Maybe a negotiation tactic. Didn't the Palms just build another tower a couple years ago?

Good question as I dont go to their hotel. In fact I was in there this last trip I was trying to get a glimpse of something. I dont know if they did or not.

So is Sacramento going to hold the State Fair this year?

I've been talking 'shop' and business for Skiingfast. It's put me into a semi-work frame of mind. When I have my business hat on, I'm not here to make friends. I'm here to get the job done and for the hard truths.

Do you hate talking shop?

BHP is interesting. I listen to a lot of investing talk and now that gold is so high people bring up BHP all the time. I wish they would study a little harder because BHP is super horizontally integrated and gold does not make or break it.

Yes but they moved it to the middle of July. UGH

There alot that are very intense. No they take them down at the end.

No, I mean at the Easter Fair in AU. Altough in Utah at Lagoon which is a amusement park just north of Salt Lake City they have a triple looping coaster. It was built to travel in Europe. But was a cheap coaster for Lagoon to modernize. Although this was in the 80s.

I love my work and am really lucky that I can do what I do in 3 days a week.

I don't do talk about it much on the Dis. Plus I have to be careful what I share because I do sometimes have access to confidential inside information.

BHP will buy anything that you dig up out of the ground. It's product portfolio is very diverse.

That when State Fairs should be. Well at least that is closer to when my county fair is.

I don't know about the Sydney Fair but the Royal Melbourne Show rides are designed to travel. There used to be a couple of rides that were permanent (might still be there) but they only get used for about 2 weeks once (or twice) a year.

We have both they do the county fair first then the state.

Are you talking about ABBA the Dancing Queen Mama Mia Swedish band?

They broke up in the 80's....and there are lots of impersonating bands around. Australia has a few, the one that I know of is BABBA....

So do you think AU raising it's tax on mining was timed just for elections or it just naturally passed at that time?

Can I take the 5th on this? I'm actually working on a tax project in BHP at the moment.

I don't believe that there is any chance of them reforming at the moment.

Well if I post alone at 40 secs it will take awhile if everyone did for an hour that might make a difference
