    Why do you think there might be a military coup in China? Seems like a far fetched scenario.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    If you study your Chinese history, this one is overdue. It is in process currently. Wouldn't be suprised if the State Dept issues warnings soon.

    Be interesting to see if the military starts saber rattling even more and how the Chinese citizenry will respond with gold purchases. For sure, if this were happening in Iran, world jitters would be sending gold up up up.

    Well that would certainly spice up the news scene. Far more interesting than listening to the latest gaffes of the candidates. Cheers, RickO

    I'm currently in China. I just had about 20 shots of Tequllia and danced three Lady Gaga songs with a chick in a white ruffled dress. I almost surrendered to her.

    I don't always drink beer but when I do it's Dos Equis.

    For the record I don't like Lady Gaga or Poker Face. However Tequilla is my love drink and I have a serious weakness for white ruffle dresses and what's in them.

    My driver is currently hurtling down the perfectly paved highway at about 150 mph taking me back to my office. He is neither apparently concerned about gas prices or the impending coup. He does have the air conditioning on way too high.

    That is some EXCELLENT typing for a guy in a polar-cold taxi going 150 mph over close-to-potential roads with 20 snorts of Tequila under his belt, and a chick in white ruffles on his lap.

    How'd you DO that! image

    Even if there were I'm not sure how different things would REALLY be although simply doing whatifs on the possibilities of potential for market moving announcements from the new leaders is horryifying to ponder.

    The United States bottles cane sugar coca cola in Georgia for the Mexican market who then resell it to us at over $25 a case.

    I left Mainland China for the weekend. I think Hong Kong is where the coup is being organized. It is being done under the guise of The Sevens World Rugby Tourney

    Notice the advance on the police. The organizers are very brazen. Sorry for the finger in the picture but this was pretty scary stuff when they are on the move like this. These girls were well armedimage

    I was actually kidnapped on Saturday night and was interrogated by one of the organizers. I told her everything she wanted to hear and was finally released just in time for brunch on Sunday. Coup stuff is exhausting. MJ

    You haven't been to HK or China recently then have youimage

    On any given night in any large trading city in China you will find the hot bars full of mostly American, Canadian, Aussie and British guys etc.......... and packed with Asian women. Welcome to where the some of the best jobs are and those that follow them..........

    PS- These pic's were snapped on Leighton street where most of the Seven's fans were hanging out. One of the best scenes on the planet. Every bar was like that.

    Dave, when I did wake up in Sunday I really had no idea where I was so there are germs of truth to your query.

    Tim, the dude with the chicken bone necklace was either from Australia or New Zealand I forget which and I doubt he survived the night. God rest his soul.

    I was trampled on and spit out by the fairer sex this past week in stunning fashion. It was a total beat down. The rout was on...........When your in China you better to remember to wear your big boy pants...........otherwise you might accidentally try to put on the wrong jeans while attempting to sneak out under the cover of darkness. The last time I wore a size 0 was like never. Coup's are not as glamorous as People Magazine make them out to be.They are hard work with lots of sacrifices to be made,............MJ
