I've owned OPMRF for about a year now. There is huge potential for this co. I'd put your order in at mkt, and sit back and relax. You quibbled over an 1/8 instead of paying 7 3/4 last week now the stock is asking 8 1/4. Forget the chump-change, in the long run it doesn't matter if you paid a half or a qtr. NE conf call: was very upbeat. As I said, there were and are delays in in getting rigs out of the shipyard. The turnkey bus which has been a drag improved substantially this qtr, the co. citing much better margins. Co. also discussed more buying back of shares once its debt structure is set, and/or aquisitions of other drillers as depressed as their stocks are now. In addition, look for the Shelf IV semi which is currently stacked to have a K announced soon. -Lucretius
