Value
What is “value?” My dictionary has 13 definitions, but I’ll take the first one: “A fair or proper equivalent in money, commodities, etc., especially for something sold or exchanged.” Gold and silver...
Sent to me by a friend...
Yes I can write, but the following just needs to be forwarded. I have a list of about 80 I send stuff such as this daily. If you’re a customer of Colorado Gold, I’d be glad to add your name to the...
Sadly Serious by Newt Gingrich
"A smart friend of mine who is a moderate liberal asked why I was not recognizing Joe Biden’s victory. The friend made the case that Biden had gotten more votes, and historically we recognize the person with the...
It Didn't Happen All at Once
What didn’t happen all at once? Actually, the same thing happened and still happens all around the world, but not all at once. What? The decline and eventual going to absolute zero, of the value of...
IRA?
My toll-free number is a thing of the past. After dealing with two phone companies, I discover that my toll-free number doesn’t belong to me but to a company called Lumen, which is impossible to deal with, so in the...
Antique or New?
According to a dictionary, “Antique,” is something “old,” or “out of date,” among other definitions. I live in an 1887 brick ‘Queen Anne’ home of 3400 square feet, and love...
On Vacation
Sorry, no column this week or maybe longer. Going South to get warm. Hope the 20th doesn’t result in mass violence. The next four years will not be pleasant for conservatives and lovers of freedom. ...
It's OVER
I used to say, “I love Trump,” but I now change that to say, “I love what Trump did.” After Wednesday, January 6th, and a long article I just read and will forward to anyone who wants to read...
Value-Price
As I write this on January 3rd, I don’t think it’s an outrageous prediction, to say that the Biden administration will attempt to reverse all the things that Trump did. He will resume the Obama type of spending,...
Old Faithful
I don’t mean a geyser in Yellowstone, by the expression “Old Faithful.“ That’s a common term used to describe something which is loved or liked, always seems to be reliable, loving, or...

Just to Remind You
Author is unknown. I’m still trying to understand what 80 million voters disliked about President Trump so much that they decided to cast their votes for a man who served forty-seven years in government and has...
Stocks Anyone?
I have never owned a single share of stock, and don’t intend to. This column is not intended to get you to buy or sell stocks. What you do with your money is your choice, not mine. I know many have made a...
Miscellaneous
(Pearl harbor Day. Fly your flag) I Just read a fascinating book titled, “With Wings Like Eagles.” It’s about the Battle of Britain in 1940. Excellent book if you’re into WW II. The...
China Again
It’s so obvious, at least to me, that China is on the skids economically, and this is brought out by the current edition of “The Epoch Times,” which is an excellent weekly paper. As I have said in past...
What's it Worth?
It’s a real Picasso! Or it’s a real something or other, if you go to yard sales, and we all seem unable to resist them. In extremely rare occasions, (if you watch Antiques Roadshow), someone will pay a couple of...
BLM & Antifa are destroying America
Black Lives Matter was founded by, and is controlled by communists, and both BLM and Antifa have been quoted as saying that the object is to, ‘Bring down America.’ The process began when Donald Trump announced...
It's Over
It’s not only over, but ‘All of Trumps’ horses and all of Trumps’ men, can’t put it back together again.’ All the nonsense prevailing on the internet is so silly as to be laughable. ...
Save America
Do we need ‘saving?’ I think so. Our national debt, as I write this on Sunday, 10/25, is $127 trillion, $132 billion and change. Soon, the debt will equal the GDP, and then we could be economic...
"Everything Keeps Going Up!"
That’s a direct quote from a friend of mine, after she bought a “Big Mac” from McDonalds last week. I have no idea how much a Big Mac costs, either then or now, but I do remember being able to buy a gallon...
