I was on vacation last week, th= rough Monday. Not a good feeling coming back to a sub $20 stock price and = an SEC inquiry. It never really seemed possible to me that Enron would be = here. Other than concerns for my future, everything is going fine. Things= really are ok, I know I can get a job with AEP if I need to. I actually s= tarted talking to them about it. But on Wednesday, they made a few changes= that I'm not so sure about. Ed Gottlob (recently made VP) was put over th= e origination desk. (I heard that they weren't too pleased with Ducoti and= Bilberry.) With that move, they needed someone else to run the trading de= sk. That person is our fast-talking friend, Carey Metz. That blew me away= . I believe their thought was that he would be the best to manage the fina= ncial risk. Apparently he's made a ton of money since he's been in Columbu= s. He's also going to stay in Columbus with this responsibility. So, this= may be the first move to bring the group up north with the rest of the fam= ily. The home-life is going well. We have 3 year-old soccer every Sat. My love= ly wife signed me up to be the coach. I'm going to get her for that one. = It is fun, though. Those kids are funny. They don't care where the ball g= oes, they just keep kicking (even through the woods). Looking forward to H= alloween. Cole is going to be a policeman, Jake is going to be a jailbird/= prisoner. Cole has already handcuffed Jake a number of times, he loves it.= My vacation last week was very good. It was the first extended vacation = that I have taken where we didn't have traveling and entertainment stuff pl= anned. It was one of the best vacations I have had. We spent 2 days in Sa= n Antonio doing the zoo and easy stuff like that. The rest of the week, we= did things around here (like Children's Museum). Big game coming up this weekend. Do you think your Huskers can pull it off= ? I think OU's going to win it, but it should be a great game. How about the 6,7, or 8th for lunch? Later.
