We seem to be traveling in similar circles. I also own sunw and Oracle. You may be able to get a quarter point or so for the December 85 on sun. That could give you approximately $1000 by options expiration for the premium. Sometimes, as for example today, I picked up another thousand shares of aol at 88 and change and immediately sold the December 90 calls for three points. Even if I were to be taken out at 90 for those thousand shares, it still yielded me and additional three-point premium for the three-day period between now and options expiration, which doesn't seem to bad to me.

thanks for the return,

David

Please forgive the minor grammatical errors, I'm using Dragon naturally speaking. While it is not perfect, it sure beats the hell out of banging that keyboard. What a tremendous life saver for the office.
