Looks like that idiot rally has begun--we can all reload the puts in the high 60s or low 70s for the next move down. . . Sad thing is, it's probably mostly the little guy that's stepping up to plate to buy right now, thinking they're getting a good stock at a discounted price. . . Oh, well, they should learn to distinguish companies like Intel from dogs like AOL.

I saw somewhere in the many webpages I visited tonite, an article that rated AOL the worst service and IBM the best. I enjoyed this because I switched some time back. The reason I like IBM.net is because it's a clean 56k direct internet access. I have a friend who loves AOL, but I don't like preprogramming which is what AOL provides. For those that like this service AOL is indeed unique. Certainly I should have bought the stock when the original CD appeard in my mail slot when the stock was in the 20s. It seems the stocks that are more public rise to amazing heights. Shorting AOL? It's sort of like going against the ticker tape. With that stock price that should be able to evolve into something more useful.
