my apologies for spelling but after a beer, several dark rum and zero(must keep one's sugar content down), a sip of the little lady's wine and back to rum(who put in the zero?!!), i'm ready for your counter and an amande biscuit with a cafe.

you appear to have had a pretty neat life chasing something. life in mejico seems to have supplied an adventure which went mano a mano with your zest for life. like a great sunrise or sunset, it's an adventure to smile at.

i'm hoping jim is chasing something similar. he's in fabled land where silver and gold can be found. the phantoms of 100 years ago will help him discover what's always been there and what was mined before the violence abruptly stopped the mining.

shaka truckmeister talked of possibilities. would be interesting for him to email jimbo/gary with those numbers to see if that possibility exists. i do think september will see a rise in share price in a number of the companies i hold. that's a wish but also a realistic view in my opinion.

i looked at our half moon tonight and saluted the cristophe columbus of our time, neil armstrong. wished him a happy voyage.

cheers
