THE BEARS ARE HERE


This is obvious by now, but I will admit I am somewhat Delta Pos- on the whole darn mess. Please enjoy the picture my dad drew back in 66... He inspired my every move.

Still long GLD with some covered calls. Can you believe that? What next?



Sometimes we need to spend more time deciding what our next trade will be.




Every good trader has an emotional,physical,spiritual and mental place of retreat and reflection. To each his own, be it literal or a place we go in our meditative mind.

If you want to be in the top 3% of all traders you will find yours without my help, but this picture may give you something to get the juices flowing... Best of luck in your trades.

Bobby Wild -N- Cool

I was on my way to help my brother with some welding this week, and I saw a fella sitting on the side of the road. He was holding up a home made sign that said "Bobby Wild -N- Cool... PRICE". I was only about 45 minutes away from price, and I was all alone, so I thought- "what the heck"


I turned around and picked him up. He introduced himself as Bobby, and showed me his Arizona D.L. I introduced myself and showed him that I had a loaded pistol in the compartment behind the passenger chair. In other words, we had an accord. I agreed to take him as far as the local mission in Helper Ut.


I am glad I stopped; B.W.N.C. and myself had a great time riding through the canyon. He told me of his travels and I shared a few of my own. He told me that he has been a "traveler on a mission" for the last 3 years. He said that recently he has noticed that people have become more friendly toward hitchhikers. He explained that more people take the time to be nice and talk to him.

He told me that he hitched his first ride (in price canyon) back in 1978 - I told him I was a 5 year old baby boy sleeping in my bed, about 2 miles away- as the crow goes...

As I reflect on it now, he may have been my Guardian Angel?

He did look a bit like the LORD as I picture him... tan skin, brown hair that hit his shoulders, a kind smile, and a clear pair of eyes that looked as clean as pure blown glass; like they had been dipped from the oceans of heaven...

And one more thing... At one point in the ride, he took a moment to show me a fresh wound in his right palm that he got while roofing in Arizona 2 days back...

After thinking about it, I thought of the hymn "A poor wayfaring man of grief"...

I swear before the god that made me, every word I have printed here is true...

what a good drive that was... A little spooky too.

Time is runnin out...

"Let's Roll"

If you have never listened to Neil Young's 911 tribute song, you need a good kick in the pants!

just click the link above.

In recent weeks I have realized that "We" the people had better wake up to the reality that our country is in serious trouble. So I am starting with me... Allow me to explain. I have lived in NSL for almost 7 years; in that time I have been the victim of only one crime. A compound miter saw was stolen from my back yard. Many times I have allowed myself to think- "this place is going down hill, and I want to move to a better place."

As I mentioned above; my eyes are now open and I know that this is my home (for now or forever) and I will need to stand my ground. Everyone I have talked to in my neighborhood has had at least one crime of theft committed against them.

The time has come America... "Lets Roll for Freedom, lets roll for love; we are going after Satan on the wings of a dove"

As Neil puts it in his song... You gotta turn on evil and when it tries to hide; you gotta go in after it, and never be denied!" time is running out...

OK that's all fun and poetic but how do we start?

  • Call your city council and get involved.
  • Take a walk at 2:00 AM and bring a big stick and a cell phone
  • start a neighborhood watch
  • teach your kids everything you can about how criminals behave (so they can report, not become criminals)
  • serve your fellow man
  • go on a ride along with a cop on patrol in your town.
  • Report all crimes
  • Obey the law yourself- I know that includes me. No more trips to Phantom Fireworks :)
I hope this helps people. We have a country of our own, lets keep it.
