What's that smell?

Good afternoon,

Well, I'd be lying if I said it's not been fun watching the talking heads backpedal and try to explain why the stock markets have continued to retreat in the face of a "fundamentally strong economy" whatever the hell that is. I've heard about all the bullshit that I can take from these idiots.

The consumer is suffering from withdrawal from the credit "orgy" that's been taking place over the last few years and our artificially supported standard of living in this country is about to get "whacked" big time! The pain is going to become unbearable and the FED is finally coming out of the ether but it's just too late. I know I sound like a broken record but it's for your own good. You have to protect yourself, your family and your money. I only hope that you've taken my advice and sold your stocks, bought some gold and paid off your debt. We'll just have to wait and see how bad this economy spirals out of control. I'm betting it will be far worse than anything that we've seen in my lifetime.
