  1. Berkshire Hathaway shareholders from all online communities are welcome to an unofficial gathering on Friday, April 30, 2010.

     

     

    You are invited to join as fellow shareholders unofficially gather on Friday, April 30, 2010 at the DoubleTree Hotel in Omaha to meet and have fun, starting at 4:00 pm and you can linger until 7:00 pm (or longer). There will be a short program at approximately 5:00 or 5:30.

     

    This is a casual atmosphere, with light snacks available. It's a "happy hour" type of gathering - not a formal dinner or anything of that sort.

     

    The DoubleTree is located on 16th and Dodge. There may be some street parking, otherwise, one can use the parking garage with an entrance from the South at 16th & Dodge street, just east of the First National Bank.

     

  2. If you are planning to attend the 2010 Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting, you're invited to attend a special presentation by Robert Miles titled The Genius of Warren Buffett: The Science of Investing and the Art of Managing. The program is scheduled for Friday, Apr 30, from 5 - 6 pm at The University of Nebraska at Omaha. The presentation is sponsored by the College of Business and the Executive MBA program. Attendance is COMPLIMENTARY but seating is limited so an RSVP is required to reserve your seat(s) by sending an email to tabler@mail.unomaha.edu for location, directions and parking information.

     

    Make sure you stop by later that evening for a FREE ice cream cone at the Dairy Queen, 404 N. 114th St (at Dodge) from 8:30 pm til 10 pm on Friday, Apr 30. You will meet over 17 authors of books related to Berkshire and value investing, including Bill Child, a Berkshire Hathaway CEO, former presidential candidate Ralph Nader and NYT best seller Roger Lowenstein. Cones are compliments of John Wiley & Sons publishers. Directions and more info click here

     

    If your travels take you to Los Angeles, you're also cordially invited to attend the 7th Annual Value Investor Conference on May 3 - 5, at Ayres LAX Hotel. Conveniently scheduled between Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway & Charlie Munger's Wesco Financial annual meetings. Review the agenda www.valueinvestorconference.com and register today!

  4. is there anyone else going to next years meeting that has not been there in years?

    we went in 1998 1999 2000

    i arranged the parties for the Yellow Brk Club in those years.

    i met Susie Buffett and Warren in 1998.

    i had a surprise party for Susie Buffett in 1998.

    Warren came too, i didn't expect him to come.

    i was nice tho and didn't kick him out.

    saw them again in 99 and 2000.

    met Andy Kilpatrick in 1998 also.

    i begged him to put my picture with Warren in his book.

    so he did  but i had to plead.

    met some other authors also.

    never met Bill Gates.

    i guess i can't bribe Gates with money.

  6. John and his wife Mary have owned Berkshire stock for many years.

    John was the one that got us on the moon in 1969.

    It was his design of the Apollo and LEM that was used for the moon flight.

    He is now 90 years old.

    There is a book about him just released this month.

    You can buy it on amzn.com.

    I ordered one and Andy Kilpatrick ordered one.

    It is on my web site on marlins life  page 3.

  7. this new website i have with the Berkshire pictures and other subjects has

    extensive stats.

    i can see where in the world each is looking from

    so far Russia, Japan, China, London eng, germany, taiwon, Austrailia

    Argentina, France probably left some out

    but over 90% are from looking from Parsads site here.

    it even shows a pin in a map where the source is.

     

    really neat:

     

    www.marlinsweb.com

    or

    www.webstarts.com/marlinspage

     

    same page different address.

  8. ok  so i lied  1 new picture  on berkshire page 3 from Andy's party

    Debbie Bosanek Whitney Tilson

    Scott Dinsmore and Sherrie Gregory

    i don't know Scott but Sherrie tells me that Warren set him up with

    CEO of Borsheims to buy a wedding ring.

  9. i have a new domain name

    i understand the old one still works

     

    the new one is   www.marlinsweb.com

     

    anyway i put a collage picture on page 4 of Berkshire

    i had put this together a few years ago.

    a member of our group had a brainstorm to send a framed picture of the collage to

    Warren for his birthday.

    heaven knows what he did with it.

    I don't suppose it's hung over his bed.

    now i can understand him having my picture hung in his livingroom but not the collage.

  10. asi said before  my website at geocities is be taken down.

    my new website is very similar.

    the menu is better i think.

    i started the website 10 years ago for Berkshire party pictures.

    I have not been to the meetings for some time so the pictures are

    from 98  99  2000

    the picture of the mouse pad is from this year on Berkshire page 2.

    the picture on page 3 of Berkshire party is from this year also

    I intend to go next year so i should have many more pictures.

    I am sure Warren misses me.

     

    the address of the site is:
