MB>>>>>>Ken, you like Dell. How can you not do a buy write with the 2001 Leaps? Right now, you can buy the stock at $54 and sell the 55 Leaps calls for $22 1/4. You get 33 pct a year if the stock stays flat or goes up. Heck, I am tempted and I HATE Dell. -g-<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Farmer Brown was offered $1000 by Kotex to paint a sign on his barn. Instead, he chose Boston Baked Beans which offered only $500. When asked why, he said," Those Kotex guys are out for blood and I only want to fart around". I'm like Farmer Brown, KISS. Pure vanilla-buy.. sell. 2001 Leaps!!!!!! To me, long term is this afternoon when I wake up from my nap and even then I'll have a hard time remembering why I did what I did this AM. I'm still beating 80% of the fund dumbs..works for me<G>
