great value soon, page-16

great paleolithic days around olympian campfires donned in babybear skins, musing over Olympian folklore about vast treasures lying in territories of the north and sketching out Grand Olympian Road Maps of future journeys of discovery to the East, hey Apollon?

I remember plotting the "11s" markerbuoys in honour of the "holy 12" and staring at the starry heavens pondering what lay beyond.

Well, the dream began taking on a morphology of reality at the first marker buoy and reached critical mass at the second where we exchanged our bloodied bearskins for crispy clean starship garb.

And after trialling the new Galactic Star Class Cruiser at the boundaries of charted space, we are now leaving the fourth in our wake with the seventh in our sights, powered by an alignment of cosmic forces and already with one notch on the handle of our photon torpedo guns haha.

So where to next Apollon? Well, the Holy grail remains our first mission and we place faith in Zeus and his brothers to guide us swiftly and safely thru the gathering cosmic storms to our initial goal.

Yesterday around another campfire in the company of the Ark's staunchest Olympian rowers, visions beyond the Grail were conjured and based on the emerging realities of the glowing mellow, something which was not in sight in the paleolithic days.

I know I have oft been criticised by younger warriors for my conservatism but personal MO is in accordance with Madame Fu's 5 year development plans. Our voyage began in 2004, even tho its seeds were planted a decade prior, hence my sights only extend to y2009 atm and where I hope to see emergence of a corporate maturity at a time of likely fair cosmic winds for the resources sector. It suffices in my mind to think we may reach the Golden Fleece based this hopeful maturity from then, well beyond the Holy Grail.

But yeah, the Fleece may only be at the "third". But what of the "fifth" I was asked yesterday, and what if its an "extended fifth" into the forecast Kondratieff resources peak? Thats the ensuing 5 year road map for which I have no vision as yet. Stay tuned haha.

But yeah, if Russian Olympian "K" is on the mark and Jimmy Dee is on the ball with his "multiples of the IT boom" cake call, it may indeed result in an extended "fifth" to the far reaches of the uncharted Universe, well beyond my own sights, praise Zeus! And powered by the forecast extreme global shortage in yellowcake as we are filling the Jungle King's glory box with multiples of Malcolm's base case cake bake ... to dream hey?

Like the good Olympian scout of my youth, I remain prepared for the opportunistic worst and hope for the best which I continue to "see" thru the cosmic smoke. And yesterday's new weekly closing high on such a cosmically critical day only fuels my increasing confidence we are watching the evolution of an Ozzie legend in the making.

So yeah, feel priveleged that by the hands of the Fates we find ourselves aboard the Ark .... but stay alert for shark sign as we have many adventures and perils still to face.

And consider too we must soon be advised our leaders' plans for the proposed base metals JV and for which our approvals will be sought. This will no doubt inspire healthy Olympian debate. For as our strength and global fame evolve, any deal offered now must be to our complete and greatest advantage, for we are now in the drivers seat.

What wonderful dilemmas to be facing, praise Zeus !
