  1. If they tell you you won the lottery, don't go in to pick up the prize. Sometimes that's just a trap to catch you on outstanding warrants.
  2. My first bought silver was high (about 36) but almost all of it since has been mid-20s. Complicated by selling a chunk years ago, rebuying it, selling again yadda yadda. All I know is I never sold it for less than I paid, though of course, breaking even after a couple of years is selling at a loss. The gold was probably 1600 average, with buys in the 1400 to 1800 range. $1600 is my "mental" gold price. Kinda doubt we'll ever see that again. Had a laugh this weekend at an art show, some of my best sellers were small sketches I knocked out maybe a year ago planning to use their sale to get an ounce of gold at maybe $2000. I got a heap more drawin to do.
  3. Non-Catholic here, but perhaps I earned an indulgence by haunting their Youth group as a gangly wee pup, my eyes on a Polish girl with a space between her teeth. Even hung around after that failed to launch, playing guitar in the Folk Mass (when in doubt strum A-minor) and sorta kinda snagging a different girlfriend except she seemed distant after walking in a room where I was giving a totally Platonic foot massage to a third young lady of the flock. And no, I have no designs on the Papacy. I have found my lane, to be a club-swinging Bishop Odo, perhaps modified for cultural reasons to a Buford Pusser whoopin stick.
  4. The above all sounds bad in English, but it'll be classier when they put it back into Latin.
  5. Don't underestimate him. On dry land he can charge as fast as a horse for short distances.
  6. You have a back-up New Zealand wife? Have they met?
  7. They could, and did. That's why we're not speaking Chimp now.
  8. The only Subway I like is a local one that let me, a non-customer, take a shit in their bathroom one night when I had explosive diarrhea. Bought a cookie on the way out, it was the classy thing to do.
  9. I would eat a whole bucket of that, while wearing a fez and banging on cymbals.
  10. You have the ability to see inside my cousin's wife's brain.
  11. I can't look at a flat head shovel without thinking about the wet concrete floor in a hot dog factory.
  12. I got my jab the day a molester bought the pizza parlor And I walked across the flat earth to the rim But before I could haggle with my Morgan dollars The Deep State swooped in, ate my pie, and disappeared him!
  13. Most British speak gibberish. Indians are old-school. eg My Brahmin friend from Kenya schooling the English in the use of "shan't."
  14. Great idea to have a kill switch in our own equipment. Nobody would ever figure out how to use that against us.
  15. At least 1/3 of my teachers in grades 7-12 disrupted learning. Luckily I was able to tune them out with library books.
  16. It'll either be the right choice, or the wrong one. Me personally I think silver will catch back up some. But I thought that back when gold was 2,000.
  17. I think of shiny metal like a spare tire on a car. It doesn't make the car go faster or farther, but once in a blue moon it's nice to have a spare. Don't weep too much over having silver instead of gold. Who knows what could happen.
  18. I am not a sma-art man.
  19. You could skip too.
  20. Welp fellers, I reckon I had a golden time being off the meds with no visible cancer growth, because today's scan showed the little bastard awake and mischievous. It's mainly one lump, and we're talking measurements in millimeters not grocery produce, but it means before too long I'll be back on the poison. I forget what the name of this one is. I got doctors paid to remember that shit. On the other hand, I am damned good looking with Swiss clockwork innards, low blood pressure, highly oxygenated, at least in my fingertip, they never check anywhere else.
  21. (4/4, in G) Hopped on the plane and I went to France Never any problem with my rubber pants Had a glass of wine and I ate some snails Cobblestones clean, never left a trail Bonjour Madame do you feel the groove My colostomy bag fell off at the Louvre CHORUS My colostomy bag fell off at the Louvre My colostomy bag fell off at the Louvre Venus de Milo had to get up and move My colostomy bag fell off at the Louvre [French nee-naw sirens in background]
  22. Just Goofin Around: Results of Mrs. Canecutter's Chemistry lab where she was teaching the kids about electroplating metals. Her plan was to have the students plate their own pocket change with copper. I said "they're Gen-Z they probably don't have pockets much less pocket change. I doubt they even know what coins are." Apparently I was completely wrong, and the whole class would have drowned trying to escape Tenochtitlán, their pockets full of loot. I was like "You told em to bring that change." She was all "Nunt uh. They just had it." I don't know what to think.
  23. Maybe it's 3,200 pesos. Betcha didn't think of that.
  24. Bet it won't come to that.
