<<the Dow, SP500, and Naz are all still up on the order of
8-12% for the year. If today was Dec. 31, we could still
celebrate a pretty good year. >>

Your numbers are too optimistic.

It is not Dec 31. Don't look in the rear view mirror. Cash is the king.

Brian, What chicken littles? It takes real courage to buy puts in the face of bubbles. You make a good point, though. CNBS showed a chart of the Dow since the bottom in 1991, and this barely registers as a hiccup. Which means that we are much closer to a top than a bottom. But it sure has been a sweet hiccup for my puts. <G>
