>> Send a PM to Uncle Frank...maybe he's available for you to buy him a pitcher.. Normally I'd be happy to drive 20 miles for a free pitcher, but I'm still recovering from my day with you at Pac Bell Park. What a thrill to be there when Barry hit #60! Did you see the post game interview with him and his 2 year old daughter last night <lol>. duf

Not kidding about the beer or the Faultline. Thanks for the directions as now it looks like I need to go directly there. I would gladly buy Uncle Frank a pitcher, but it looks like I don't have a taker this time. No doubt I'll be back in Silly Valley again though. I guess I have a little time to read some McMillan first. :)

Food and drink recommendations are a lot more interesting than the market just now. Any recommendations for places to eat in Palo Alto? I will be there for a course 9/27 and 28, staying at the Sheraton. I have never been to Palo Alto but I hear The Straits Cafe, which is on El Camino Real like the hotel, is good. straitscafe.com As to options, yes I have been closing out positions. Still short: QCOM Oct 60, sold 8/17 for 8, GTC buy order in at .80. QCOM Oct 65, sold 8/17 for 5.40, GTC buy order at .55. JDSU Sept 7.5, sold 8/21 for .60, already bought most back at .10, GTC order to buy at .10 still in for the rest. Already closed: GLW Nov 15, sold 8/16 for 1.60, bought 9/5 for .35. SEBL Sept 25, sold 8/22 for 1.80, bought 9/5 for .35. CIEN Oct 20, sold 8/17 for 2.55, bought 8/30 for 1.20. My problems: RMBS Sept 5 Call, sold 8/24, for .90 SEBL Nov 30 Put, sold 8/8 for 4.90 (but there is still time on this one).
