Voltaire,

What to do, what to do, what to do??? I'm trying to sell 500 shares after hours. The news must be true. I saw that China post & immediately went to Waterhouse. When I logged on, the after hours bid was $145 3/8 & the ask was $145 1/2. In a matter of minutes the bid fell to $143 1/2.

Oh well, I didn't get my limit order for $145 1/4 filled.

Thanks for the options advice Tom. I'm new to options, so I'm going to be conservative for now. I'm thinking covered calls on half of my core, starting with the April $180's or $190's. It would mean less cash now, but I would be in position to retire IF I got called away ;-) I can live with that.

Besides, I can always buy those shares again, even if they are a little more expensive.

Like UF says "Q rocks. It's just a matter of time."
