Jonathan,

I have been following DRMD closely for about six months now and you are absolutely right DRMD has some wonderful premium income. It is the kind of stock I think is pretty good for writing covered calls. I have been waiting for it to dip down to about 9.00 or 9.50 to purchase but its been holding up pretty good.

Since I like the stock I am also considereding writing a straddle on it at 10.00. That would mean me writing a 10.00 call for about 1.00 and also writing a naked put for about 1.00. I would collect 2.00 or 20%, if I do it on margin which I would I would collect 40% going in and have to wait about 30 days to see how much I get to keep.

What is your opinion on this kind of play on this particular stock.

David
