OT or OnT (tequila) ~ I'm not allowed to drink it any more. I have twice since I was disallowed. But that's twice since May of '93. Long story. Something to do with lying prone and drunk on the most dangerous corner (accordin' to the Police) corner in SF and shouting at the top of my lungs for TJJJJJJJ. He came and got me and after I broke his phone and spilled spagetti on his carpet (he is fastidious) he banned me fron tequila. However... if push comes to drink... I can put the shots away. Just call me a cab or make sure it's a short walk.' As to this market stuff, y'all are all over my head. I say it bounces back and forth for awhile. Try and catch the waves. Or deadhead roses. How's that?

You're drinking tequila?? My god, what a woman. I have two alcohol choices :) Chardonnay from the wine rack and chardonnay from Albertson's Grocery, depending on the trading that day. Tonight it's Albertson's. You are not the only one whipsaw'ed. I now own everything in all directions. Oh, excuse me. You have informed me that I have assumed a straddle position, which, contrary to its suggestive imagery, and the possible pain of assuming such at my advanced age, seems to sound very professional. A very macho trading stance. Ahem- yes- I straddled those index options. Going to take the whip to them. Tame that bull. Wrastle that bear.
