“It was raining gold all over me”

“It was raining gold all over me”

Miner Henry Dole was in for a shock when he went into the Beta Hunt mine in southwestern Australia after the workers set off some explosives. “Everything was covered in dust, and there was just gold everywhere, as far as you could see,” he told Australia’s ABC News. “There was chunks of gold in the face, on the ground, truly unique I reckon. … I nearly fell over looking at it … we were picking it up for hours.” RNC Minerals says the find, from a single cut in the mine, includes about 9,250 ounces of high grade gold. At today’s gold price, that’s worth some $11 million. One of the stones weighs more than 200 pounds, and contains about 2,440 ounces of gold.

 

A banker approaches the pearly gates sweating and struggling with a very heavy suitcase. St. Peter greets him and says “Set down the suitcase and, come on in.” “No way,” barks the banker, “I have to bring it in with me.” “What could possibly be in the suitcase that is so important you brought it into eternity with you?” asked Peter. The banker opens the suitcase to reveal 50 gold bricks. Saint Peter’s jaw drops open and he asks, “You brought pavement?”

Judi was walking by the jewelry store one day in the midtown mall. She saw a gold bracelet that she really liked. In the store she went. “Excuse me,” she said to the sales lady behind the counter, “Will a small deposit hold that bracelet until my husband does something unforgivable?”
