The Golden Truth: Best Super Bowl Ad in My View:

Best Super Bowl Ad in My View:

I think most of the ads were overrated, especially the sappy one with Betty White that everyone seems to like. This ad ran before the coin toss, so if you were refilling your beer you probably missed it, but I thought this one with Larry Bird at the end was the most entertaining:

"He's takin' our lunch..."

LOL--guess it was too expensive to get both Bird and Jordan for it.

It's especially amusing when you consider that Bird wasn't exactly a splendiferous dunker. But I'd rather of had him any day than Dwight Howard and probably Lebron.

LOL. The beauty of it was that the hick from French Lick is arguably one of the best players ever. Bird has a couple trophies that LeBron may never touch.

Does the newer generation even know who Larry Bird is? I have seen Bird play many a time at the old Garden.

Oh yeah,
SAINTS WIN!!!!!!!!!

LOL. LeBron wasn't even born yet when Bird won NBA Rookie of the Year.

Great game last night. Payton comletely out-coached Caldwell. Payton has balls the size of Jupiter for doing that on-side kick to start the 2nd half. If the Colts recover that, they probably win. Was fun to watch the (S)aints beat the Colts. Brees was phenomenal after the 1st qtr.

Lebron is the only player past or present who can match Superman dunk for dunk and match Larry Legend shot for shot.

We are all witnesses...

Why Gold?

Gold is the world's oldest currency. You exchange your fiat currency (dollars, euros, yen, yuan) into gold as an insurance policy against catastrophic Central Bank and Government policies which serve to destroy the value of fiat currencies and destroy democracy.

Gold can ONLY be considered an investment to the extent that it remains significantly and historically undervalued in relation to the fiat currencies against which its value is measured. Otherwise it remains the world's oldest currency and is completely free from the counterparty risk associated with currency by Government fiat (i.e. fiat currencies rely on a Government's "full faith and credit.")

Quote Of The Month Courtesy of "Jesse"

Unfortunately for Larry Summers, Ben Bernanke, and their friends at the BIS, they have not yet figured out how to print physical gold, silver, and other essential commodities, and the world is reaching the point where it might simply start ignoring the New York based markets with respect to essential commodities such as basic materials, oil, foodstuffs, and the like, as they become increasingly irrelevant, fraudulent, and Orwellian. And then where will the financial engineers be, except with no more excuses and no place to hide?

Here is the link to his entire commentary, well worth a read:

Great Quote From Jim Rogers On Govt CPI Reporting

JR: I mean, we have inflation now. If you go to the shop, whether it’s groceries, or education or insurance or health care, prices are going up for everything. The government lies about it in the US. Some countries lie, many countries don’t: Australia, China, India and Norway. Many countries don’t lie about it and acknowledge that we have inflation. Others lie about it, the UK and the US, but if you go shopping you know prices are up.

Q: Are you saying that the American Consumer Price Index (CPI) published by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics is a lie?

JR: In my opinion, yes, of course it is. Have you looked at it? They’ve changed their accounting several times in the past few decades. When housing was 20% to 25% of the CPI and housing was going up, they didn’t count it, saying rents weren’t going up, and then when home prices started going down, they counted it. It’s the same with many things. It’s staggering some of the tortuous reasoning that the BLS has used over the past 25 or 30 years. When the price of gasoline goes up, they say it’s not really going up because it’s better gasoline, better quality, therefore you’re getting more for your money. I mean, it’s endless, the stuff that they say and for some reason people sit there, although more and more people are catching on, and accept what the government says.

Quote of the Week

"The primary function of a Central Bank is to engage in the massive transfer of wealth from the middle class to the wealthy elite. The Federal Reserve was set up to do this with the blessing and support of Congress." - Dave in Denver

If you refuse to believe the above, please read "The Creature From Jekyll Island: A Second Look at the Federal Reserve" by G. Edward Griffin and then explain to me why the Senate voted down the Vitter Amendment and Congress refuses to pass a law requiring a full audit of the Fed, even though the Fed is using taxpayer-backed money to bailout Wall Street and Europe.
