  1. Although I don't recall that website nor the picture of that girl. She isn't jailbait anyhow I don't think. But anyhow, it is possible I would say something like that if I were drunk and bored. But that was 2009 and I haven't used that fogger00@hotmail account in a long time. Actually I haven't used the andrewbb1@yahoo.com account in about as long. Sorry, I haven't updated my online profile in a few years.

  2. Take a look at silver. Is that fear, manipulation or advertising?

  3. For rules on how to trade that market see my gold thread:
    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=207589

    For the risk averse and to calculate margin/investment, assume a floor of $0 gold/silver. For those willing to accept some risk and understanding of monetary science, assume a floor of at least $7/$700.

  4. That's along the right way of thinking, but Promise Language solves that problem.

    All transactions are comprised of promises to deliver value. Only living beings can make promises.

  5. There is only one store of value, and that's based on perception mostly moreso than as that store of value.

  6. Go to a swap meet and exchange a handbag for a purse. Was that a transaction? Was there value delivered?

    "store of value" = "sucking up to authority" (usually at gunpoint)

  7. "store" = "establishment selling goods or services"

    "store of value" = "selling bullshit"

  8. I have a silo of wheat. That's value. I have a gold coin. That's value. WTF do I need a piece of paper for to tell me I am allowed to exchange that coin for the silo?

    Grow up people. When will the population stop worshiping boobie and penis shaped buildings?

  9. Thanks. Trying to. Just wandering around Lakeland, Florida. I usually go to Hooter's for a couple beers, then walk down to the bowling alley. They have a good sound system there. Karaoke is sometimes funny. Interesting mix of people here. Seems more than a few are decent people. Last night I met a couple of Masons, an old school catholic girl, a couple of lesbians, a very attractive girl just out to have fun with her friends (unfortunately she was married), then a fight broke out nearby. Nothing much occurred though. Music was decent.
