eeos – Ski Train

Posted by Maya @ 15:30 on February 22, 2019  

Yes, that is a neat train stop right next to the tunnel.  I seem to recall the old ski train used to stop right there and let skiers off right next to the tracks before they built that sidewalk.  The ski trains all have to go down the line to Fraser where the first available siding is.  The morning train parks on the siding, the locos disconnect and run around the parked train and reconnect facing back toward Winter Park, ready for the return trip.  The train lays over in the siding all day to keep the mainline clear for traffic until the evening return trip.

I wonder that happened to the old Ansco ski train?  I really liked the color/design of the Ansco train…. looked like the old Rio Grande Zephyr.  I heard it was’t profitable. Last I saw the train was sold up to Canada and repainted.   And now Amtrak is running a ski train, so it must be profitable.  I guess times and passenger loads have changed, if the highways are clogged now as you say.

Decent action although they have been drifting everything lower on light volume for the last couple of hours.

Most impressed with the action in silver.

Hate holding over the weekend, but it is what it is…

Juicy Smellit has been cut from further episodes of ‘Empire’ for the season.  It is said that this affair negatively affected others on the show.  We all know Hollywood keeps hush-hush blacklists of undesirable actors.  He will be lucky to get a janitorial job after he gets out of jail.   Don’t worry about ‘intent’, Ororeef.  There is plenty of evidence of that.  Paying the perps with a a personal check?!  Not a real brainiac move. Store video of the perps purchasing the ‘props’, too.  Slam-dunk prosecution.   Watch the IRS come after him now for not issuing a 1099 income form to the perps.   Heh heh heh.

Good action….especially after ystdys blatant scum attack.

Smollett is an Actor

A trained Liar ..theyre always pretending to be somebody they’re NOT.

Thats what acting is…pretending to be something your NOT .

Dont believe thier words watch their doings and dont believe that if somebodys watching !

Professionel LIARS …..by training  That what Hollywood produces and dont believe any of it …!

Entertaining ..sometimes when they arent trying to inflict damage on someone .When they have an Agenda that harms anyone put them in JAIL just like a professional bank Robber,rapist ,Psycopathic killer .

What is his intent ? Is he a writer ? Did he script it ,that proves intent.!

Silver bouncing back a bit after yesterdays beatdown

USD moving slowly back toward the flatline.

CNBS reporting the Newmont-Barrick deal is a hostile takeover attempt by Barrick. Probably hostile to the price of gold as well. Barrick is the best friend a banker can buy.

Barrick Comments on Media Speculation

8:37 am ET February 22, 2019 (Globe Newswire) Print
Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:GOLD)(TSX:ABX) today confirmed that the Company has reviewed the opportunity to merge with Newmont Mining Corporation in an all-share nil premium transaction. No decision has been taken at this time.

Not sure this is a good thing but NEM is up nicely in premarket

Barrick Gold Mulls Bid for Rival Miner Newmont -Globe and Mail

5:52 am ET February 22, 2019 (Dow Jones) Print
Barrick Gold Corp. is considering a takeover bid for Newmont Mining Corp., the Globe and Mail reports, citing unnamed sources.

–The Toronto-based gold miner would pay around $19 billion in stock for Colorado-based Newmont, the Globe and Mail says. If it can win shareholder approval, it would represent one of the largest-ever mining deals, according to the newspaper.

–The mooted deal would also see some of Newmont’s assets flipped to Australian miner Newcrest Mining Ltd., the Globe and Mail reports.

Maya they just added that stop

Posted by eeos @ 7:34 on February 22, 2019  

the sidewalk is relatively new just a few hundred feet from the Moffat tunnel.
Trains used to come out of Moffat tunnel at WP but stopped down in Fraiser a couple miles down. The real reason the train is so great is that traffic in the mountains has become unbearable to the point where it’s no longer fun to ski.

Thanks for trying. I was looking for someone from Hilo during the 1960’s. I found him in Honolulu. He was in Viet Nam with a friend of mine.

Trump supporter veteran Chase bank closed his account

Posted by goldielocks @ 21:21 on February 21, 2019  

Not the first one either. Apparently they have snoops working for them and on company time snooping through clients personal life and closing their accounts if they’re conservatives. Are they snoops or told to? They weren’t even going to give him a reason until his post went viral and calls coming in threatening to close their accounts. Then the opened how account. Wow But he went elsewhere.

Grand Slam!

This racism thing

Posted by goldielocks @ 20:26 on February 21, 2019  

Seems to me genes mutated along the way stops in DNA tests ” in Europe” except American Indian but then you usually need enough which makes Pocahontas’s seem strange and from SA not NA.
White genes didn’t appear till the migrated to closer countries. To adapt to the cold to absorb more Vita D from the sun which also could include blue eyes. They call these blue eyes recessive genes not dominant. We were all one blood type once and that’s why type O is a universal donor.
As more people from the southern parts immigrated before there was established segregation through customs and countries the white genes spread through Europe making Europe white. The colder the climate like Sweden the lighter they got. The taller they got depended on how well their survival skills and farming fed them. Apparently for adaptive genes they were pretty dominant. Africans didn’t need to adapt in warm climate.
These days it seems more of a social thing seen as self victimization. If people want to talk equality then act like it and not expect it to be handed to them just because their not white. White is just a physical adaptation the rest is survival skills and expanding the mind as once our primal mind was not as formed as today. So it’s a regressive culture not a race since we were all similar once.

Last I heard he’s out in bond then went to the studio to do a take.
The Police Chief appears on the up and up.
I was appalled at one black talking head who said if it was about racism that would be one thing but because he wanted more money is outragious. So it’s okay if it’s about racism even if it’s fake. Sounds racist in itself.
He apparently gets 50K per take.

Goldi – Juicy Smellit got arrested.

Posted by Maya @ 19:08 on February 21, 2019  

The Chicago Police Chief (who is African-American) had a great public update on it all…. and the Chief is ‘Outraged’.   Juicy is going to jail… probably there already.  He ain’t doing any more episodes.

Smollett couldn’t get out of the courts as I could only hope even if police couldn’t do much about it or now I hear the mail scam again blaming MAGA. Still we’ll see how it ends vs a white person.
Rosie gets kicked off a show because of a comment but he does this racist stunt falsely accusing MAGA and goes to make another take keeping him in the script. Where’s the outrage?

Gaahh!  “Rosemary’s Baby”… occasional-cortex, congresschild.  Is there an age limit on Vice President?  I have this nightmare of her running with Bernie.

Sounds like Juicy Smellit is gonna get a gay man’s dream…. locked up in prison with a bunch of horny men.
