That just means gold is at the highest it will be for the next 20 years, because I bought some.

My grandfather used to talk about how, just before the stock market crash of the great depression, shoe shine boys were giving stock tips.

IMO.. ***** about to hit the fan very soon. Friend of mine owns 7 or 8 restaurants .. They are down almost 10% across the board. The more concerning stat is how many declines cards they are getting per week.. Up 800%. These are 100-150.00 charges that are declined.. Not good.. The average person is tapped out now.

The average American is statistically carrying about $6k in credit card debt. The number could be higher than that because many of us who may be figured into that average have zero cc debt. Anyway, that average debt number is going up at about 5% quarterly ~ something has to give.
We bought a lot of road base material for the road last month. They said no checks. Too many bad checks last year

Bigger air compressor for the shop. Will power my wife's new sandblasting cabinet that I bought her for our anniversary, delivery in 5-6 weeks. Compressor is wired to a contactor tied to one of the shop lights. We turn the lights off when we leave so the compressor will not run all night.

I'd be interested in a review of that compressor after you've had a chance to use it for a few months.

My new to me Kubota F2880 that I'd like to use but it's rained every day. Oh well. My dealer even delivered it full of diesel. Went completely through it was well and new blades. My M60 Tank went on trade. Gonna take some getting used to I suspect. Put new mower deck wheels on it as well. Has 1600 hours on it. Not much by Kubota standards.

Will do. It is very quiet, 75 dB. Has the automatic tank and air dryer drains. My wife creates stained glass art. We are starting up a business doing custom stained glass art. We will also be doing sand carving art, both on glass and stone. That is what the cabinet is for. I wanted to make sure it had a dry air source to avoid contaminating the glass or stone. One niche business is sand carved and painted stone pet memorials and commemorative pavers.
