    Silver eagles are buying and selling for a higher amount over spot than they have in my lifetime compared to other types.

    That's how I got a lot of mine. Worked retail in high school and pocketed all the silver turned in and exchanged them, company didn't mind. Took them to the coin shop and exchanged them for silver rounds back then.

    If silver keeps going up may have to sell some physical silver I own which isn't a lot. Read earlier a couple of places that sell physical silver have increased their minimum order to a couple hundre bucks. 1oz silver round was around $23 not long ago, now $30.

    Who knows. Several pics and videos of the aftermath of cars not where they started and on their side. The high school had all their buses parked side by side and it moved several and smashed them together. But school buses are a giant sail like 18 wheelers that get blown over in a windstorm.

    In college had a sony digital camera as part of my study. It took a 3.5" floppy disc to store pics on. Cutting edge. Reason most of my pics I've posted from that time are film pics that I either scanned or took a pic of with my cell phone. By the time you take a pic with a questionabgle cheap...

    Chaparrosa ranch in 1996. Middle of 100 year drought, even the lake on the TX/LA border was down to a ditch. Chaparrosa was shipping their cattle off left and right before they died.. Pic taken with cheap disposable camera I had in the truck. It rained 3 drops on me that day which was very usual.

    Learned a valuable lesson 30 years ago from my first landlord. Told me the guy at the appraisal district will have a much higher impact on your taxes than the people who set the tax rate. He was dead on. Appraisal district in TX keeps on file photos of all improvements on your land/property...

    Big difference in what I think they will do and what they probably should do. Trying to juggle a lot of things in the air at the same time hoping one doesn't fall on the floor and then the party is over.

    Mexicans pushed out by white people moving in. Of course here it's blacks but we call that a win. Polilticians call it a win as well cause of the tax base. Of course no white moved into a black area. They get up and move out entirely. Another parish, county, state, whatever it takes.

    Small things we could cover. But azaleas take up a large part of the property. 5 different varieties/colors in large groups each probably 20' deep by 50' each and 12' tall. Hopefully this is it, 24F tonight and forecast of 80 by Tuesday. Pick one and stick to it for more than a day.
