family out of my way. can focus on the markets now. big ole gap and crap like i thought. techies holding up decent to fark with my puts. as you know i usaully do the spx but apr were 4 buck spread so i skipped them and bought sox. went with may due to early expy. well after teh fact i check may spx and they are the usual 2 bucks. so long story short, instead of being up 25% im just now getting green. arghhhh. steve
