Sheila - Uh, it's been a while since I've studied Catholic theology, but I think you have to be dead to be considered for canonization. I know miracles still play a big role, so if IOM hits 12 by the end of next week, maybe we can get the death thing waived.

Sheila, Hi, good to see your posts today... you have entered the "what the Hell just happened today!" resolution phase in your therapy... Stay on your medicine ( a good stiff single malt Scotch will do just fine) and as Cameron Dory just stated... Don't sweat the small stuff. You and I are in this for the long run... at least we are now, even if we might have had illusions of becoming novice traders sometime after IOM hit 20 post-split.... Ah there goes those dillusions again... more Valium please nurse and watch out for that sharp suppository!! The only happy note is that I hope that our IRAs were converted to Roth IRAs at the new lower price of IOM which makes up about 95% of both of our IRAs. This would definitely make for a much lower tax bite that I had once projected... last week. And to think I actually called Chas. Schwab and asked them to expedite the conversion before the earnings release yesterday... I still haven't heard back from them, but I'll bet the whole office was too busy today just sending out margin calls to do anything toward changes in retirement accounts. Hang in there. Will be looking forward to the new IOM developments later this year and also the Super Bowl ads this weekend. Good Luck to you and the rest of us here on SI... IOM Mel
