gold eagle forum swingin' today:

Fellows, I decided to become a business reporter
(goArmy) Jun 19, 19:13

I think I can handle this:

Stocks plunge amid concerns that Fed will rise rates

Stocks rally amid optimism that Fed will not have to rise rates after yesterday?s plunge

Stock plunge amid concerns that Fed will rise rates after yesterday?s rally

Stocks rally amid optimism that Fed will not have to rise rates after yesterday?s plunge

And so on ?.

Writing about gold is even easier

Gold drops amid optimism of no inflation
Gold drops amid optimism of low inflation
Gold drops amid concerns of high inflation
Gold drops amid concerns of terrible hyperinflation
Gold drops amid concerns of plenty supplies of gold
Gold drops amid concerns of low supplies of gold
Gold drops amid concerns of no supplies of gold
Gold drops amid concerns of no monsoons in India
Gold drops amid concerns of too many monsoons in India
Gold drops amid concerns of a global war
Gold drops amid optimism of a lasting peace
Gold drops amid concerns of an inevitable planetary collision

Gold drops amid optimism that only half of our planet will be destroyed by an inevitable planetary collision

Gold drops amid relief that Mars will miss Earth by 300 miles

Gold drops amid concerns of too may rabbits in the Hillbilly Bob?s backyard

Gold drops amid - any combination of words, phrases, thesaurus, quotes in any language, any dialect, shape, form, time and dimension

Fellows, this is just to cheer you up :-)
(Bad joke, dohh)

Keep the faith and buy some gold. I already bought some today.

spot gold up .60 "down under"


He's ticked off....
(Orca) Jun 19, 18:29

The following commentator on another forum either burnt his toast this morning, or saw that gold was systematically taken down again this AM..... Whatever........... he is upset !!!!!!

SpudMaster: Was in the grocery last evening ... buying potatoes ... stopped to look around at my fellow Americans ... overweight ... sluggish ... dull faced ... spiritless ... globs of walking mega-sized french-fry fat on legs, pasty faces incapable of outrage, incapable of reason, consumer-cattle in their air-conditioned, flourescent-lit feed lot, milling about, waiting, waiting ... we couldn't fight and win a war now!

"Oh, our computerize weapons will save us!" Fool: we can barely maintain them now. In a war we sure won't be able to build them. Where are the American engineers? Chasing DOTCOM dollars? You do not build a fighter in a couple of months!

All the Americans could do is just stare with bovine-like incredulity as waves of PLA regulars screaming "Jiang! Mao! Jiang!" cut them down, their last thoughts being: "Mao? Where can I get some? Is it fat-free? No artificial dyes? Do you take plastic?" or maybe "Hey ... HEY! Assault rifles are illegal! You put that away right now or ..."

The Chinese Communists just laugh and plan their coming war with the slow certitude of a spider silently weaving a web about its victim. Quietly, quietly ... ... meanwhile our Arkansas Quisling openly rots out the nation on cue, lauding the stealth racism of multicultural - splitting Americans into entitled factions - alienated groups hating each other for imagined wrongs - corrupts, poisons, installs the most
tractable, avaricious weasels in his own image in Justice Dept. the FBI, the DOD ...

EB will probably be taking profit on his last gold shorts when the first reverse engineered ChiComm Tomahawk cruise missile flies through his verandah and knocks over the jigger of rum: "Oh bloody Hell! You got aviation fuel in my guacamole!"
