No no, quality i said, not quantity .... you only get so many years here, you can only wear one shirt at a time, so not much point in overdoing the acquisitiveness ... the thing where you say, if i can't take it with me i'm not going, doesn't really work, so you are left with the other buttons to play with .... try the reverb, it's deadly on that new merengue [just push the Mute button once for rap] Investments, yes they can provide entertainment ... i do have some, and just remembered this is that sort of thread, not a goof-off political place ..... well going into summer i plan to sit on cash generated by selling Wheaton recently [and Kinross before that, couple of other bits as well], sit on a bunch of juniors positions and stink-bid a few more through summer .... not all-golds all-the-time, sort of half and half now ... but, probably back to more golds before late August, see how it goes ...... hard to stay interested in stocks in the summer, i find, don't trade much, some hopeful orders placed GTC, that's about it .... generally i think the NazDow ramp will resume for a bit, but this will not hinder the azteca from ruling again, either, and he'll know his day is coming when other currencies fall against his gold, not just the usd .... that's the test for gold imho, to break out against the loonie, aussie, rand et al

Hi M, Spanish I agree. American ? or some variant will stick around. Mandarin good to learn. French ? Easy access here and makes Spanish a whole lot easier. Latin ? Was responsible for many 'A' s in highschool. Was a gimme for me. English ? Same problem for American. While China standardizes they fragment, hmmmm! rest ? don't matter unless maybe Punjabi / Urdu / Hindi but then they speak English anyway.. Yeah, some of that Kiwi wine is pretty good and inexpensive to boot.. regards Kastel
