By the way, Doc, I'm actually a plastic surgeon who has a large hand practice.. Oh the shame and ignominy of being a hand surgeon.  My mother always wanted me to be a colorectal surgeon.

 

Doctor, Doctor, You have to help me.  I just can't stop my hands shaking!!

Do you drink a lot?

Not really, I spill most of it.

I am a butcher cutting up meat

My hands are bloody I'm dying on my feet

I was a surgeon 'till I start to shake

I was a-falling 'till you put on the brakes

 

Hey, hey you got me rocking now ...

 

Rolling Stones, "You Got Me Rocking"

Why Gold?

 

By Hans Sennholz

 

[March 6, 2003]

 

It is difficult to argue with gold. To men everywhere, gold is a desirable economic object. It can be used for the manufacture of jewelry and ornaments. It is a corrosion-resistant element, the most malleable and ductile metal, ideal for plated coating on a wide variety of electrical and mechanical products. It is a good thermal and electrical conductor. It is durable and storable, can be easily hidden from partakers and predators, and readily shipped to other places. Gold is very marketable. In fact, gold may be the most marketable commodity around the globe.

 

Whatever we may think of gold, it always looms in the background, beckoning to be used as money, as it has been since the dawn of civilization.
