> The market crashes, turns to ashes that you’re dancing on while some fat lady cues up for a song. **You just don’t panic, so they said in all the good books that I have read. You just lay back and feed your head, but that ain’t clever, that never got nothing to sell, hell, oh well, maybe we were better off dead.**
