Hi Kemble! RE: "The bet was a steak!! Patrick is just being Patrick...No matter where we go or what we agree to he always changes the bet to his laughing advantage...Just like the time in Gettysburg...He still owes me $40 and the entire diner knows it...Yet, he will deny he bet anything... :o)Best, Kemble" I work with a client on the West Coast. If he hits his financial goal this year, he has asked for a Happy Meal too! I suggest shares of Dell for both of you in lieu of the Happy Meal, or the steak. Shares in Dell are a better choice!
