How's about a golden chastity belt (including padlock and key) for Janet Yellen?
The starting to move fast in Europe and yet as we get closer to our own fiscal cliff we hear nothing from ratings agencies. Have they learned nothing.Proposition du consommateur
You know, the face of that masked man with the gold shirt looks somewhat familiar.
Another Bonsai quandry. Is it "Master! You flung dung!" or is it "Master; who flung dung?"
Will dung cling to a pure gold gi?
I would prefer a spoof on Edible Gold, for the day when folks realize that a shiny yellow metal will not save them from the hoards.
Nor will your then worthless dollars, bonds, stocks, and other paper. But you can wipe your ass it with it I suppose if you run out of toilet paper.
BTW, I saw the other day where Vietnamese Dong is 20,860 / 1 USD.
Their currency is worth far less than toilet paper.
No way could you buy 20,000 sheets of toilet paper for $1.
I would prefer a spoof on Edible Cash, for the day when folks realize that a piece of paper with ink will not save them from the hoards.
hoardz?
Is this what you are referring to?

Of course drinking gold is well-established

And I've seen links to gold bullets. I guess the kind banksters prefer any use for gold over its barbaric one.
When the hoards do arrive, you may or may not be able to put your gold to good use.
But no chance of that with fiat currency or shares issued in street name I'm afraid.
Yep.
Are the hordes coming for our hoards?
Or are the hoards coming for our hordes?
Damn, this English language (like being the 43rd president) is hord!
Not so fast guv'nor. If the hordes are coming from Shropshire, they could be Hords, Hordes, Hoords, Hoordes, Hoards, or Hoardes. Bunch of rum bastards this lot.

My Lord, the hoardes are coming for your hoard.
I have referred your query to my spill chucker department. It says the proper answer is herds.
The thing constantly argues with me and only works when it feels like it.

So, it's female, then?
Akak's first was, of course, correct. Second an attempt at humor. Your spell-checker is a device for dumbing-down an already semi-literate (mis-educated) populace.
Gold is the only thing that will be worth anything after the dollar is cheap green confetti. Farmland also considerd a hard asset. I am hoarding those two things. Don't hold your breath waiting for the herds though, they aren't likely to show up to your party.
It will also protect you from being strip searched by millimeter scanners.

I want to see Charlie Mungo in his golden slippers and golden robe. He is an evil old ***k like his pal Buffett.
Mungo?
Santamariaaaaaa!
...
Mungo? Santamariaaaaaa!
While the name evokes memories of late night latin orchestras, and the pulsing pleasures of ritmo habanero, there is also the ultimate cautionary tale hidden in your purposeful mangling of the MOnGoMon's name...
at least for white guys with boats.
Mungo Park, the ultimate winner in the category of avoidable boating accidents-after improbably(and partially successfully) returning from an expedition to fix the course of the Niger River, was hailed as the veritable discoverer of the Dark Continent, and could have been content to rest upon his laurels...but
"at the Bussa rapids, not far below Yauri, the boat struck on a rock and remained fast. On the bank were gathered hostile natives, who attacked the party with bow and arrow and throwing spears. Their position being untenable, Park, Martyn, and the two soldiers who still survived, sprang into the river and were drowned. The sole survivor was one of the slaves, from whom was obtained the story of the final scene"
I'm beginning to fear that many of us silver bugs are all too similar to the late lamented Scotsman...having bravely set sail to discover(and profit from)the termination of the deep flowing river of corrupt market manipulations, to our great dismay it is beginning to appear that the witchdoctors of the fiat jungle can not only give birth to infinite new paper foilage, but also control the river's flow, so that what appeared a perfectly safe passage now contains the perils of jagged rocks that would never have existed in the 'natural' course of human affairs....
hmm...when the only survivors are slaves, it's time for some deep thinking - how do we beat these savages at their own game? I for one, would much prefer to neither die on the Niger, nor fail at my object! Much too over the top, all that C19th century explorer trope!
