Humor While We Wait
Sabickford: I'm not saying it's hot outside but two Hobbits just threw a ring into my backyard
Warning- going to sleep on Sunday will cause Monday
I want to start juicing but I'm hesitant, I don't know how to juice Tacos
I've finally lost my mind. If found Don't bother to return it. It wasn't working properly anyway.
For the first time in forever, I decided to go shoot some pool tonight. You should have seen the look on the face of those swimmers.

Mot: To emphasize his point he said to another guest; "You're a teacher, Bonnie ---
The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life. One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education. He argued, “What’s a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in life was to become a teacher?”
He reminded the other dinner guests what they say about teachers, “Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.”
To emphasize his point he said to another guest; “You’re a teacher, Bonnie. Be honest. What do you make?” Bonnie, who had a reputation for honesty and frankness replied, “You want to know what I make?” She paused for a second, then began.

“I make kids sit through 40 minutes of class time when their parents can't make them sit for five minutes without an iPod, Game Cube or movie rental.” She paused again and looked at each and every person at the table, and continued, “You want to know what I make?”
“I make kids wonder.”
“I make them question.”
“I make them apologize and mean it.”
“I make them have respect and take responsibility for their actions.”
“I teach them to write and then I make them write. Keyboarding isn’t everything.”
“I make them read, read, read.”
“I make them show all their work in math. They use their God-given brain, not the man-made calculator.”
“I make my students from other countries learn everything they need to know in English while preserving their unique cultural identity.”
“I make my classroom a place where all my students feel safe.”
“I make my students stand, placing their hand over their heart to say the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag, one nation under God, because we live in the United States of America.”
“I make them understand that if they use the gifts they were given, work hard, and follow their hearts, they can succeed in life.”
Pausing one last time, Bonnie continued, “Then, when people try to judge me by what I make, with me knowing money isn’t everything, I can hold my head up high and pay no attention because they are ignorant. You want to know what I make?”
“I make a difference.”
“What do you make, Mr. CEO?”
Mot: Yet Another!! --- Now You KNows!! ~~~ from Mot of Course!! ~~~
The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly odd number.
Why was that gauge used?
Well, because that's the way they built them in England, and English engineers designed the first US railroads.
Why did the English build them like that?
Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the wagon tramways, and that's the gauge they used.
So, why did 'they' use that gauge then?
Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that same wheel spacing.
Why did the wagons have that particular odd wheel spacing?
Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break more often on some of the old, long distance roads in England . You see, that's the spacing of the wheel ruts.
So who built those old rutted roads?
Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England ) for their legions. Those roads have been used ever since.
And what about the ruts in the roads?
Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to match or run the risk of destroying their wagon wheels. Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome , they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing. Therefore the United States standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot. Bureaucracies live forever.
So the next time you are handed a specification/procedure/process and wonder 'What horse's ass came up with this?', you may be exactly right. Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses. (Two horses' asses.)
Now, the twist to the story:
When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah .
The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit fatter, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site. The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains, and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel. The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses' behinds.
So, a major Space Shuttle design feature, of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system, was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse's ass. And you thought being a horse's ass wasn't important?
Ancient horse's asses control almost everything......

Pimpy There is a huge summit. I was excited about it. I was hoping to hear some great things about it and of course al my hopes came true...there's a lot of information going on about the summit and it's success...there was a lot of great counties, 9 in total...what they were doing was really wishing Iraq luck and they all support Iraq ready to be on their own...finally have their own sovereignty reinstated. All of them are agreeing to support Iraq...They support the White Paper reforms and they all agreed on different forms of trade and security and education...they whole 9 years. That's what I really was hoping for...

Carter: Does anybody else think the can still get kicked down the road again with everything going on?
Kaseyko1: Carter, I don't think the can will be kicked again; I think we are truly at the end of the road! I'm hopeful we'll see something by the end of the week; there's too many good things that have happened & Iraq & CBI are doing a lot of talking about what they're doing; can only mean good things.
MountainMole: The kicking of the can. The can can only be kicked until it’s no longer a can or they come to the end of the road. Both have occurred IMHO
TNDOC: Mountain mole, I agree. They try kicking the can again, it is going to bounce right back to them.
Kaseyko1: Things have never looked so good for us like what we are seeing right now!

Tishwash: Nassar Al-Rubaie: The just distribution of the wealth of the Iraqis is the one that unites them
The leader of the Sadrist movement, Nassar al-Rubaie, confirmed, on Monday, that the federal system in Iraq is the best solution in the way of governance in Iraq.
Al-Rubaie said, during his participation in the "Al-Rafidain Forum for Dialogue" and followed by "Nass" (August 31, 2021): "Any people of multiple sects and ethnicities, especially in Iraq, have become partisan pluralism, which is an ethnic and sectarian representation, as partisan pluralism has strengthened that The problem is that she takes this or that identity.
He pointed out that "Iraq needs a political will to build a strong modern state that fulfills the hopes of the Iraqi people, and is based on a fair distribution, because the unified for the Iraqis is the equitable distribution of wealth."
He pointed out that "the political process in Iraq has gone through several controversies and the regime in 2003 fell as a result of the occupation of legislators from the United Nations."
He continued, "The dialectic of occupation and liberation continues until the moment, instead of discussing progress in the field of development and news," noting that "the mechanism in which the constitution was written was dependent on the transitional government, and the greatest harm in it is that the occupation does not exit without the presence of a constitution and a legitimate government."
Al-Rubaie stressed, "The constitution needs to explain many of its paragraphs instead of jurisprudence, and the Federal Court is concerned with this matter."
And he touched on the oil and gas law, stressing that "if the oil and gas law was approved, it would achieve sustainable development in all sectors in Iraq, and would put an end to the trespassers on the country's wealth." link

"Dinarland-The Land of Confuse-Zim" by Dr. Dinar
.Dinarland - The Land Of Confuse-Zim By Dr. Dinar
Well, surprise, surprise, surprise!
Here we are, on the verge of yet another Holiday shopping season and we're still sitting here, broker than broke.
Without an RV.
Without a completed GCR.
Still unsure the GCR process has actually started processing.
Sure, we've hear a thousand times the process has started.
But, as with everything else in Dinarland, as it stands, that's just another unprovable rumor.
How can that be.
Dinarland - The Land Of Confuse-Zim By Dr. Dinar
Well, surprise, surprise, surprise!
Here we are, on the verge of yet another Holiday shopping season and we're still sitting here, broker than broke.
Without an RV.
Without a completed GCR.
Still unsure the GCR process has actually started processing.
Sure, we've hear a thousand times the process has started.
But, as with everything else in Dinarland, as it stands, that's just another unprovable rumor.
How can that be.
Who in their right mind ever imagined we'd still be here.
Three quarters of the way through yet another year.
And might I add, the weirdest year on record.
A year that, like so many others that came before, began with such promise, only to be left with that same ol' Dinarja Vu feeling we've been dealing with for the past decade plus.
Yep, back at the end of 2010, throughout Dinarland all we heard was we'd never get to 2011 without "cashin' out our dee-nars".
Oh how wrong they were.
And how wrong we were for not knowing how wrong they were.
And to make matters worse, back then all we had to concern ourselves with was the simple RV of the IQD.
That's it.
Nothin' crazy about that.
How much easier could it be.
Wham, Bam, Thank You #43!
Even if they didn't originally intend for the RV to include you and me, which shouldn't come as any big surprise to any of us playing along, by that point they begrudgingly rewrote the rule book, thereby allowing us to play along.
Say hello to the new, renewed & reimproved #13303.
And Thank You too, Dr. Shabinabibi.
Most of us are well aware of your boasting of Iraq's ability to support a $15 to $17 fantasy rate and all the reasons behind your making such an insanely unrealistic statement.
And how your statement has been taken completely out of context for far too many years.
Having said that, those of us living in the real world will gladly take our $3.41 and bow out gracefully.
Off to the various Auto Dealerships and Zillow we will go.
On our way to making our dreams come true.
But hang on there fellow Dinarians, not so fast.
Turns out there was something else in the works.
Much more "stuff" lurking behind the curtain than we were aware of.
At least not at that time anyway.
It was around that time we began to hear the rumors of the "Rise of the Dong".
Say what!?!
Now we have Vietnam involved in all this?
Whose crazy idea was that anyway!
Talk about a surprise.
They quickly explained it away, saying China was going to move all of their manufacturing to nearby Vietnam, thereby creating more "living space" for their ever expanding population.
Who could argue with that kind of logic.
Not to mention all of the newly discovered precious metals lying dormant under all the Vietnamese rice fields.
Talk about Fields of Dreams.
That stuff couldn't fit any better into this storyline if they tried.
Almost as if they made it up.
But they wouldn't make this stuff up, would they?
Nah. Not even if they could.
Do I even need to mention all of the as yet unfracked oil sitting just offshore, awaiting future fracking.
Who knew.
Believe it or not, it all made total sense.
Which, when you think about it, is more than confusing.
At that point, as it is now, making sense was anything but the "norm" in Dinarland.
So that alone was plenty crazy.
Which fits right in with the rest of this scheme.
But that was pretty much the last of the craziness we heard about the VND.
Well, besides the rates of course.
Don't even get me going on the insanity of all the rate rumors.
You'll think I'm crazy.
Street rates.
Market rates.
Sovereign rates.
Contract rates.
And don't even get me going on the whole Demand-Your-Own-Rates thing.
Since then, the VND has calmed down quite a bit, yet remains a "regular" in the first basket.
No questions asked, just another crazily concocted piece of the GCR puzzle.
Sure, they said it would get crazy at the end and it was definitely getting awfully crazy at that time, what with numerous people saying this would be our last broke weekend, week, after week, after crazy-filled week.
Therefore, it must finally be the end.
Right?
After all, it couldn't get much crazier than it already was, could it?
Well, not so quick there, Currencyhopper.
It was about to get a whole lot crazier.
Enter the Zim.
Aka; Level 3 Crazy.
That crazy, kooky, silkscreened on 20# standard office copy paper, festooned with "I Promise To Pay Whomever Is Crazy Enough To Believe In This Lotsofzero's Stuff..." in the upper left hand corner, Triple Rock covered, multi-purpose Monopo-money.
And heeeeerrre we go again!
Cue the crazy rumor factory, workin' overtime on the late shift.
Highest numerical value in the history of currency. Check!
Demonitized back in 2009, currently sold as a "collectible", recently "reimagined" as a Bond. Check!
A James Bond.
Shaken, as well as stirred.
Zero's on, zero's off, a multiplyerin' we will go. Check-mate!
You name it, rumor upon rumor, the Zim is awash in it.
The only thing we haven't seen (yet) is an actual photo showing an Alien Clone wearing a gold tie having recently arrived "on planet" from his home on Mars, with his "to go" bag securely by his side, full of Zim notes and receipts, heading off in an electric-powered Uber, on his way to an Exchange Center somewhere in Area 51.
And believe me, I won't be the least bit shocked when we do see it.
Or at least hear about it anyway.
After all, we've pretty much seen and heard everything else.
The one semi-consistent rumor in all this, having been shouted from the rooftops for the past decade plus, is that this RV/GCR thing really is real.
And that it will happen.
And that, when it happens, it will happen "suddenly".
As in one second it won't be there, and without any prior warning whatsoever, poof, there it will be.
That kind of suddenly.
Any day.
Any time.
Almost as if they have it all planned out.
Which, to be honest, I highly doubt they do.
I think they'd like to think they have it all planned out and that everything is working out according to their plan.
But honestly, at this point I think they're pretty much just wingin' it.
Attacking each day's obstacles as they come.
And right along with that statement is that this so called "suddenly" will happen when we least expect it.
Least expect it?
Seriously!?!
How is that even possible.
At this point I think all of Dinarland is fully expecting it.
Each and every second of every minute of every day.
And night.
We're even expecting the unexpected, just in case they try to slide one by us on the down low.
Like, totally unexpected or something.
Yep, basically we've got all the bases covered.
So that when it finally does happen, and I firmly believe it will, it will happen on somebody's watch.
Perhaps they should change "when we least expect it" to "when we least believe it".
By that I mean it could very well happen tomorrow, but we've heard that so many times that 99% of us no longer believe tomorrow even exists.
Let alone that this RV/GCR thing will happen tomorrow.
Yeah, if there is a tomorrow, the sun will more than likely come out somewhere but the RV/GCR, that's still up in the air.
Aloft among the great unknowns.
And believe me, it will take quite a bit of convincing to get us to believe otherwise.
Hopefully, after having given it some time, allowing it to sink in, we'll all get the surprise of our lives, shouting "GAAA-LEE... SHA-ZIM!" as we exit one of over 6,500 Exchange Centers, none of which are located any further than an hour's drive away from our drone-surveillanced homes.
In spite of all that, I still believe it's not a matter of "if" but of "when".
So above all else, be sure to enjoy the ride.
No matter how crazy it gets from here on out.
And remember, the dronified "eye in the sky" will be watching you all the way from your home to the Exchange Center.
So be sure to leave extra early for your scheduled appointment and be certain to obey all traffic laws.
Last thing we need are any last minute surprises.
Other than those unexpected ones we're totally expecting.
Hang in there folks, this ride's about to get a little bumpy and we don't wanna be caught by surprise.
Kindly,

"Enough Talk...Let's See Some Action!!!" by Dr. Dinar
.Thank you Dr. Dinar!!!
Enough Talk... Let's See Some Action! by Dr. Dinar
I don't know about you but I'm pretty much done.
To the point where I'm done hearing it's done.
As in everything's done.
Done... duh duh duh DONE!
Like, really done.
Done to the point where there's nothing left to do.
Nothing left to do because it truly is done.
Thank you Dr. Dinar!!!
Enough Talk... Let's See Some Action! by Dr. Dinar
I don't know about you but I'm pretty much done.
To the point where I'm done hearing it's done.
As in everything's done.
Done... duh duh duh DONE!
Like, really done.
Done to the point where there's nothing left to do.
Nothing left to do because it truly is done.
That's definitely closer to my definition of the word done.
Admittedly, I like everything I eat to be well done.
Even to the point of refusing to eat Sushi unless it's well done.
So, perhaps I'm a bit more demanding when it comes to the true definition of the word done.
Nevertheless, it shouldn't be all that difficult to determine the difference between done and close to done but not actually done, therefore it's not done.
First place to start might be with the persistent rumors continually permeating all throughout Dinarland.
Rumors of everything being done.
How long have we been hearing that.
Seems to me, according to my Dinarland calendar, it's been done for at least the last few years.
And yet, here we are.
Not done.
Would we be hearing all these rumors if indeed everything truly were done?
Not likely.
On second thought, we might still be drowning in rumors but chances are they'd have a more post-process, after the GCR kind of feel to them as opposed to the same ol' this is our week or it's gonna pop this Saturday night or we're only expecting to do one more call, our Celebration call kinda rumors.
So please, don't get me wrong.
I'm not expecting Dinarland to go completely rumorless overnight.
i mean, let's not get crazy here.
But wouldn't it be nice to hear a different batch of rumors for a change.
An extremely welcome change to say the least.
Well, I for one would certainly love it anyway.
Even better yet, I'd enjoy seeing that it's done based solely on the number of zero's in my bank account.
That's the kind of proof I'd enjoy seeing.
As it is now I'm still unable to make a trip through the In-N-Out drive thru and order a Double Double with grilled onions, well done, and have any means of paying for it when it's done cookin', all wrapped up and ready for release.
Until that day comes, it's still not done.
And while I'm on the subject of phrases I can hardly wait to never hear again, let's start with it CAN happen today.
Sheesh, give it a rest.
As far as I'm concerned it could've happened any day over the past one thousand days.
Yes, I'm more than aware that they needed to reinvent the current banking system as well as numerous other changes required to release the GCR.
But you get my drift.
Enough with the talk.
I'm ready for some action.
I want to know it WILL happen!
As in today.
Or any other day ending in "y".
Even better yet, I'd love to hear that IT HAS HAPPENED!
As in past tense, check your emails, make your appointment, grab your "To Go" bag and get to the Exchange Center ASAP!
Is that too much to ask.
Just a factual confirmation of completion, in whatever form it comes.
Be it an email, a barrage of posts all throughout Dinarland or a Piper Cub draggin' a giant banner across the sky with a 1-800-CALLNOW number plastered on it.
At this point, I'm not about to be picky.
I'm open to most any form of communication.
Make it a fortune cookie.
Why not a clever saying on a Starbucks cup.
Heck, at this point I'll settle for a homing pigeon with a Post-it note taped to its leg.
What I'm trying to say is I'm flexible.
Whatever it takes, just send me a for real signal of this thing having reached the end of the line.
Of actually reaching a conclusion.
Actually being concluded.
As in DONE.
Talk is cheap.
No more rumors.
We don't need any more stinkin' rumors, regardless of whose super secret source supplies 'em.
We need action.
Action, leading to results.
Results resulting in our receiving our exchange instructions.
I've pretty much had enough of the boy crying wolf.
To the point where I'm ready to sic the wolf on him and let him eat, just to get the kid to shut up.
As I mentioned earlier, enough already.
We've lived through the rumor stage of this adventure for far too long.
It's time to begin the action phase.
As we've always been told, actions speak louder than rumors.
And after all, isn't that exactly what a rumor is.
A bunch of words lined up in the form of a sentence, completely void of all action.
In other words, just words.
And words don't pay the bills.
So to whomever it may be that's supposedly working feverishly on completing the GCR, forever claiming we're close, please feel free to call it "close enough" and dispatch the "GO" email ASAP!
And to those out there rumored to still be throwin' wrenches, please feel free to close the lid on your toolboxes and call it a day.
You have to know when enough is enough.
And let's face it, enough is enough.
We all know this GCR thing is going to happen eventually, the rest of the world has committed to it.
Why not do the right thing by all involved and go ahead and release it.
Then we can all move on to something much more interesting.
Like life beyond Dinarland.
Hang in there folks.
According to the latest rumors, we're right on top of this thing and it has to happen soon.
If not, the entire global economy will crash.
And supposedly they don't want that to happen.
Or do they.
Who knows what they want.
Who even knows who "they" are.
Chances are they don't even know who they are, nor what they want.
Maybe that's why they can't seem to get anything accomplished.
They have no idea what it is they're supposed to be doing.
This thing is so compartmentalized that they forgot to create the "GO Signal" Department.
At this point, anything's possible.
Anyway, don't let the rumors get you down.
Just do your best to hang in there, no matter what it takes.
Kindly,
Dr. Dinar

"Send in the Replacements" By Dr. Dinar
.Send In The Replacements! by Dr. Dinar
Let's face it... we've all done it.
At least to some extent.
By "it" I'm referring to fudging just the slightest bit on a job application.
Or four.
Adding just a lil' "extra" somewhere on our resumés.
Whether it be delivering pizza's or piloting the Space Shuttle, it never hurts to be the best you can be.
Or even better than that, if possible.
Even if it's only on paper.
If not, our work history would be exceedingly boring.

Whether it be delivering pizza's or piloting the Space Shuttle, it never hurts to be the best you can be.
Or even better than that, if possible.
Even if it's only on paper.
If not, our work history would be exceedingly boring.
Which is almost always the case, even with the occasional "embellishment" added on
Even if it's only eliminating a job here or there along the way, simply to portray a bit more stability in your career choices.
Nobody wants any "gaps" in their work history.
There's nothing wrong with climbing the ladder.
Matter of fact, last I checked that type of improvement is encouraged.
It's the falling off of the ladder, followed immediately by the tumbling all the way back down to the ground that isn't always the best to put a spotlight on.
What's the harm in a little polishing here 'n there.
I mean, I highly doubt anyone out there is completely innocent
Regardless of where you sit on the pay scale, top to bottom, nobody's immune to wanting to make a great first impression.
And after all, you only get one chance to make a great first impression.
So it's always best to make it a great one.
Unfortunately the whole over promise and under deliver thing can come back to haunt you, despite your best intentions.
Or in the case of us Dinarians, perhaps it's the actions (or rather, the inactions) of some overpromising under-deliverers behind the curtains that are causing us all the harm.
The folks that obviously lied on their job applications and yet, be it through attrition, good fortune, family ties or whatever, were somehow able to secure their jobs anyway.
Yes, I'm referring to all the fine folks supposedly working feverishly behind the scenes to get this whole GCR thing wrapped up.
Signed, sealed, and delivered.
Let's face it, we all see it.
At this point it's extremely obvious they aren't in any way qualified to do the job.
At least not the job as it was assigned to them.
If that weren't the case, it only stands to reason the job would have been completed quite some time ago.
Not that they were or weren't qualified some 35 years ago when the process first began but it pretty much goes without saying that they're extremely underqualified for the current task at hand.
In all fairness, perhaps they weren't given the option to opt-out along the way.
Maybe their contribution to the GCR was simply assigned to them as another part of their daily duties.
Type this, file that, and oh yeah, completely recreate as well as restructure the entire global banking system before you head home today.
Who knows.
Chances are, after all this time they probably can't remember either.
Have they intentionally been endlessly dragging their feet, all in an effort to create job security?
Or simply perfecting their wrench throwing abilities, all in hopes of keeping their Cornhole skills on point.
Whatever the case may be, they've certainly had more than plenty of time to get this thing done.
And to date, all efforts resulting in a big nothing.
Even with the earlier eight year pause-in-processing-progress, they've still had the past four years to more than make up for lost time.
To at least show some sign of progress in processing of the process.
Yet, here we sit, once again presumably progressless.
Basically broke & beyond befuddled.
Sound familiar?
Well, it should.
After all, it's the same feeling we've had each and every month for the past fifteen years.
How could we have been so delusional as to fall for it yet again.
To fall for the endless "It's happening tomorrow's".
For the "they want us out there shopping up a storm " rumor redundancy.
The one thing in all of this constant confusium that brings me just the slightest peace of mind is the knowing that I'm not alone.
That we're not alone.
Alone in our feeling of having been decidedly duped.
And if we feel taken, can you imagine how the HR peeps that hired these incompetent folks must feel.
I'll bet they aren't all that happy either.
How could they be.
They were hired to do a job.
They've had more than enough time to get it accomplished, and they've failed.
And might I add, miserably at that.
If any of us had been as inept in our daily duties we'd have been terminated many years ago.
And I'm sure you'll agree, rightfully so.
Which begs the question, how did these people get hired in the first place.
Was there an RV/GCR Job Fair?
If so, I didn't get the memo.
Keep in mind when all these supposedly outstanding individuals were brought on board to complete their assigned duties, online job search giants such as Indoubt, Monstrosity, and Linked Out were nowhere to be found.
Nope, they, along with the world wide interwebs, had yet to be created.
In those days the hiring process likely involved numerous hand-written applications, hand-typed resumés, copious amounts of Cover Sheets, culminating in numerous nerve wracking face to face interviews.
And for the fortunate few that made it through, surviving the interview process, resulting in a win, combined with a "Please report to Karen McFiddlebuster in HR at 9am Monday morning" goodbye, followed by a quick handshake, and they were off.
Excitedly on their way home to iron their upcoming week's workwear and prepare for their magical future in the IT world to unfold.
As time passed, somehow these people managed to rise up through the ranks of the officially employed employees.
Not too sure exactly where they were first employed, but logic says it had to be somewhere semi important.
Which leads me to wonder how, if they did indeed fudge a bit on their resumés, how then were they able to reach the heights needed to be considered for such hugely important tasks as completing the GCR global redo.
That had to take some doing.
Or quite a bit of the ol' "it's not what you know as much as it is who you know" going on.
That's not to say there wasn't also a bit of luck involved along the way.
People quitting, leaving with little warning, creating openings that needed to be filled last minute with very little notice.
Along with a bit of planned obsolescence, combined with the usual turnover associated with any business and you can begin to see how a few folks might be able to squeeze through the cracks while remaining under the radar and slide up the employment ladder without much notice.
But an entire group of people, all of whom are basically assigned to complete one main task, all seriously inept and void of competency?
That's still a tough pill to swallow.
And yet, here we are.
And there they are, for all we know fully preparing to go on yet another year-ending Holiday vacation.
All while the rest of the world continues to dangle ever so dangerously on the edge of a colossal cliff.
An absurdly high, rock filled, moss covered, straight up slope of scary proportions.
Teetering on the edge of a cliff the likes of which the world has never seen.
And there they are, acting all like whatever, no biggie.
C'est la vie, it is what it is.
Let the world crash, we'll still have our jobs in one form or another.
Different cubicle but nevertheless still employed.
At least it seems that way anyway.
Sure, we continue to hear lots of rumors of them supposedly being in a hurry, working feverishly to bring this thing to closure prior to a global crash, but to be honest, I'm not seeing a whole lot of evidence to back it up.
Yes, there have been a few banking infrastructure changes over the past couple years.
I'll give 'em that.
A few altercations... oops, I mean alterations in trade agreements with other countries.
But nothing concrete.
Nothing that says beyond a doubt this "change" or that "action" is directly connected to the completion of the GCR process, leading to what we all want, the actual release of the asset-backed USN.
And honestly, at this point, that's pretty much all I'm looking for.
That's where my focus is these days.
On the release.
The "GO" signal.
Something that tells (as well as shows) me that once and for all we've finally gone asset-backed and we've made the change.
That's when I'll begin to get excited.
When I know my appointment at the Exchange Center is only a few short days away.
Until that day comes, I'm going to continue to hope they send out more than a few pink slips.
A bunch of "Enjoy your weekend... don't bother coming back on Monday!" emails being sent out.
Followed by a flood of job opening listings flooding all the internet sites leading to a long line of possible replacement recruits.
It's time to face facts.
The folks responsible for getting this GCR done ain't gettin' it done.
Because despite all the rumors of it being done, it ain't done.
Otherwise we'd be done reading the rumors and instead we'd be off making the world a better place for all involved.
So let's continue to hang in there folks.
You never know, perhaps this message will help light a fire under whomever's butt needs a nudge.
Even better, maybe it will send a message to the Head of Butt Nudging and he or she will send a mass email to all concerned.
Either way, I feel better knowing I did my fair share to shed a bit of light on a glaringly obvious problem.
And while I'm at it, I'd be remiss if I didn't send a quick shoutout to my Brother in Law for making the most of his quarantine lockdown time by graduating in the top 99.8% of his class and receiving his (printable) online IT degree from ITT University.
It's amazing what can be achieved over a years time, putting in 4 short hours per week combined with 12 easy payments of $49.99 per month.
Hmmm... come to think of it, let's hope that if by some strange set of circumstances an opportunity does open up in the GCR release crew, that they keep my Brother in Law in mind.
Despite his more than likely being extremely overqualified for the position, I'm fairly certain he would entertain the offer and indeed consider it an honor to even be considered for such an important mission.
Anyway, please continue to hang in there folks.
This ride's gotten a little crazy and we don't wanna be blindsided by the insanity.
Kindly, Dr. Dinar

"When Dogs Can Fly" by Dr. Dinar
.When Dogs Can Fly by Dr. Dinar
Well, they did say it would get crazy at the end.
And if you don't think things are getting crazy, then you're living in an entirely different reality than I am.
Although I will admit it's been crazy for quite some time now.
Like about the last 10 years or so.
At least that's the way it seems anyway.
And we were always hoping it was the end but alas, it wasn't.
Nope, not even close to the end.

Like about the last 10 years or so.
At least that's the way it seems anyway.
And we were always hoping it was the end but alas, it wasn't.
Nope, not even close to the end.
For as long as I can recall we've been hearing some of the craziest stuff one can imagine.
But it's not like what we have going on right now.
Especially not on such an all-encompassing global scale.
It's as if the two "Stephens", both King and Spielberg, got together to collaborate on a mind blowing mashup in tribute to Gene Roddenberry.
We often hear the saying "You can't make this shtuff up."
Yet, it's more than obvious they can. And do.
Consistently, on a week to week, month by month, basis.
It seems as if they're never at a loss for crazy.
Back in the day it was all about Iraq and the seating of their government.
That game of musical chairs has gone on for years, one regurgitated article after another.
Occasionally they'd get so ahead of themselves that they'd forget to change the date and once their cover was blown, they'd be forced to create an even bigger lie to outdo their previous ridiculousness, hoping to conceal the unreal.
All the while banking on a serious lack of attention span on the part of your everyday currency holder.
Like a runaway freight train that's lost its Engineer, everyone asleep at the wheel.
They'd simply allow it to run its course until they could imagineer the next latest, greatest delay.
Yet another hitch in a long list of glitches that would once again prevent Iraq from ever reaching a point of posting anything in the Gazette.
Even crazier yet, they've pretty much come full circle with their current cast of characters.
Almost all of these folks currently in the articles are all the same names from the past.
Talk about an unforgettable flashback.
Although back then Sadr was the ultimate bad guy, always threatening to have all of "his" people riot if they didn't get things done ASAP.
By "things" I'm referring to laws passed, Budget revealed, HCL implemented, Article 140, Erbil, Arbil, Gerbil whatevered.
The list goes on, add infinitum.
Then post it in the Gazette, announce it in the Mosques and RV the IQD.
The only thing I see as currently missing is the announcement that Talibani, Barzani, Maliki and Shabibi have been spotted at Baghdad Country Club sneaking out for a quick 18 holes before they release the Budget.
That will be the confirmation, for me at least, that they too have reached an entirely new level of crazium.
So here we are, some 10 years later, not knowing for certain if any of that is, has, or ever will be accomplished.
Likely we never will.
But one thing we do know is none of that matters.
Nope, not a factor in any of this RV/GCR process.
They can and will continue to do whatever they do as they twitter... oops, I mean twittle their thumbs, waiting for the official "GO" signal.
Just like the rest of us, waiting impatiently in the queue.
Matter of fact, I'll bet they're all equally as amazed at just how everything is playing out on a global scale and have plenty of popcorn on hand.
I mean, who could've even begun to imagine all that's currently going on.
We've successfully navigated through a myriad of misconceptions throughout the years but nothing even comes close to what we're dealing with right now.
For those that have only been around for the past 5 or so years, although you might have missed out on most of the Iraq outrageousness that used to serve as our daily dose of crazium, you've managed to get up close and personal with plenty of lunacy.
They've done their very best to not only match but to surpass the previous level of impossibilities.
From Clones wearing gold ties and ankle boots on their feet to security Drones to Aliens conducting NDA... oops, I mean DNA probes while they laser-off our fingerprints.
It's been crazy, personified.
And yet, here we sit, not really remembering any of that.
Things seem to have taken on a surreal feeling.
It's almost like an out of body kinda thing.
It's as if we're watching this whole thing play out but not actually experiencing it for real.
Could that be because I've become so jaded after all these years of nothing coming true.
Or could it be the exact opposite.
Because I'm beginning to see so many of the rumors of our past actually playing out right before my very eyes.
So many things that I just about threw my neck out shaking my head from side to side in sheer disbelief when I first heard them, now coming forth as reality.
I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong.
And lemme tell ya', I've been wrong on more than a few occasions during this seemingly never ending journey.
I've been forced to open my mind to the possibility of their implementing an entirely new banking system.
Which I've always felt was needed but wasn't entirely convinced was possible.
And yet, welcome to the QFS.
Consider me convinced.
Same with the whole "rates" thing as well.
No, I'm not a believer in these so called "Contract" rates being anything us regular folks will ever be near or dear to.
While they might be a reality for the higher-up's, I seriously doubt they will be a factor at our level.
But neither am I a believer in the $0.10 rate that had everyone so excited a mere decade ago.
I guess I'm more middle-of-the-road, believing we'll do very well.
Whatever that means.
Speaking of opening my mind, if you've been around for half a decade or so then you'll surely remember Zap and his Flying Purple Pig "Snuffles".
Part of his weekly updates.
And by "updates", I mean rebuttals as he continually received plenty of flak for his predictions that never materialized.
Welcome Zap, join the crowd.
Up to this point, everybody's been wrong.
It goes without saying Zap's a lively character and I believe he's still out there somewhere.
Through no fault of his own he truly thought he had a handle on how things were going and where we stood in the world's slowest rollout.
Unfortunately he wasn't any closer than anyone else on the GCR Guesstimation Gauge.
Had he been, we'd already be oot 'n aboot, enjoying the "Pay It Forward" lifestyle that we're all looking oh so forward to.
Who knows, with all the other outrageous stuff that's come true after all these years I won't be the least bit surprised to get word of a Flying Purple Pig sighting in the near future.
Even better yet, I'd love to see a Flying Dog or two land on my window sill.
I'll bet they could slide in under the recently imposed travel restrictions.
That could very well be the missing sign we're all so anxiously awaiting.
The tipping point.
The signal telling us we've finally reached the necessary level of crazy.
Crazy enough for them to finally release the RV/GCR.
Buckle up folks because things could get a bit bumpy.
While I don't believe we've actually reached maximum crazium level just yet, one can't help but be extra encouraged by the level of crazy we're now experiencing.
We've got to be getting close.
Please don't bail out now.
You've made it this far, you can make it to the finish line.
Kindly,
Dr. Dinar

Frank26 Iraq will either go 1 to 1 internally or they will un-peg from the American dollar and they will float their currency on par with the American dollar...They aren't gonna stop at 1 to 1. They don't want to be a worthless American dollar's worth. Saudi Arabia what are you worth against the American dollar? 3 what!?! Geez Louise! You think Iraq's gonna stand for that? ...so they will either be 1 to 1 and stay like that - I doubt it. They'll un-peg more than likely, go on par with their assets backing up their currency, take it out to a float...
Militiaman I'm looking forward to seeing if the 2021 budget is exposed to the program rate. I don't believe it will be. A lot of people suggest that it is cut in stone and that's the way it's going to be for a year. I don't believe in that...because...the amount of money that is going to be made in the country is going to be astronomical ...we're getting ready to explode. I'm actually very excited...
