well, their challenge must've worked better than they planned... I've never heard of www.bluway.com but i know that www.orbitz.com/gaytravel has been kickin' ass for years! LOL ... this would also be a kick ass place for QBID to advertise...

This should go really well, probably hear a lot of things about it once the show happens...
Actually, if you look at the floorplan again, the booth is nowhere near the main entrance where most of the attendees will be coming and going through. It's near a minor entrance which may only be a fire exit for the exhibit. However, the up side is that we're in between other high profile booths. So at least we should have high traffic flow.

You know, no one works harder or longer on QBID then U4, if he wants to be sarcastic or what ever someone called him, who cares. No one seems to mind reading his posts and asking his advice, if you did your dd and read the last 66 pages or so of the QBID threads you would know his humor and when to laugh and when not to. I for one am glad to see the new names here, and when i can i try to answer their ???. but don't stop your dd, it is still very important, and help get the word out, that's what has gotten us to where we are. I spend so much time on Gay web sites posting QBID blurps my wife is starting to wonder about me. On a side note i got a response back from a lady at the palm springs chamber of commerce. They know triangle network, who they are and what they do. She informed me that they were members in good standing at one point but have not re-newed. Hopefully they are way too busy to worry about that right now......GLTA today, fasten your seat belts.....and remember post QBID everywhere

A little something to look forward to for QBID. Just saw a stock posted on another thread, MDDM. It went from around .02 to $5.20 in 1 month. 26,000%. WITH NO NEWS... If you look at the 5yr chart the high was around $1.50... QBID has broke some barriers and now we must all hold tight and watch this stock grow upwards past $1-2 3 dollars..New PR's will be released and upcoming events will be happening.
Don't forget to send CASH some money for the Trade Show trip. qbid_rich@yahoo.com

Man, I only slept for about and hour and a half last night. I'm reading on lots of message boards how people aren't getting much sleep over this. It's crazy watching my e-trade account go up in value real high (when it was 2.8 cents yesterday) and then FLYING right back down to where we started the day (1.5 cents). If it does this again today, I think I'm gonna have a heart attack! If it goes up to almost 3 again today, me and one million of my shares are out (that still leaves me with over 1.2 million, though). Hopefully today's another GREAT day in the land of QBID! Good luck everyone!

Was just listening to Howard Stern. There was a brief mention of a gay and lesbian channel. No specifics nor did it mention Triangle Television Media.

GOOD MORNING ALL--AMAZING WHAT SLEEP CAN DO TO HELP A PERSON FEEL BETTER. LOL
YOU ARE ALL RIGHT. TEAMWORK IS WHAT KEEPS THIS THING GOING.
JANIE--THIS BUD'S FOR YOU. YOU DO EXCELLANT DD (AS DOES EVERYONE ELSE) SUFRFING THE WEB SITE FOR GAY/LESBIAN INFORMATION--PROVING OVER AND OVER THE HUGH DEMAND AND MONEY AND SUPPORT THAT QBID HAS BEHIND IT. (ALTHOUGH GIRL I AM STARTING TO WORRY ABOUT YOU.) LOL
WE BOTH NEED TO REMEMBER TO FIND US SOME MEN. (WHEN WE GET RICH OFF QBID.) LOL NO TIME NOW AS THERE IS ALWAYS WORK TO BE DONE.
UF, ALWAYS 100% POSITIVE WITH LOTS OF HUMOR. YOU KEEP THE BOARD FOCUSED AND POSITIVE AND REALISTIC. GRANTED AT TIMES OVER THE TOP--BUT PEOPLE WHO KNOW YOUR PERSONALITY KNOW YOUR DEDICATED, INTELLIGENT, WITTY AND SOMETIMES JUST 2 FAST FOR U--I.E. GENERAL PUBLIC. JUST NEED TO CLARIFY YOUR WIT AND SARCASAM FOR NEWBIES WHO AS WE ALL KNOW CONFUSE EASILY--BUT WE WILL ALL BE NEWBIES FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES. DEALING WITH PENNIES IS LIKE BEING A NEWBIE EVERYDAY. LOL TEAMWORK HELPS AND SUPPORTS ALL AND ESPECIALLY HELPS QBID..
GREAT POINTS AND INFORMATION POSTED HERE EVERYDAY. EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US TAKES THAT INFORMATION AND SPREADS IT ON. BY DOING SO WE SPREAD THE WORD AND GENERATE THE MASSES. WE HERE ON ALLSTOCKS DID THIS. YOU CAN SAY WHAT EVERY YOU WANT--BUT IN MY MIND QBID WOULD NOT BE WHERE IT IS TODAY WITHOUT THE HONESTY-DUE DILIGENCE-INTELLIGENCE-WILLNESS TO HELP NEWBIES-AND TEAMWORK ON THIS THREAD. NOW ENOUGH B.S. LETS GET DOWN TO BUSINESS. MAKING MONEY.
QBID HAS JUST BEGUN--WE HAVE GOTTEN THIS FAR WITH VERY LITTLE CONFLICT- THAT IS AMAZING AS WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT TRADING STYLES AND OPINIONS. I PERSONALLY RESPECT ALL OF YOURS.
NOW LETS GO OUT THERE AND KICK SOME A&^S. WHAT 22 DAYS TILL SOFT LAUNCH. PEOPLE ARE COMING OUT OF THE WOODWORK. THE MASSES ARE FORMING. LET'S DO IT.

I know I don't post much (work can be a drag) but I'm with you guys in spirit. I enjoy reading all your posts and it was great to see so many positives as the price retraced yesterday (I was up just over $100k at one point!). It was really encouraging.
This roller coaster is REALLY causing a lot of stress and in a way I'm glad I'll be gone and out of touch for the next trading week. I'm hoping to come back to see my .115 sell order filled without the daily stress. Just getting my investment back and taking a little profit for other ventures. Don't worry, I'll still hold a lot after that. No way I'm selling out yet!
I appreciate all the hard work so many of you put into the DD. You guys (& gals) are awsome!
And I don't want to seem greedy (oh, what the hell, yes I do) but do we have any new prospects on the horizon?

YOU ALWAYS MAKE MY DAY!! WHENEVER YOU GET RID OF THE WIFE--YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND ME! LOL
BY THE WAY--I REALLY AM SEXY. 5'2' 135 lbs. DARK COMPLEXTION AND SHORT DARK HAIR. SALLY FIELD TYPE WITH DIMPLES. LOL DON'T SMOKE BUT TEND TO PARTY ON A REGULAR. OF COURSE TO ME LIFE IS A PARTY. LOL I AM TAKING APPLICATION FOR A LIFE. SINCE QBID I NEED SOMEONE TO LIVE MINE FOR ME. I JUST HAVEN'T HAD TIME LATELY. LOL
