Dude,
Thanks for the long note. I really like a letter with a bit of substance. Sorry for the delay. It took me a while to respond because I have been buried as usual, and I wanted return the favor. I know the dreariness of London in the winter. Poland is similar. It is primarily that the skies are grey most of the time from November/December through March/April/May. I am currently in my annual desperately waiting for winter to be over funk which kicks in January/February. The winter is not too bad this year and it looks like we may pull out of the dreariness in April, on the early side. Kinga and I are fine. I have got to do something about our status - or she might do it for me. We are more actively working on the issues and the dialogue is pretty good - the Mother in Law topic notwithstanding. But generally life is pretty good. How are your kids doing in the Montessori school? You got me pretty interested when we discussed in London. They are now doing the Montesorri school in Warsaw. I heard it is small but becoming of more interest. Alex is 16 months old so the time is not too far off when he will be a candidate. Tell Julie I am looking forward to learning more about it from her. Did Garibaldi change jobs from Fingers or is the new job Fingers still? Tell him hello. My partner Mack Pogue wants to talk to him about working with Lincoln Property Company. That is great news for Mark. Frankly, I was a bit worried that it would never happen. He needed a success under his belt and the financing is a big step,. The product must still be proven. But regardless, he did the hard part. I saw them at reunion and had a great time. Although there is never enough quality time with everyone. Speaking of reunions, our 20 year high school reunion should be this year. I will probably go. I want to see Rambo fat as a pig. The weird thing about our 10 year (which was pretty fun) was that the girls which looked good in high school mostly (except for Lisa and Michele Morris) got fat and ugly --- and a few sleepers looked really good. Life is strange. Sounds like the Tom and Missy saga will continue until something or someone pops. Do let me know each time you will be in London. I have a lot of reasons to be there and am due for another trip soon. I had a good time last time and would do it again. There is a lot more to do. Are you going back any time soon? Let me know when you are. I am going to DFW on the 18th for a week. I am taking our residential sales team for a week of training with Lincoln's residential team and touring for sale product. We are starting our first residential project this month. Any chance you will be in Fort Worth? We are coming back in April - the week before Easter. Kinga and Alex are not coming this month, but will be coming in April. We probably won't make it to Houston, although we are due for a trip there. I miss Houston. I have had several friends in Poland visit there in recent months and it got me kinda nostalgic. before Texas in April, we are going skiing in Colorado with Mike Gold, maybe Gerber and a few other couples hopefully. We should plan a trip with the Jacobs, Medary's, Worsheh's, Garibaldi's or whomever.. That trip we tool to Colorado 4 or 5 years ago was great. We are there if you guys get one organized. Anough for now. Thanks for the note. Let me know if you have to return to London. Tell Julie, Rob and Tom hello. dude -----Original Message----- From: Richard B Sanders <rsander@ect.enron.com< To: Brian Patterson <brianp@aiglincoln.com< Date: Wednesday, February 02, 2000 1:39 PM Subject: Re: < < <I am in London this week for a series of meetings and an appeal to the House of <Lords of the lawsuit that I was over here for in July(we won $130 USD) What a <dreary place in the winter. I dont have much to report. I have been traveling a <bunch--- in the last 10 days, I have been to Portland, Calgary, LA, St. Louis, <and now London. Julie has held her tongue because of her impending 8 weeks in <Austin this summer. The kids are great. Lots of sibling rivalries going < <I have been biking with Garribaldi and Worscheh in preparation for our <participation in the Houston to Austin bike tour. Garribaldi has a new job with <a couple of big projects in the pipeline. Worscheh finally got his financing on his project so he is pretty chipper these days. They are pregnant again and out <of space in their house. Missy Medary is running for District Court Judge in Corpus Christi. She is running as a Republican in a Democratic stronghold and <her last name is not Perez or Medarcia so her chances are slim. She is hoping <for a George W. Bush coattail effect. Tom was not all that keen on the idea the <last time I talked to him. Don't quote me on this but I think he is worried that <she is a status seeker and that she will have way too much of what she wants if <she is elected( Judges tend to have a lot of people kissing their ass) Rob and Amy are just holding on with their 4 kids. I think Rob's job is going well: they <made one large aquisition at the bottom of the market and commodity prices have <doubled. I haven't seen anyone else,although I did talk to John Scott the other <day. He works for a firm in Dallas that does alot of Enron's work. I laughed at <him when he told me he is trying to get his kids into Country Day. He was always <calling it Country Gay. Tell Kinga I said hi if you are still...er...dating? < < <
