LOL! Nah, I only read that site once in awhile...after a few years of being a dumbazz bear/dumbazz gold bug, one kinda knows what they're gonna say!<G/NG> But the Fed and the government are being driven in a direction that makes gold the macroeconomic no-brainer of our lifetimes, so I'll ride the rides a while longer.... I hope it works out for you as well! Regards Patron PS: Richard Thompson put it best: Let me ride on the wall of death one more time Let me ride on the wall of death one more time You can waste your time on the other rides But this is the nearest to being alive Let me take my chances on the Wall of Death You can go with the crazy people in the crooked house You can fly away on the rocket or spin in the mouse The tunnel of love might amuse you And Noah's Ark might confuse you but Let me take my chances on the Wall of Death On the Wall of Death All the World is far from me On the Wall of Death It's the nearest to being free Well you're going nowhere when you ride on the carousel And maybe you're strong, but what's the use of ringing a bell The switchback will make you crazy Beware of the bearded lady Oh let me take my chances on the Wall of Death You are going nowhere when you ride on the carousel And maybe you're strong, but what's the use of ringing a bell The switchback will make you crazy Beware of the bearded lady Let me take my chances Let me take my chances Let me take my chances

<<Can you or others translate the terms on some of the recent posts? downtown? tips? whack a mole?>> Downtown-prices are going to drop tips-refers to a post or comment by Tippet, frequent CFZ poster (or else Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, depending on the context) whack a mole-refers to shorting a stock when it pops up to a certain level, usually at resistence points. Usually for short term trades. I have an old CFZ glossary around somewhere at home, if I remember, I'll send you a copy of the slang.
