It's a drawing of a real parasitic disease called elephantiasis, common in the tropics. Also known as filariasis. There is a classic photo of a guy pushing his in a wheelbarrow. The largest on record is an African whose scrotum weighed 154 lbs. and measured almost 2 ft. in diameter. Fortunately, an available drug called diethylcarbamazine is effective in killing the worm larvae and reducing the swelling.

Jill, I have a real newbie question re: CCs. If I was going to write CCs , then it should be entered as 1) sell, 2) call and 3) open covered position. Do you normally let it expire? If you buy back ; is it just 1 ) buy 2 ) call, 3) close position? I am just thinking since QCOM is in this trading range of 132 to 147 to write CCs in my tax sheltered account on the next run. I can not sell puts in a tax sheltered account ( CDN law ).

TIA,

David
