30. Some of us remember when the Dow Jones was less than 600!
I can't say it's germane to what happened today, just an interesting juxtaposition.

41. Yes, I remember the big fuss when it passed 1,000 for the first time.
Seems long ago. WAS long ago. I also remember an Atlantic Magazine cover saying "?Dow 65,000?" That was less long ago.

53. What was it in 1987? You know, when it dropped 500 points?
It wasn't that high back then; must have been under 10,000.

34. W. is saying:


"Listen, if we had stability in Iraq right now, you'd be call me a genius. And if we had fifty-cent-a-gallon gas, I'd be on every front page. And if the economy hadn't gone to hell, I'd be the darling of the press. But just because of a few sinking things, I'm seen as a failure. The press is beating up on me and there's your proof!"

64. It would really piss me off no end ....



... if after he leaves office, thinking about his "legacy" of being the absolute worst President ever makes him strongly consider oral sex with a Smith & Wesson. It would piss me off because the SOB should have given it serious thought nine years earlier before he had the chance to ruin the country.
