OT Wow, so I take it your not buying LEAP calls? <ggg> I was just telling people at work how becoming an investor that actively trades their own issues seems to turn us into skeptics and opens our eyes to the ugliness and corruption in the world. The average J6P thinks the whole world is free, markets are open and trade without intervention, resources last forever and everything on earth is only here for his amusement. If I go to a mall in Boise, the parking lot is full of 4WD trucks being driven by people that are not in construction, don't live in the boonies and only drive them because they are in fashion. How quickly we forget the gas lines of the 70s and how we were all worried about air pollution a few years back. Food here in the US is all pre-packaged, microwavable. We pay high school drop outs more than teachers to do monkey work. And worse of all, US leadership can not be trusted yet has the highest approval rate in years and has the public believing there is a budget surplus despite having to raise the debt ceiling, lowered deposit data, a huge public debt and a looming medicare deficit. Heck you can come to my party Don, of course the theme will be "the end of the world as we know it". Party activities will be burying gold in the back yard, stock piling food and fuel, and bellying up to the reloader to load extra ammunition. Lee

Don re >>The world's YING-YANG is out of balance, and it would probably require a major world event to correct it<< Can it wait until options expiration this Friday so that I don't get killed on my OEX short straddles??:) Sheesh Don, even you have turned into a Kahunaite -- I knew that I should never have introduced Arik to you!!:) But I also noticed that you said that by Thursday we should have a bounce -- and that suits me fine! Regards

donald: I don't think since I have been following Globex the last six months or so, I have ever seen the NASDAQ 100 down over 40 before. Just looked and it has recovered some to 36. Oh well, I would look for a good day to trade DELL. Per our discussion, I suspect (as do you) there will be a bounce (BTD'ers) early AM today. However, I expect sellers into the bounces. If one can trade the swings there will be money in them there hills...<g> Not a ride for the faint of heart or inexperienced investor! Trader be nimble, trader be quick or trader be loosing his/her @ss..... Regards, LG
