Thanks Laz. Can’t wait till tomorrow. Then its only 7 days!
I like that - - makes it feel sooner...
Glad you are maintaining this informative countdown thread.
We gently ask you to reconsider your ill-advised choice of "goldbricker" as a pejorative. The heavy, meticulous work of mining & refining tons of ore to extract the precious element Au (79), then heating it to 1,948oF and molding the molten gold into bars, bricks, & coins of .999 purity with very precise weights, transporting the bullion safely into securely locked vaults, to create a permanent bulwark of durable Reserves backing an authorized, controlled amount of paper currency in circulation to facilitate legitimate commerce, promote sound contracts & business planning, and protect a nation's citizens' purchasing power & store of value, is a noble profession a high calling.
The derisive term "goldbricker" is a bastardization of this venerable devotion to applied metallurgy & sound economics.
In fair exchange for your retraction, we here at the desert retreat of the Marin Forensic Finance Pathology Lab gladly offer you these five new adjectives (in alphabetical order, of course) + one festive noun to add to your [previously] monotonically increasing list:
cowardly / imperious / psychotic / slithering / treacherous
fruitcake.
Best Health,
goldbrix / goldbux
CDO, MFFPL / MFLPL

Darn, I was thinking the famous trucking song was ‘8 days upon the road’. Nope, it’s six of course.
Oh well, there’s a Foghat “8 days on the road”- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpIfczDpClY for those who like Foghat.
Cute little octopus! Love it!
