    You cynics ! I was ask by the Polish Finance Minister to open a Crowd Funding site. seems the no news is a result on no more money. When I get it set up I am authorized rto offer a 50% return on investment unless you are Canadian then it is 40%, the rational being they are more frugal and do not need the money..

    Canadian here, looking for investments in buttons. And single socks, which is bullish at the moment.

    Just pretend the UFO is a choo-choo with a Reichsadler on it.

    How long ago was Kelly's Heroes filmed. and no one has yet found that gold. They could not have gotten it through either line so it is buried with inn 50K of the bank. If the members here could find it we could get "Otto and the Administrators", no, not the rock group , but the ones here all the newest servers they want and invest in that trove of Spitfires.

    Sounds like a plan to me, ( I am also interested in cliches !)

    I'm currently accepting donations to fund the search for the Uboat sunk in the Colorado River. It's rumored to be loaded with loot because the skipper stopped in Las Vegas for shore leave and they reprogrammed their Enigma Machine to crack the odds on games at various casinos.

    Just send me envelopes stuffed with cash.

    And, of course, the Enigma machines didn't have that capability.

    It was reprogrammed, I tell you! The entire story was recently confirmed by an elderly hooker in Laughlin who went on a drunken spree in a rented Hudson with some of the crew before they left to torpedo the Hoover Dam. Unfortunately, they were intercepted by a flotilla of USN destroyers that were hiding in Lake Mead. The claims of UFO involvement are just silly, so discount that part.

    We're all going to feel pretty bloody silly when someone does find 100 solid gold Nazi spitfires & Adolf's nudie mag collection in a buried amber train station one day...

    Hmmm, the sub would be in good shape. Maybe we could raise it and use it to attack a Iowa-class BB on its way to Hawaii?

    I thought they did some scans through the ground and determined there was nothing there but a train?

    Nope, they did some scans and the ground penetrating radar said there were layers of soil that had been disturbed. IIRC some of those images were "enhanced for clarity."
