"Extra, Extra... Read All About It!"

Postby beauanderos » Wed Oct 13, 2010 9:58 pm

In the early days of newspapers, when newspapers were the primary method of delivering the news, when something big happened, the publisher would not only publish the normal daily paper, but would also publish an Extra. The newspapers were sold on the street, often by newsboys, who had a stack of papers and would sell them to walkers-by. When an Extra came out, they would chant "Extra! Extra! read all about it" to call attention to the fact that something big had happened, and an Extra paper had been published. Well, we aren't going to see the media publicizing these events, but there's an international currency war underway right now (is THIS WW#3?) and the victims are fiat currencies everywhere... and the victors shall be those who hold Silver and Gold. ImageSilver is up to $24.35 and Gold $1378.Image
How high can they go? How low can the dollar go? Got Silver? Got Gold?

Dude,

Take it easy on the smiley cartoons. Really, they are getting pretty gross.

Funny ,but I'm afraid of where this is going.
If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

Yes, that did show questionable taste. The dollar is in the toilet should suffice. Better?
