If Ryan Fox can play that fucking fast with the Claret Jug hanging in the balance, I never want to see another 18-handicapper lining up his triple bogey putt from seven angles ever again.
As a 77-year-old Florida woman is mistakenly issued vulgar vanity license plates, we are reminded yet again that history repeats itself, first as @SeinfeldTV, then as farce. @JerrySeinfeld#assman#thefusillijerry
Greatest sentence ever written: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Today in 1863, Colonel Joshua Chamberlain saves the Union flank at Gettysburg, leading a downhill bayonet charge by the 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment. He was awarded the Medal of Honor thirty years after the fact.
All major corrections in Gold during secular bull markets follow a clear pattern.
Gold just completed its 5th significant drawdown (you could also count 2020 & 2021).
With one exception, they cluster tightly in both time and magnitude:
1973: 28% in 5 months
1975: 45% in 20 months (outlier)
2006: 23% in 5 months
2008: 30% in 7 months
2020: 20% in 7 months
2022: 22% in 6.5 months
Current: 27% in 5 months
The typical correction: 23%–30% over 5–7 months.
1975–1976 is the only true outlier and today looks nothing like that period.
The worst is over.
How giraffe coat patterns differ across Africa.
Not all giraffes have the same coat pattern. Across Africa, different populations developed distinct markings that often reveal where they come from. Reticulated giraffes have large geometric patches outlined by bright white lines, while Masai giraffes are known for their irregular, jagged spots. Other populations, including Rothschild’s, Angolan, West African, and South African giraffes, each have their own recognizable pattern.
These differences evolved over thousands of years as geography limited contact between populations. Rivers, deserts, forests, and vast distances allowed giraffes to develop unique appearances through genetics and natural selection. While no two giraffes share the exact same pattern, each population has a distinctive regional style. Modern genetic research even suggests that giraffes may represent several separate species rather than a single one.
Neighborhood billionaire running ~$75b goes on TV to raise capital from bearish investors. Gets laughed at by “TV Personalities.” Gets last laugh. Video passed around as inflows accelerate all weekend. Brilliant marketing…
