Oldtent Archives 2007 - 2008

At the time, my son was in, growing thrugh, his late teens. My two daugters….were just entering thier teens. I took a couple weeks during a summer break, to teach them a few things. Probably a little too hard core…at the time. Probably, should not have treated them as a boot camp, rousting them out of bed at 05:00 for PT, and situps and pushups. Probably, should not have place such young minds and bodies….to the things I did. Thought it a good idea at the time. Mostly, cuase, I never wanted to ever, recieve a phone call in the middle of the night one day…..Mr. Farmboy, this is officer so and so…..and your son, or daughter…has been involved in some tragic accident. I never, wished to recieve that phone call….so for a couple weeks one summer….I put my kids through hell. Felt bad about that for a long time.

Felt bad about it, untiil recently my son, now in his thirties, told me of a story. Told me how in a bar one night, ….some idiot picked on a friend of his. Told me…how my son interjected himslef into the equation, and how the summer of long ago finally paid a dividend. Told me, how he removed a knife from a drunken person, who was about to attack a friend.

I must have come across to my kids as some fruit cake at the time. I hated to take thier sumnmer, thier time at the pool,…to teach them a few things. Even I thought…I was too ‘hard core’.

I hope, it will save thier life one day. Especially, if they get ’stuck’ in the USA. I hope, thier generation, will have bigger balls than ours. And can find a way….to take thier country, and thier liberties back. I hope….it can be done…..without the bandages, and bleeding, you and I have seen. I hope…….

Best, and night, Farmboy

if they are talking about it on fast money. cnbs will only talk about something if it is completely obvious. I also heard them say something about the metal stocks getting smashed and not rebounding, but how the rest of the stocks did. I think it is a nice wake up call for everyone in the casino.

Talked about the amazing recoveries late in the day over and over again.

Add any opinions you might have on any aspect.  IMO, for “all things to be considered”…….all ideas need to be offered………..

Have a great night………..GR

Sometime I will post my idea (no doubt wrong) about 2012. I have emailed Moggy on this subject because as you know it is an astrological event . Going outside my area here but I think at this point it merely means a change into another level for all of us on Earth. Now on the Spring equinox there might be (will be) an investing event.

I define events as things that make a V bottom (1987). But it is just that - an event. Not a change in trend. More some other time.

If we can just get it halfway right into 2012, then we can re-evaluate, later.  That scenario, chart or otherwise, carries great implications for life for all of us, IMO………………………

I have always admired your charts and your analysis. I like your targets. But I disagree on time as it turns out. This thing IMO will be decades at least into the 2030’s.

BTW I have often advised Ment on taco etiquette. It isn’t rocket science. Just a couple of basic rules.

Ah me - wasted time apparently.

Have a good night.

Discussions are good………looking at all things from all directions is good……….Have you ever turned a taco upside-down to closely examine the bottom?  Ment has………..how do you think he gets all that taco sauce all over him?

“I am convinced, that IF America is to return to its former values….it will be the young, who will take up the call of Freedom, and lead the way.”

You are absolutely right! Many have written off the Free State Project as a failure because it could not reach its goal of recruiting 20,000 people within five years. As of now they have recruited only 8000 people and even that has taken a lot longer than expected. Want to know why? The middle aged baby boomers are too fat, lazy, and satisfied to get off their asses and do anything about the mess in this country. The 8000 people the FSP has recruited have turned out to be almost all 20-somethings! And, unfortuntely, there are a lot less 20-somethings around then there are baby-boomers. But those 20-somethings are sure full of energy! I wish there was some way for me to convey to this forum what is happening here in New Hampshire - maybe people will figure it out when Ron Paul wins our primary in a few weeks.

“I sometimes worry, about putting all our hopes, in one man. (Easily removed from the equation).”

I don’t put all my hopes in Ron Paul. If he is assassinated tomorrow the Ron Paul revolution is only going to get stronger. And old Golden Age is going to keep right on working toward freedom in a number of other ways. The Free State Project kids are involved in all kinds of non-Ron Paul stuff - go read about it on the FSP website…

“But I think the ideals, thoughts, of Ron Paul, will always ring true.”

Of course - this is not about the man - it is about his message! 

As best as I can tell, we see a run in Silver to around 26 and Gold to 1105 (a Gann number) to 1237 (a previous GR number that he cannot annotate to check), then a cyclical quasi-deflationary scare that will cause a sharp drop in the PM sector to retest the old historic highs….probably back to around 850 to 900.  At that time, the HUI will drop very sharply from the highs as the general stock market goes into a bottom, though it will have been rolling over for sometime before that.  Then, we see the start of the true parabola in Gold and Silver.  The sweep that will likely run into 2012.  Somewhere in there, I’d expect to see the USD backed by the PMs………………….

Trade this volatile roller coaster right, and you will be able to buy enough physical to protect generations even before TSHTF, me thinks.

Greetings Sinbad. You are another person (and your wife) mrs aurum and I were glad to meet at NE GA.

GR - well we will have to postpone this discussion as I need more sleep than you.

Last summer I was taking pictures of the Kentucky River and the high cliffs called the pallisades thee. I was beneath High Bridge, which as you can imagine, of course, is high. I was suddenly acousted by two fellas claiming to be “Homeland Security” said I could not take pictures of a bridge! Must have been no gold there either. Making Amerika safe.

Ah maybe you are saying there will be a false deflation scare that will cause problems in pm’s?

Which gets us to another area which I don’t want to go - in deflation (real or the scare) how would pm’s do?

Those gold bars at Ft. Knox are in deepest, double deep storage now, never to be counted again. I wouold be absolutely astounded should there ever in this life or the next be an accounting by an independent auditor.

But the Mrs Fox & I saw the building & they wouldn’t let us take a picture of the outside even. Do you mean it’s empty
