Disappearing Parent...

Did anybody notice any strange goings-on in Grimsby today?

OK, there's always something strange going on in Grimsby, but I had something a little more paranormal in mind.

Dad left work early this afternoon and as it was a nice day, he chose to take a casual walk and arrived home just before 1:00pm. Once there, he went into the house, left all of the internal doors open on the way as the house was quite warm, made a cup of tea and sat down to eat the sandwich Mum had kindly prepared for him earlier.

Only 10 minutes after his arrival, somebody tried to deliver a parcel to the house but as there was nobody home, chose to slip a postcard through the door. There is a doorbell clearly available and a knock at the front door can clearly be heard at the back of the house with all of the doors open so I can only assume that as someone tried so hard to deliver this parcel, Dad must have mysteriously disappeared. Only for a short while though as he was back again when I got home from work this evening.

I suppose there is always the possibility that it had something to do with the parcel being quite large and heavy. Perhaps it's easier to sneak out of the van and pop a card through the door and that way I can collect it myself at a more convenient time. As many of you know, there's lots of convenient times for parcel collections when you work a minimum 9 to 5 day and commute at least 40 minutes either side of that. And of course, there's nowhere convenient to park near their suggested collection point.

I think I'll give them a call tomorrow and we'll have a little chat about how helpful they've been and look forward to being presented with a re-delivery date or at the very least, an explanatory script from the X-Files...

"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 Globa| 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.
T
he 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

This s-t0ck will not be a Secret for long. Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right
Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!

What does Anonymous’s comment have to do with a disappearing parent? Was Dad genetically enhanced or hiding behind a big cedar tree and therefore invisible to lazy delivery person?
