Tadpole Evolves (TAD)     

ainsoph - 23 May 2003 13:32

A new thread that may swim in hibernation for a few days or weeks as the process of evolution takes place ......

Imagine a slimmed down debt free company with one division stacked with orders and self financing with cash in the bank.

Then imagine a partner for the other division with pockets so deep that they could fund a rocket to the moon ..... and back

Dreaming of course but Tads can do that to you ..... what a gem or is that a bygone dream as well .....

Tris

Sequestor - 30 May 2003 18:10 - 284 of 729

Gentlemen please, the little"a" word is not allowed, and quite rightly so, I too had a post pulled for mentioning "that name", and quite rightly so too.

Tris - 30 May 2003 18:22 - 285 of 729

Why ainsoph was banned is beyond me with all the rabble still here Clarvis!.he did when given chance, bring news and good analytical skills to the thread.
Ains being ains there was no way he would roll over for Richards like you know whom I mean.
Final word. Be ready :0)
Tris

Densil - 30 May 2003 18:23 - 286 of 729

Go on Tris, spill the beans

Densil - 30 May 2003 18:28 - 287 of 729

Tris I agree. I though Ains made a useful contribution here when allowed.
I've squelched most of the gits so I don't know a lot of what was said recently.
If he hadn't been so determined to have the last word, they probably wouldn't have banned him.

Tris - 30 May 2003 18:37 - 288 of 729

its not allowed Densil :0)

Its funny how people try and sneak in under the radar. It actually brings home just how many aliases posters actually had when denying they had any. We have 'interesting 'technology' to help us.

Densil - 30 May 2003 20:53 - 292 of 729

Bullshare. I've no objection to them as individuals provided they are restricted to one alias and provided they stick to the share and don't get stuck into each other.
Its the concerted needle that galls.

Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby
One day Brer Fox thought of how Brer Rabbit had been cutting up his capers and bouncing around until he'd come to believe that he was the boss of the whole gang. Brer Fox thought of a way to lay some bait for that uppity Brer Rabbit.

He went to work and got some tar and mixed it with some turpentine. He fixed up a contraption that he called a Tar-Baby. When he finished making her, he put a straw hat on her head and sat the little thing in the middle of the road. Brer Fox, he lay off in the bushes to see what would happen.

Well, he didn't have to wait long either, 'cause by and by Brer Rabbit came pacing down the road--lippity-clippity, clippity-lippity--just as sassy as a jaybird. Brer Fox, he lay low. Brer Rabbit came prancing along until he saw the Tar-Baby and then he sat back on his hind legs like he was astonished. The Tar-Baby just sat there, she did, and Brer Fox, he lay low.

"Good morning!" says Brer Rabbit, says he. "Nice weather we're having this morning," says he.

Tar-Baby didn't say a word, and Brer Fox, he lay low.

"How are you feeling this morning?" says Brer Rabbit, says he.

Brer Fox, he winked his eye real slow and lay low and the Tar-Baby didn't say a thing.

"What is the matter with you then? Are you deaf?" says Brer Rabbit, says he. "Cause if you are, I can holler louder," says he.

The Tar-Baby stayed still and Brer Fox, he lay low.

"You're stuck-up, that's what's wrong with you. You think you're too good to talk to me," says Brer Rabbit, says he. "And I'm going to cure you, that's what I'm going to do," says he.

Brer Fox started to chuckle in his stomach, he did, but Tar-Baby didn't say a word.

"I'm going to teach you how to talk to respectable folks if it's my last act," says Brer Rabbit, says he. "If you don't take off that hat and say howdy, I'm going to bust you wide open," says he.

Tar-Baby stayed still and Brer Fox, he lay low.

Brer Rabbit kept on asking her why she wouldn't talk and the Tar-Baby kept on saying nothing until Brer Rabbit finally drew back his fist, he did, and blip--he hit the Tar-Baby on the jaw. But his fist stuck and he couldn't pull it loose. The tar held him. But Tar-Baby, she stayed still, and Brer Fox, he lay low.

"If you don't let me loose, I'm going to hit you again," says Brer Rabbit, says he, and with that he drew back his other fist and blap--he hit the Tar-Baby with the other hand and that one stuck fast too.

Tar-Baby she stayed still, and Brer Fox, he lay low.

"Turn me loose, before I kick the natural stuffing out of you," says Brer Rabbit, says he, but the Tar-Baby just sat there.

She just held on and then Brer Rabbit jumped her with both his feet. Brer Fox, he lay low. Then Brer Rabbit yelled out that if that Tar-Baby didn't turn him loose, he was going to butt her crank-sided. Then he butted her and his head got stuck.

Brer Box walked out from behind the bushes and strolled over to Brer Rabbit, looking as innocent as a mockingbird.

"Howdy, Brer Rabbit," says Brer Fox, says he. "You look sort of stuck up this morning," says he. And he rolled on the ground and laughed and laughed until he couldn't laugh anymore.

By and by he said, "Well, I expect I got you this time, Brer Rabbit," says he. "Maybe I don't, but I expect I do. You've been around here sassing after me a mighty long time, but now it's the end.

And then you're always getting into something that's none of your business," says Brer Fox, says he. "Who asked you to come and strike up a conversation with this Tar-Baby? And who stuck you up the way you are? Nobody in the round world. You just jammed yourself into that Tar-Baby without waiting for an invitation," says Brer Fox, says he. "There you are and there you'll stay until I fix up a brushpile and fire it up, "cause I'm going to barbecue you today, for sure," says Brer Fox, says he.

Then Brer Rabbit started talking mighty humble.

"I don't care what you do with me, Brer Fox, says he, "Just so you don't fling me in that briar patch. Roast me, Brer Fox, says he, "But don't fling me in that briar patch."

"It's so much trouble to kindle a fire," says Brer Fox, says he, "that I expect I'd better hang you," says he.

"Hang me just as high as you please, Brer Fox, says Brer Rabbit, says he, "but for the Lord's sake, don't fling me in that briar patch," says he.

"I don't have any string, " says Brer Fox, says he, "Now I expect I had better drown you, " says he.

"Drown me just as deep as you please, Brer Fox," says Brer Rabbit, says he, "But please do not fling me in that briar patch, " says he.

"There's no water near here," says Brer Fox, says he, "And now I reckon I'd better skin you," says he.

"Skin me Brer Fox," says he. "Snatch out my eyeballs, tear out my ears by the roots," says he, "But please, Brer Fox, don't fling me in that briar patch, " says he.

Of course, Brer Fox wanted to get Brer Rabbit as bad as he could, so he caught him by the behind legs and slung him right in the middle of the briar patch. There was a considerable flutter when Brer Rabbit struck the bushes, and Brer Fox hung around to see what was going to happen.

By and by he heard someone call his name and 'way up on the hill he saw Brer Rabbit sitting cross-legged on a chinquapin log combing the tar pitch out of his hair with a chip. Then Brer Fox knew he had been tricked.

Brer Rabbit hollered out, "Born and bred in the briar patch. I was born and bred in the briar patch!" And with that he skipped out just as lively as a cricket in the embers of a fire.

bullie
can you elaborate?....aliases seem to be a hot topic since i joined financial websites. ( several years ago ) its not something that particularly bothers me as they are generally identifiable by their style of posting/grammar etc. i also believe its a convenient cubby hole for certain posters to take refuge with their snide/un-informative/digs.

although a FAR superior site to advfn :o) certain peeps persist in calling anyone who is pro tad an alias of ainsoph.
take the bull by the horns......one strike and yuo are OUT. then MAM will be the place to BE.

all in mho of course

superrod - 30 May 2003 21:28 - 295 of 729

thanks densil
saved me getting out my janet and john books LOL

superrod - 30 May 2003 21:33 - 296 of 729

ps olie
arent you amazed at my willpower not answering your thread? trust me....tad at least 15p in a month

Densil - 30 May 2003 21:36 - 297 of 729

You picked up all the points then superrod?

superrod - 30 May 2003 21:42 - 298 of 729

errr
i think so
was yours a cryptic post?

Densil - 30 May 2003 22:06 - 299 of 729

It was the brambles superrod.
Thats what made me think of this bb. Brer fox - Neo/Oily thinking he's so smart and Brer Rabbit -Ains ending up surrounded -surrounded by briars -a lot of little pr*cks.
But still covered in tar because, even if you wriggle out, some of its sticks.

iago - 31 May 2003 08:32 - 300 of 729

Densil - You must be 50 years younger than I imagined.

Can we have a suitable Biggles story next please, im sitting comfortably so you can now begin.

"Its funny how people try and sneak in under the radar. It actually brings home just how many aliases posters actually had when denying they had any. We have 'interesting 'technology' to help us."

I welcome any technology that removes aliases and await any further news and advice on this. Keep up the good work and this site will become far superior to any other, including iii because there are loads of aliases and posters with hidden agendas over there, just like Advfn.

Superrod

"although a FAR superior site to advfn :o) certain peeps persist in calling anyone who is pro tad an alias of ainsoph."

I agree that some of the threads are excellent, here, and very informative too.

However, it does fall on the other foot, superrod, I was called an alias of the "bits and pieces" by a certain poster and I am far from anti-Tad. Advfn, iii, Fool and MoneyAm would be able to confirm I am not, quite easily here and now (I only use one name) and should I be lying I would expect to be contradicted accordingly by the moderators immediately. Just posting because there is two sides to every argument.

Besides, I understand TT is purchasing another computer with, if I am right, a new IP address. I guess he will be back here before we know it. Obviously I may be wrong, but I am entitled to my opinion. That is why credit card registration is absolutely necessary, because unless you have a dodgy credit card, you cannot lie about your name and address.

Just so as you get this absolutely right. I am pro Tad, am long and want Tad to succeed. My only failing was to disagree with a certain poster, once or twice, based on my complete dissatisfaction of the way Tad was/is being directed. I want news of deals and orders, an end of Gem, a profitable and strategically sound alliance/partnership with ETI just like everyone does. I may believe that Tad will be 20p someday or hope for more, but I have no substance to work on that allows me to say that, via a ramp, or an alias or any other mechanism.

Please accept I am not patronising you here. Just airing my views as politely as I can and, obviously honestly.

Have a good weekend all (sadly, I'm working today and tomorrow).

Beau
