Popeye, in a weird kind of way I'm developing some respect for you. You have lost every single fight (and there have been lots of them) to every single person you have gone to the mat with on every single subject over the last year or so, and you keep coming back for more. Can't figure out whether it's tenaciousness, willingness to keep going until you finally win one, or just unawareness of the savage beating you have been taking.

Say hello to Charlie (RAGOZIN EMPLOYEE) Nebel for me-- I'm a big fan of his. Tell him he sounded great on that tape telling a prospective customer (our private eye) that we don't use observers to keep track of ground loss.

Jake called me a little while ago, and he was telling me what a great job you were doing promoting Ragozin's cause. He especially liked that you brought up, 2 months after the BC, that we picked Starine, and said she was a bet at 15-1 or more, but that she only paid $28. He said he didn't think I could stand much more bad publicity like that.
