BB, I know you're messin' with me now!!! I won't try to match wits with you where the market's concerned. As for my stocks, here is my method: LU - I have actually bought some @85, although I bought the bulk last week. I sell out of the money calls every month though on almost all of my stocks, especially when they are up. I will sell the LU 80 Nov calls @ somewhere around 2 3/8 tomorrow, and not mind a bit if I get called, since I bought most of my LU in the 50s last week. As for CSCO, I bought my first 1000 at 61, then another 1000 at 46 and then 2000 at 43. I sold 1000 at 49, and will hold the rest long-term and probably won't sell calls at all unless the stock goes through the roof. I own 1,200 DELL @ 45, and will sell the Nov 60 calls somewhere around 4 3/8 tomorrow and hope I get a call as well. I have learned some patience from you and this thread, and hope to continue to use it to my benefit. Robbie
