When I got the call telling me I was in the pool, they said that I "was selected to continue in the process". I thought that was interesting wording at the time, I guess I know why now.

I think if it goes past 18 months and we keep our noses clean, we'll be OK. . . . I hope!

I have been told, PD has a history of giving out very conservative time lines to folks in the pool. Maybe this will be the same. Not saying this is intentional, they are just telling us what they are being told. I'm glad they are keeping us in the loop.

Don't get me wrong, I understand the current plan of zero growth in 09. I also know that they change directions very quickly there and while not holding my breath, I'll hope for something to change for the better, soon.

Guess it's a good thing we made those "modifications" to the pool, looks like we'll get to take advantage of them a little longer.

Keep smiling poolies, we'll get there. . . eventually.
