    primeone,

    It's simply about AMBIGUITY.

    A good example would be the following sentence from one of YB's posts:

    "Look on the bright side despite past trebulations for it will NOT come back as you might all have dreamed for...., unfortunately!"

    Now, this has ambiguity. It could mean

    1) Find something else to be happy about because it will not come back at all. (unlike many have dreamed for).

    or

    2) Be happy for although it will not come back in the way that many were hoping, it will come back in a different version.

    As far as I can se it is impossible to know what was meant here without further information from the author. You might venture a guess if you have a deeper understanding of how the writer structures language.

    If the meaning of this is so clear to you, then you might not mind explaining it to me and please explain why it's one and not the other.

    Thank you in advance,

    rol

    PS! I'm not trying to be a smarta*s, I really want to know!

    PSPS! YB, I could have asked you directly, but as you haven't answered the requests from others, I thought it would be a lost cause...

    Enough of the sarcasm - please, whether it be towards me or any other member of this forum, and you just managed to insult about all of us. Hope you feel better now and that your superiority meter can take a rest, because I had no idea that there were grades for competency in this forum.
    Alright folks (all folks; not just guest1)...Let's not get caught up in quibbling about everyone's level of understanding and/or deciphering abilities. For the most part, persons in this thread are looking for and hoping for the same things. Let's keep the barbs to a minimum. Thank you...

    Who did Yogi get this "enlightenment" from?

    BM? Very unlikely that he could find BM let alone manage to have a conversation. After all if we can't understand what Des is talking about, how would Bryan?

    BN? Even more unlikely for even more obvious reasons.

    Who or what then could provide the definitive proof that Pips is finished.

    One possibility is that he may have entered the Robbers Cave and seen the missing millions. That would be definitive all right but would also assume some complicity with the robbers. Is that what he is trying to say? That the greedy ones have won and they have shown him the missing money?

    Is that the reason why Des is talking of further visits and investments in Thailand or elsewhere in the Far East? Perhaps there is a new programme that he is involved in.

    Who knows? Did he bump into Mark McLuskey or Gary? Is that why he mentions Thailand rather than Malaysia?

    Trouble with writing riddles is that people might see more than he intended!

    Either way it makes no difference to me at all. What goes around comes around and one who gloats today may get a clout tomorrow.

    We all knew that Pips would not come back in the same form. It has undoubtedly been decimated by attacks on many fronts.

    Our HOPE is that as happened with the Golden Womb demise, Bryan would arrange another programme to arise from the ashes as soon as his injunctions are lifted.

    This would have to be started from scratch. New staff that can be trusted. New arrangements with the Banks and Regulators to ensure complicity.

    New premises in a favourable jurisdiction. New relationship with the members and in fact everything new.

    In fact is Des really telling us anything new? We all knew he was acquisitive and impressed by tangible assets. Didn't CmyC5 tell us that? Who else is called CMYMERC or Checkoutmybeamer?

    I think he has just had a bit of luck and wants to tell us all about his new prosperity in a round about way.

    My bet is that all this is a distraction and that we may be closer to getting the news we are waiting for.

    And that my friends is what I am placing my two bob on!

    Interesting,

    You mean the forclosure sale signs on Bistro, coffee shop and other run down investment property purchased with our money?

    Good luck to all, Mike

    You know this becuase you have actually viewed such, or just negative speculation?

    Just because they are closed now does not indicate that they cannot re-open and thrive.

    SM and Guest1....above average as in analytic qualities. Why read something else into that, hmmm and get stressed out.
    The last part of that message is directed to Yogi and his good lady since I know them well but not you to be so informal ;)
    cheers

    What a weekend.........

    Pippyman, Pippyman, Pippyman..............how can you say that with a straight face? Proof???!!!!! What do you need, a copy of the airfare bill? Jeez, we were TOLD the name of the individual to start the "new Bank" along with the timing, and he just up and disappeared. FACT: Pips membeship were informed that a Bank in Cambodia was going to be arranged for the benefit of the membership, and that a CERTAIN individual was to negotiate, coordinate, blah......... WHAT happened to that person? WHERE is the money that was given for this? And since I'm going this way, WHERE ARE ALL BM'S "BROTHERS and CLOSE, PERSONAL FRIENDS?????" I don't hear them defending their brother, and I certainly don't see them accounting for their activities since, oh let's say April of 2005? We know where BM is, and what he has been doing. Where, oh where, have the little (and big) Rats gone? Oh where, oh where can they be? (Sing along now........)

    Point is, this thread has HOPED to point toward certain facts, happenings, and questions. Every time a relevant fact or question is raised, we get "Prove it". Uh, uh. Not anymore. YOU prove they didn't. YOU prove they had nothing to do with this. YOU tell us what happened. Point is, YOU don't know. Those that say they do, only know part of the story (myself included). I DON'T know it all. But what I do know is contrary to what you ALL have been told and are being told now. Don't believe it.......BM is still there, still fighting, and I want to know WHY BM's brothers aren't helping him, and WHY the questions concerning missing funds are being sidestepped by THEM, and WHERE the redirected funds to merchants went, and WHY only certain members and merchants were cherry-picked to recieve funds when all others were waiting, and.............

    Everybody have a nice weekend?????

    And what's more, there are certain "brothers" and "friends" of BM being touted as little innocent lambs and saints............I don't THINK so. Good people do good in the face of adversity, they don't run and hide.

    Arc,

    Surely by now BNM has a clue as to what really happened? Then again, maybe by now they are seeing it.. We can only hope.

    IMHO, I think they always did (have a clue)........finding, getting, making sense of it all.... that's the hard part
