Voltaire, it might not be a bad idea to do a sweep around the sandbox to check for listening devices. I bet they're disguised as molly poop ;-) w2

Welcome V to the rich famous. My only "problem" with the CC writing in a depressed market is that you can short change the maximum potential of the cc when it is down. I'm not sure whether it would be better to sell those weak positions that have limited upward postential, and wait for the rebound to sell the cc to obtain a bigger bang for the buck ATM. I do admit that I have "covered" my butt on several ocassions by using your technique. My thanks again for being an inspiration to us all (is that enough sucking up for one post???). My best to all, now where are the brewski's David

Voltaire, RE: Wall Street Journal Congrats! Do us proud! Hopefully they mention you. What did they say? (I guess I better check the next few posts...) <Clappy quickly searches though his own PMs> <He finds nothing except a few letters from Ringling Bros. Clown School newspaper and a request by United Morons of Americca to join their ekclusive club...> <Clappy picks up a copy of the Wall St. Journal to search for a Voltaire article.> <Within minutes, the stooge is completely entangled in newsprint as he desperately tries to learn how to do that special folding trick with the WSJ.> Those business men on the train make it seem so simple... <Clappy knocks over his glass of orange as he wrestles the newspaper to the ground.> <Like a WWF wrestler, the simpleton jumps up and declares victory as he pins the paper to the mat in a mere 72 seconds.> No newspaper can match the finesse of "Clappy The Atomic Barbarian"!! <He stares down a nervous looking copy of The Washington Post and tells it, "Fear me! Respect me! I am your Master!!!> <Clappy goes out to the mailbox in his bathrobe and slippers and is suddenly leveled as the paperboy flings a split-fingered fastball copy of The USA Today...> -BostonsGlobe
