Tom, Probably have a gun collection, my sweet patootie. I have a collection worth approximately $250,000, though the majority are not shooters, they're lookers. Yes, I am a gun nut, but I excuse this excess of purchasing by an investment rationalization. If the market goes up, folks want pretty things and I have a lot of beautiful commemoratives produced in limited supply. And if the country goes to hell in a handbasket, they all could be fired, so I can supply, at a very high price in kruggerrands, home security for those who were silly enough to believe that they were protected under the law. A win-win investment. <G> MB
