I wish this place was still open. I would have proudly walked in wearing one.

This is embarrassing, but how do you boost a post? I remember the old method.

I love watching a good snow bowl, but it sucks when your team's air em out offense gets beaten by a slow, sure footed running back. Injuries are also an issue.

Thanks for asking this. I have a similar situation, but no closes yet. Generally speaking, I am often baffled by channel closures. They seem random at times.

Me? I only buy bitcoin. If I wanted to arbitrage it, I would be competing with the big boys anyway. It's not easy. I wouldn't know the first thing about trying to open an account that would allow me to trade on the Shanghai silver exchange. Even if I did, I would need the ability to execute very fast trades. It's not for​ amateurs.

I have been thinking a lot about unit of account lately. I have lived in the US my whole life, so measuring everything in dollars is second nature. I wonder about people in other countries. Do they also use the USD price to calculate bitcoin in their head, or do they watch it in local currency to measure buying power?
