here is something given to me yesterday by a friend: A HOPI ELDER SPEAKS: "You have been telling the people that this is the Eleventh Hour. Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered. Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in right relation? Where is your water? Know your garden. It is time to speak your truth. Create your community. Be good to each other and do not look outside yourself for the leader. Then he clasped his hands together, smiled and said, 'This could be a good time!' There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and swift, that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold on to the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart and will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The elders say we must let go of the shore. Push off into the middle of the river, keep your eyes open, and our heads above the water. And I say, see who is in there with you and celebrate. At this time in history, we are to take nothing personally. Least of all, ourselves. For the moment that we do, our spiritual growth and journey comes to a halt. The time of the lone wolf is over. Gather yourselves! Banish the word struggle from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration. We are the ones we've been waiting for." Oraibi, Arizona Hopi Nation Namaste! Jim

I usually post when I grab 'em - just too busy moving the company this month. I'm one of three IT guys trying to pull the infrastructure together, thus some late-night after-the-fact stress-relief posts. I do believe, however, that I've posted each option trade that I've done this year - no secret fizzles. (No offense taken - you're right about the temptation.) The only options I have open now are the remaining 1/3 of my purchase of ANQJG's. Staying honest with the thread keeps me honest with myself, which is occasionally more brutal than I might wish. <g> Looks like I totally missed the slow BLS cycle I pointed out last month ... from 43ish last month down to 39ish now would have been a great put move. The day I set up to do it, the thing opened outside my range. Oh, well - it's "the one that got away." - Mitch
