Dax, It is funny that you say that. Early last month I wrote CMGI NOV 115 covered calls for $3 a share while the stock was around $100. I was proud of myself. Then it fell some more and I was leaving for a vacation a little more than a week before option expiration. I was a little nervous about CMGI taking off while I was gone so I checked the premiums and lo and behold they were 5/8. Well, to make a long story short, I bought them all back at 5/8. BOY AM I GLAD I DID!!!! I would have really kicked myself in the butt for missing a 100 point run! I really haven't done my DD on LEAPS and maybe I should. Thanks for the advise! Cheers, Steve
