was watching a video..superior..(spielberg probably would be jealous of the film maker..) and then after it was finished CNBC happened to flip on..and guess what they said tomorrow they would cover the hog market.. I immediately thought of Richard and said..why don't they do a segment on gold..with Placer's and ABX's latest moves..I guess we have to wait for them to do the after the fact thing..bring out old news? thank you so much bobby o/t bought a vaporizer today for one of my animals who is sick..bought it at CVS..9.95 a Duracraft one..what a joke..when I opened the box I didn't find any instructions..I called the help number and had to wait eight minutes..finally a human got on the phone..I told him there was no manual and I couldn't figure out what to do..he said wasn't the manual in machine..I said really..I said I wasnt dumb but I couldn't figure out how to open the machine..all plastic practically..how was I expected to get to the manual if I first had to open up the machine..he said he told the company that they should have put it in the box and not in the machine..he told me to hold on to the machine tightly and twist and pull up..because it was childproof.(I guess I was supposed to be a mindreader.well I refrained from asking him if the company was afraid the children might read the manual and that is why they stuck it in the machine..anyways I struggled for five minutes to open the thing to feel it with water..(I guess I should have been a weighlifter) I am not considered weak..I couldn't get it opened..so I went back to CVS..the very strong store manager struggled to open it after a few minutes ..He mentioned that CVS probably buys 2 million items from that company..If they buy two million items how in the world can small stores compete..Also in such an impersonal world..how can the consumer not be driven crazy with the stupidity of a lot of corporations.. Bobby (maybe enough pig farmers have gone under so the market can now come back :-) )(have enough gold producers and oil producers gone under yet?
