Uh... Mr. Lucretius, Dude, your highness-ship, sir... We haven't had a bad bear in 26 years...I hope you haven't been short all that time. We've only HAD ONE CRASH. Yes, it could happen. Yes, there will be corrections. Yes, really scary, bad things are possible. Yes, someone could come to my house and kidnap my children, too. But I don't put bets on it. I stay aware and watch. ANd yes, I DO believe that I can get out with a ten or fifteen percent hickey in my account. But I'm not going to hide in the bushes, or bet the 'don't pass,' until that happens. BTW, you use the word 'arrogant' more than anyone else on this or any other thread. Please dont' bother to point out that I did, too. but once, not in every post, and not referring to everyone else here.

One more quote from Cramer: Let me leave you with one thought. Other than a few moments when Dell (DELL:Nasdaq) got poleaxed by the press for some bizarre currency hedging it did a few years ago, and when a great ex-Goldman Sachs analyst was criticized for his coverage of the stock in a bogus Heard on the Street column, Dell has flown. In fact, THIS STOCK HAS BEEN OUTRAGEOUSLY EXPENSIVE SINCE IT CAME PUBLIC. Yet, it remains a large position of mine, and has made me more money than any stock in my lifetime, save Cisco. Go figure. Guess I should have shorted it. Would have been real right on the valuation -- the heck with the money I made. NOT!
