Burj... VRIO - you're making a killing. Options... I had a 3 tons in VRIO... now holding just a quarter... sold all April calls today and half of May's... great day!!! So sorry... I'm a zombie bell on to bell out... locked in and working on impulses. I forgot all about my promise... I apologize... USWB calls are very attractive here...May 35's QWBEG... 3 1/4 - 3 1/2 per contract... it's a gamble as you know... I'm bottom fishing. I'll be adding on strength... May 40 QWBEH is next. Even Jul 35 QWBGG at at 5 1/8 - 5 1/2 looks awfully cheap. The bull/bear action is pretty evident on it today... sellside is heavy and more, buyside is fewer but larger blocks... under accumulation. Whoever is accumulating is buying heavily today and will be upgrading soon like DLJ did on VRIO IMO... I got itchy trigger finger. I was going to wait until Monday to start buying but it's too attractive... I can't pass it up any longer... CAVEAT EMPTOR!!! Risky and speculative... don't do this in your living room... cboe.pcquote.com Do DD on USWB ... lots of covered call action by WinningInvestment.com BusinessWire, Friday, April 09, 1999 at 17:21 by Winning Investment Strategies, Inc.

Burjis; You mentioned how hard it is to watch from work.... When I had a surgical procedure done a couple of years ago, it was one of those where they put you out, but not all the way. And the radiologist had to watch what he was doing on a monitor. I tried my darnedest to get him to talk him into changing the channel from time to time to CNBC. He got a kick out of it. But I remember nothing. And it was one of those BIG market days down. I was flat going into it and very glad to be flat when I got out. My 1k VRIO also paid off today. It went down from my entry, but I held in there knowing it was an up and coming company and very capable of going right back up. These kinds of stocks are the kind where I set wide stops. My aching USWB though. Mary
