This morning, I ran across this interesting article from the New York Post website.

Excerpt:

THERE’S a worldwide run on gold coins.

Even as the price of the precious metal itself comes under pressure along with commodities like oil and copper, people around the world are demanding so many of the valuable coins that government mints are having difficulty filling orders.

A spokesperson for the US Mint tells me that gold coins in this country, for the past month, “are being allocated because of an increased demand.”

I must admit that when I first heard about the Brazilian martial art of Capoeira that I thought it was a bit silly. Having a wife who is a three time national fighting champion in Shotokan, I’m brainwashed to be more of a martial arts purist.

You are going to LOVE this video of a Capoeira fighter vs a brawler in the ring.

Yesterday, October 8th Officer Brandy Roell sent a thank you letter to those who have helped since she was shot in a gun battle last month.

I know you are as shocked as I am to read that headline.. I was interviewed for an article called “The Yuppie Survivalists”, in this months edition of Details Magazine.

It’s a well written article about how more mainstream people are starting to invest in food storage as a hedge against future uncertanty. I was given the honor of the last quote in the article, so skip on to page 3 and scoll down to the bottom.

It’s hard to believe that this isn’t making big news. According to a Washington Times article, Pelosi has paid almost 100,000 from a PAC fund to her husbands real estate investment firm. Wasn’t Pelosi one of the people that attacked Tom DeLay for almost the same thing?

It’s no wonder that America has lost it’s faith in our government.

So far, I’m loving the Disgruntled Truck Drivers platform for his 2012 run for congress.

It almost seems like the US Government has totally forgotten the fact that THEY work for US, not the other way around.  Depending on how things go in the next year, maybe I’ll copy his platfrom and make a congressional run myself.

The MOAB (Mother of all Bailouts) has taken up so much discussion in the media that this interesting/scary story was lost in the noise.

US Scientists have alerted congress to the risks of using cell phones and their possible link to brain cancer.  They discussed that the older studies were flawed becuased the classified regular cell phone use as “once per week”.
