The 10" Chocolate Drop Replaces the New York Stock Exchange Bell


by Andrew Borakove April 24, 2017

How important? How valuable? How in tune with the cosmos is the 10" Chocolate Drop Gong?

Well, let us just say this little bit of bronze splash-adashery on day of April 11 in a certain year Anno Domini, just 10 days after April Fool's Day, considered enough time away for all things to be considered serious once again, this gong was in the news!

Why? Because the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange was replaced with the 10" Chocolate Drop Gong, resulting in a steep rise in social consciousness and the single largest drop in the Dow since the crash of '29.

As the bright, crisp tone of this gong rang out, trading was immediately suspended and the Keynesians upended as speculation turned from pork bellies to the nature of existence, and the only talk of futures, was of mankind itself.

Bulls and bears gave consideration to the environmental impact of all their affairs, and geckos of the Gordon variety were heard to say, "We have enough."

Thus, greed gave way to the sharing of wealth, and the funds became truly mutual while mindfulness joined frozen O.J. on the big board. Hope became contagious, and folks stopped buying short. As introspection became the order of the day, even the most avaricious and hard of heart looked within, becoming "inside traders" in every sense.

Yes, people did jump from windows, but into sunshine and only from the ground floor. It was indeed another "great" depression, only this time emphasis on the adjective, not the noun.

You say you want a revolution? Well, you know that’s a nice thought but useless without the purchase of a 10" Chocolate Drop Gong or two. The ticker you save could be your own.
