I've always felt that the West has a greater energy then the the East, North and even South. That's why I bought this company. I hope I am richer than all of you someday. But don't worry, I will let you work for me and teach my children kids how to use the toilet.

Have a great day!

At one time, I was excited about this stock; however, since it is now involved with the Justice Dept. I have dropped it like a "hot potato."
