>into the oil business, and where George W. spent his boyhood. He came back
>in 1977, armed with a two-year M.B.A. degree from Harvard University, to try
>to get out from underneath his famous father's shadow. He had drifted
>aimlessly since graduating in 1968 from Yale, the alma mater of both his
>father and grandfather. Most of those lost years were spent partying
>prodigiously in Houston, chasing women and living in the Chateau Dijon
>apartments, which, by all accounts, resembled a fraternity house . . . How
>Bush arrived in Midland with $13,000 and left with $15 million offers an
