Y'know I still have those microsoft calls they are probably worth 2 cents by now. :-) Don't you feel guilty? I thought I told you I closed those around 50 cents. Oh well, I'll trade you my gmst May 85s, I think they are about 2 cents as well.

Hi Jill and All! Hope everyone is feeling a little bit better tonight. I got very depressed with the market Thursday night. Then I saw how far the futures were down Friday morning and decided that I would not turn my computer on until things looked better. I figured if I sat and watched all of the bloodshed that I would be tempted to start selling things that I really did not want to sell. I did not turn on my system until about an hour ago. The only thing I can be really happy about last week is that I was not using any margin! I really feel for those of you that have experienced margin calls in the past week. What a nice comeback by SEBL, JDSU, ETEK, EXDS, CSCO, and EMC. And even a pretty good recovery in QCOM. Does anyone know why GMST did not participate? It looks like it was up for a while today, but closed down over 2. I see the futures are still down a little for tomorrow. I would sure like to see a positive follow up to today's action. Ritch
