Yesterday, I went to the doctor for a minor procedure. Mr. P . and I were waiting in a private examining room, waiting to be called in. There was a TV in the room, tuned to the news.
We had been waiting for quite some time, and Mr. P. fell asleep, and I mean ASLEEP. He was all bent over, snoring soundly. It seemed as if a bulldozer could not wake him.
All of a sudden the guy on the television, which was not on very loud, announces that the Dow Jones had dropped 400 points. Mr. P. sits bolt upright, wide awake, shouts, "400 points", and immediately falls asleep again.
We did not get to hear the news until we came home after the market was closed.
Funny, normally he has a very stoic attitude about the market. We are hanging tight, and he usually does not get consciously upset about it.
Stumble It!
