"They're great! Times have never been better for me! My total compensation went from $707,000 in 2008 to $977,000 in 2009! A 38.1% increase! And in a recession! I can't wait to see my raises after the recession! I deserved it though because of my stellar work in saving millions by slashing health care. A 1% raise would have been cool too though....ya'll should definitely take it."

Oh, and thanks for all you do!
