Hi Jill: I must be getting old. After burning leaves and limbs all day, I hurt. Feel like I can't get out of my chair without pain and making a moaning noise. Ugh...... On the ITM options premium, there can be a big difference depending on the stock, as you know. For example, compare the EXTR and JDSU ITM June options and you'll see the JDSU ITM calls don't have near the premium as the EXTR ITM ones. That's one reason I have been going back to my old style with JDSU ITM calls again. Reasonable premium, several months out, and my anticipation that JDSU will move up. Simple going for appreciation above what the stock will do, granted with more risk which I accept. Hope you are having a good Saturday in the snow. RR
