Down goes the Dow

Seattle,

Like arguing politics rather pointless really. I have several things I need to get done before I croak, best to get on with them.

Too bad U-Dub couldn’t get it done in the Red Zone. Good game though.

Only time will tell if your purchases made since 2011 will pay off. I say they won’t?.

As always, you make assumptions to make your narrative work. Like assuming those purchases are still being held.

How about if I cashed them out last Friday. Or a week ago. Or a month ago. You're the one that has said you never advocate being out of the market.

How about if I assume you will hold on too long, and like you always claim people do, sell at the bottom when it happens.

You had all the time in the world and that's the best you can come up with?

Sad!

Yeah, there's more to the season, though. Hoping they do a little better against ND on Saturday. Enjoy your Labor Day.

Seattle,

Looking forward to the ND game. Boise State plays my alma mater Oklahoma State in two weeks, so there will be divided loyalties in our house. This morning 8 miles running with 3 miles of intervals. Stripping and refinishing a breakfast nook table and chairs we bought in 1982. A couple of naps of course with some hot dogs later on. Enjoy yours as well.

Obviously, his thoughts of a big drop go back way beyond the 3 1/2 years people have accused him of.

The second half of this article adds to the recent Social Security discussion here.

Really? You were under some kind of deadline pressure before you came up with that gem?

Come on, You have to be able to do better than this.

Once again we see a Igy either being completely disingenuous, or displaying a complete lack of understanding regarding middle school mathematics.

Better check your middle school reading comprehension dippy.
