	Ron Harris and Alan Handley, both EMP-60, in their pirate garb at Alan’s party

Rockin' Ron Harris hit a pirate-themed party at Alan "Aarrrrrggghhh" Handley's this spring. I came up with so many funny lines about the photo of these two scallywags; however, none are appropriate for printing, so you can use your imagination.

Let's hear it for the ladies who are totally on the move! Jojo Chesney recently wrote to us all about her exciting new job search, and we can't wait to hear where she lands. With a reference to our beloved Professor Brian Uzzi, she encourages all of you to reach out if you know of any good fits for her. Deb Nunes wrote in with her recent change and had this to say: "I am still with Agilent but have a new role working with merger and acquisition integration with a focus on channel integration. I had fun in marketing for two years; however, this is much more my core strength and passion." She also shared her new address: 101 Windalier Ridge, Peachtree City, GA 30269. Please let her know if you make it to Hotlanta! Pat Harris also has a new address: 4219 E. 58th St., Davenport, IA 52807. She started a new legal assignment for Deere in January of this year. Vana Matte has headed out West to where the wind comes sweeping down the plain. Here is her recap: "Friends, I have joined a new company, DTAG (Dollar and Thrifty Automotive Group), as a vice president of portfolio and delivery. Even though it is in Oklahoma, I took this opportunity to enter into an executive role like you all. I started my new job on March 17 (very lucky I might say). Samuel (4) and Michael (1) are doing great and Jaya is doing good. My new address is 2920 E. 97th Place, #2505 Tulsa, OK, 74137."

Last and certainly not least, Tom Himmel let me know that our own Matt Williams was on a recent episode of "60 Minutes." I watched the link and, sure enough, there he was! Al Gore hired Matt's company to write his new global warming marketing campaign. In the segment, they showed Matt explaining the new campaign to Gore. It was really cool to check him out!

I am getting lonely in New Orleans with no visitors, so please come on down for a visit!
