Almost perfect

So far, things have gone pretty smoothly while planning this little trip to Omaha. When I started, there were about 20 people on the waiting list, it was expensive just to go down and back for one day, and I personally had a LOT of work to do before being comfortable with the concept of squaring off in a Q&A session with one of the smartest financial minds on the planet.

Now, there are only 2 people on the waiting list since the fence-sitters have all withdrawn, the school allocated an enormous amount of funding for the trip, and I've begun to craft a good list of questions for Mr. Buffett, to ask on March 31st. Plus, the papers have begun to cover the trip, nobody has made any of the planning difficult, and we've even been invited to a reception at the University of Omaha on the 30th, which will be nice.

All in all, I can't complain. Corralling 66 MBAs toward a common goal has been okay so far. This entry better not jinx that...
