Being a timid soul, I was totally out of any significant trading position tonite with the exception of a small position in that well known refuge of little old ladies and other conservative investors - AWEB.

I watched it go crazy all the way from 28, finally got in at 36 and change, put in the sell order at above 39 and got out just above 37. By that time I was squeezing the mouse so hard it was squeaking.

Anyway, decided to go long for a very small amount just before the close and have a 2 1/2 point gain so far. Hope it will hold up tomorrow.

Like I learned with BAMM - bought at 12, sold at 12 1/2 the day before it went to 38, in these situations all you can do is suspend disbelief
