Bring on the semi-annual dividends, and lets see them increase annually to boot.  My sense is the share price will be heading in the right direction as well.

You bet.  Always take the money is my mantra.  Dividend paying portfolios work well with short term and long term goals. 

BB posters are not the ones I want any company to listen to when making decisions for the good of the company and it's owners (that would be us).  This is a place where everyone gets to play Monday Morning arm chair quarterback, whereas our management team plays in real time.

These are not dumb guys.  They get it.  Paying dividends is one way to prove they have their Big Boy pants on and they are ready to move to the next level once the current issues are behind us (J2, warrants, Fish, etc).

All IMO.
