MIKE HUNT WAS A FORMER BIG SHOT WITH MERRIL LYNCH AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR 500 MILLION DOLLARS OF ACCOUNTS UNTIL THEY SWELLED TO A WHOPPING 5.3 MILLION DOLLARS.
ONE OF MIKE HUNT'S (U4TASF2) GREATEST PICKS WAS A SMALL STARTUP COMPANY NOW OWNED BY TIME WARNER CALLED THE Q TELEVISION NETWORK. MR. HUNT ORIGINALLY BOUGHT THE STOCK AT .02 CENTS AND IT QUICKLY DECLINED TO .005 CENTS AND MIKE HUNT DECIDED TO SELL NOT SEEING THE POTENTIAL. UNFORTUNATELY, TIME WARNER PURCHASED THE Q TELEVISION NETWORK FOR $1.50 PER SHARE AND WOULD HAVE MADE MIKE HUNT ONE OF THE RICHEST GAY MEN IN THE UNITED STATES (NEXT TO MICHAEL JACKSON AND GREG LOUGANIS). HOWEVER, WITHOUT THE BIG GAIN ON THE STOCK, MIKE HUNT WASN'T ABLE TO PAY FOR THE SURGERY TO REMOVE THE BEN WAH BALLS FROM HIS RECTUM WHICH RESULTED IN GANGREEN. MIKE HUNT WAS 53 AT THE TIME OF DEATH. DONATIONS CAN BE MADE TO STOCKHOLDERS OF QBID(Q TELEVISION NETWORK).

Did you conveniently forget about the confirmations from Seattle (somebody's sister or something) and the one from Philly? There were several others. Go on attacking me, but I will not jeopardize that employees' job. He did not know that his comments would be published.

Big organizational changes (new company officers) were made the next week. Even though I was on vacation, I did call back after the Fourth to verify the information.

I was immediately connected to a supervisor and got the distinct impression that he was most unhappy with the previous information given to me. I quickly ended the conversation.

I have worried about that young man everyday since I posted his comments. I gave his name. What would you have me do--provide his location too? Get him fired? How would that benefit you?

Even if he was just telling me that as a distasteful joke, I still want no part in causing anyone to lose their job.

Just in case you failed to read my reply to your attack yesterday, I will repost it for you.

kbpkt,

This is the second time that you have called me a liar. To be a liar, I would have had to post a false statement. If that had been the case, I would have retracted it and apologized to the board.

You are still wrong. I did not lie. Your name calling does not intimidate me, but it does reveal much about you and your methods.

I will not be a part of causing anyone to lose their job just to appease your demands.

You may recall that there were numerous others in different parts of the country who were also given the same information that I had received.

However, you and Sharkus chose only me to attack. I have read some of your posts on other boards, and have not seen such a reaction from you except on the QBID thread.

Now, the two of you show up together again.

You based your judgement on "if you don't give in to me and provide your personal information you are a liar".

Your reasoning reminds me of a child saying, "if you don't let me go first, you are not my friend."

If I had posted a lot of negative remarks about QBID, this conversation would have never happened. It appears that you over reacted when you read something positive about QBID.

Because I posted exactly what I was told over the phone, you attacked me, why?

I have never sold ONE of my shares--I'm not a daytrader. I do believe in QBID, but I would never post anything that was less than truthful.

That would not make any sense. Don't you know that the truth always comes out? How would posting something false help me or help QBID?

Your name calling is inappropriate and offensive, but it does not change me or what I am.

Truth seeks no corners.

(Sorry for the double posting)

Q Television Network Purchases Studio; Network Announces It Has Acquired Exclusive Rights to the International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics Championship

PALM SPRINGS, Calif., Sep 16, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Q Television Network (Pink Sheets:QBID) announced today that it has purchased a Butler Building to be used for its Palm Springs studio.

A Butler Building is a manufactured paneled steel building built by Butler. The studio will be reconstructed in Palm Springs. The 20,000 square foot building is 140' X 142' and 67 feet tall. The space and height will enable the network to "fly" the sets, or raise and lower sets as needed. The doors open the total width of the building and are 42 feet tall. The building is fully insulated and can be used to produce live shows once completed.

"Currently, we rent studios in Las Vegas, Fort Worth, New Orleans and now Palm Springs, California," said Frank Olsen, CEO and President of Q Television Network. "This will enable us to have production control, do pre and post-production work, hold events and have a live studio audience. When completed in January 2005, it will be a showcase studio, fully equipped with digital and uplink capabilities."

Q Television Network also announced it has been awarded exclusive rights to the International Gay and Lesbian Aquatics Championships (IGLA) 2004. The Network will broadcast the IGLA from October 6-11. The competition will be held in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. IGLA competitions include Diving, Swimming, Synchronized Swimming, Water Polo and for the first time a one-mile ocean swim.

About Q Television Network

This television network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.
