Cute part about the whiner Joe, I got a father in law that mines the Bonanza creek in Dawson, Yukon (where it all started) every summer and yup the golds turned him and his 2 sons into FULL FLEDGED F@@KING FREAKS.:bootysha:
LOL! The people that own the claim next to them felt bad for them and sent their 15 year old over to show them how to set their machinery. :-D Once they opened one pipe the one guy said "It's clogged with gold! Look at all this gold!" The kid saw a couple microscopic flakes and walked away shaking his head.
I imagine gold fever will really flip some people out. :read2:
