Looking for a little advice folks ...

I ended up with 88 shares of SEG after the merger / buyout of Conner, and am trying to figure out what to do with them (I know, it was a while ago, but it wasn't until recently that I decided to start making my own investment decisions without relying on a broker's advice).

Now seems like it would be a particularly bad time to sell them since the stock is still way off it's recent highs and the company just finished all that restructuring in order to increase margins.

It also seems like a bit of a waste to just leave them sitting there.
I would have some interest in writing covered calls. Do people think it would seem worthwhile to buy up to 100, 200, or more shares in order to have an even lot to write against?

Any thoughts would be appreciated ...
