Guess what? I'm back!! It's been nearly a year since I participated full time... The bad news: My company laid off nearly half its workforce...and I got nailed. The good news: My statistical consulting company gets my devoted attention. In the last year, I've learned how to trade stocks and options. It was a tough lesson. My poor decisions cut my retirement account in half. I had lost all my cash account and was trading with my line of credit at the bank. Of course, I had a well-paying job to fall back on. Things have turned around considerably. My plays right now are AOL (May 75 calls) and DELL. DELL is my volatility stock. I play the ups and downs, always protecting myself with stops in both directions. DELL is my long call, though. I sold AOL on Tuesday, and bought it back minutes later when I realized it could very well shoot the moon. Up 8 since. Well, that's it. My email is Delbertdog@aol.com Rachel, sorry about excluding you...you weren't a sorry sight like the rest of those guys! <ggg> Todd
