Yeah, but I don't see any signs that the market are ready to improve!

"...is there some reason you have to go...."
This is my responsibility. My husband takes care of upkeep, physical stuff, I take care of paperwork, renting and stuff.
Besides, I will take our girl with me. She is five eight and one-hundred-ten pounds and appears to be a daytime walking vampire. You know, Goth and all that.
I plan to wear my Elvira (Cassandra Peterson) Halloween get-up.
Heck, the boy is all strung out on meth. He will wet his pants, scream and run.
This is true. The mini-blinds in the front room, where he sleeps on a couch because his wife refused to sleep with him, those mini-blinds, the first half-dozen from bottom up, the very ends are broken off from his constantly window wigging. This is, sitting up quickly and peeking out the windows everytime there is a slight sound outside the house.
Truthfully, I only need to tape the notice to the door and have a witness along. Same for mailing plus witness.
Laws here in California very much favor the tenants. They are very difficult to evict if they put up a fight. Usually bad tenants can remain for three to six months before you can have the marshall's office toss them.
Our hope is he will not destroy the house, a beautiful home, while he is there having his meth induced paranoia fits.
Shoot, in Oklahoma, Luther and Herschel would drag him out, beat him in the front yard, haul him up to Mountain Fork bridge and toss him off like Billyjoe McCallister.
A few years back we had a lady refuse to move out. She is one of those you see on television, total trash hog. Finally, after four months, marshall's office does a lock out. Late at night, she and her pot head kids set up a huge camping tent in the front yard and move in.
I am really pissed off.
We had to start over by filing criminal trespass charges. Cops pop her. Rather strange a crew dropped by with a big truck and hauled off all her belongings.
Not sure how that happened. Odd.

This is me in my gorilla outfit! I bought this to wear for my husband, you know, at night. Sometimes he wears it for me. We take turns.
I might wear this then pound on his door, wake him up (he sleeps all day). You suppose a gorilla pounding on the door of a strung out meth freak would make him psychotically paranoid?

Purl gurl re: Almi Good to see you are keeping the faith here gal. I'm out presently and have put my profits in some other promising pennies such as pbls, acmg, and tcll. I've whittled my iesv down to 20k from 90k also. It has been an excercise of extreme patience. Selling almi was tough but with the sp rising on little revenue felt there was little support at 2$ and investors would eventually take some money off the table which is happening here. It should bounce soon however.

"It has been an excercise of extreme patience."
This is one of my strong traits; patience. I look to the future, a year, two years, often more. I willing to wait for profits, which explains our family being deeply vested in real property.
IESV, just the opposite for me! I am still accumulating, approaching 250k shares. IESV is certainly frustrating. Currently far undervalued, I am frustrated by this daily dumping of shares, Cornell or naked shorting. One thing is certain, a lot of people are buying those shares; volume is very high.
I did sell some ALMI at 2.05 - 2.08 to buy a 52 Chevy panel truck, and sold some in anticipation of a dip in prices. I have replaced those shares and more during this recent dip in prices.
In the future, a couple of years, I am sure ALMI will be at 3.00 to 5.00 per share. This is worth the wait. When this time arrives, I will decide if more future gains will come.
I am anticipating their next 10Q in a month or so. Jacobson reports $250k in revenues per month from contract mining. I am much interested to discover how this will effect his bottom line. I do expect mild losses but am very curious about quarter revenues.
ALMI is very nice. This is a safe and sane long term investment with a virtual guarantee of decent profits; no worry.

Edited by me, of course. It looks like a bit more revenue for our guys.

This most recent announcement suggests some may have exercised options, or news leaked out amongst those in the know, which would suggest a dip to afford a buying opportunity.
A suggestion, not so much a fact.
Nonetheless, Jacobson should be able to produce a decent 10Q this quarter, and next quarter.
These recent contract revenues may or may not show on his current quarter 10Q filing. Possibly the Sunshine mine will show some. I doubt this new contract will show for this quarter.

I've attributed the recent dip to boredom more than anything. I would rather wait a bit between decent PR's than to read "fluff" that amounts to nothing.

Bdgee, having raised a son (25 today) and his having two sons, I have learned to use euphemisms in lieu of actual curses. I'm now 600 miles away from them, but old habits die hard. However, you're quite correct in saying "b.s" as it's a bit more accurate.
I'll wait through the occasional dips that ALMI seems to go through. This is the one stock that has made our IRA look pretty darned good.

Let me suggest looking at another I think might be a good hold. I like the long term prospects of BGO and I like the near term chances of it too.

ALMI did this same slow movement up and down all last year and then suddenly doubled in no time so I am patient with this one and i'm loving it.

i must admit - barely any time to keep up with markets lately. got assigned to do a big job out at GM so now my daily schedule looks like: 4:30am - get up, walk dog, shower; arrive at work at 6am, leave at 5pm, pick up kids from summer camp and shuttle them around to gymnastics/dance/whatever, get home around 7-8pm, walk dog, have dinner, fall asleep on couch around 9:30pm. repeat: Mon-Sat, then clean house/grocery shop/do laundry/etc sunday. yeesh, i need a vacation!
anyway, re: ALMI, nice bit of news today, i also had a limit buy trigger and averaged up this week.

Looks maybe another nice day building for ALMI. Very slowly rising. Traders continue to react positively to recent news articles about extra revenue.
I like this business plan of Jacobson. He avoids financing as much as possible, preferring to pay cash for development of his Dragon mine. Slow way to move but financially prudent.
Going on several years, now, and Jacobson has kept every promise he made.
