Check it out and see if you can figure it out. I'm still thinking.

    I need some grant money, and quick. I'm an OIF vet with almost 6 years time in service.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Gold is $1400 an ounce. How many ounces will you need to hold you over for 1 year? How many guns, ammo, food and fuel can you buy for $1400? Which is really the better deal? I say product. You get more for your money and when you sell your goods in trade for gold you will get all the gold you need at a better price. How will gold be bartered? 1/10 ounce = 1 tank of gas? Or does 1 oz = tank of gas?

    On the gold coins it says:
    1/10 ounce coin $5
    1/4 $10
    1/2 $25
    1oz $50

    Now how does 2 1/10 oz coins have the same $ value as a 1/4 oz with 5% LESS gold?

    Or 2 1/4 oz coins has the same amount of gold but $5 less in buying power than a single 1/2 ounce coin.

    Is it not strange that 10 1/10 oz, 2 1/2 oz and 1 1oz all have the same gold and $ value. But the 1/4 oz seems to be the buzzard coin. You either have to have 5 of them or 1.25 oz to = the same value of the other coins?

    The news reported that this months Annual Vacation by our president and his family will be to a top-scale resort, the cost about $5 million for the 8 days. The reporter went on to say that this shouldn't alarm taxpayers because the president is paying for it with his own money because he is independently wealthy.

    A review of our presidents tax return shows his net worth at $3.6 million; his sources of income being royalties/publishing revenue from his three books, none of which remain on any best seller list and his salary for president $200,000 per year, increased this year despite sequestration to $400,000.

    So I'd like to know how anyone can afford an eight day vacation that will cost more than their entire net worth and income for the next year or two. Once I learn how it is done, maybe I can make reservations with the Alaska Outfitters for a trophy Dall Sheep hunt.

    So if I want to trade silver coin, how do we figure out the sales price!

    Seems odd to me.

    Minute rice. Ya put it in boiling water then remove it from the heat and let it NOT cook. So i guess you just "make" minute rice instead of cookin' it. Modern technology is something else.

    If you put instant coffee in a microwave, do you go back in time?

    When I was single, and cooking for me, I remember buying Uncle Ben's Minute Rice.Took three minutes to cook per directions.Methinks the same ad writers write for the anti gun lobby. Maybe even some gun, and optics ones too.
    Happy Bullet Holes!

    They never advertised how many minutes, or which minute! Gosh you people need english comprehension lessons with Slick Willie.

    I always wondered why they called it a .357 Mag. instead of .38 Mag. as in .44 Mag. 7m/m Mag. See my point?

    Consistent terminology is seldom observed in the naming of cartridges, particularly in commercial designs. It's frustrating at times, but it does make collecting the stuff more interesting.

    Yeah....I still haven't figured how to get 3,000 grains of black powder in that .250 Savage brass. [This message has been edited by Xracer (edited 01-08-2002).]
