>> the price of IOM has fluctuated enough from day to day and from week to week to provide ample opportunity for shrewd day-traders and options players like Truflette (who has far more stomach for that kind of
thing than I do) to pocket some nice money at the same time that they amaze, entertain, and enlighten the long-term investing tortoises like Jack Knudsen (sic) and me. <<

Amen to that fellow plodder! Actually, I've been finding Ira's approach to selling covered calls to be very interesting. If my plodding investing style ever gets legs, that's the route I think I would go.

Trufflette and the Trader's day-to-day *stunts* <g> remind me too much of a group of crazies I used to sky dive with way back when. A day of jumping didn't prouduce enough of an adrenaline rush for them unless it included at least one low-pull contest . . . the psyche move for which was to just use their reserve since no one who had time to dump a main would be low enough to win. Crazy.

Still long, still holding, and plodding profitably onward.
