Tell ya, if I ever had any doubts to the power of the Paper Lords, that idea has pretty much been put to rest recently. With all the crappola going on in the world today TPTB are still in charge of the markets. I have sat and observed the past several weeks with great astonishment. (The oil slap down yesterday of oil for two bucks just one example)
With the all financial turmoil rolling from one shore to the next, rumors of another large bank failure, and anemic economy even if you believe half the gubberment figures ( and I don’t ), and the number and extent of the conflicts, and potential ‘wars’….I am amazed how well they can prop up this, slash this one over here , and continue the spin that keeps it all running. Simply, incredibly amazing.
It is a good thing I can occupy some of my day with chores. Do a little canning. And hold on to an ounce or two. And just try to survive whatever is to befall us next. It’s a tough game out there brother. And whatever ‘The End’ game is gonna look like, it aint gonna be a pretty one by my book.
Onward Pilgrams as the good Doc says. Marching into lands unknown. And trying to stay sane, while trying to make sense of the insanity of a world turned upside down. 🙂
