93 The Bo Willsey files continue: Sam Cook is working for a tennis subsidiary of Tecnica in West Lebanon as the American import liaison. Working for Tecnica must have rubbed off—Sam has at last begun skiing. While on a business trip to San Francisco, Sam ran into Bo and his former roommate Gary Frank. Gary has completed his E.E. degree at Stanford and at last contact was preparing to journey to parts unknown. According to Bo, Morty Barret has continued his quest for the"most creative, yet least taxing, means to Utopian love and happiness," all the while simultaneously working through his second year at the University of Texas Law School.

Brian Roberts wrote to me with a slightly more annotated report on the folks who attended Steve Innis's wedding in Cincinnati way back in August. Law students present were Brian Heberlig (Georgetown), BobbySepucha (University of Michigan), JohannaWilliams (Harvard), and Clark Khayat (UPenn). Incidentally, Johanna submitted a memo on "Cameras in the Courtroom" which was forwarded to Judge Lance Ito. Steve"Sparky" Andrews works for Arthur Anderson in Hartford. Josh Green, Dave Katz, and Brian are all in Boston. Josh is at Monitor & Co.; Dave with Bain & Co.; and Brian, having completed his M.B.A. at BU, is with Coopers & Lybrand. Coby Wheeler spent his time in Cincinnati passing out cheese cubes and keg beer. Away from the party scene, Coby is repaying his debt to the U.S. Army (stuck in "Nowhere," Alabama) at Fort Rucker, learning to pilot helicopters. "It's such a great 'job,' I feel guilty when I talk to friends struggling through law school or in their entry-level jobs—but only for a second. I just wanted to write and thank all of you who are working hard to pay for my flying lessons (about $500/hr.) and my salary (considerably less)."

Quoted from the Maine Sunday Telegram: "There are only so many Angus Kings Maine can take at once." So Angus Jr. left Maine after helping his father win the gubernatorial race and is now working for Transportation Secretary Federico Pena. Pena had mailed Angus's father a congratulatory letter for being "reelected governor of Alabama." Nice to see that Washington remains congenial, if not intelligent.

Kamran Pasha has left the stimulatingsounding journal The Institutional Investor in favor of "working for a computer wire service called Knight-Ridder Financial News on Wall Street." Kamran is also freelancing for A. Magazine, an Asian-American quarterly. "Contrary to popular belief, I have not wandered to the end of the Earth and subsequendy fallen off," writes Alex Kaplan from College Park, Md. Instead (see if you can find the difference) he has been working for the Public Interest Research Group (PIRG), "a nonprofit, nonpartisan, grassroots organization which works for social change on public-interest issues." He has spent the past two school years as a campus organizer, last year at Clark University in Worcester, Mass., and this year (and probably next year as well) at the University of Maryland. As of May 1, Alex has been in St. Louis running a summer citizen-campaign office. In his letter, Alex mentioned three times that he doesn't wear a tie to work, so I thought I ought to let you know that he doesn't wear a tie to work. Alex has spent some time with Seth Alpert, who is in his second year at George Washington Med., and Betsy Barth, who works in D.C. for a conservative Jewish policy organization, since he wasn't too far from D.C. and doesn't wear a tie to work.

I don't wear a tie to work either, usually.
