Copyright © 1998 LGB/Kitco Inc. All rights reserved - Ahhh PH, the limitations of the medium. Hopefully you'll gain some sense of humor on this relaxing sail to Catalina!
My previous post was meant as a wry, sarcastic, but humor based rebuke. If I wanted to speak seriously of the policies and character of Clinton ( which I have done MANY times over on the REAL forum ) than I would have taken up way too much Kitco bandwidth!
On the REAL forum I try and address REAL issues. This place is such a void that I thought it couldn't hurt to inject a bit o' character and liveliness into it. Oh well......
P.S. I love Catalina. Nice spot, Been there a few times in my younger SOuthern CA years and planning to take the wife someday as she's never been.
Flying fish awayyyyyyyyyyyy

Copyright © 1998 PH in LA/Kitco Inc. All rights reserved - Well, LGB, I guess this is it! Time to bid you good-by. I will no longer be reading or responding to your inane and logically deficient posts. As I expected, you have once again found it impossible to actually engage in any meaningful debate whatsoever on any level above name-calling.
Specifically: Anyone who actually has something to say about the President of the United States' policies or political acts, would voice them. But noooooo! Knowing that it is popular these days to throw mud in his direction, you call me his supporter and assume everyone will applaud.
Well, obviously in the circles from where you come, that must work just great. With me, it just points out the weakness of your intellect.
As I said above, I will no longer respond to your stupid remarks. Not because they are in the least bit difficult to discredit. Or because I find them anything but pathetic, rather because it has become a repetitious and boring exercize...exactly what I expected, and expressed to you then, when I bothered to speak in your direction when you appeared here in the first place. You may note that I say in your direction rather than to you. The reason for this intentional choice of phrase is --as I have told you before -- that you do not read and/or understand what others say to you...rather you live trapped inside your own little unoriginal opinions and merely go about braying them unceasingly to the world, as if doing so will make them more believable to yourself. It is sad, actually; and you have my sympathy.
I will leave you now, to post Farfel's essay over on K-1 ( where it belongs and where many will appreciate it ) and then to take off for a good long weekend of sailing. ( Taking the family to the island of Catalina, if you're interested. )
Again: Good-by and good luck!

farfel (If Dow Cannot Pull Out of Its Slide Today...) ID#17077:
Copyright © 1998 farfel/Kitco Inc. All rights reserved - ...then margin calls tomorrow ( from Monday's disaster ) will produce our first real market debacle.
Some stocks look like they have been pushed up today for one last bout of insider sales. Intel is a prime example...volume is astronomical on a very weak day, helped along by a final spate of urgent BUY recommends from various Street brokers. Yet, other than that, there is nothing to suggest why its stock has been up today. In answer to an earlier question, I think this company is the best short out there owing to its absurd stock price, the ability to buy puts with relatively little premium ( compared to a YAHOO or AMAZON ) , and its best case equilibrium point of $55 a share.
With respect to any market debacle, various hedge funds will go bankrupt and be compelled to cover their deficits. Since many of these hedge funds are shorting gold, they will be compelled to cover their shorts to generate margin revenue. The short cover should take the metal THROUGH THE ROOF!
I have no doubt that if we get our debacle soon, then we will easily witness a gold price well in excess of $1000 an ounce.
The American Dollar's unusual weakness these past few days reflects international opinion that there are simply way too many of them out there. The world is awash in Dollars. Furthermore, it is a final acknowledgement that America cannot and will not be impervious to the economic calamities raging around the world. No country today is an island unto itself.
If you know of friends or family that have failed to protect themselves with the insurance of hard assets, then I would urge you to call them again and implore them to do so.
A few days ago, my wife and I visited an elderly friend of ours who just returned from the hospital. When we learned that she had no gold in her possession, I gave her an Eagle my wife ALWAYS carries in her purse.
Finally, I will offer up a prayer...a prayer for this country that it will get through tomorrow's hard times in the best spirit possible.
Thanks.

Try actually reading my posts, sometime, and you will find they are anything but pointless, thoughtless or mindless. But then, weren't you the one who used to find ANOTHER's riddles incomprehensible?
Gee PH..... and this.....from you....a guy who remains a DieHard Clinton supporter! As *Fboy would say...HARHARHARAHARHARHARHARHARHAR!!!!!!!!!!
