I wish you'd quit making it go down Trufflette by day trading so many shares above $10. You and Dale Stempson. If Dale hadn't posted, it would still be above $10! Geez! The specialist for IOM is all too accommodating. Now I've got to make up another IOM story for the wife. I guess I just did. "Well honey, it's like this, this Dale Stempson guy said he was selling above $10 and then everyone started selling above $10. Although Trufflette didn't post when it was above $10 everyone was thinking in the back of their minds that, heck, Trufflette's probably selling now, so by gawd, "No way am I going to be holding the bag when she posts after the market, 'I sold above $10, did you?'"

Then there's my thinking, "IOM is worth $20, why should I sell at $10? I know Dale is selling, and I KNOW FOR SURE Trufflette is day trading. I know the specialist wants everyone to daytrade in order to give himself a weekend bonus, so he's going to drop the bid. But, heck, I can handle a $1/2 point drop." Of course, IOM drops by nearly $1 from it's intraday high and my thinking changes to, "Dang IT, Dale and Trufflette did it to me again!. I KNEW this would happen!"

all in fun.
