Growing older

I have always been pretty lucky when it has come to the aging process, but I guess that all good things must come to an end. Over the past year or so, I have noticed that my hair has not, how do we say, been as lush as it once was. It never really bothered me until the other day when I really noticed that the top and the sides have been growing in at different rates. To some, it is no big deal, and it really is not to me, except that it is a sign that I am getting older. I guess I should be happy that it has held up as long as it has considering my lineage (My mother’s father was like Mr Clean). I think the truth of the matter is that my brother is 3 years older than I, and has all his hair – and he lives a crappy lifestyle. I eat healthy, take care of my body, and I still got the short end of the stick compared to him (He also had better vision than I did pre-lasik). What can you do? I guess I will have to decide whether it will be Captain Picard or Mr. Clean down the road.

In other news….
My best friends going away party is Saturday. It should be fun, as there will be lots of people and softball that will make the Bad News Bears look like the New York Yankees. No excuses for those who have no athletic ability. There will also be beer and bar-b-q (including vegetarian) later in the evening (6:00-6:30ish).

A week from Friday, Ken and I leave for our annual manly outdoor excursion. This year it is hiking the North Country Trail from Grand Marais to Munising in 2 days (45 miles or so), kayaking Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, and a small brew pub tour, including places like Tahquamenon Falls Brewery & Pub. It should be an exciting fun filled 6 days.

Did I mention that we are now members of the NetFlix community (the $10 plan)? I am eagerly awaiting the first movie “House of Flying Daggers” and then “Afterlife,” which is one of my favorite films of all time. We had been avoiding it, but we could not find the indie film selection locally.

One last thing. I hope that Detroiters woke up and voted in their primary today. Kwame needs to go, as does all of the shitty council members.

"BREAKING NEWS"
===============

-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.

These newly enhanced Global Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth before they can
be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for lumber is 30-50 years.

Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number of other benefits.
Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and the lack of oils and sap found in the wood
make it resistant to forest fire, ensuring higher returns on investments.

The wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.

Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140 Million
with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With anticipated
growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during its initial 9-year cycle.

Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153 Million in revenues.
As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree continues to grow around the world
EGTY believes additional multi-million dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of 250,000 infant plants per month.

Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business owners in New Zealand,
Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular and profitable fast growing infant tree plants.
Inquiries from the governments of Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.

Conclusion:

The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
known Companies That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens.
This stock will not be a Secret for long. Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right
Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!
