Jerry.. people don't know about time zones. I have the fax going at all hours. and I've had to go back to sleep during the day these last few days. We got 330 new order since Saturday.. but we are planning for other help.. I've gotten calls from Fortune, The Working Woman, Women in Finance, WSJ, but things should calm down. My biggest worry is the trading itself. I'm missing some buys because I'm busy, but I've got a 'hot'line to Watley and he usually gets my buy stops and sell limits out nicely. I did get both ACTN and CMVT but missed all the euphoria of the internets except for a double entry with MALL and nice gain on NM.. Priorities are changing and responsibility is setting in, and I'm really looking for 'good' stocks that are good for short term holds so I'm not really analyzing the internet sector except for the stocks like VRSN,VRIO,GNET I find stocks like VRSN, NSOL, MSPG and ELNK are still 'calm' enough for me and I've yet to enter EBAY, COOL or AMZN. People in Switzerland can't be chasing AMZN all day, they prefer a nice 1 week hold. I'm looking at mergers like Provident /Unum and CAMC/AMRN merger and finding lots of value there as well.I've got more resonsibility now I'm still bullish on the STO/JJSC merger and since some new subscribers are asking about longer term holds, I have been testing some of those as well. calling a stock like AMZN might cause subscribers to just forget they have it and get burned. You can't hold a stock like that for a week. the watch lists are going to be in a little more detail and the newsletter will continue as it has been. and no way can I take time off, but I'm setting up a new office and weight training room and I have a personal trainer so I don't get lazy and I've lost 10 pounds so I'm okay. Today is my birthday and I'm 38 years old so I'm happy
