Alan Oviatt a very pleased with my accomplishments to this point, not only of work well done and successes realized, but also of mistakes made.  I have learned from these mistakes and have become a far better person as a result. I have also bravely endured some self-imposed afflictions, of this I may be most proud, although these are things which will not inspire envy.
