    We had a decent day with Aurcana. Watch out though. Might just be the naked shorts covering in preparation for flinging more shorts (naked) at the market. Let’s see how long the price lasts over $1.00. The algos and shortsters can not stand but one side of the trade at a time…..theirs. Thanks Federal Government for looking after the peasants (people)…not. Might as well write your local humane shelter. At least the animals can use the paper in their cages.

      Man, I hope that it doesn’t come to that!

      Thanks for the thoughts, David.

    I don’t want to think of what will happen; like another listener had mentioned that Fort Knox which has not been audited since The Korean War in 1952 is just a shell game. Watch closely as I move the pea around, is it #1, or #2, or maybe #3, but maybe it left a long time ago. I can’t see a leave it to Beaver optimism here. The pea is most likely gone but like Jeff Deist say’s they (The American Public) don’t see or want to see how it matters.

    Brad Meltzer’s program decoded interviewed people who had lived next to Fort Knox all their lives and worked there; they and there relatives all said, it’s gone, I sincerely hope they are wrong but I wouldn’t place a bet on it being there.

      IRISH GOT ALL THE GOLD OUT LAST YEAR……DIDN’T YOU READ THE NOTE…..

        Aug 28, 2012 28:08 PM

        IRISH, had them move the gold behind “The Blarney Stone” that means you have to pucker-up crawl through a hole on your back for 1 mile, and fight the leprechauns, I think it will be easier to just keep the entitlement programs alive, don’t make lit hard for the government minions.

          DICK…..You left out the pixie’s,..elves,..snotty toads,..drunk spiders,….& the fiery troll’s, & me with my super duper water pistol.

          Okay Dick,

          But what happens when the music stops?

          Big Al

            Aug 28, 2012 28:05 PM

            AL ..its loaded with the black stuff, in case i get thirsty……while standing guard.

            Aug 28, 2012 28:15 PM

            Yes when the music stops, if there is anyone who can give us a clear picture as to where the gold is going (China) and if The US of A still has substantial reserves that would be in my mind James Turk. He certainly knows where the bullion trail leads to out of America because he has to buy substantial amounts of bullion for Gold money.com and for him this is something I’m sure he probably knows more about and has for a long time then it would be comfortable to divulge. It will be like watching a slow motion train wreck after the music stops.

        Aug 28, 2012 28:25 PM

        Yes JERRY…& i will only give it back when RON PAUL is PRESIDENT……So broadcast this message across AMERICA……….WAKE UP YOU DUMB YANKS …& vote in the only honest politician , who wants what’s best for the U.S. & its people……or kiss goodbye to the shiny stuff…………………….

          Aug 28, 2012 28:46 PM

          What a minute, Mr. Irish! Speak for your 50% not my 50%!

          HI AL……Sure glad somebody found it.

    Aug 28, 2012 28:25 PM

    Well it looks like the BC Securities Commission let loose a can of whoop-azz on AMY.V. Though I appreciate the caution that’s intended, I think it’s a little unfair to presume a 3 year price on Mg, particularly when we are running out of EEM in North America. I don’t know…6.5cent/share is so cheap, it might be worth buying now, but I feel for those who are already in it. Electrolytic mang is going to increase in demand over the years, so it’s still a play to watch. It will be interesting to hear Larry’s thoughts. Arizona really loses big-time too. No one wins. Thanks BCSC.

    At 5:27 EST the State of Iowa cast 6 votes for Romney and 22 votes for Ron Paul.
    Think about how the Iowa January caucus framed the perceptions votes for Romney of the remaining primary season. The RNS has seated an alternate Maine delegation which as I press cast only 14 of its votes for Romney. Chants of “Point of Order” were ignored.
    It is as if even when you show up you are not there. There will come a time when reality bites. In fable it is when the tortoise overtakes the hare.

      Aug 28, 2012 28:44 PM

      Yep, Dennis M.

      You thinking about writing in Dr. Paul? I still am!

      Big Al

      Aug 28, 2012 28:50 PM

      DENNIS……RON PAUL scares the s$£t out of them, They all know if he ever became president , he would expose them all for what they are….A BUNCH OF SELFISH SCUM.

        Aug 28, 2012 28:25 PM

        Amen, Mr. Irish!

        Big Al

        Aug 28, 2012 28:47 PM

        Irish…it is Ron Paul voters that scares the s$Lt out of them.
        People who work…are not on dumb down perscriptions…said no to the union job and satarted a small business. It is us and our gun racks that scares them. It is because of us they have to plan how they our going to make it to the airport when the feces collides with the rapidly rotating metal blades.

          Aug 29, 2012 29:42 AM

          You know Dennis M,

          Kathy and I are on a two day vacation and I swore that I would stay away from politics, but I can’t do that.

          I have pretty much decided that I have to vote my conscience and I am going to write in Ron Paul.

          I know I am going to piss some folks off, but I have pretty much come to the conclusion that most of the others are self-centered, egotistical, uncaring, you know whats!

          Big Al

      Aug 28, 2012 28:01 PM

      Well said Dennis.

      Here’s a piece I enjoyed in today’s paper:

    What constitution? Which robot to vote for? So tough.

    Aug 28, 2012 28:10 PM

    Big Al,
    The dollar LOSING its world reserve currency status will make A LOT OF AMERICANS relegated to poverty levels unseen in ANY time in our history. Frightening, sure. But, our government has brought us to this point and we, Americans, have contributed to this problem by our ignorance and inability to GRASP the problem…brutal – absolutely BRUTAL!
    Marc

      Aug 28, 2012 28:45 PM

      Yep, Marc, it is ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL!

      Big Al

    Aug 28, 2012 28:40 PM

    MARC…i agree…..the people could change this, but first they would have to turn off their televisions , that way they would wake up from the brainwashing they have endured for so many years, & start to see real life for a change, then they might see how bad things have got , & perhaps change things for the better.

      Aug 28, 2012 28:40 PM

      Irish,
      That would mean that the mind numbing Dancing with the Stars, and the Kardashians would not be so important to many in our Country. What a waste of brain cells! ARGG!!

        Marc 🙂

        Aug 29, 2012 29:39 AM

        Morning Jody D,

        I get so angry sometimes at the trash that spews from the tv that I am tempted to throw something at it. But then, I remember how much money I have invested and I remember my beloved football games and golf channel that I just leave the room and have a glass of red tranquilizer.

        Big Al

      Aug 28, 2012 28:53 PM

      Exactly. I was flippin through channels last nite. And I just PEAKED into a show called – “How I Met your Mother”. I was so disgusted with the dialogue and sheer stupidity of the characters – I just gagged! I lasted 30 secs and went back to my history channel. Really, really terrible crap on network TV….
      Marc

        Aug 28, 2012 28:08 PM

        Marc,
        I totally agree with you. About the only TV I watch anymore is the History Channel and the old movie channels. Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire! That was fun entertainment!! At least there was some talent involved. 😉
        Jody D

          Aug 29, 2012 29:50 AM

          What Jody D, are you saying that the crap that is coming out of Hollywood is talentless?

          Now common, how can you say that the Batman movies, the expendable movies, etc are not filled with talent?

          Big and Sarcastic Al

    HI JODY…How very true. It’s the same here in the UK….I call them the zombies…the living brain dead……….It’s so sad.

      Aug 28, 2012 28:24 PM

      Irish,
      We have our fair share of zombies here too! Yikes!
      I have actually talked to people at work who think the economy is getting more healthy, and that the current President has done a wonderful job. This is despite the fact that our hospital is laying off employees due to the $Millions we will lose this coming fiscal year from Medicaid reimbursement, Gas prices rising, food prices climbing, and true unemployment in double digits. Go figure!!
      Jody D

        Aug 29, 2012 29:51 AM

        Not hard to figure Jody D,

        It is called a lack of investigative thinking.

      Too many people are living on the dole and are to lazy to stop and think what is happening to them!

      Hey, Mr Irish, I am supposed to be on a two day vacation. What am I doing this for!

    Aug 28, 2012 28:15 PM

    Big Al,
    I watched Ron Paul’s speech in Tampa. No endorcement! Seems that the Republican party has completely rejected him. Do you think he will endorce someone? The presidential debates will be important to my decision, but at this moment in time I will be writing in RON PAUL.

    A well run war against Iran/Syria with victory by the Saudi/Gulf States/USA will keep the $ a reserve currency a bit longer.

      Aug 28, 2012 28:00 PM

      The “Will Israel Strike Iran Before US Elections” headline has been mainstream for about a month now. It seems like popular opinion is the public is resigned to the possibility (a type of tactic used by spinsters), so it could happen anytime.

      I don’t put much credence in sites like that, Ken. Should I?

      Big Al

    Aug 28, 2012 28:51 PM

    Everyone here seems to talk about writing in Ron Paul. I love the guy, but in my state, WA, the computer sorting and counting the votes just spits the write-ins into a bin to be looked at only in the case of a very close outcome and a recount. No human ever sees your vote, and even the computer doesn’t read your write-in. Has anyone considered voting for Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate for president? I think he is on the ballot in all 50 states, and he agrees with Paul on most issues. At least his votes get counted.

      Ken
      Aug 28, 2012 28:11 PM

      As I understand it, the way it works here in Colliefornia (as Ahnode calls it) is that if Ron Paul or anyone else is registered as an official write-in candidate the vote gets counted but if they are not the vote does not get counted.

      So someone needs to jump through the hoops to get him registered. I’m not sure if that involves collecting signatures. I believe in 2008 RP was registered but don’t know about this year.

      If RP is not a registered write-in I will definitely vote for Johnson. But if he is registered at this point I’m inclined to write him in.

      Aug 29, 2012 29:01 AM

      Hey Pixelbill,

      Where in Washington?

      You point about the write-in is well taken by the way.

        Hi Al. . . . I live in the middle of the deep forest on Bainbridge Island, Kitsap County, just down the Sound from you.

          Hi Pixelbill,

          Bainbridge is a really great place.

          I like the fact that the community does not allow franchises to locate there. Is that still the case?

    did you all hear that ron paul , and michelle bachman both are in revolt after the party [bonehead and mitt] voted by voice vote , to change rules, so no protest votes ,from the floor ,could be heard. in effect no minor candidates in future can really challenge the steering committe ,and have a floor fight, or challenge the vote stealling that went on in Maine etc, against ron paul or others. remember the delagate [ and popular vote] in iowa changed three times. is this a democracy or what ?????

    In my estimation, the sociopaths in control want a hot confrontation, and they would certainly get it with Bho, probably not with Mitten. Therefore, whatever is needed to get him back in there will do.
