"There are no phones in the Philippines" and "the Cubs will fall out of contention by August first," both on the same board. I can't help myself. You did know that they are moving the Cubs to the Philippines this summer. They'll be renamed the Manilla Folders.

Chris, I am well aware of the microcap "swoon" that has taken my profits the last several years. I told myself I would be out of the market by the end of May. I have taken profits already in several plays, and have pulled the money out of my brokerage accounts. It is burning a hole in my pockets, as it continues to look like a target rich environment. I will not go there though (he says 4/27/99). <g> I have also diversified, and now hold stocks such as DELL, HLTH, COMS, SEEK, etc. Not nearly as fun saying I own 200 or 300 shares of this/that as opposed to 30 or 40k. btw, I came from a family of eight kids. I was always better in division. I have a son and daughter. Good Luck!
