Re: what's happening here w/ gold?
My two cents: Liquidity exiting assets perceived as speculative, since the stock market is showing signs of weakening and subprime mortgage lenders are going belly up. There is a perception out there that the subprime contagion could affect the entire real estate complex, thus dooming the economy in the process. Gold's a… -

Re: Anyone have the TV footage of Bert Blyleven swearing on air?
I think that is hilarious! I also don't think it's any big deal. Either kids have heard it and know he was bad for saying it or they have never heard the word and it flew over their head. Don't get me wrong...the suspension was deserved. I just hope it wasnt too severe because there is MUCH worse on television that is… -

<< <i>"The percentage of kids from the South going to play in the North is much smaller than the opposite." Got any stats to back that up?

Re: Looking at Uncle's Cards UPDATED
Well, I just got home a little while ago. I have bad news and a little good news. It seems that he has been buying stuff off of Ebay and other auction sites and flea markets up until a couple years ago. He has a lot of late 90's through about 2012 commons, autographed cards and jersey patch cards. I went through those… -
Re: A few questions from a noob!
WOW!!!! Man you guys give some awesome advice. I have seemed to trust my little flea market guy out in the middle of nowhere a bit much I guess. I'm in sales (real estate broker), and usually very good at spotting the bullsh**ers quickly! I really can't imagine this guy being full of it, and ripping me off, but who knows.… -

...ahem...pardon me, Mr. Longacre, sir... (it is nice to see you actively churning out your inquisitive posts after a long and hopefully refreshing summer)... as I'm sure you already know... ...generally speaking...(in my generally honest opinion)...it is not generally a good idea to rely on generalities... ...part time or… -
