    Best Credit Crunch Metaphors and Analogies (feel free to share)

    Some of my faves...

    "I feel a little bit like the citizens of New Orleans after Katrina hit and everyone breathed a sigh of relief... right before the levees collapsed,"

    "Like [Warren] Buffett said, the tide has gone out and we're really seeing which people are swimming naked,"

    "the banks fell over like fat Labradors running over a wet kitchen floor,"

    “In some ways we are still walking into the storm rather than out.”

    “The world is on the brink. The market is puking all over us.”

    "As all the fruits of the Republican love affair with deregulation came flying off the trees of Wall Street like rotten apples transported in a hurricane..."
