I've waited five years, I think I can wait another weekend.
I was not aware of the huge problems during most of the first quarter. I was out of town.
Well, as we built the business in the 1990's, as I said, I enjoyed that.
Well, actually, I had been working as a consultant to former companies of Enron, or predecessor companies of Enron and, so, I joined in 1990 to really start our wholesale merchant business.
Get me as much of that juice as you can.
I would prefer they not know I'm considering selling.
If we don't do this, the books that will get written will be wrong, like the books that have been written so far. I am innocent of all of these charges and I will fight for that for a long time.
So I told Vince he didn't have to worry, we have plenty of cops in (the group).
She is helpful in trying to help me describe to people what I am trying to say.
I have never been told we are going to artificially create anything.
This was about protecting gains, not hiding losses.
We built that into a wholesale business that became, really, one of the largest companies in the United States. We had success in building new markets, opening markets for competition, and that takes a personal toll.
Not that I recall. I don't use the word juice in that context.
It's been a tough six years, it's been a really hard six years.
