I love the shorts on this thread. They can write English. Recent reading I can suggest was F.I.A.S.C.O. about derivatives (really funny and enlightening) and The Perfect Storm (about commercial fishing and drowning). You guys might also enjoy the book behind the movie Seven Years in Tibet translated from german, and written back in the 50s. I'm losing money on my January 45 puts so far. Haven't taken the time to check whether its mostly been time premium, intrinsic value, adverse stock price move, or just those evil spreads. Hmmmm. Now I remember why buying options is a sucker's game. -- Carl
