Gold and silver up in the futures, gold only a little. Still extremely early was just interested if there was going to be any recovery at all in the near future.

Only one of the shops in my industry are unionized and they get tons of oversite from OSHA and others. The one that is unionized gets different benefits, not really more and not more pay for being unionized. When I worked in San Antonio they had a shop in northeast MS that could ship via the...

Some trade unions will help train and find a job if you lose yours. Like if you get laid off they might can find you one in another local whatever. Not that I am in any way a fan of unions. I think those types are a minority and most likely not people who work on video games. Nobody is going to...

They have umpteen actual parades. Each crew has one. The big ones are on or near Mardi Gras. The smaller ones for smaller towns that are family oriented are always earlier. We sure don't get Mardi Gras off here unlike Louisiana does. Not mine. My sister lives adjacent to Baton Rouge in a parish...

The Greg Biffle prelimary crash report came out. NASCAR driver with private jet that crashed killing all on board. It was an illegal flight. The person that identified as the pilot did not have a waiver to fly without a co pilot. One other pilots did not have a type rating for that aircraft or...

Same here Saturday. Woke up to the sound of the wind blowing. 35-40mph. The forecast was way off for the day but tonight it's dropping down about like predicted. Can't imagine going to hustle for beads with windchill in the single digits. Imagine reaching to pickup a bead or doubloon and...

Haven't been in almost 20 years. Not a lot, but the few times I went that song was pretty popular. No idea why, totally non minority place.

I read some time ago the woman on there that was the sister of Redd Foxxs wife. Esther (LaWanda Page) was a big comedian and at one time a fire dancer. Reading the story she was terrible at first but Redd Foxx wanted her. She couldn't do a script at all and needed to adlib so that's what she did.

They play that song a lot in strip clubs. No idea why.

Takes all kinds. Forecast tonight where my sister lives in LA is single digits windchill, so what are you going to do when it's below average cold? Have your mardi gras parade tonioght obviously. Family type parade she's on the crew of. I went to New Orleans Mardi Gras once in college and it was...

Kind of like fishing. By the time you hear it's a good time to go it means you should have been there yesterday.

Crazy part is silver had a 25% hit and is only back to where it was about 3 weeks ago. Lot of people didn't want to be left holding the bag at the top. Guess we'll see. Did learn that the Chinese market price of silver includes their tax/vat or whatever it is.

Friend from high school went into the navy. I didn't know whaty he did being enlisted. I know whern he got out he griped about how "touch" it was all the time. Finally his dad had enough and laid into him. His dad was a submariner during Vietnam and was drafted. My friend accorrding to his dad...

When CME first upped the margin reqeuirements some time ago a number of people were saying it was because "someone" such as a big bank were in too deep shorting and needed the help. I don't know but recently until today was still seeing people talking about digging up junk silver and sterling...

Metals and a lot of stuff down today. Silver down to $93, gold at $4,999.
