    Hey. "This Occupy Wall Street" thing is starting to grow.

    Which precincts? The ones in the line of fire? LAPD take direct orders from a commission member? I do remember one neighborhood with a machine gun mounted jeep, and didn't appear to be police equipment.

    Hey. "This Occupy Wall Street" thing is starting to grow.

    They have orders to kick-ass. Let's hope the thugs don't join in. It might be an even match then. Conditions got so bad in LA, 1992, the cops retreated.

    First Egypt, then Libya, then Syria, and now the riots have arrived on wall street.

    Fighting with and arresting women. Lol. What a country.

    CME raises margin requirements for gold, silver, cooper

    Expect continued margin increases in this environment. Some believe margin requirements will be cash, before this is all over. Most of the talk about gold bubbles, is coming from the money management community anyway. They don't know where gold is headed anymore than you or I.

    Diesel

    I have owned three diesels and never had any of the problems mentioned. Purchase fuel at a reputable outlet with high volume turnover, keep the tank close to full along with a diesel additive occasionally and the problems should be minimal.

    2011: Rebuilding My Battered Account

    Looks like your problems started at the beginning of 2010. I would take a hard look at the root cause, by reviewing your plan and trades. It might help to clear your head. No question you are in a rut. The trick is figuring how to get out of it.

    Diesel

    Americans waste money buying new cars continually. I wish I had the thousands back I blew in the past having to have the latest sedan or truck. Autos are built to last IF you purchase the right make and model and know how to maintain it. Some guy is still driving around in a 1966 Volvo P1800...

    Bristol Palin in a smackdown

    I've often wondered about this very point. If he loses, will some of the country erupt into a denizen of sore losers prone to pillage?

    Gold is a safe haven

    Yeah, we all know how "heard on the street works". The dollar rally is the story currently. A good pullback will be welcome to re-load.

    Gold is a safe haven

    At the moment there are no safe havens except cash money. Give it a couple of months and the shine will return to dazzle all the bottom sellers today.

    Lost Generation, wow sucks to be young today.

    More than likely "let the good times roll" is ending for all, including the boomers. As in any demographic, there are the minority who saved, were prudent and avoided mistakes and the vissitudes of life, such as divorce, and will fare relatively well. Pensions are what is at risk. What was...

    Lost Generation, wow sucks to be young today.

    Tell me about it. My wife's daughter drove around with "Obama Mama" plastered on the back of her jeep during "08. I wanted to puke every time I saw it. Now she is divorced.

    Lost Generation, wow sucks to be young today.

    Cool. I see old abandoned cars(mainly 1960/1970 vintage) on trailers being pulled behind late-model pickups all the time around this location, taking them home to be revived.

    We're going to keep smoking crack until sanity returns

    Time? It is running out, as this is running on three years with no sign of sustainable growth or reduction in unemployment.

    What a deal. Those were the days.

    Lost Generation, wow sucks to be young today.

    What sort of automobile can one pay $15 for? It must have been an old Packard from the junkyard.

    Boomer Presidents: Bill Clinton (the decay begins) George W. Bush (imbecile) Barack O'bama (fill in the blank) That probably says it all.

    Looks like my old duck hunting and fishing hole. One man's work is another's play.

    Lost Generation, wow sucks to be young today.

    Defense expenditures have reached the point where decisions will have to be made. Too many people living high off the hog with outrageous pension benefits, true. The equation must include massive waste and redundant positions in gov't, defense, and entitlement cuts(food stamps will be hard to...

    Who believes there isn't a Gold bubble right now?

    I would suspect some are viewing today as a gift.
