Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[Train Guy]

OT I remember back, musta been 80-81 when gold was $800 an ounce. Me and some buddies were talking about if we could make a living panning for gold up in the mountains. That was back when $150 was a weeks wage. So we figured all we needed was to find 1/4 an ounce a week to make some money and pay our expenses. A measley 1/20 an ounce a day. Only 1/160 an ounce an hour. We knew nothing about it and were trying to figure out how much 1/20 of ounce would be. <g> We never did try it. Probably would have been to fun to go up there for a weekend and screw around.
