This is a good day trade stock. I get in and out a couple of times a week. Today was good for 14%!

I will keep an eye on it. I'm currently trying to get a fresh start and regroup. I got out of qasp and bcle today for less than I expected but once I decided to do it I needed to just get out. With that said, I did take that $ and jump back in on siri, I think I have a better chance of recouping losses in the short term and then I will turn into a pickpocket. I kept behl because....well I don't exactly know why. I don't want to miss out on any free shares with the new company.

BTW, does anyone know or have any news on that "merger" with behl? I have not heard or seen anything in quite awhile???

Yeah, it's just a silly thing that will never come to pass short of a disaster that would enable me to become another bag holder ... :rolleyes:

Put it right on the money @ .02 - For a couple of days it took a quick trip down there and back ... figured, why not?

QASP is having another blue light special ... :(

But ... the rumour mill is all chatty about ... get this ...

Next week!

These guy's need to find their own slogan, I own that one ...

End of cynicism report.

I'm being sneaky. Can you figure it out? Those of you that own it, plant it..somewhere..everywhere..viral advertising - oops, too much info.

Wow man, just amazing....just simply amazing! A great video and to think it's from the radio....

Not just any radio...Sirius XM Satellite Radio - The Best Radio On Radio :D

I've been really enjoying the Sirius XM YouTube videos today -- especially the "Artist Confidential" section.

Truth be told, I've never in my life been more excited about radio -- and it's not just because I own stock.

It's really *that* good!

Anyway...I'm really quite happy that you enjoyed the video...it's all about being human...

And what's more, as it turns out...the artist Matisyahu will be in San Diego -- TOMORROW!

If I can't get the wife and kid to go...I'm demanding a hall pass ;-)

My word of the week: Dithering
definition: To be nervously irresolute in acting or doing.

So much for political talk....now on to stocks :rolleyes:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am rather proud of myself, having stayed out of the shrub for at least a week. It is more like a weak caffeine addiction, rather than a fine cocaine addiction. The shrub gives a person subliminal hypnotic suggestion to endlessly babble and a trigger to burst out with statements like: "The PR is coming" "Next Week" "I just talked to _____ at the office and they said" "It's going to happen any day now, it is just a matter of ______" "I can definitely see this stock hitting $(fill in the blank) before you know it" "I am long, he he, you guys that just sold are going to regret it" "I knew that the assholes were up to something...I could smell it the whole time" "They just shut the trading down without giving us notice first?" "I think we ought to file a class action lawsuit"....Feel free to add any more that comes to mind (we can make a montage and post it in its own thread. :)

You nailed it Bill ... Don't forget "To the moon" and "Weeeeee ..." And the proverbial classics ...

"There is no way we break .015, not going to happen ..." "I think the bottom is .015 (Monday)", "Definitely the bottom here, it won't break .014 (Wednesday)" ... By Friday, it's ..."Were going to sub-penny land!" ... Mind you, all from the same poster .... :D

There's no end to it and yet ... it's funny you brought this up Bill. I would have to admit to having a slightly stronger addiction I guess - The reason it's funny is that I do have some sympathies for a few of these guy's, they are left to combat on the larger stage, not unlike the SIRI boards, where you have so many participants, just a volume thing, clashing ... what's the word?, ... clashing! I have to recognize that the largest amount of ah hem, 'investors' are from there on any given stock that is being touted, er promoted - (read pumped and bumped) ... Wait a minute, it just occurred to me, your mention ...

The shrub gives a person subliminal hypnotic suggestion to endlessly babble ...

Oh my!

The mother became someone dear, a true, elderly Christian lady with her feet and experience planted firmly on the ground. When they came here they were put into internment camps for I don't know how long and to hear her explanation and understanding of it, despite it all ... Not a hint of bitterness, they are very much conservative, 'patriotic', ... all-American - I would say even more so than many that might ... I digress. I used to sit in her kitchen and we would talk about the Bible, the church, my problems, she was kind of my spiritual mother if you will. I just love to listen and learn from those who have far more experience and have lived and walked further ... wisdom.

Thanks Bill, you don't know how something like sharing this can draw out latent ... sentiment, if that's the word I am looking for. It's been a very disordered and distracted kind of year personally - A lot of changes, work especially, being acquired and watching close to a hundred people exit, many that you form those loose kind of relationships with over the years, all the emotions and second guessing ... suspicions and paranoia ... drama which is usually unnecessary and overblown. It's good and bad I guess, have a lot of responsibility that has been taken on, more so in the days ahead and just for the fun of it and to fill those other milliseconds of time I jump into the netherworld of the pennies! No thanks to you guys! LOL!!! Maybe I am just letting out some of this to hear myself speak, I need to get grounded again, been kind of ... adrift.

Anyway ... Got some stock related, musings to get out just as well ...

Good morning guys, :sunny:

Saturday morn and on SiriusBuzz reading all the posts. :)

I said it before, I"ll say it again, how much I enjoy reading all the
stories, life experiences, introspections and yes even recipes.

That is what makes this more than just another stock site.
Human beings reside here.

Thank you for that.

Julie

heyyyyyyyyy guys!!!!! back from my trip to europe. played the wsope in london and won ZERO pounds!!! lol. then me and a few friends took off to the mediterranean and rented a cliffside villa for the past month. no poker no internet there :) just a refresh of the body, mind and soul. will post some pics later. need to get some sleep - i cant sleep on planes without zanax.

hope all is well with everyone and looking forward to hearing some success stories!!!

No, thank you - Julie, Too :)

This thread would likely look a lot different, if it weren't that we have a lady present.

After all, integrity can only go so far...at times, it's not a bad idea to have a self-corrective mechanism in place :D

I've decided it's time to hop back on the bike and head to the hills. So, first thing Sunday morning I'm pedaling to Ohio through West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland. Hope to catch some awsome fall foilage. I've decided to pedal from micro brewery to micro brewery. I'll end up in Marietta Ohio by Wednesday and turn around. I plan to sample as many lagers as a human being can sample in a week and still ride a bike.....LOL We'll see how this goes.....LOL LOL LOL

So, when I return in 10 days or so, I hope to look at the computer and be up a little.

In the meantime, you all have a wonderful week. I'll be thinking of all of you as I pedal and drink my way to happiness. And I hope you all have a happy and prosperous week!

Cheers :cheers:

Chuck

Hey Chuck,

Have a blast on your trek...FALL time is wonderful time to be out...the colors are amazing here. We have a few leaves left on the trees, but they have all but blown off now and this part of the state is still waiting for our first snowfall to hit the ground.

Be sure to take pics!!!!

Hi Julie,

You are very kind, I agree with Ram's wholeheartedly ... Have you been sucked into this piggy bank market yet? Just curious. Might be heading out your way sooner than I know, one of our other offices is in Auburn Hills (?).

Bass! Great to hear from you, we have been asking amongst ourselves about your MIA status. Must have missed your mention of going to Europe ... Welcome back!

Hi LosTib, :)

I can't imagine, even with out me here, you guys being anything but gentlemen. ;)

Nope, never ventured into the Penny Zone. I would have to be pretty
fast with my decisions over here as well as being well read. Two areas I do
not excel in. So I am just holding Sirius, where things move a LOT
slooower! :rolleyes:

Auburn Hills, about 50 miles from me. Let me know if you need to borrow a snowsuit from me while you're here. :D

:) Actually, if you are like me you can venture into the netherworld of the pennies and still be tortured by the blazing speed that mirrors SIRI - It just takes the focus off of it in a little psychological slight of hand ...

What's a 'snowsuit'? :D I envision Ralphies little brother in A Christmas Story all layered up to the point where he can't get his arms to stay down. ;)

But sure, I'll take you up on it ... if it doesn't have bunny ears ....

(Had to take out some of your icons to get mine in - Over the image limit)

Confession time ...

I have QASP on the brain, in my dreams ... At the Shrub, all over the net ... In fact lets count them ...

Currently -

8 Pages up -
1 with 7 tabs
1 with 13 tabs
A couple with 2 tabs ...

QASP T-Shirts
QASP Coffee mugs
QASP Frisbees
QASP LVR license plate ...

Kidding, of course the lic. plate ... hmmm.

Have just about exhausted myself researching this and finally just sent Dean an email, a bit too polished upon reflection, probably thinks I am lawyer or a spy from the SEC.

Went back and did the opposite of Bill and think I found a way to get off the shrub addiction by immersing myself into it even further. Actually went back to Post #1 and started clicking through them speed reading style ... Got historical from it all (the postings originate from the former Equus holders and company), it helped to see who has been in this thing for awhile over there but also got me interested in the players prior (and current), the lawsuit, etc.

Pretty intriguing story how this has played out so far. If anybody has an interest or needs some sleepy time reading material ...

http://www.complaints.com/2009/febru...STE_202955.htm

It's only 196 items ... :rolleyes: But it was quite enlightening to read the accusations against these gutter dwellers. Picked up on some of the names that are still involved with Quasar today (or were until recently, Marty Zell for instance) and naturally plugged these into various searches ...

Being still suspicious/skeptical and not wanting to color anything it appears that much of what I had picked up on the shrub was true - They went after these guy's, threw the bums out and apparently salvaged the shareholder base. It was a little tricky trying to ascertain who might have been a culprit or a victim of the shenanigans - Lisa Betros, (current SVP of admin. @ Quasar) was mentioned but appeared to be a victim as one example.

A piece that Marty sent Washington Mutual regarding the roaches, er gentlemen in question -

http://www.quasaraerospace.net/PR20080421.pdf

And something of a follow up PR to the litigation -

http://www.quasaraerospace.net/PR20080416.pdf

PR related at the time -

http://finance.paidcontent.org/v?Pag...&GUID=8303251#



Couldn't find any real conclusion to the case, what became of it all. Once again, much is piecemeal trying to make a comprehensive ... evaluation. I still remain skeptical until proven otherwise, to my mind there is every possibility that a similar situation could be underfoot, it is still the Pinks and the pennies. Having stated that much I haven't found anything fishy with the current group, probably more the opposite ... still the radar is ... blah, blah, blah ...


(Insert here - Couldn't let this one linger without a mention - It goes back to a time before things were uncovered by these 'outstanding citizens' and shows the sheer audacity and presumption ... to put it mildly. Pretty incredible and serves as just another one of those things we already know about taking any PR at face value ... http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Presid.....-a0132407283 ) Pure BS!



One item of interest came about here -

http://www.sunbiz.org/scripts/cordet...t_princ_type=R

"Combustion Engine Technologies, Inc."

Dean Bradley and Lisa Betros, Jamie Herring all listed ... Not sure what to make of it, might bring it up if I get a response from Dean. Curious.

One item that did make me wonder is why there hasn't been any mention in almost all of the PR's about http://www.quasaraircraft.com/Home_Page.html and the LSA - More info on the planes:

Hey there LT...I am not sure what to make of what's going on with this one. I believe the company is legit and the product is real but can't figure out the downward movement in the price??? Like you said, it feels like mglg, even though I know it's not. I'm a pretty simple cat and don't shake things up too much but I had to in this case, tired of seeing my account drop week after week even though I consider this play money, still, I just don't want to flush it down the drain. I will get back into qasp but for now I sold it along with bcle at about a 50% loss and bought back into siri. I just see more upside in the near term and just wanted to shake things up a bit. I appreciate the DD you've done on this because I will still follow this closely and if it starts to make a real move, I'm back in.

Hey Geek,

I am just too stubborn to take a loss, something that needs some work likely ... ended up avg. down with the hope that I can bail on it if need be - Clarify that, a small loss I have no problem with ... Think you are right, have been wishing I had funneled this back into SIRI right about now, especially with the CC\Q3 report coming up ... It has been one of the better lessons though, realizing how these things always come back down, could have bought what I have currently at a better price and saved a number of commissions costs from buying in these smaller tranches. I am a bit overextended on this, no doubt.
