Back from Vacation
It was nice to take a week off and get away from it all. I didn’t completely escape everything, but it was nice to slow down and enjoy some time outdoors.
I noticed a good amount of discussion regarding FragranceNet.com and a comment regarding Refocus Group. Thank you for keeping up the discussion while I was gone.
Tonight, I will try to catch up on all the updates regarding going private transactions. I might not quite finish all the updates, but I plan on getting the list up-to-date by the end of this coming weekend.
I also just completed a transfer of this site to a new host, which will hopefully be a bit more reliable. I hope you did not experience any interruptions in service during the transfer. TheIcy.net will be providing free hosting service for Fat Pitch Financials. For a limited time, TheIcy.net is offering to set up others with free hosting accounts almost instantly. If you need a web host or are considering setting up your own blog, you might want to take advantage of this offer.
Finally, you might have noticed a new feature on Fat Pitch Financials. I just added a new page that allows you to subscribe to receive email notifications whenever any new articles are posted here. I have received several emails asking for this service, and I’m glad to now be able to offer email notifications in addition to an XML news feed.

Hi George..
I’m mad at myself for not finding out about “companies going private” a couple of years ago. What opportunities lost! Thanks to your website and Stuart’s “Cigarbutthunters” group, I can make a few less risky bucks.
I was over at the SEC website and found the following link: http://www.sec.gov/answers/gopriv.htm
It explains the process for the unfamiliar. It seems that come July, 2006, this option to “go private” will not be allowed. Bummer! I thought it could go on forever.
