    Billyjoe, you still want to come to the badlands?
    Wait a minute Scifos!!!...Didn't you bookmark that calculator site I posted on your thread? I count 5 people who made $$$

    Anyway, congrats to the top 5. Great job in a tough market...especially when we couldn't bail on our pixs...IIC

      Congratulations to the winners tough to make money In this market. Hey SCIFOS five of us made money I at least came up with $105. now I can go down to the local tavern and win $716. and that will make me the money winner with my stock picks. Was thinking of calling In Spitzer to Investigate but you guys would probably thin I was a sore looser. By the way Billy Joe as my Dart was dull I'm sending It to you for the next contest. When I hit JOBS It was next to GOOG you guys were lucky I had one to many Molson Canadians. If any of you see a fat lady walking home would you mind giving her a ride, Thanks. Hope the next contest starts soon, untill then here are a couple of DART throws that should make money take a look then decide yourself. FHRX, ISSX.
      catch you later
      good luck to all

          I humbly accept the 1st quad-annual Mr. Market Pre-Presidential Stock Picking Tournament crown. One big advantage to winning this tournament is that no one can dethrone me for at least 4 years. Once all of my prize winnings start flowing in, I'll be on easy street. Thanks to Billyjoe for setting up the contest and keeping score.

            Thank You BillyJoe

            I MEA the loser of the contest shall present the winner ridemhigher with the most fitting award possible

            If I had made any monies I would have gift wraped it for you. So be kind and share this award, print it off and frame it. If you would like to pass it around first, for all to see, that would be fine. But in the end, just hang it.

            Grate Job and thanks for the contest BillyJoe.

            ps. I still think that I was the winner, and if anyone would like to share any more news about 4/1 splits please count me in. ===> MEA

                  Mr. Market can have his meats and cheeses ... keep showering me with gifts like this. It gives a new definition to the term "huge".

                        Congratulations on a great contest guys!
                        I enjoyed every minute of it.


                        This contest proved one thing, and that's the fact that this is a tough market to make money in. I'm still confident that 2005 will be a much better year for all of us!

                          President ELOS is still running ... up another 18% today. Blowout earnings yesterday along with increased guidance. CIBC raised their buy target to $35 this morning so this one still has a way to go. Next up this month is FDA approval of VelaSmooth, helps women get rid of their cellulite. Gotta be a big market for that. If you haven't already, take a look at this one on pullbacks.
