(Other OTC:OMOG.PK - News) announces today that it has opted not to pursue the recent offer from Consumer Direct of America concerning the Panola County Lease. The company, upon further due-diligence, will not be finalizing the letter of intent signed on February 22nd 2006 to sell its interest in this 1,116-Acre Fredericksburg Prospect.

OMDA Oil and Gas, Inc. is also pleased to announce today that drilling is expected to commence within the next several weeks on its three well program with KY-Tenn Oil Inc. (KTO). The company entered into a proposed drilling program on February 15th with KTO for three 2100-ft. wells to test the Chattanooga shale formation. As reported then, this active field has other potential formations producing in the Monteagle and Fort Payne zones, and upon completing the drilling and the logging of these wells, the primary target will be the Chattanooga Shale.
Adam Barnett, Chairman, stated, "While we have declined finalization of the original Letter of Intent to sell our Panola County Lease to Consumer Direct of America, we are still actively pursuing the best option for this asset. We are currently in talks with the operator of Panola to maybe pursue other more lucrative offers, and I will keep our shareholders up-to-date as more information becomes available." Barnett went on to say, "Regarding the three well project with Ky-Tenn Oil, Inc. (KTO), I am pleased to be reporting the timeframe of its upcoming drilling. I will be anxiously awaiting the initial results from this project and look forward to sharing those results as they develop."

I suspect people are selling for a loss. We touched .0065 earlier and I almost pulled the trigger on more shares. I'm still holding out for a lower price.

You can't blame people for being nervous. We are all nervous! But, if you don't take a risk, you won't get the reward. All of these pennies are calculated risks. I just can't see selling at a loss though. I wonder who is selling? Why would someone sell at a loss before news is out? I've watched this many times. People selling off low right before it goes through the roof and then complaining that they should have held longer. Duh. Doesn't make any sense!
