Anniversary Hat Contest

Thursday, May 17, 2012 at 8:01 am

As hard as it is to believe, this site will have it's 1st birthday on 6/14/12. Time sure goes fast when you're getting the snot beat out of you, day after day.

It's been a crazy 11 months but today is not the day for a retrospective. Today IS the day to start a new Hat Contest! Same rules as before. Submit your guess for the closing Comex price on Thursday, June 14 for the July12 silver contract and the August12 gold. Each winner will receive a genuine, 100% authentic and autographed Turd Ferguson hat. If any lucky Turdite manages to win both categories, I'll even throw in an original mint "silver Keiser" for good measure.

So, go for it! Enter your guesses in the comments section of this thread. I'll leave it open for entries through the Comex open tomorrow (8:20 am EDT) if you want to take a look at today's action before committing. Remember, all new Turdites have their initial comments sent into the "moderation queue" for approval. So, if you don't see your entry show up immediately, do not despair. Just give the mods and I a little time to find it and publish it.

I'm going to be out most of the day today so I won't be able to post a new thread until at least mid-afternoon. Please continue to use the "sticky" thread at the top of the homepage as your discussion/open thread. In the meantime, the nice rally overnight was derailed by euro weakness earlier today. Oh well. At least we are up a little off of yesterday's lows. Baby steps, everyone. To begin with, we need to stem the tide of the spec shorts. Then, we can reverse and squeeze them.

Have a fun day! TF

Hey Pining, I work cheaper than Holliday. I'll fix it for you for one of these:

Rigged game?

Submitted by El Gordo on May 17, 2012 - 10:07am.

If I recall, the last time we played this game Mr. Turd single-handedly crashed the PM markets at the last minute so his hand picked friends could win. We still don't know if it was something as simple as taking a trip to Sams Wholesale or if there was something more nefarious involved. Anyway. like the fool I am, I'll play it straight and present my estimates based only on my analysis of the facts and not including some last minute hanky-panky.

Pining...Mod Washington just cut the legs out from under me on that one

Damn... and I was going to up the ante to one of these, just because.

Have a great day everyone, I'm going to hide behind a tumbleweed or lay low on a rooftop. (Codeword for Saloon)

Prognostication...the Mystic Arts

Submitted by Be Prepared on May 17, 2012 - 10:18am.

I have peered into the mystical ages and have cast my augury stones upon the symbols of time and space....

I have consulted the greater heavens to see the astrological alignments to know how Jupiter and Mars shall dance their force upon the witching hour...

In deep mediation with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, I have fathomed the edges of reality and found the center of enlightenment...

With my 6th Chakra open.... and the universe pouring through.... these numbers have appeared out of the foggy rivers to reveal themselves to me...
