I ’ll always remember where I was, as will you. My friend Paul called me and asked me if I were watching TV. I wasn’t, but turned it on immediately. I won’t soon forget, and neither will any of you. It was shocking, appalling, disgusting, and revolting. But it was perhaps one of the biggest […]
The free coinage or silver and gold had been adopted in 1792. This meant that anyone could take gold or silver to the mint, and have it coined. A silver dollar would have a dollar’s worth of silver, and the much smaller gold coin would have a dollar’s worth of gold in it. Gold’s price […]
I ’m just flooded with news about just how bad the economy is, and am continually wondering how it will all end. Examples are not difficult to find. 32.6% of new mortgages and home-equity loans in 2005 were interest only. 43% of first-time home buyers in 2005 put no money down. 15.2% of all 2005 […]
I ’m back in high school again with a book report. Finished Pat Buchan’s book “STATE OF EMERGENCY,” and highly recommend it. As usual, well written, naturally with a bit of Catholicism thrown in, which doesn’t detract from it one bit. The stats on the numbers of illegals are frightening. More illegals are here now […]
I haven’t done anything wrong, so why should I worry about having my phone tapped? I’m no terrorist, so why should I worry about America becoming a virtual copy of every other totalitarian state’s infancy? I’ll tell you why. The previous sentence tells it all. Not guilty? “Well we’ll pass more laws till you are […]
I am working feverishly on a piece about “The Crime of ’73,” but it isn’t finished yet. That’s 1873, not 1973. So We must continue examining the frightening symptoms we now see, and what they can result in, probably in the not too distant future. Picture a 42 year old man, who has worked faithfully […]
I love America! We are the absolute greatest. We’re smart, handsome, inventive, and can do anything. But just look at the mess we’re in, thanks to a President who seems to have an IQ of room temperature, and the D.C. Gang who does his and their own wills, which are killing us. Republicans, throughout our […]
Ever watch the commercials for the prescription drugs on TV? After telling everyone how wonderful they are and the models telling everyone how their hot flashes are a thing of the past, they lost 80 pounds, sleep well, have no more indigestion, can get it up regularly, see well, think well, or solved a whole […]
There’s no question about it. When you call your stockbroker or metals dealer, you are placing a lot of trust in him or her, as the case may be. Especially the precious metals dealer. There are a lot of crum-bums in every business, and gold and silver are no exception. I wouldn’t sell a numismatic […]
If you have a pain in your chest, you just might be going to, or actually having a heart attack, and especially if the pain lingers. Far too many people ignore it and get into serious trouble, and if they had gone to the ER, they might have saved their life or at least their […]
