Comstock then and recent

f ANY really want an answer to a direct question asked here? In 2004 What is now Comstock Minerals,LODE, as GoldSpring, GSPG, took on spiraling toxic debt to eventually now totally control the historic Comstock Lode. By 2010 it would have required near 8 billion common shares to convert all of Convertible Preferred ownership which finally began all working together step by step into common 53.4 million shares reorganized. Until 2017 it produced the now closed American Flat heap with great future plans as a prime example of Nevada best mine practices. 

Result? I became the largest common shareholder as EVERYONE dumped and I near alone (1 small other hung with me) bought all down to .00015. I had really good advice from another long term area expert just like our common friend Paul Thompson. Was the way we met in 2008. An announced planned 200-1 reverse in 2007 rose PPE to .07 and I sold half. When the finances began to be legally straightened still til now by CoB John Winfield, also a friend,the 7 year TEST  mining heap production began to finally be drilled and I sold the rest PRIOR to another 2010 20-1 reverse into LODE. Many know the story. May check Thurs PR included for  perusal. 

BTW: Someone enjoyed the food in a 1860s morgue, frozen bodies piled to the 2nd floor? Might explain a lot. Yeah the menu (NONE, a saloon!) IS haunting, with the ghost tours daily. Bring a drink on upstairs. Just HOW FAR OFF TOPIC is allowed in other’s TOS? Seems none for many us. 

“Ever had lunch at the Old Washoe Club ?” 

“The mirror isn’t the only item with a story to tell. 
The bar’s sagging wood floors were cut from Lake Tahoe forests in the mid-1800s. Chandeliers from the same era hang from the ceiling, but the oil baskets have been replaced with electric-powered bulbs. Above the bar is a vintage crystal wedding basket, and it, too, survived the unruliness of the bar’s patrons, even though a few inches to the left, bullet holes mar the ceiling’s copper tiling. 
RECOMMENDED STORIES FOR YOU 
In the back of the building, through a glass door, is the room where McCain keeps the booze. The low temperature of the room hasn’t changed much from the town’s mining heyday, when it was used as a morgue. 
In the winter, it was impossible to transport dead bodies, so they were stacked in this room. When the roads out of town were in really bad shape, the pile of bodies reached as high as “B” Street, almost a full story above where McCain stores his beer. 
Between the old morgue and the bar is another room with brick walls and a pool table. The room’s entrance has a spiral staircase that leads to the original location of The Millionaires Club, a prestigious 19th-century society that had three dozen members, including Grant, Sheridan and Twain, an honorary member because no writer’s assets in the late 1800s totaled $1 million.” 

Then this also explains a lot CURRENTLY IMMINENT or is that inevitable? 

“Comstock Mining Advances the Dayton Resource Development, 
Schedules 2018 Dayton NI 43-101; 
Discovers 3 feet of 0.246 opt Gold and 3.553 opt Silver in Crosscutting Mineralization 

Virginia City, NV (July 19, 2018) Comstock Mining Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE American: LODE) today announced its progress towards, and additional plans for, advancing its Dayton project, which contains the Company’s second largest gold and silver mineral resource. The Company has retained the independent mining advisory firm of Behre Dolbear to produce a National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) compliant technical report for the Dayton resource area” 

So weird. Totally unknown alias msg bd posters use the ONLY known by name successful start up exploration investor as a constant BAD example. What’s wrong with this picture. 

Corrado at LODE is an old friend, both me , once largest shareholder, and PT who is held in VERY high regard as a long term resident mine consultant. He MUST know SEC will beat down the door 6 AM when it hears about this Behre Dolbear LODE announced Canadian NI project. SIMPLY NOT ALLOWED to proceed in such fashion and doomed to INEVITABLE AND IMMINENT failure. Have it on the BEST authority 2 years running right here. Let’s see, last confirmed… on July 19, ’18. Thinka tha!

OOPS! 
Oh. the  GSPG  profits went into another  silly small explorer I helped  start for   more than  original 2004 520,000 investment in .25 GORO when it market panic fell to  under $2  in Oct  2008. Yep, there went my retirement, thank GOD! Another  did it all wrong.

Nice’s nize

But one day we  drove  up to old  cruise friend Fanch Ledan’s  home  above  Nice  from  Monaco harbor for a nice lunch and auction. Have a   painting he did early as an architect student of  a Manor House done later  as lithographs. Surprise  drop in was neatnick Jean Claude  Picot dean of  French water color landscapers so got one of his as well. He lives down nearer the sea. Gave  me as nice pencil sketch of the Paris Seine bridges.Yeah, Nice’s nize.  But  Henry  Millers spot below Big Sur is  a good visit too and  he welcomed  Dali during  the  war working  with  Uncle  Walt. Got  an applause from Walt singing  Melancholy  Baby at  D’land opera house  his  morning  walk around  Easter week  ’61. Tends to all run together now.  Picasso’s in there  someplace and last  student  Mouly we do collect BIG Oils.

I grew up looking daily at what was once Kern River valley swamp. But the pump jacks were surrounded by aging wooden derricks in the early 40’s.
“I LOVE the smell of lung burning asphalt tar in the morning”. Baker did NOT discover an oil field, Standard Oil did. He just dug 3 canals irrigating desert agriculture. One we lived on in OIldale, ‘Okieland’ E of US 99 & Kern River to make discovery possible in 1900’s . May have been a good lesson age 5 off to WW2 adults building military bases and ships in San Francisco as a REAL civic education gone to handbasket Hell! Homeless haven! Watch where ya step! 8

Spent i nite Indianapolis motel driving back with family from Germany, into McGuire AFB in 1975 off to CA and finally Texas.Just recall McD had started to make a bfast of sorts then drove to Jefferson City, Denver and Salinas with a nite in Salt Lake, Hill AFB. State always seemed a real wide area to traverse to get anyplace but JIm Nabors loved it. 8

Towards Lyrical Satirical Poetry

Lesson for the day.

Several rhyme patterns can be a sonnet. Here’s 3 quatrains and a couplet, Shakespearean. Emma used a Spenserian pattern, couplet between quatrains.

Ode to the Gold
A Sonnet by Eighthaero

My lovely gold, you now inspire me write
Of how I love the way you hide then glow,
Invading all my mind both day and night,
With dreams of just how much my worth will grow.

Should I compare thee to a summer’s day?
You’re my true fancy, pure in value money.
Bright sun heats up the month of May
Just as we bid adieu the Easter Bunny.

How do I love you? Let me tell the way
I love your precious color, shine and gleam.
Thoughts of your brilliant shine fills all my day
And ends with slumber in a lovely dream.

As now I must go toil with useful heart,
Hold fast my loving words whilst we’re apart

We vats to please but jus vants to be alone! Tired, poor? Just looking to see how that will translate on them ‘hubbled masses yearning to speak free’! Luv it when a plan comes together. 8

n CA in late 40s post war thick std English Comp text was a giant ($$$) tome, “Readings for a Liberal Education”. 2 Semesters long IF you passed the ‘Subject A’ exam or took 1st Bonehead English semester for no credit. Was what should be taught in Hi School. Some later was rethot and named “Readings TOWARDS a LIberal Education”. since you either got it or didn’t up to the student. 1st class Fall Semester that was explained by my prof a new UC grad, Ben Luchow . I chose to do the essays by rewrite some classics such as “Upon Julia’s Clothes”. R Herrick 1591-1674.

“In bobby sox my Jullie goes. Then, when through holes, I see her toes… Her Jeans and T-shirt I oppose .”

I explained to Ben, nice bright Jewish fellow, my year’s project will be “TOWARDS Lyrical, Satirical Poetry” & he lapped it up. Carried it on throughout a now long life. Blog stuff. 8

Simple fact is into it there no escape for now 62 years. Any paper scrap can take a scribble. Never my real business some stuff’d get quoted local and national. Sisters Ann Landers and Abby Van Buren, WPO’s Bill Safire were occasional fans as my old fiend Heloise (the younger) here in SAT still at her work. Express News here had a “Puro San Antonio” contest a long while back. Winner?

Pure is not selective numbers
Pure is not the driven snow.
Pure is mutual, all inclusive.
Puro San Antonio.
Pure is fun along a river.
Peace within the Alamo.
Cascarones at fiesta.
Puro San Antonio.

Printed on my checks ever since. Due some nice prizes. like a pvt dinner cruise. free rooms in town, never got a one. All seem to just forget they donated them. “Oh that lady left awhile back.” Least Puro term still used in publicity. 8
