<<Who could have predicted the Russian crisis and continued Asian problems. How about you?>>

It's no fun, that's for sure. History in the making and must be total white knuckle time for those who have seen nothing but a raging bull market. I sold a couple of stocks that have heavy Latin America and above average Asian exposure. I was still a little above water on those but felt like they had a brick tied to them, slowly pulling them down, so I bailed before going under. I think the economic domino effect of what's going on overseas has only really shown it's iceberg tip. JMO.

I've locked away all my core and plan to add on opportunity, at this point. That being the Lu, Csco, ..., quality stuff. The way I see it we get some fantastic bargains and are extremely happy about our investments in the long run (highest probability), or everything melts down and it makes Mel Gibson's life as Mad Max in the movie Road Warriors look like a day at the beach; in which case, it won't matter.

Regards. ...Tim
