  1. With respect to my previous posts regarding Treasuries, from AEP via The Telegraph: https://gata.org/node/22852
  2. 1000 year middle east strife is just a transient market variable.
  3. https://www.kitco.com/news/2023-10-06/Jefferies-calls-Bitcoin-a-critical-hedge-against-inflation-recommends-10-allocation-for-pension-funds.html
  4. Another good series for the Texas D. Hope Texas runs stright now.
  5. Texas D looked great on that last series
  6. Texas will settle down and assert dominance.
  7. Why do folks say that OU still sucks? That implies that OU is capable of changing its status. It confuses and disturbs me.
  8. I watched the episode with the Zoo game yesterday. I would like to amend my earlier response as follows:
  9. I watched the first episode of The Devil's Plan the other day. I enjoyed it. It's another Korean reality gameshow in the mode of Physical 100, but this show emphasizes problem solving instead of brawn. 12 contestants trying to win a starting prize of 500 million won (about $371,000). The prize could increase depending upon the contestants' ability to finish challenges/puzzles.
  10. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/behind-the-scenes-of-a-ufo-whistleblower-s-odd-visit-to-capitol-hill/ar-AA1hKiMB Start after the 7 minute mark if you want to skip the very long intro. If you watch it, you get a better sense of who Grusch is and what motivates him.

  12. You folk obviously don't know much about Thomas Massie or his history with Trump. https://rollcall.com/2020/03/27/who-is-thomas-massie-the-house-member-from-kentucky-trump-wants-thrown-out-of-the-gop/
  13. FWIW: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/prediction-market-faq#Β§whats-the-current-status-of-prediction-markets I found the above while trying to figure out if the Zeitgeist prediction market was kosher for US residents (which I'm still not sure about).
  14. A lot of people judge a President by how the economy fared during their tenure even though Presidents have very little to do with it. Carter's term coincided with the fallout from Bretton Woods. It was an economic situation decades in the making. The great economic malaise sucked ass and few peeps were happy living through it. On foreign policy - where Presidents actually have influence - Carter tried to liberalize the USA's influence (emphasizing human rights and such) and made some progress until the Iranian hostage crisis near the end of his term. That was his undoing as Reagan talked tough and Iran actually feared him. Reagan was the beneficiary of the Volker shock which ended the inflation and economic malaise that dominated the 70s. He was also really good at delivering speeches. He was charismatic and life was good while he presided. The wall also came down shortly after his tenure in part due to the deficit spending on the military that the Soviets couldn't match. They both did some good things, but the legacy of their actual accomplishments is largely overshadowed by the economic conditions that prevailed during their tenures. Conditions that were created/governed by monetary policy (ie. the Federal Reserve) more than their fiscal policies.
