As goldbugs go Yosemite Sam seems more grounded in reality than Ron Paul.

Cicadidae has much more of a "hot geek" quality.

GREAT IDEA! And when Mr. Paul dies, the mantle of currency will pass to his son ("Dear LIttle One") and be known as "Rands". (They will irreverently be called "Randies" on wonkette.com and elsewhere in the future banned-stream-media.)

Everybody knows we blew the gold on cocaine and hookers in the 80s. Then borrowed started borrowing from our friends ("I swear I'll pay you back, man"), then finally from our enemies ("I swear I'll pay you back, man"). Our only hope now is that Lindsay Lohan turns us away from the darkness. So, no worries.

"There is a reason to be suspicious and even if you are not suspicious why wouldn’t you have an audit?" Where have I heard this logic before? IF I WANT TO SEE YOUR GOLD OR BIRTH CERTIFICATE OR, I DON'T KNOW, UNDERWEAR, YOU HAVE TO SHOW IT TO ME RIGHT NOW. Alas, PsycGirl was taken when I signed up...but PsycWench was not!

Wasn't all the gold was minted into solid gold Ameros? That is <i>The</i> preferred medium of exchange for all fine Wonkette merchandise. I believe they are also used at the tollbooths on the NAFTA Superhighway.

Pretty sure the gold is being held in a bank guarded by three Panzer tanks. Now if <strike>Lt. Kelly</strike> Paul cuts Oddball, Crapgame, Cowboy and Moriaty in on the action, they can bust into the bank and then be across the Swiss border before anyone's the wiser. The Wehrmacht may try to stop them, but <strike>Lt. Kelly</strike> Paul will find a way around that.
