The key is to always stay behind the UBERHOG to find out where the good stuff is, then cut in front for the kill :eek:

That's some good advice! "NO REGRETS" right? :D

Good post Bryan :thumbup: I've been very lucky in my short time here. Had great help from some of the "old timers", yourself included. Thank you to all those that have helped me along the way!
 
Resin,

Why don't you mix up some glue for him?

You can tell me what you want and I'll pick it up.

It's safer that way, I don't know much about chemistry.
 
Personally, I plan to arrive at Blade an unspecified number of days early with a tent.

If it can work for Star Wars tickets....

EDIT: In response to Wash (Samurai Poster) -- well, I thought the bottles went without saying! A man cannot live by tent alone.
 
First question on the application:

Do you think that a minority interest (publicly traded on a US exchange) prevents a majority interest foreign owner from being considered to have "control" of a US Corporation as "control" is described under section 482 of the Internal Revenue code? :o

P.S. I do not expect a reply but it is an interesting question.


Tony,
Your question is slightly unclear. Are you asking if a domestic third party having a minoty interest is sufficient to prevent the control relationship of the foreign-owned majority? If so, I'll be right back to you.

No widely held and traded on a major US exchange.

Again I don’t expect an answer, it is just an interesting question.

Actually that was an old problem I worked on and it ended up getting settled. I always wondered what the right answer was. We couldn’t come up with a strong answer and it wasn’t huge money so the client decided to settle.

I have no idea what it means because I never got a J.D. :confused:

Yes that one sentence must keep thousands of tax lawyers, economist and accountants employed world wide.
Edit.. it has been amended to two now.
 
I don't know what Jaxx is talking about.

I was happy that I got a pair of SOW's, #7 and 8 by Amy's count. Then I hear that Jaxx got 6 SOW's. I bet they were #1-6.

I thought I had finally out done him when he was having trouble with the Fire Warden, but he got his.

I don't know how I'll beat him to the trough.

I'm working on a diversionary tactic for the Blade show.

ACTUALLY... I got beat by only ONE person (Yes, I asked) ...So I guess that I got #'s 2-7!!!!! ...Coincidence??? ;) :D :D :D :thumbup::thumbup:
 
BURN HER!!!!

THAT is a cosmic question.

Are there any coincidences? Einstein would suggest...no. But Heisenberg and Schroedinger would say...yes.

I'm of two minds.
 
I got #7, Amy told me so.

You must have at least one fake out of the six.

Just send them to me and I'll sort it all out.
