I understand completely.It was a bit rude of me.
Continued success for you on this particular stock.Hope it becomes a ten-bagger for you.
It wasn't a rude question. I admire your curiosity. Here's the story. I work for a company that is in the telecommunications industry. When I started here in October 2001, telecommunication stocks had just taken a couple of years of poor performance. Early on, I was given 300 shares of options, not a lot, but the strike price was low due to the state of the market at the time. Immediately, I started contributing to my 401K earning a nice company match which was totally in company stock. The stock remained flat for 4 years. I work for a subsidiary that was eventually spun off and sold. Very complicated. The last 1-2 years the stock is finally performing and rumours say our former parent will be sold, which is partially fueling the rebound.

Care to put a name or the symbols up for the superstar stock?
Of course,for educational purposes only!(I like candlestick charts)
Congrats on your positive position.Hope it keeps rolling for you.
I'd prefer not to. I know all too well the chaotic nature of the stock market and wouldn't want to lead anybody down the wrong path.

US stock markets up again. My superstar stock up again.
:D -
The US stock market had a good day today, plus one of my holdings has been doing very well lately.

I'm sorry I hope everything is ok!
I'm on antibiotics to shrink my prostate. My anus is really sore and I can't wipe it very effectively. This is NOT a joke, it's really a pain (in the ass). I'm embarr(ass)ed to say what made me go to the Dr. in the first place.

What is wrong dud? And what about Drunk. Hate to see anyone facing death. Have seen to many of my friends die young.
I've been in a lot of pain the last 10 days. Three more days of medication. Then some more tests, hopefully everything comes out A-OKAY. My ass is hurting so much.
-
Coming to the realization that I am not afraid to die. I'm dealing with a medical issue that will probably resolve itself. If not, I decided tonight, maybe it's my time. Blood test came back alright. Urine sample is fine. 9 more days of medication and we will see.

So what is the best album to start with Jethro?
I like This Was, but I want to hear more, so tell me...
WTF!!! What did I just get done telling you?
-
This is the absolute truth - Clay Aiken singing Bridge Over Troubled Water. I loaded EVERYTHING I own into my ITUNES library.
-
I just finished loading about 31 Jethro Tulls CDs on my IPOD. Do I really need 8 unique versions of Bouree?

Yesterday a friend makes me hear This Was . My favourite song was A Song for Jeffrey. So I wanna hear more about Jethro.
This Was(their 1st LP released in 1968) is probably NOT the best way to introduce somebody to Tull's music. I love that release, but things changed quite a bit when Mick Abrahams left the band in December 1968 and Ian Anderson took control. The very next release Stand Up released in 1969 shows Ian in full control and has stood the test of time. Buy the remastered Stand Up with bonus tracks. Oh, if I remember correctly, the remastered Stand Up is dedictated to none other than Led Zeppelin for allowing Tull to be the opening act on Zeppelin's 1969 tour.

Wow, Robin Fink leaving new Guns in going to affect touring of the Album, if and when it coems out. He's been there from almost the get go. as far as the new album is concerned.
The word on the street is that Robin is upset Chinese Democracy is being released. He thinks it needs more tweaking.

I guess depending on your definition of found money this could qualify.....In 1988, representing myself, I sued two former tenants(guy and gal) of my townhouse for non-payment of rent. The judge awarded me a judgement in the amount of $2200.00. After collecting about $500.00 from the gal, through a salary garnishment, both people just kind of disappeared. Thinking I'd never be able to find them again, I filed what is called a docketed judgement. This action records a lien against any type of real estate sale. Three years ago I received a call from a title search company, they tracked me down from NJ to MD. The guy tenant sold a piece of property and after adding interest, I received a check for $3800.00 from the proceeds of his sale. The court never accounted for the $500.00 collected in 1988, so I made out equally good. Not the typical landlord story, they usually cut their loses and move on.

In restaurants, I've noticed people always leaving money on the table after they pay the bill and leave. I usually just walk by and pick it up.
Seriously, I've found small amounts of money 5's, 10's, maybe a 20. Usually on a bar floor or sometimes even during a dog walk.
True story - where I used to live in NJ, a woman was outside a store with her young son and she found a bag containing $20,000.00. She turned it into the police. Lo and behold, it belonged to an old man who was transferring the money from bank to bank and left the bag on top of his car. I contend if her son wasn't there she would have just kept the money instead of having to teach her little one an important lesson.

You don't look fat. Smile in your pics. Smiling always makes people more appealing.
What a nasty thing to say. I'm sure you're just walking around smiling all the time.

Even now... The Ticket guys are talking about the Springsteen concert last night.
Several of the guys got to sit in Mark Cuban's suite, as he was out of town watching a Mavericks game.....
Other guys sat in the stands, and others stood in the GA on the floor.
Listen to the Ticket Online:
go to Backstreets and you can read some great reviews, set lists and song tour premiers. Great site.

Kinda funny coming from a guy that bitched at me so much about doing the exact same thing. Not to mention the constant complaining about me posting articles when you've also done the same thing. Pot, meet the kettle.
NOW you are responding to a post of mine made OVER TWO MONTHS AGO. You must be desperate to add to your list of forum fights. First of all, I didn't cut and past the rules and regulations and then rip the guy a new a'hole like YOU do when pointing out the duplicate thread. I pointed it out and then just politely answered his question. Regarding posting of articles, you are hands down the king, posting multiple alt. country articles within a one hour time period. I've probably posted five in the 3 1/2 months I've been coming here.

Damn, I love this record. Back row, second from left is a very young Charlie Daniels in 1970.

Did Axl fuck your sister, or perhaps your mom or something?
Keep guessing, I think you're getting close.
-
I don't know where you get this "last word" bullshit from but if someone makes false statements concerning me I'm not going to sit idly by and let it go. I suggest you butt the fuck out and mind your own business.
I've seen you get into countless fights with people on this board and I know you need to get the last word in. So now I'm not allowed to participate here because God a.k.a. our Resident Musicologist has deemed me unworthy.
-
Someone doesn't have to be a fan or a musician to be qualified to express an opinion. Like I've said, I do like some of their stuff but I don't want to buttfuck Axl as you do so my opinion is not nearly as biased. You know it will be good? So you've already heard the entire thing? I think not. Get Axl's dick out of your mouth and try forming an honest opinion once the album is actually released, not ahead of time before you've even heard it.
Is it really necessary to bring this thing into the gutter? Just because he started doesn't mean you have to continue. Just another example of YOU having to get the last word in. A real man would have ignored his reply.

The problem as I see it is NOBODY has a mother effing clue what it is like to be in a mother effing band the magnitude of Guns N' mother effing Roses.

What a weird tour in terms of doubling back to the same state or part of the country. 3 different dates in NJ, separated by shows in other parts of the country. Then they finish up in WA after being in FL.

I made a telephone call to a relative that had the potential to be very uncomfortable. We had a nice chat for over 1 hour and during which time I received some very good news.
:D 
I hope everything is ok!

With the exception of I believe Aqualung, EVERY Tull studio release has been remastered with bonus tracks. This Was was given EXTRA SPECIAL treatment as a 2 CD release with an assortment of live and mono song versions, since it represents the 40th anniversary celebration. The official site just posted an update with a US sale date of June 10. I'm going to probably buy it. My current version of This Was is not remastered and I don't like the artwork.
Hopefully they don't give the EXTRA SPECIAL treatment to everything. That would amount to milking all the hardcore fans for all that they are worth.
