I didn't know it was going to be a hard drive crash. I ran into Johnny Ola in Beverly Hills. He said you and Roth were working on some big dot com deal and that you were being tough on the negotiations. He said there'd be something in it for me if I could help out.

And you believed that story?

He said there'd be something in it for me. On my own.

I've always taken care of you.

You take care of me? You're my kid brother and you take care of me? You ever think about that?

That's the way pop wanted it.

Its not the way I wanted it. I can handle things I'm smaht, not like everyone says I'm smaht and all I get is Fredo, go defrag my computer, Fredo download some songs for Anthony's I-Pod, Fredo go google some mickey mouse night club somewhere.

Is there anything else you can tell me?

That stockbroker you have? He belongs to Roth. He has secretly taken a short position on Apple, while giving you a long position.
