Hi Jimi, Ido not take it that way. I have an article on how you can buy direct. Really wanted a "I'do that that and it great / good or bad. Thank you for the link. I hope it is so straight up, was hoping to get an experienced confirmation from a doer. Thank you for your extra help. You are very generous with your guidance. Bob

So do you think Fredriksen could take SDRL private and roll it into his recently announce venture to buy distressed assets? Then turn around and go public again later down the road? My guess is his legacy is most important to him at this point. Maybe some deal like Frontline and Frontline 2012. (appears your rain is continuing, hope that is a good thing. Suspect it will bring trouble with it as well) "When he was traveling, he needed three brokers with him -- one recovering from the night before, one on duty and the other preparing for the next day," "He had a tremendous capacity for work."

Hi Jimi, Just a note to "Thank You" for that link. Spent the day looking at it. I like going direct to the treasury and everything being electronic. Thank you so much for having the concern to check and advise me. Yes I intend to build a 10 year ladder. Looks pretty straight forward to get it built with the greater amounts going to the longer term which has a higher rate. There is federal tax on those and since I live in Texas no state tax applies.
