ya know. Especially Bill.


And Bill...you're just alright, man.

I know better than that Rams. You guys sure aren't boring, far from it. That's why I keep coming back for more.


I hope your wife is feeling better!

Quasar is obviously making great strides towards fulfilling our business plan and the additions of these aircraft coupled with the recent purchases of our flight simulators will enable Atlantic Aviation to aggressively pursue many new students and become ready for the expansion to our facility to be completed hopefully in Spring 2010.

As we are aware that the 6 acquisitions are also at the forefront of our shareholders minds based on the amount of phone calls and emails received. We do want to advise that we are rapidly progressing on these fronts and there will be updates forthcoming as appropriate.

Kidding!

ok, no replies, now I'm really scared...lol.

Hi Dave, I usually stare at them Marty Feldman style on the second monitor all day long ... What I try to avoid is looking at my Etrade account ...

For me, it's just another day of ...

"Yes sir, may I have another?"

Darn it, tried to lowball QASP first at .012 then later at .0152 ...

"Yes sir, may I have another?" LOL

Hey Tib..I know how you feel man, I've become skeptical of anything coming directly from these companies. I'm expecting any day now to hear that the FDA will ban the artificial production of Algae...lol.

All I know is that today I did the Snoopy dance (nose up, feet tapping) picking pockets over at GSAE. Spent a little more than a week in their pocket and walked out with 23%! Normally I would ride my green account for awhile, but I needed a moral boost after staring at nearly 40-60% down on my other stellar picks.

Anyhoo...enough of that rant. Better days coming....I HOPE!

[bigsandy]

And that was another beautiful day! Made a little money for the third day in a row. That's such a nice feeling...

Where do I sign up for Pocket Picking 101 from professor Candleman? I'm in dire need of some schooling...lol.

[bigsandy]

Hey Sandy,

Great to hear from you. I like those pocket pickers!

Hey Bill..thanks. Yeah, pocket picking is my new favorite activity. I've been swamped at work (we're actually selling our little company...woohoo---maybe I can become a consultant to some of these penny ceo's on how to build a business...lol) so I've neglected my penny portfolio and paid a heavy price...I'm way down on BCLE, BEHL and I was astute enough to get into ASFX at it's zenith (just prior to that stupid CC).

Fortunately I can focus now and I'm gonna become a full fledged member of the Pocket Pickers!

Maybe we start our own Blog and stock picking newsletter...get some of these numbskull companies to pay us to promote their sorry stocks. Wouldn't that be a hoot! hmmm...I've got a couple of empty LLC's laying around collecting dust. Thoughts? Anybody??
