It was good meeting you at FDIC. I'm really looking forward to the new FE handbook.
Take care!

Hope all is well. I will be at FDIC from the 23rd on. My class is in the morning of the 24th. I will be willing to work in the book store for the DVD at any time you wish. Sorry I did not get back sooner. I was waiting for our court date. Of all the days the US Supreme Court is hearing our case on the 22nd on merit based promotions. We have a story in News Week next issue.
Take Care. See you in Indy!
I'll give you a call when we get close...
See ya, hugs toall
Hope all is well, miss ya, give all a hug!
