Can I underwrite a $36 million relationship in five hours or less?



Stay tuned to find out - unless I start throwing stale fruitcake at co-workers and get carted off to the local sanitarium for a well-earned rest.

Have a good day everyone.

Yes... yes I can! It's 12:38 PM Central Standard Time and my draft write-up has been returned to the lender for review before we submit it to the agenda for tomorrow's loan committee.

I think I'm going to get something for lunch now.

 

[oybolshoi]

a $36MM FO?

 

[disgrits]

$36 million.....WOW

I would be a nervous wreck.

 

[Karen Mouse]

Wow! - its ssssssssssllllllllloooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww on here today

Brendas earning millions, Paige is "bunko-ing", I've finished my painting and Andy is stuffing himself silly with 31 cheesecakes (yeah right...we believe you when you tell us you delivered them )

Whats everyone else up to?

$36 million.....WOW

If it were a different company I might be, but this is really just money to fund distributions and stock repurchases - it's a really strong company with strong guarantor support so it was actually pretty easy (all things considered).

Hi Karen! I wish I were earning millions ... then I'd take everyone on a private Disney cruise. Sadly ... I'm earning a pittance.

Everything better on the home front after yesterday's disaster?

Oh, about 15 pounds, I guess that is a little over one stone in the UK.......................

Working...unfortunately, I am very busy after missing work yesterday. So, I can't really DIS, but thought I'd at least say HI!

We watched the Disney special tonight too. I liked it, but I thought the first one Sam Brown did a few years ago was better - this one felt rushed to me. Saying that ... I still cried during the MK fireworks segment. Deep down, beneath all those hard layers of cynicism, there are still soft gooey sections of sentiment.

Anyone know if this is on You Tube? and if it is is there a link?

Hey Jeff, Chris, and Heather,
They have the excursions up on the Disney Website for our little Dismeet in august.

About time...will have to go and have a look now.

I was just checking the prices for those and it wasn't coming up. I figured it was full.

Not planning on going any time soon. After Oct. 09, we'd like to cruise Hawaii. I'm hoping that will be next if we can stay away from Disney long enough.

Why not wait for the 90 day payment date and there's bound to be some cabins free. Need to register with a TA though. It would be great if you joined us on the Repo.

Great pics. How did you get it for $140? was it on closeout? I'm seeing it online right now for around $200. Newegg.com has the w30 for about $255 and they're throwing in a 1 gig SD card with case. Not a bad deal.

It was on special Steve, just before we travelled.

More or less sorted - thank you for asking! Still a teeny bit of paint but not really too noticeable - the child lives to fight another battle

Neil has just poured me a glass of chardonnay - I didnt ask for it,.....but it would be very rude to refuse such a nice gesture

[Karen Mouse]

Ok, Newbie people - tell us about yourselves

Apologies if you've already done so on other pages, but with 93 to check back on I thought I'd just ask again

Name, travelling with, where from, celebrating anything onboard, first cruise or seasoned travellers????....that sort of thing



I'll start...

I'm Karen, hubby is Neil and ds is Ellis age 7 - will be just 9 when we cruise.
I'm a stay at home mom, this is our 2nd cruise and we're from near Birmingham in England. We'll be celebrating Neils 40th Aug 09 so the cruise will be his celebration prezzie, just as mine was this year.

 

[Karen Mouse]

Wow! - I killed the thread - I'm off to do sit-ups as punishment

 

[Dyerneeds]

[Dyerneeds]

[Dyerneeds]

&
Half Day Beach and Jeep in Aruba

What are the rest of you thinking of doing?

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

I was busy spending money all morning/early afternoon. I think I am just about done with my Christmas shopping though As far as I can think of I just have 2 more gift certificates to pick up although I feel like I am forgetting something . Now that our tree is up (half way decorated) I can start wrapping. I just can't bring myself to wrap any gifts until the tree is up and I can wrap in front of the tree.
