Sitting pretty indeed. Yeah, wish I had not sold my puts when I did around $39+...but I did get back in at 38 1/2...and held all through that BS run to $42+. Got more than I had now. Lost a bit with the spread, but knowing me, I would have sold later at $42 anyway. So, I'm better off all things considered. Following my rules may cost me some gains, but it has saved my capital more than once. Disconnected my phone line for a couple hours for construction stuff. Just came back on. What a nice party in the bear cave. Look out below. <H>

LT-- That POS, well, let me be specific, that POS otherwise known as DELL is almost insurmountable. DOW crashes for 237 and DELL is still sitting fairly unscathed. I sure wish people had some patience around here. Patience, you out of your mind? I want my rewards now!!! <GGGGG> Well, ok, I'm happy with my NKE puts. Loving that other POS. On another note, am upset at myself for taking my profit too early with EK. Didn't let the trend be my friend and left some money on the table. Sold my puts too early. Oh, well. Beats the hell out of a losing trade. Some rumor of another hedge fund announcement tomorrow in another chat room. Freaking internet stocks are unbelievably strong. When's someone going to put a pin into those balloons? Any thoughts for tomorrow? Interesting that the tick was around +900 when the Dow was around -220 and still going down near the close today. Anyone got a clue if that indicates anything significant? I've never seen such a discrepancy before. Let's see, any thoughts for rest of the week? October is upon us. That sounds rather ominous to me. mike
