Top is in

[JAYSLOL]

In before it bounces back up.

I’m kind of hoping we get at least one more day with a good drop so that thorstach chimes in just in time for the bounce

Dang it, all we needed was one more day with a good drop, thanks a lot stupid market. 

[Swish]

This gets better with time.

[Fomerly known as something]

Dang it.  Couldn't we wait until tomorrow.  My TSP money goes in today.

[Wintergreen78]

Look! The top is in and we will get a 5-10% correction. Unless we don’t.

So, everyone should definitely wait to buy. Unless they shouldn’t.

Advice of a calibre I normally expect only from the Washington Post.

Put it this way: America is being attacked by a bear, and depending on what type of a bear it is, we either must play dead immediately or should NOT play dead at any cost — in fact, playing dead is the worst thing we could do. So I would advise America: Either play dead, or don’t! This building is either on fire or not, and consequently, I advise people either to rush out of the building with their children and valuables, or take a nap!

On a trip to Alaska I saw the best advice ever given. If you are attacked by a grizzly you should play dead. However! If the grizzly starts to eat you, you should fight back.

So remember everyone, if you start getting eaten by a bear you should fight back. I’d also like to add that you may want to make that decision fairly quickly.

[TomTX]

I need the top to stay in at least throughMonday! We're front-end loading...

I once dreamed I was being eaten feet first by a bear.  Then I woke up and realized I was kicking the cat in my sleep.  If you start getting eaten by a bear, maybe you should make sure you're not kicking a feisty cat in your sleep.

Wait the grizzly bear is the kind where you should play dead? I thought I'd be taught to play dead for a black bear (because a grizzly bear would still try to eat me), and climb a tree for a grizzly bear (because a black bear would up climb the tree after me). ... followed by the reminder that grizzly bears can be black and black bears can be brown.

This.

What if it is a cute little sun bear? Can you tell the difference between a brown bear cub and a sun bear adult in the wild?

[DarkandStormy]

It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll

How low can you go?
Can you go down low?
All the way to the floor
How low can you go?
Can you bring it to the top?
Like you never never stop?
Can you bring it to the top, one hop

What about a Paddington Bear? Unless you have some marmalade to give up, you're probably hosed.

I prefer Pooh bear, honey.

This must be the beginning of a bear market.

What are you saying? Top was in?

[dougules]

I honestly hope it's not a bear market because I think bears should be able to run free, not be bought and sold.

That is an important thing to remember. Black bears are not necessarily black. They also usually run away from you, in my experience. Unless they ignore you. But apparently black bears (which, once again, may not be black) that decide to run at you are probably being aggressive and want to eat you. So, you should try to keep them from eating you.

Grizzlies (which, as you correctly pointed out, may be black) have also run away from me or ignored me whenever I’ve seen them. Apparently grizzlies that run at you are usually bluffing and don’t want to eat you. Unless they do. Once again, if a grizzly wants to eat you, and if you do not want to be eaten, you should try to make the grizzly stop eating you.

I thought the bear markets were full of bears shopping for honey and marmalade... take the TOP off and enjoy!
