Did I miss the "whee"???
I didn't see a post where W2R said "whee".
Sure feels like she said it. LOL

Yeah. We should have had some warning. Another market indicator down the tubes.

It seems that she's been studiously avoiding using the "Wheee" word since that infamous post but I think maybe someone else snuck in a "Yippeee!" in there somewhere. So it looks like W2R is off the hook for this downturn.

Hey, what about this?
Dow over 28,000!
OK, I suppose you could say it was a couple of months early but my crystal ball needs a tune-up. Besides, the original "Wheee" was on 10/1/2007, probably a little early also.
Record Dow! Whee!
Oh, and by the way, I am LOVING my new top-of-the-line Blow That Dough recliner that I bought in an impulsive splurge on January 7th. I gave my old recliner to Frank, who fixed it and is using it; he is thrilled with his, too.
(Me: ) ~~~~~~> .......... <~~~~~~ (Frank: )
So, that might also have been an indicator I suppose.

I had missed that thread.... Yep... pretty darn close.
The oracle from NOLA still knows all.

It was close enough.
Now you need to sharpen your tools and call the bottom.
