>>>hope you loaded up.<<< I bought what I could afford...

After the first hour of trading I had to leave because my horses and mule (Blossom) had torn up some fencing and were heading for a neighbors corn field. At the time CSCO was trading at 19.90 so I changed my order to 19.80 (was at 19.60). But the reality of the matter is that it makes no difference the price of the new shares. We are expecting CSCO to move to the 21 to 23 range. The upward move in CSCO is what will make this work or not work.

>>Nice call<<< ...just absolute dumb luck. I guarantee that if you ask my kids, or my ex... they will vouch for the fact that there are smarter rocks. .... but then again in these matters I would rather be lucky than smart.

Second chance is tomorrow.... CSCO will get below 19.50 for a short time and then reverse the downward trend in the last two hour of trading. Think about it...if as a speculator you want to make a play on CSCO you have to own the stock prior to earnings being released.

At a price of $19.41 I put the last of my cash to work, and go out to finish the repair job on my fences. I need to get my head examined...for messin' with ornery horses and mules. If I wasn't such a cheap SOB I'd go out and spend a few bucks to buy a nice Tennessee Walker, or Morgan, or Fox Trotter, and I wouldn't have to spend so much time pickn' myself off the ground and checkn' for broken bones.

Regards, Jerome
