Well, sure I will give you all a testimonial.
Upon seeing your commercials on TV, I realized we, I mean I realized I had some of that gold right here in my own house.
You see, my great, great, great, great, granddad was in the Civil War. I think he was one of the guys who took care of general Lee’s horses. Did you know about a million horses were killed during the Civil War? Sounds to me like it should be called the Civil and Horse Wars. My father said his father told him they even had to care for Oxen at times! Isn’t that wild!
Anyways.
Lee apparently gave my ancestor a solid gold knife holder for his belt. Some southern Governor had given it to him. General Robert E. Lee was so grateful to my family for having kept his horses in such good condition.
I grew up with that knife shield thing locked inside a gun case that my granddad had, and latter gave to my father near his death. I figured I would pass it on to my own son someday, but since I don’t have one and hardy ever even have a date, I figured this was my ancestors way of handing me a gift horse in the mouth.
I’m sure he would have approved of my decision to cash that history in for something useful. No point in being all sentimental over something locked up and out of reach. I figure my grandpa, and the grandpa that got this gift would be fine with me giving myself one. Keeping it all in the family so to speak.
I cut the knife shield up to fit in the envelope. Gold cut easy with a hack saw, but some of it did kinda melt into the blade teeth, so I picked that out with a pin I had a poster of Toby Keith pinned up with. Don’t worry. I put the pin back.
Well, I stuck gold you all, just like you said. I got $500 from old gramps, and that was enough for me to get this new grill set.
It’s what some people call a chick magnet. Maybe now I’ll make my own ancestor and I can pass my grill onto them. If their mouth is the same size, it might even insure ancestors for generations to come!
What do you think?
Here is the photo of my brand spanken shinny new grill. I polish it and what not to keep it in good shape. After all, we’re talking about history here.
My photo is below. I put it down there to be a surprise. I bet the chicks will be surprised some day real soon…

I’m going to put these photo’s in the case where the old grandpa’s was with the knife and all.
In homage to him, I’m even going to make one of these look oldish. I’m sure my ancestors would be real proud of what I’ve done.
I’d do it again if I had more dead relatives worth anything, I’m tellen’ ya.

My grandchildren might have to get rid of a few teeth in front like me, but I’m sure that is a sacrifice anyone would be happy to make, just to have this incredible twinkle for each and every word. How could anyone not pay attention to me now that everything I say sparkles like the sun!
Thanks again Gold-R-US. You truly make dreams come true. I encourage everyone to melt down their heirlooms today, but don’t get a grill like mine. I’d rather stay one of a kind.
Gold-R-US Rocks! Like Toby!

I’m glad to give a testimonial to you guys.
My story came from my mom. Her grandmother gave her this ring that was from England. Seems that her great grandfather was a great carpenter, when carpenters still cared and stuff. I don’t know how the England connection came about, but that grandfather was commissioned to do this huge carpentry piece for the Queen of England. This was supposed to be a surprise, so most no one knew about it. As the story goes, that grandfather finished this big piece of furniture in Chicago, only to hear that the guy who commissioned it died and no one knew about it.
Well, almost no one. About a year later, after that granddad had tried to sell the piece anyway to the Royal Family, they thought he was some kind of nut or con man. Nevertheless, a year later, some kind of diplomat or something showed up at that granddads door with a gift. That gift was a ring allegedly had by one of King Henry’s wives or something like that. Unfortunately, the stone was gone, but there was engraving that said to whomever from your King Blah, blah, blah.
I had seen a TV special on PBS about this King Henry the 8 character, and I hated him. I could not believe fate handed me a chance to get back at that creep. Suddenly this commercial comes up; melt down your waisting away gold for some real money at Gold-R-US, we enable dreams to come true, and boy did they ever!
I sent that ring in, not sure that snake of a creepy jerk didn’t give his wives fake jewelry or something. $250.00 in a check! Now who is the fool old King sleaze ball! Guess who got the last laugh over your sorry a*s!
I had been eying one of those really cool foreign door pieces. It seemed only fitting to bring back some wood over this whole thing.
It is a shame that in India, Pakistan or wherever they are taking whole towns apart to fit into the modern world. The people cannot wait to discard their own old history! It is really, really sad. I’m glad to have salvaged this door or window from the import store. At least somebody cares for their history and architecture if they don’t. What is the big hurry to get plastic and steel anyway?
I don’t have anywhere to put this that works yet, so I keeping it in the attic for safe keeping. I could not have gotten this without your help Gold-R-US, you guys are really doing the whole world a favor. We get to save what is worth saving, and getting rid of the bad vibe stuff the creeps have handed down after having their way and all.
Love you Gold-R-US!
Hey Henry! Kiss my but! Loser!
Thanks again. Another happy camper who struck gold.

CAN I HAVE A CUP OF $15.00 GAS?
Tags: $15 a gallon gas, big government, due unto others before they..., free enterprise, government, government responsibility, inflation, it's a gas, predatory interest, social commentary, the economics of opportunism
Someone with a gas card deal replied on another blog of mine that we cannot hope the government will fix our gas woes. So I wonder who will? $15.00 gas has been mentioned in the media.
Perhaps we will form citizen bands to pass gas from the refinery in cups down the interstates. We could all stand a few feet apart to cut the transportation cost. We could also get genetically engineered to siphon Hydrogen out of the air with gills so we could afford to stand there. Reverse umbrellas could act as water gathering devises so we can have a cool drink as we pass the cups along.
I feel this is more sensible than letting government, big government, charge us or whatever it does for its services. Unless government is killing people or locking them up it’s of no use. Sure. I believe that! It is everyone for themselves unless wealth’s way of privileged life is in question. Then we are all in this together, thank you that big government. Calling all suckers. Get ready to syphon.
Are you on-board?
I’m selling oil resistant shoes for those inevitable drips.
If all goes well I will be rolling in money, become a big success and not worry over energy cost. I will have the last laugh. Then I will make shares in my corporation public. Wow! Your pain will be my gain! Hurray pain, hurray! I suppose I will be pro pain then.
