Dave, Actually, I've been using a ton of options, but much fewer straight buys. Leap premiums have gotten so high that I have been loading up on credit spreads in my income accounts. I don't list my trades in those accounts because they are part of a partnership I manage and the trades are for the benefit of the partners only. After all, I couldn't sell it if I gave it away, unless my name was Madonna. Uh, oh, there goes that voyeurism stuff again. <g> I have bought a few puts, but it has been the old faithful, MU, GS, Rambus, etc. I just haven't jumped in on the internuts with straight buys due to premium levels. I like a big bang for my buck, and the internuts are a big bang for a sizable buck, and that isn't my style.
