RIG/FLC merger: Like the market, I'm not enthused. Falcon is still my biggest holding - about 40%. Luckily I sold covered calls on some. Mar 35's for 2 and Sept 25's (in RO IRA trading account) for 2 this am.

But a little joy just entered my heart. Caymen Islands = low taxes. RIG should hit 70 and maybe more. Wouldn't it be nice if stodgy ole DO would get RIG into a bidding war. They have the cash. I had a hunch that DO wanted Falcon cheap, but said that downturn didn't last long enough.

Can't complain too much - another all time high today.

Good luck all. Winkman
