Whereas it took the last official runners 30 minutes to cross the starting line last year, this year it will take fewer than 10 minutes for each wave to cross. It is important to note that the anticipated net difference in this method versus previous years' 'one gun, one start' is only about 10 minutes, meaning the last runner will be crossing the starting line this year at 12:40 p.m. as compared to 12:30 p.m. last year.

That said, the playing field for earning credits under our form of measurement is level, and we have continued to be successful and profitable despite the huge shift in business over the past eight years. It's important to note that a large part of the high ratings and profitability of our company lies in our retention. We're saving big dollars every year by retaining our best advisors. In 2005, we retained 100 percent of our top 100 advisors. That's huge in our industry.

When we came back, we had a good talk. It's disappointing to get a loss when you have five kids win and five kids lose. It puts a negative, somber note on the weekend.

When we came into this we were going at it full-bore. We weren't going into it half-hearted. We were intent on at least getting to New York, and from there you can't tell what's going to happen. We need to leave the Garden on a good note this time.

What a fine lesson is conveyed to the mind -- to take no note of time but by its benefits, to watch only for the smiles and neglect the frowns of fate, to compose our lives of bright and gentle moments, turning always to the sunny side of things, and letting the rest slip for our imaginations, unheeded or forgotten! How different from the common art of self-tormenting!

Courts recognized Mr. Baird as suffering from mental illness at the time he committed the murders, and Indiana Supreme Court Justice Ted Boehm recently wrote that Mr. Baird is 'insane in the ordinary sense of the word.'

This note is simply to say that I have now forgotten all campaign grudges. It is just too difficult trying to remember which people I'm supposed to shun.'
