Im watching a commercial for a gold 9-11 coin with a silver inlay of the towers and the uss new York.

They make a point of mentioning that the silver was actually recovered from beneath the tower rubble.

Where would this silver have come from?  How could it have been recoverable?

This sort of disturbs me.

I'm sure the recovered silver has to do with a Zionist plot of some sort. It must be related in some way to the Mossad putting sharks in the water to attack tourists and hurt Egypt's economy.

Are you saying something sold on TV may not be 100% legitimate?  [roll]
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

It also said that the Secret Service authorized the FBI seal on the back.

And at the end it said "National Collector's Mint is an independent, private corporation not affiliated with, endorsed, or licensed by the U.S. government or the U.S. Mint."

I see it as more of ghouls making money off the incredibly stupid and gullible. Seriously... Who in their right mind believes that shit? And even if it were true and it was real money, don't ya think it's in bad taste? Why would you want to support that?

gullible and stupid???   Impossible!!!! I saw the ad on TV and MY TV does not lie to me...I was taught that TV is "truth" since childhood starting with Sesame Street and Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.

Now I have to get over to the doctor to get 40 prescriptions written for all those medications I clearly need to make my life better...TV told me I probably need them!!

Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers?

Certainly you meant Romper Room and Captain Kangaroo. ;)
