    duh, but's unlikely you'd be on a trip without your laptop.

    On the contrary: primary reason for having a smartphone is to be able
    to dispense with lugging laptops about on trips :-) .

    Agreed. But those years with no inflation during them are *long* gone :-) .

    > ... our Fed keeps it low

    What "it" you talkin' 'bout, boy? Our Fed keeps *interest* rates low,
    but puts no curbs whatsoever on inflation, as measured by the price of
    milk, bread, beef, wheat, pasta, tomatoes, apples, oranges, corn, beer,
    or gasoline, or by the property tax my locality assesses on the house I
    live in -- all of these have doubled in the course of the past 5 years.

    Not to mention, the Oxtard will probably be hanging on every word
    Comrade Bernanke will be uttering during his public Q&A tomorrow
    during his hard sell that we are not in an inflationary cycle.

    Funny thing is, this is the first this has *ever* been done by a
    sitting Fed Reserve Chairman. My guess "Bernanke's Bull" will likely
    be based on home prices and consumer electronics being down, but he's
    hoping that the public will buy this as proof of no inflation despite
    food, clothing, and fuel being up (the bulk of the economy) between
    8%-18% from last year.

    But then Oxtard lives in this rosy Apple world and wears green-tinted
    sunglasses.

    I sleep soundly with a .45 Kimber under my head and a light sleeping dog at
    my feet. If anyone intrudes, the Great State of Florida EXPECTS me to kill
    them.

    My advice for the future; Get a gun that uses common ammo. Acquire a taste
    for dogs, cats, rats, human and anything else that walks, crawls or
    flies..or dies.

    Oxfart can call the authorities - if his iPhone is still working.
