It looks like it will be either UBS or Citigroup. As far as our friends go: Bryan Hull got laid off and is looking for a job - he actually got offered to move back to risk but decided not to take the job b/c he thought he had something else in the bag - it turned out that he didn't; Matt Lenhart - is still here and is in the same boat as I am; Tim Boucher - is still here and is handling the liquidation of EES' retail book - he may or may not continue on with EES depending on whether or not another company is willing to take a chance on EES - apparently there are some pkg deals in the works - he is also interviewing with other companies; Chad got laid off and is touring Europe for a month; Gillette got laid off and moved to India to teach English to young Indians (how crazy is she?); and Shanna still has a job at Enron in tax (the gov't always gets there $$) she is also looking for another job. I think that just about covers everything. I am sure that you have talked to Lenny and know his situation. How is Hector holding up? I never hear anything from him - tell him I said hello. BTW, Jason (my bro) get married in February. Keep in touch- Eric -----Original Message----- From: Brian Hoskins [mailto:bthoskins@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 2:03 PM To: Bass, Eric Subject: Re: What's Up Eric, Good to hear from you. Hope you had a good Christmas and New Year's vacation. I just got back to Boston last night. I was in KY until the 30th then went skiing in Colorado (Copper and Winter Park) with some friends from here. The snow wasn't great at Copper, but Winter Park was great and snowed the entire time we were there. It's nice to be back at school, but I'm not looking forward to studying again. Crossword puzzles and mutual fund research sound glorious right now. Finals weren't too bad at all. Normal classes are pretty intense, so there isn't much you can do in the way of preparation except relax and get plenty of sleep. Glad to hear that you still have a job. I've been keeping up with Enron in the papers. What's the latest on the trading division sale? I knew that Citigroup had made a bid, but is anyone else expected to come in? Summer internship interviews are coming up, so I'm sure I'll have plenty to talk about with Enron on my resume. How are all of our friends making out? I got an email from Plauche that he had been laid off. What about Lenhart, Boucher, Chad, and everyone else? My dentist is Brian Kilgore, whom I liked very much. He's out on I-10 and the Beltway. He referred me to Thomas Weiler for the wisdom teeth surgery. I think he's covered under the Enron dental plan, too. Enjoy the downtime while you have it. Say hello to your family for me.
