Getting long means buying now - expecting the price to go up - and then selling. I think you should be doing this with cattle futures. Right now I down $290,000.00 for the day.

I think they are preparing to file Chapter 11. Yea, I'll bet if I had not let Ma fall out of the truck she would have really bragged on me. I know. Terrible. I do recall her spanking me a long time ago!!! Today is Friday and I am happy. Hey, what is getting short mean? I hear people speaking of this thing all the time but I don't know. Dow is kicking tail today. I saw that mortgage rates rose today. Did you really lose that much money??? I would be climbing upon top of my DWS(dow work station) to jump off. That's my latest saying. I am not making new paragraphs just rambling. Have a good weekend. dg -----Original Message----- From: Chris.Germany@enron.com [mailto:Chris.Germany@enron.com] Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2001 12:13 PM To: WDGERMANYJR@dow.com Subject: RE: Taxes You are a good gradson. I got a quilt out of Dad's closet and took to Ma Monday night. I was only there for 15 min and I bet she asked me 5 times if I had a girlfriend. By the 5th time I think I was telling her I was married with 6 kids. She only metioned you taking her for a ride 20 times. I seemed to have gotten in on the wrong side of NYMX today. I got short around a $5.24 and the offer is now $5.395. Let's see - I've only lost $185,000.00 today. Oh well, its just money I guess. Its funny how unhappy that makes me. I'm gonna go pout now. Later
