Oh boy! It's raining today so I'll be inside close to the tv. Looks like this could be capitulation Friday or the final push to DOW -0-. Where's my medicine?
I listen to my favorite music and don't turn the TV on at all! I listen to Slacker Radio @ www.slacker.com you can create your own stations, w/o commerials, based on your favorite artist.
Nows the time to re-discover music, art, READING, exersice as their is s much uglyness in TV
Agh! It's getting ugly already. Dow down 424 in just a few minutes of trading.

I think this is good advice and I hope I follow it!

Yes, I agree. Let me put on some easy listening music for everyone.
I have an idea - let's close the stock market on Fridays and pass a law everyone needs to enjoy outdoors time away from computers, TV and radio. The resultant improvement in health and attitude could only help

Let's see. I bought on October 10th, 14th, and 20th. Should I buy today?
Nah - - I think I'll just sit back and watch, today.

Calling my stock dude after I finish this last cup of coffee. We're working on the shopping list for the big buys in my taxable account. Looking at the pre-open this morning made me think I might just take some nibbles here and there in my IRA, but the complete bloodbath has failed to materialize. I was looking for a total and complete baby-seal clubbing to happen and I figured that would be the signal - but it just didn't happen.

Hey, the day is young. Don't give up hope just yet!

Thanks re buying today, W2R and Leonidas--my little inner voice said this might be the day to put a little more into Wellesley, for example, but on the other hand sometimes I feel like the baby seal in my ignorance and would be ripe for the clubbing since the knife will probably continue falling.
Or maybe I meant "anyone buying today?" to mean a round of that special get-you-through-the-day medicine some speak of on this board? Hey, I'll pop for the first one.
