Well, I kept getting caught holding the bag. A few weeks ago I bought PTEK at 17. Went to the dentist. Came back. PTEK had hit the 20s and had settled down to the 17s again. This happens so many times I now put a sell in when I buy and kick myself when I don't. Never thought TOM would hit 75 by close and was prepared to hold til tomorrow. The options I mentioned - 4 7/8 ask at 3:00 and 6 1/4 bid at close - that was a neat play I missed. But... never look back on a profit.

I told my wife about this. She told me: "When it comes to fashion - don't analyze - ask me. Tommy is hot." Another rule for my list.

Again, thanks and good luck tomorrow!
