Enron's Lay and Skilling are going down!!
I just heard on the news that the lead defense witness Rick Causey has just rolled over on his co-defendants. I haven't seen a link yet but here is one from talk left about Causey in plea bargins:

another from the WaPo:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/12/23/AR2005122301578.html

Apparently they have reached a deal and Causey is now a government witness. On the news his lawyer said, "he will tell the truth"!

5. Yeah you should have heard Causey's lawyer
"he's going to tell the truth, because thats what people deserve and thats what kind of person he is." Yeah, more like he's gonna tell the truth because he doesn't want to do hard time.

8. Hehe.. Not according to Georgie boy
If you remember when the whole Enron thing went down, Bush desperately tried to distance himself from Lay, claiming they were at most acquaintances. I think after the release of the tape where Enron execs were laughing about bilking Granny out of her S.S. checks Bush will need to stay as far away as he can. Hopefully.

9. BWHAHAHA! Yeah, they'll only get three sets of tennis a day!
Oh, it will be terrible for them. I hear Bush is building a new maximum security pool house for Kenny Boy. It'll be very tough on him...the teevee isn't a plasma HDTV, and the tennis courts are cement. Ken will have a very tough six months!
