So it looks like the ultimatum was lifted somewhat. When people go in full blown buying frenzies it kind of reminds me of the bull story. I try to pace myself like an old bull in the comic pasture and get as much as possible. Slow and steady.
There are two bulls standing on a hill overlooking a pasture full of cows. The younger bull, eager, but lacking experience, says to the old bull “Hey, let’s run down there and !@#+ ourselves a cow.” The old bull, who has spent season after season in this pasture, turns to the younger bull, chuckles, and replies “Nah, how about we walk down there, and !@#+ them all.”
