hello shades, give me enough gold and i will buy you a computer, hire an assistant to load the game up for you, have another donate a kidney to replace the dialysis machine, employ a bunch to dance with your niece, and if necessary, buy brittney. Do you know why this can be? Because gold is moolah, the true, one, eternal, and only :0)

Gold has a lease rate. Do you know why? Because gold is moolah, the true, one, eternal, and only :0)

Gold can buy OIL? Do you know why? Well, you should.

Gold, unlike QCOM, does not have to announce anything. Know why? Because Gold is, full stop.

As to <<what was the greater loss? The burning of the library of alexandria? Or the theft of all her gold? Why?>>

... of course and without any question, the library lost was was greater, because the gold was not lost, and in fact is still around, somewhere. Know why? Yes you do ;0)

Chugs, J

P.s. I evaluated XBOX 360, went thumbs down on it. Preferring to upgrade PC when proper time and maintain flexibility.

Shades, if you or anybody you love receives GOLD this Christmas, I'll gladly pay the postage to have the worthless element sent to my planet. In my corner of the galaxy (i.e. the SOLAR SYSTEM), I can easily exchange it for this stuff called OIL to heat my home (via a prior exchange with this funny paper stuff that's printed like crazy in order to enable all to buy the same diminishing quantity of goods which are actually manufactured -- see, my corner of the galaxy is very crazy too!!). Sorry for your parallel universe quirk where gold is worthless as money. Best to just pass it on to me <g>. Perhaps I'll soon pass you billions or trillions of our "dollars" which we have here. They are nearly everywhere and soon wheelbarrows will be in very short supply (also known as a "wallets").
