Bob, it isn't as bad as all that (today, I mean).  The dollar gained a great 
deal earlier in the week and is giving back those gains.  The dollar is 
toast, 
it's true, but the 5% overnight drop isn't all that foreboding in itself.

As far as these perilous times, here's my bit on that:

When I had to go after that damn chupacabra bear that was killing my goats, 
my mother was alarmed and told me that was dangerous.  My reply was, "Of all 
the dangerous things in the woods, I'm the most dangerous.  Of all 
frightening 
things out there, I'm the most frightening.  And of all the sooky things one 
might encounter in that Mirkwood hollow at night, *I* am the spookiest."

So perilous times?  Bring 'em on!  Of all the perilous things out there, I'm 
the most perilous!
