    I have always wondered what SHTF really means. Can some stacker please enlighten me.?? First I thought it meant when Silver Hits Thirty Five. Then Silver HitsTThe Forties. Maybe it's when Silver Hits The Fifties. But stuff it all, I'm going for Silver Hits Two Fifty. Yeehaa ...... to the moon!!!! Signed .... Shiny Highway To Fortune.

    FUBAR = fvcked up beyond all recognition

    with all the S's and F's flying around you'd have thought SS had caught Tourettes and some responsible adult will tell us to mind our P's and Q's

    Heres one that had me for a while... SMSF, I thought it was some silver buying stratagy I was never going to be able to share with Nan the "Sheet Mother Sheet Trucker" stratagy but alas it was nothing so foul. It ended up meaning "Smart Money Sidesteps Fiat", so there ya go :p
