Another week of life faces us again. I hope by the end of this week each Porch Friend has accomplished something they set out to do, whether it be in the market, the job, relationships with others, a closer step to getting off debt, whatever. Don't get rattled if this market doesn't climb back fast. Manage your expectations with a dose of reality. There are lots of opportunities in this market even with it down or range bound for awhile. Go back and look at a few of the tech stocks and see how far they have come from their lows this summer. Lots of opportunities to have achieved a very good return on your investment, even if you didn't buy at the exact lows. I'll be looking to execute my trades that I've posted already. Would love to add to those JDSU March calls and also start building more on that EXTR I finally got in last week. I'll do it slowly. A little here, a little there. Doesn't have to be all at once. Don't let the market play you. Manage it by being smart. Stay cool. Hopefully, next weekend we can all get on here and talk about our success and what a great week in life we had. We all are a lot better off than most folks and for that we need to be thankful and not take things for granted. Take care my friends. Have a great week! RR

What a story, I have one too. I was at a barn just done riding when looking outside I saw a huge green cloud come over. Running outside I had to bring in about 20 freaking out horses. Some people were still trying to get off their horses mass confusion everywhere. I was able to get myself postioned in the tack room when that puppy hit. Not alot of damage the side of the barn blew off but mostly it was left standing and nobody got hurt. Those tornado"s r pretty scary stuff. HG48
