Just some random thoughts today

I’m not exactly sure I would put this on a dachshund since my Rot likes to eat hot dogs and he would think that this is one big dog to take a bite out of.

Classic Hot Dog Costume for Your Dachshund

Weiner Dog Costume (Photo: ohmydogsupplies.com)
I’ve seen other dogs wearing the bun, but it just doesn’t look right.  Usually when other dogs sport the bun, their legs are too long or the bun is too large making the dog look like an out of place hot dog.

I’ve gotta admit that John Tyner has a big pair.  A really big pair.  I’m sure that would clearly show his junk if he went through the millimeter full body scanner.  I don’t know why he didn’t want to be patted down, but it is what it is.  I know that I wouldn’t do that.

Folks radiation is bad for you.  Why would you want a full dose of that shit going through your body?  I don’t even like my Dentist to take x-rays cause it’s going to fry my brain.  Now if my dentist gave my a lead shield around my head like they put on chest, maybe I would get x-ray.

But you can’t do that walking through a full body scanner cause that would defeat the purpose of  it.   Now if they just protect the borders instead of forcing sheeple from going though those things, maybe we would be a lot safer.

Anyway, here’s the video.  It’s mostly audio since he has his phone recording video but it’s just shooting empty space.

Gregory Isaacs Dies at 59

Gregory Isaacs lost his battle to cancer today in London.  He was 59.

I’m sorry, I was never a real big fan of Isaacs and the only song that I considered worth while listening to was Night Nurse.

But to some, GregoryIsaacs will be a pillar missed in the Reggae community.  Gregory Isaacs, dead at 59, RIP.

NPR Fires Juan Williams!

I can sum up NPR’s firing of Juan Williams in two words:

Who Cares?

That was my polite summary.  What I really meant was:

Who gives a f*ck?

I feel bad that Mr. Williams lost a job and source of income, but it is about time that those fscks on Fox News — stating opinion as facts — got what was due.

Just state the facts and stop lying to the People.

Prop 19 – Legalize It

November 2 is just a few weeks away and the pot dispensaries are push more than dope. That is with a foothold in the door, they have nothing to loose if Prop 19 fails and everything to gain if it passes.

I no longer have to go to my doctor to ask him for script to get high because I have chronic back pain. The Advil doesn’t seem to work anymore and forget surgery.

So you doppy voters, legalize it for me.

Truly I don’t know if I can wait any longer than next year to play Diablo 3 — and I hope Q3 2011 prediction is wrong — but my guess is that it will be in 2012 before the next version of Diablo sees any light.

2012, the end of the world, end of the Mayan Calendar, may just be the start of the game for Diablo.  I can wait for the end but it is becoming difficult to wait for III and most likely Diablo 3′s  release date is still undecided.

What’s up with silver?

Gold has been in the news for quite awhile now with it skyrocketing upwards to who knows where.  My prediction of $1000/oz was off by 30% but the real story winner is apparently silver.

The precious metal over the past year has increase from about $15 to $23 per oz.  This is about 50 percent gain and I’m sure it will continue to go up if both gold and silver act as money.  But you may want to consider

that gold and silver are historically stable investments.  Even in times of economic crisis like the Great Depression, precious metals retain their value.  This is especially attractive to an investor in the current economic climate. — wbay

The past week gold and to a lesser extent silver have simmered down a bit.  Does this mean that the value will go up for ever?  Of course not, prices will fluctuate over time, but during a currency crisis and Governments are debasing the value of their dollar, the odds are that prices will climb.

Gerald Celente from Trends Research has been advocating $2000/oz gold in the near future:

On the upside, should gold move smartly passed the $1350 level and settle above it over the next two days, it will signal strength.

If silver maintains a historic 50 to 1 ratio with gold, surly silver will increase to $40 if gold pushes the $2000 mark if Celente is correct.  But who knows if Celente is correct or if the Great Great Depression will continue for years to come.

For me, I continue to buy on dips and unfortunately my $115 GLD covered calls forced me out of the ETF many months ago and I didn’t get a chance to get back in.  But I feel safer with gold in my pocket and I’m afraid that silver is too bulky to carry around even though it may continue upward.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported today:

The California state Supreme Court will rule Tuesday on a challenge to Proposition 8, the ballot measure that reinstated California’s ban on same-sex marriage.

I predicted back in November:

that Proposition 8 will be overturned as unconstitutional by the same courts that ruled in favor of gay marriage in the first place.

California courts are known to overturn liberal bills and amendments such as Prop. 8 even though the people have passed the new law in general elections.

I’m fairly certain that my prediction will come true and all people will have the same protection regardless of race, religion or sexual preference.

Gold Off Recent High

Gold has been dropping like a “gold brick” in the past week and is retracting from a recent high of $1000 per ounce.  This perhaps is a good buying opportunity before it shoots up again.

The only problem is that gold is scarce but I keep calling all the local dealers to see if someone is selling.  Usually on dips, the dips sell and the smart people buy.  Hopefully a few dips will sell their gold tomorrow.

One dealer just got in a 1000 oz. bar of silver.  It was hard to believe that this silver brick was nearly 63 lbs.  He wanted about 14k for it.  Now if it was gold and I had a spare $939,000, I would have bought it.

My prediction that gold would hit $1,000 per ounce by the end of March came a little early when gold closed today at $1,001.80.

It took nearly 6 months after the 2008 financial panic that gold is finally is starting to glitter.  I was surprised that the price was held so low since the demand for the precious metal is so high.

I still find it hard to purchase gold sovergns, eagles or any other types of coins and must result to carrying large sums of money in the chance the I can find any dealer in town that has a supply I can buy.

How high will go is anyone’s guess. But with this unrelentless printing of fiat money, it will only go higher.  My guess is that once Congress decides on another trillion dollar deficit 2009 budget — which is 6 months late — gold is going way up.

Congress needs to go on a diet to reduce deficit spending.  Perhaps they should drink lean one shakes like Sarah Palin did to drop 4 dress sizes.

Just imagine if our deficit was only 1/4 the size of what it currently is, we could go on a shopping spree to rebuild this country and get off oil dependence once and for all.

Yes, Congress needs to go on a diet, and lean one may be our only hope.

I predict that gold will hit $1000 mark by the end of March 2009.  I’m so confident that the dollar is dying with all this deficit and reckless spending by our Government, that Gold may be our last resort to preserving our wealth.

There may be some resistence to pass the $1000 mark, but 2T in bailout money — that does nothing to solve the bankrupt banking system — will serve nothing more as a catalyst for higher prices.

Olympic Gold Medal swimmer Michael Phelps hit the news today or should I say, the news caught him in a picture taking a hit from a bong.  I don’t want to sound prudent — because in every right I’m just as bad as Michael Phelps — but what he did was wrong.

I’m not going to argue that Marijuana has it’s qualities and perhaps is the “wonder drugs” that God or this planet freely gives to us to cure a wide range of aliments from Glaucoma to Alzheimers; I’m not going to argue that Hemp probably is the most resilient textile product and endless renewable energy resource; but, what I’m going to argue is that because Governments know these facts, they keep the plant illegal.

Thus, the fact that Marijuana is illegal, will drive the market to criminal organizations that trade in the product.  This highly corrupt and competitive market leads to crime and ultimately murder of both innocent and guilty parties.

Even though the argument is often used that Marijuana is a harmless drug, to deliver the product to the end user came with a hefty price attached and legalized Marijuana is the the only solution to endless crime and murder to support the underground infrastructure.

I don’t have a problem with Michael Phelps taking a bong load; but, as all users of the drug, we need to understand that we are indirectly hurting innocent people in the long run.

Gold $900 Oz

Gold pushed upward to $899.10/oz today!  I’m sure it’s heading much higher once everyone figures out that paper money isn’t back by anything but a bunch of politicians full of hot air…

IMO, gold is heading upwards.  How high nobody knows but some gold prognosticators think it’s heading to $5000 an ounce.  Perhaps this will happen when start calling this economic collapse the “Great Great Depression.”

I bought two Krugerrands this week at $858/oz so I’m a little ahead for this week.  Now I’m not really looking at gold as an investment, but as a hedge to preserve wealth when the USD dies with a loud hissing sound.  But it’s good to know that the gold I got for $800/oz last November is worth more than I paid for.

Today I predict that holiday sales will be dismal — a party thrown — which nobody shows up.

With deep-cut pre-Christmas sales having no effect on customer spending habits, why do stores think that lowering prices another 10 or 20 percent will entice customers to part with their money?

With a deep deflationary cycle going on in the world, simply wait a few months when the prices will be deeply discounted.  Simply wait and only buy the things you need instead of want — because — it’s cool to be frugal.

Will there be an after christmas sales stampede at Wal Mart this Friday?  My prediction there is going to be a huge rush to bring back gifts that nobody really wanted in the first place.

Dump them off and then go get something on sale.  How many will get hurt in the stampede for getting 50 to 80 percent off.

Stay home folks and save your money for the upcoming economic colaspe.

Despite his size, the 6′ 5″, 270 pound Jdimytai Damour could not stop the rush of humanity as hundreds of Wal-Mart shoppers stepped on him on the Black Friday shopping day last week. This is making it extremely difficult for the Police to issue charges in the death of the Walmart worker.

Sad news today: my career as a Playgirl model ended today when I found out the magazine decided to close up shop.  I feel bankrupt, totally Chapter 11.

I took me over a year to get buff and big, if you know what I mean; and I finally got up enough courage to call Playgirl to get the balls rolling…

But now, my hope and dreams of modeling on Playgirl has shriveled away…
