Philip, I made my first options trade in Nov. and had a real case of "beginner's luck". I have to tell myself that's what it was, otherwise I'd probably quite my job to trade full time, if I really thought I knew the ropes. But I don't. BTW can you tell me, when you say you roll your Novembers into Dec. is that just selling and buying or is there some way to trade options by exchange? Thanks for your candor. Regards, Glenn

Philip, After reading your post I decided that options are too risky for me. I would hate to lose a substantial amt. of $$. After your loss did you switch to buying the stock or are you still buying the IOM options? Your job on Wall Street sounds pretty exciting (especially since we've been in a prolonged great bull market that should continue for another few years). That's according to the analysts on Wall Street Week. I'll stick to the stock and add to my position if it drops. (Got the OK from my husband tonight who views the article as nothing more than a buying opportunity). I have alot of confidence in IOM as a co. as many of you on this thread do and have been following the stock with great interest. Hope to meet you all in Vegas at somepoint. SR
