Pinky's Tailing Box...a weekly Wednesday feature of At a Bottom now for gold...

The Dupes of Hazzard County

R-I-N-G! R-I-N-G! RING! RING!

Goldtrain: Enos, you dipstick, answer the phone--you know the ringing hurts Old Blue's ears...oh I'll get it...
...Hello, constable's office...this is Sheriff AZCO P. Goldtrain...

Boss POG: I know who you are nitwit! Now listen up...them Duped boys got something I'm a wantin' and I aim to get it.

Goldtrain: And what might that be?

Boss POG: The Robert e-gold Lee. The fastest car in Hazzard County. It'll win the next Daytona. Now here's my plan...

Goldtrain: ...Woah boy--I'm going to get me them Duped boys now, ke, ke ,ke.

Uncle Jesse: Dizzy May, have you seen BGO and Dupe?--them boys are scarce as a 1 oz silver eagle.

Dizzy May: Why no Uncle Jesse--if they stop by the Gold'sdead saloon during my shift I'll send 'em back over. See ya'll later Uncle Jesse.

At the Gold'sdead:

Dupe: My my, Cooter, I gotta say that tune up you gave the e-gold Lee shore was somethin'. But it does still sputter once in a while.

Cooter: Well, didn't i tell y'all not to buy that cheap Starvin' Marvin gas?

Dupe: But oils and natural resource stocks are as depressed as they'll ever be right now. And anyways, don't you own 25,000 shares of Dayton Mining yourself?

Cooter: Yeah, and I'm as depressed as I'll ever be too right now.

Boss POG: Well, if it isn't the Duped Boys. Bartender--drinks for the boys here. Now do I have a deal for you...I'll give you controling interest in this here goldmine in exchange for the Robert e-gold Lee--fair swap.

Duped: A bonafide goldmine!

BGO: Uncle Jesse will be proud of us...you got yourself a deal!

BGO: Sorry we're late Uncle Jesse. We had to hitch a ride over.

Uncle Jesse: Hitch a ride? You boys ain't running bootleg moonshine again and got yer car impounded?

Dupe: No Sir. Just the Krugerrands.

Uncle Jesse: You ain't been poachin'on the back 40 and got yer car impounded?

BGO: No Sir. Just grimly pounded by the silver market.

Uncle Jesse: Where's the e-gold Lee?

BGO: Why, we done traded it to Boss POG for a goldmine. When we sell all that ore, we'll be able to set ourselves up with a whole slew of e-gold Lees.

Uncle Jesse: What Goldmine?!!!

Dupe: The Royal Oak Mine gold mine, Sir.

Uncle Jesse: Don't you pea brains know falling gold prices, hedging by most all of the big producers through forward selling, heavy shorting and the possibility of huge Central Bank, Swiss bank, and IMF gold sales have made the gold mining industry virtually unprofitable?

Duped: Well, yes Sir, but you being a farmer and all--we's just trying to follow your example. All you got is hogs.

Uncle Jesse: There's no shucking and jiving your way out of this one boys. My porkfolio is my business. See that hog pen over there? Get to work.

BGO: How far down do we have to shovel this organic fertilizer to get to the bottom of that pen?

Uncle Jesse: Limit down.
