Meathead Thanks, kills the short play theory. Not a trader. Just a small time investor looking to make enough to cover green fees when I retire about 2007. Company I work for has been bought by Aetna, sold to KKR & Top Management on LBO, then sold to huge German Company. Picked up a little money to invest in the process. If I had been in top management, I would be retired, playing golf, fishing, wood working, playing games on the computer, and traveling. Maybe if I get lucky? :>) Maybe cpq retires me a few years earlier? Life in the fast lane. NW
