How Now, Dow?

Well, if I’m going to ride this roller-coaster market, I’d better do some reading…


Let’s see… Making the Most of Bull Markets, see page 92… Surviving Bear Markets, page 107… Investment Tips for Bad Times, page 210… for End Times, page 666…


Heck, I might as well hide my money under the mattress and hope for the best…


Sell, Dorie H., sell!

    that last pic is totally my friend’s fiance as a dog :)

    also, sorta reminds me of the insurance commercial with the dog putting his bone in the safety deposit box at the bank

    • Rumi says:

      I love that commercial — the dog is so sweet! And I LOVE the song.

    • Zippy says:

      So, tracylee, that’s the pic you were looking for? If so, leave to NOMTOM to find it for you (and of course, create clever verbiage to go along with it, too)!

    • mie says:

      May I say, your friend’s fiance is very cute! :D
      Also, yay for CO apparently taking requests now!! Ask and ye shall receive XD

      • Dorie says:

        what was the request?

        • Not That Mike The Other Mike says:

          Short version: This picture appeared in another post briefly, post was unpublished (not sure why), Tracylee asked where picture went, I wrote new post with picture.

        • mie says:

          Check out the comments under the proposed new rule of cuteness post (the cat napping with her tail over her eyes). Tracylee was looking for these pics.

          • Dorie says:

            Thanks, Mie and Mike! I can’t believe pix of my pup were actually requested! I’ve always known how cute he was — not just cause i KNOW but bc i get stopped ALL THE TIME and asked about him. even recently by Steve Martin! i’m glad the world gets to enjoy him now as well :)

    Dog is thinking: I hope somebody lets me out soon. I need to make a “deposit” in my hedge fund.

    • cellarmouse says:

      okay, 260o, i must applaud … my admiration has overcome my embarrassing attempt to never laugh at loud due only to curmudgeonly jealousy …

    • kimmaroo says:

      He might be the most adorabuhls example of quite possibly the most adorabuhls breed of all goggies! A blessing on your head for rescuing him….

    The way things are going at the Stock Market , maybe we should have some animals take over the market and maybe they can straighten things out better than the morons , jerks and nincompoops can who are in charge of the financial fiasco we are having around the world and in this country !!!!!

  12. AuntieBellum says:

    Hoard gold, food, and weapons! Good advice!

    • Theresa says:

      “What kind of financial advice is that?” Sounds like Colbert. Don’t forget the chickens. :P

  13. Fird Birfle says:

    The *only* possible way to increase the value of this post, woulda been if the adorable doggeh reading financial news, had happened to be a Chow breed.

    “Chow: How Now, Dow????” ;)

    I wish Floofy McSpangle here would just take over the world’s banks.

  15. Saffron says:

    I want to nom on those big floofy paws….

  16. mie says:

    Is it just me, or has that doggie got some Trump action going on in the first pic, you know hair-wise? If you look at it right (that is, throught my eyes), that totally looks like the Trump combover.

    • kimmaroo says:

      It’s totally a Trumpesque comb-over! It’s quite becoming on the goggie. :o )

    • Dorie says:

      hee… he’s so blonde on top that it often looks like a little toupee. and the longer it gets, the more trump-like he looks! but soooooo much cuter than the donald!!!!
