There are a few which people make, will make, or think of making. (1) Switch gold for silver. It makes no sense, because you’ll sell the gold at the ’bid’ price, and have to ship it. Then, you buy the silver at ’ask’ price, and pay a commission and shipping also. That may make […]
The new national debt machine on the web site, indicates that the US government is going into debt by a million dollars every 45 seconds. As a client of mine says, “I can hold my breath long enough for the government to run up a million in debt.” The two year fed note rate is […]
The Dictionary says that being paranoid is characterized by “extreme suspiciousness.” Well then, if a person is not ’extremely suspicious,’ I suppose he isn’t paranoid? I say that if a person is not at least a bit paranoid today, he is not thinking too clearly or not at all! I know there are degrees […]
Millions of jobs have gone overseas. Thousands of factories are rusting away, bereft of machinery, or arsoned. America is in dire straits. Real estate foreclosures by the millions, millions of credit cards maxed out, and millions of bankruptcies. Who is responsible for all of this? Especially the lost jobs. Did the millions of ex-workers […]
July is the hottest month of the year, so this will be totally different, and may be of help during these hot days. On the 4th of July, I was in Silverton, and ran across a guy filling his radiator from a fast running creek with an empty Coke can. I stopped to ask […]
July 4th had everyone playing patriotic songs. The Sunday before, June 29th, had the Mormon Tabernacle Choir doing a wonderful program of patriotic songs which made chills run up and down my spine. Sunday, July 6th, had my church doing a patriotic sermon and song fest, beginning with a flag salute. It was grand! […]
July 4th and Thanksgiving, are my two favorite holidays, both of which celebrate our heritage. Unfortunately, America is on the skids, and I don’t know how to stop its fall. Example: The Famous New York Empire State Building has just been bought by Arabs for $900 million. The Chinese have over a trillion US […]
This is such a simple subject, but perhaps the most widely mistaken. Ask anyone what inflation is, and they say, “Prices going up.” Ask them why prices are going up, and the answers are invariably an assortment of answers which have absolutely nothing to do with the cause. The answer is as the dictionary […]
This will be brief, because by now you all know the good news. The Supremes (5-4) decided that the Second Amendment Lives! Bush, at least has done a couple of good things, and that is appoint two judges to the nation’s highest court. Without the Bush appointments, the Second Amendment may have died. Does […]
We’re fighting terrorism, afraid of terrorism, and being protected from terrorism. Isn’t it grand? The good old government, in all its powers, bureaucracies, and employees, is protecting us from terrorism and those nasty creeps who would blow us to bits, because they’re jealous of our prosperity and happiness. How wonderful! Except we’re not prosperous, […]
