GOLD -- when is it overpriced?
I realize that weaknesses in our dollar (shaky real estate markets, wars, economy/job woes) inflate the value of Gold...but I'm not reacting to that.

A year ago, gold was selling for between $700-$850/oz and last November we had many of the problems we have today.

As I write this, Gold has skyrocketed to an unbelievable $1170/oz. It touched $1200/oz earlier today.

Bernat's reply on Nov 28th 2009 12:57am EST
Just as a quick counterpoint, I found these two articles:

here

and

here This one is called "How High Can Gold Go" and, again, as a counterpoint, it makes you think gold is actually REASONABLY priced.

A friend recommended a few funds that specialize in profiting in banks and real estate (two different funds) when things go bad. I'm now deciding on investing in those or shorting gold...

wip wip!Heh
trolld's reply on Nov 27th 2009 8:58am EST
I thought this very same thing a year ago, though its definitely gotten to crazy levels.

What I'm curious about is what will really kick it in the junk.... maybe its Dubai's recent pant-shitting?

wip wip!my gut
Gaul's reply on Nov 24th 2009 5:56pm EST
Great points Dave. Although I don't have any actual evidence as to when the gold market will crash, it is inevitable. The fact that any soccer mom can hawk her old gold suggests that either the gold market will be flooded, or that the gold will be burrowed away to keep the market artificially high. free market economy my arse. I believe the next big thing, will be the energies futures market for renewable energies (solar, wind, water, etc). I forsee in the next 10 years, partially due to the green initiatives world wide, we'll see a spike in investments and that will be the next market to inflate.

December Poker
All in attendance at the last event agreed we should do this more often. Well, put up or shut up I say so I'm offering to host the next event here at the Hizz. We actually get delivery from a pizza place now (plus, you know, the restaurant nearby) and I've got a guest bedroom, futon mattress and a couch. I can pick up a couple aerobeds as well. Oh, and I have a poker kit. Real chips. (gasp) Anyway, I'm free the following weekends: Dec 5th, Dec 12th or Dec 19th. Choose your poison and bring your cash. What say you?

Jon, like the pro-active work here. I'm not sure of my holiday plans yet but I can not make Dec 12 that much I know. If anything for me, if I make it home at all it will be the week of x-mass (possible that weekend before). I'll update here once I know for sure. hope to see you guys there so I can teach you all a lesson again (except ryan of course, DAMN IT!!)

wip wip!sounds good
ryan's reply on Nov 13th 2009 12:19pm EST
I'm definitely down for taking all of your money again... i'm sure almost any of those weekends would be alright for me but if i had to pick one i'd say the weekend of the 12th just in case there are loose ends to tie up on the weekend before xmas (and by loose ends that most likely means all my last minute xmass shopping)...

gbarr's reply on Nov 13th 2009 10:12am EST
After watching the final table this week I'm definitely in the mood for some Hold 'em action. The weekends of the 12th and 19th work for me. Forget playing for money - I'm going all in for the bed.

"The Happening"
An Open Letter to M. Night Shyamalan. You’ve done it. You’ve actually done it. I’m not sure how, and it will take many more viewings to isolate the specific reasons…but somehow, some way, you’ve created the worst movie ever made.

Rumor has it that DSN 2.0 is "coming soon" (kinda like the next Duke Nukem). Editing of posts has been broken since the site was moved a while back. I'll be sure to watch The Hap' full-loaded.

GOATOWL's reply on Aug 30th 2009 8:20pm EDT
Dave... yes, the "non-happening" was most certainly not oscar material but seriously, we all know anything with Barry Pepper is destined to be the worst movie ever...

Bernat's reply on Aug 30th 2009 8:14pm EDT
It makes "Battlefield Earth" look like "Citizen Kane."

Hell, even "Showgirls" looks Oscar-worthy next to it.

G -- TOTALLY watch it. Actually:

1) Open a bottle of wine

2) Drink it

3) Open another bottle and start the movie. >

Also, I tried to put formatting in my open letter (above) but DSN ate all my paragraphs. Can't edit it, either *shrug*

wip wip!Sounds bad but...
gbarr's reply on Aug 30th 2009 8:08pm EDT
Was it worse than Battlefield Earth? I have my doubts, but since The Crappening is On Demand I'll have to see for myself.

September Golf/Poker
So this golf trophy has been sitting in my dining room for the past year (which means i must have won last year) and since gbarr/ned will be gaining another year into "old age," I think its time we put another golf/poker weekend together. September seemed to work well last year since we had a decent turn out... "cough" gbarr "cough" .... I am thinking the weekend of the 15/16th but to be honest I am free pretty much any weekend in September so we can take imput from the group to see what works best. I am also thinking we do it again here in CT since it is nice and central to most people but I don't mind driving elsewhere if we wanted to switch it up. The pool will still be open and we can grill up some steaks, burgers, dogs, ect..... Since Kristen donated this lovely trophy last year we are now all obligated to do this again... Let me know what ya think??

wip wip!heh
Gaul's reply on Oct 5th 2009 10:14am EDT
that was ryan's plan all along. Despite the feeling old, and tired at 8pm....we had a fun time

wip wip!good times
ryan's reply on Oct 5th 2009 10:03am EDT
Gbarr, you are co-champion of the first round of poker, so you are well deserving of keeping that polished trophy on display for the next few months.. Thanks again for hosting and as always was an excellent time!

wip wip!Trophy Fail
gbarr's reply on Oct 5th 2009 9:36am EDT
Ryan, you play a mean game of poker my friend but damn you for leaving the trophy on my media shelf in the living room. It stares at me like the money I could be saving by switching to Geico.
Great weekend everyone. Thanks for making the trip Jon, Pete, Ryan and Ned. The rest of you, well, there wasn't enough room in the apt for more people anyway so I'm not going to press the issue.
Looking forward to the Winter Edition hosted by Jon up at "Ye Hill." More beds, space, and reservations for dinner will be welcome. Talk to y'all soon.

Like Ned mentioned I am flying back to Boston Friday evening so please, if you want to come into town Friday plan to be there no earlier than 10p. Looking forward to seeing everyone soon.

GOATOWL's reply on Sep 29th 2009 5:57pm EDT
fellas... yes, i have worked with G-Barr this weekend to finalzie Boston as the HQ for operation "wow, we're too old to be doing this"... Gordon will be flying back friday night from NYC since he is here for work. I suggest people plan to arrive earlier saturday so we can make the best of the weekend. I hope to see you all there!!.... P.S. Jon, sorry I had already locked down the bed during my negotiations with the tall Barr... I suggest the poker winner gets the bed, that's probably the most fair. (good thing I know how to cheat)

oMaT's reply on Sep 29th 2009 9:19am EDT
I'm not sure of my own agenda. It's looking like I'll be on vacation from Oct 1 through Oct 11 so arriving early is an option. Its possible I'm going to carpool with Leif but that hasn't been finalized yet. Also, I don't play golf so I wont be participating in that little madventure. I'll be bringing scotch, soco and smokes and contributing my considerable charm. Ok fine, I meant to say my raging hostility. Whatever. :)

Gaul's reply on Sep 29th 2009 9:06am EDT
So, what is the agenda? When are people to be expected to arrive? do we have a Tee-time? Who is running this show? Ideally, I plan on driving down Saturday morning. spending Saturday night at Ryan's (please post your address again). Ryan or Ned call me to confirm today 603-831-2125. thanks

nowhere's reply on Aug 28th 2009 12:09pm EDT
Just to throw in my two cents (as I only realized there was a thread going on), if something is happening 'round the 10th-11th, I'll do my best to make it ('specially since I never see Mr. Dave). However, in October I'll be working with the good Doctor, so I'll be busy on weekends as well -- but I'm sure I can escape for an eve.

wip wip!No AU for you!
oMaT's reply on Aug 28th 2009 10:35am EDT
Yeah, my AU jaunt was canceled but with the advent of including a Bernat in our festivities I'm def piqued by the 10th/11th idea. Being a holiday should only make it more Hangover-esque fun. :) One vote for October 10/11.

ryan's reply on Aug 28th 2009 10:30am EDT
Jon it sounds like your trip is cancelled? Im thinking we either lock down Saturday the 3rd of October or Saturday the 10th... the 10/11th is a holiday weekend for some (Columbus Day) so I don't know if that is a positive or negative.

ryan's reply on Aug 24th 2009 1:02pm EDT
Im down for the 10/11th as well... sounds like that is a better fit for Jon and TK as well (so he won't be limping as much)... plus that gives everybody plenty of time to block that weekend off on the calender...

oMaT's reply on Aug 24th 2009 12:36pm EDT
Best odds at this point are that I'll be in Melbourne from Sept 12 through Oct 3. My best weekend would be Oct 10-11 but I'm pretty sure I'm alone on that one. Oh well.

GOATOWL's reply on Aug 24th 2009 12:29pm EDT
Fellas, yes it's that time again... the trophy is up for grabs and as Ryan and Pete well know from last years rainy finale... I still rein as the #1 DSN golfer (Tiger Ned the call me now)... so if you feel you have the nerve to challenge my greatness then all you need to do is show up... right now the best weekends are looking like either Sept 26-27 or Oct 3-4. I feel this year will have to be the best of 2 rounds (or possible two or three 9-hole rounds at sleeping giant next to Ryan's) weather permitting of course... topped off with a poker game to round out the night... even if you're not a golfer we'd still like to have you as this is a “Team Stupid Social Mixer”…. Hope to see you there!!

Cool. People.

Well, then I'll elaborate on my news from a while back -- but not too much, as I made this a public thread. In October, I'll begin work on a two-issue stint for a comic book title from IDW Publishing (they currently handle the comics for Transformers, GI Joe, Angel, 30 Days of Night, Doctor Who, Star Trek, etc). I can't say specifically what I'll be working on until the book is solicited (and it won't be published until March of '10), but I can say my art has been approved by the BBC.

Past that, I've just been trying to pick up all the freelance work I can (which isn't much) as I can't seem to get a 9 to 5 anywhere in the UV. Just gotta make it to October (or more precisely November) and everything will be better. And all the doors will start opening up at that point.

wip wip!Checking in
GOATOWL's reply on Jun 22nd 2009 1:48pm EDT

oMaT's reply on Jun 22nd 2009 10:02am EDT
Actually, I am on the case for the redesign. I know, I know - I'm a slow bastard. Anyway I have several potential themes that I think would work ranging from the very elaborate to the fairly simple. In the next couple days I hope to narrow it down to one or two candidates and then trolld and I can figure out who wins. (Unless he hates all of em.) Suffice to say, progress is being made.

nice Ned. I have experience with DVDFab, it works quite well, although I am into VUSE, a torrent client, which allows you to Download from thePiratebay.org all the AVI files you will ever need. I have seen many of the movies in the theaters, from the comfort of my PS3 and home theater system. by the way, this message will self destruct in 10 seconds

Silly Doug... like always I'm one step ahead of you... Jay, look at Jon's Log from 9/24/08... he has a link he setup for me called "DVDFab Platinum v5.0.9.0"... it should handle your needs with no problem... I use it to put movies on my blackberry but also does DVD to DVD and a host of other functions including avi. conversion... thank Jon-Boy and enjoy!!

I use a program called ConvertXtoDVD, there may be others out there but this one worked to just directly burn some images I had. So far it's worked with every file type I've thrown at it. The demo will add a watermark (that also causes the encoding time to pretty much double). A lot of places try to sell it for $50 but this place had it for $35 if you want to register.

We (including the kids) have been going to Phi Tau so Sarah can see her brothers, as it's the only time anyone we know are ever there. Other than that, those days should be pretty free, and Sarah'll probably be on Xmas vay-kay.

Just got a call from my parents. Apparently Mike Tsai's little sister, Lauren, was killed in a car accident. At 26 she had degrees from Stanford and MIT. Absolutely tragic.
