I wish I had the link for the VG article I recently read. -They are to raise over $500M in IPO, but they have approximately the same amount in debt that they've accumulated over the last 11 years. -They are not profitable now. -Voip providers are expected to drop prices. -The telcos have...

Start your own business?

Going prop is career suicide on the resume. Straight up. I know this from speaking to people in hiring positions at bulge bracket firms, one of which I worked at out of Colgate. By small ivey, I am assuming you mean that you went to Amherst, Williams or Wesleyan. You should easily get an...

Blue Monday... one of the best songs of all time

OIL... the oil standard.

I lived in Austin for about a year and a half. I had heard stories through acquaintances and the local public cable access channel that the cops were draconian in the small towns and rural areas. Like, you get pulled over for tail light and spend the night in jail or get a $2k fine. Is it...

Mickey Dee's has Seattle's Best coffee now. I Personally prefer it over SBUX. I'm going to try the BK turbo coffee in a few minutes.

I'm getting hammered in QEE. I feel the upside is greater than the price of the shares currently. An investor... sigh. Gold is moving up tonight and the dollar is dropping. Check out CAU. Constant media barrages about gold and inflation, fiscal profligacy and war could pump up these...

Great poetry is written about unrequited love (Keats, Tennyson, etc.). If the great poets were alive they might write about how Mickey Dees got rid of the most sublime item on the menu- The Arch Deluxe. It is frustrating to have constant cravings and know that they can never be sated. Just...

Where are all the Black Tuesday people?

At least it is a memorable campaign. Whatever happened to Rick Bayless/ Chicken Baguette/ fire grilling ads? I don't think BK has had very many memorable ads between Emmanuel Lewis and "The King."

The analogies to Kmart should include near death experience. Franchisees have mounted insurrections, their menu is 30 years behind the times, stores are closing or hemorraging money, etc. Look at the Chicken Baguette failure and their lame attempts to update the menu. Their fries suck for...

You are the leader of a small country with vast oil reserves. Oil exports are crucial to your county's fiscal viability and your political power. You make a calculated ruff with a "get tough" Washington administration. You threaten to nationalize the oil reserves and cutoff those oil thirsty...

Sergey Brin and Page mighta started Google with much less than seven figs. Ideas rule.

Metals: CAU and GLE could have another wave. Volume is picking up on QEE. By the way, NEM recently bought a chunk of QEE at $0.41 which is only $0.07 below its current price. If and when gold goes higher then people will start scrambling for these cheaper gold stocks.

Well, you can pick up the latest copy at the Borders by Southcenter Mall. I get it for free though.

QEE, IMCO, GV and lookin' for pullbacks in GLE, CWPC, and SIGA

Yeah, nothing seems to damage this stock which is bullish. It is reg SHO with a big chunk of the float already shorted. The float is small. The CEO is a circus side show act criss- crossing the globe, and there is a sizeable institutional and insider ownership of this small cap stock. I...

The broker dealers don't want 24/7 trading because it will tack on extra staffing costs and bring about uncertainties. Maybe there is 24/7 trading on US stocks one day, but the liquidity is only during standard hours.

I was waiting for more of a pullback on that NXG also. I'm looking at IMCO and some other stuff- none of which looks too fantastic. GLD and SLV also.
