"The Asians and Islamics are buying all the gold!"




Anyone besides me remember the Barney Miller episode in which the Ron Glass character Detective Harris got all emotional about the gold-bug's hoard of krugerrands?

Or the one in which the time-traveller told him that zinc was the money of the future?

I wish that show would go into syndication.

Perhaps it will by the time I sell my precious metals shares and retire. ;^)

"Foolish Humaan. Everyone knows that gold-pressed latinum is the money of the future."

I was talking to somebody the other day about gold and how Roosevelt stole all of our gold in 1933. He told me to "lighten up" and I said he was a fool if he thought I would sell gold just because of a price run-up.

He said no, that "lighten up" was hip talk for calming down and not for reducing a bullion position.

So I said fine, do you remember that movie where the American soldiers went behind enemy lines to get all the gold? He said, "Sure, my wife loves George Clooney."

I asked him who the heck George Clooney was. To my knowledge he wasn't in "Kelley's Heroes." That's the movie where Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Donald Sutherland, Don Rickles and a bunch of other great Americans go take the German's gold.

He just looked at me and said I was crazy. Poor fella didn't know about how that thieving dog Roosevelt stole all of our gold and he called me crazy. Who the heck is George Clooney anyway? Was he the German colonel that told Eastwood where all the gold was?

The Asians and Islamics are buying all the gold!
